Their policy to DEFUND Planned Parenthood IS included in the Big Ugly bill.
So, what now? We MUST kill this bill in the House. Fight like hell. Speak up. Make yourself heard.

So what's next after today's May Day mobilizations?
On June 14, Trump wants tanks in the street and a made-for-TV display of dominance for his birthday.
But real power isn't staged in DC. It rises up everywhere else. That's why we're planning a nationwide day of action to say No Kings. 🧵
