You. Yes, you.
Right where you are, with what you have, to the best of your ability.
Now.
You.

If we wait for “them” or “her” or “him” to do it, we’ll be farther down the slippery slope.
Do something.
ANYthing in the direction of the world you want to see.

This vote was to start the process of the cuts. It WILL come back for a final vote.

There are some chances to slow or potentially stop it. Need constant pressure on GOP

Focus on GOP swing seats & key committees. Energy & Commerce is where the Medicaid fight will go down. Ways&Means for tax fight.

Please explain what just happened. Is there no way to stop this w the reconciliation to be used by GOP to get around the filibuster? Are we sunk?

Send letters to your Rep right now, then call 202-224-3121. Don't let them gut Medicaid to give billionaires tax cuts.

Let's try and send 1,000 letters in the next hour. Ready, go!
Tell Congress: Don't cut Medicare, Medicaid, or Social Security

Leadership is doubling down, but GOP members are getting nervous about the budget’s extreme unpopularity.

You can call your Representative now at 202-224-3121.
Looks like tomorrow will bring votes on a Republican plan to fund tax cuts for the rich by slashing Medicaid.

So this is a great time to contact your Member of Congress.

Call your reps every day. The extremists will out shout the sane people if we don’t take consistent action.

Current American foreign policy is about draining power from the US and its allies, thereby creating atmospherics in which Donald Trump feels good and Elon Musk converts lost state capacity into personal profit. The weakness, in other words, is the point.

Fuck yeah! This is the message we need most right now!

What do you love?
What are you for?
What is your vision?

Just because we cannot fix everything, does not mean it is not worth it to try to fix something.

Imagine if everyone everywhere, did what they could, with what they have, where they are.

Would that not be a revolution?
