Way to lead the caucus @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social!! We need to see you use your leaders’ prerogative with a “filibuster-like” turn at the mic. Do not just let #MAGAFascists steal our healthcare and hunger aid just to hand out trillions in #BillionaireTaxCuts!

If you care about Medicaid, I need your help. These kids are the best chance we have of saving Medicaid.

Families are on the way to DC. We need to cover van rentals and hotel rooms. I will not, I will NOT, waste your money or time.

Can you help get this donation link in front of your people?
We have @littlelobbyists.com families on the way to Washington DC right now, they'll be on the House-side of the Capitol tomorrow. We're going to make them see us before they vote to kill disabled children.

If you can help cover the costs of this urgent action:

this fight is not over. gladly donated to help little lobbyists get in front of congress tomorrow. please, if you can, do the same.
This bill has NOT passed out of Congress, it has to go back to the House.

We're getting @littlelobbyists.com families to Washington DC tonight, so they can be on the House-side tomorrow. We need to cover van and hotel costs, if you can contribute:

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social REALLY hope this rumor is not true. the last thing on your mind should be rolling over. do your job & fight like hell.
Ok. Rumor is Jeffries is telling his committees in the House to roll over — to use no real parliamentary measures to slow down the bill, even though the committees want to do this.

Words are great, but actions are what matters and D leaders are falling short.

It’s disgusting that Republicans are trying to jam the largest cut to Medicaid in history down the throats of the American people.

hey @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social - really hope you’re brushing up on all the things you can do to slow down the bill. see below if you need some advice. we are counting on you to do everything you can
If the reconciliation bill gets delayed to after the 4th, it is less likely to pass.

Dem Senators used Senate rules to force a reading of the bill. That used up 15 hours. Good for them!

Will @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social push members to use the House rules to slow the bill?
Or will he roll over?

Joined by Chris for this week’s #MedicaidMinute to honor the anniversary of the Olmstead #SCOTUS opinion.

It is so important that we not only #ProtectMedicaid —but also keep fighting for more funding for home and community-based care so that disabled people can live with dignity.

and my brother as well.
we are watching.
My brother Chris is autistic & supported by #Medicaid

The independence he has here & his services are at risk.

House Republicans who vote yes today on a budget resolution that includes AT LEAST $880 billion in Medicaid cuts—we and the 80 million people on Medicaid are watching.

If you’re a constituent of David Valadao, Ken Calvert, or Young Kim you have more power to fight for Medicaid by making a phone call than 99% of Californians.

Call tonight, then call again tomorrow before 4PM

time to take some much needed advice on how to start fighting back and defend the people & country you swore to protect. please read cheri’s thread & implement this asap @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @schumer.senate.gov @petebuttigieg.bsky.social @aoc.bsky.social @lizcheney.bsky.social
We're in a crisis of historical proportions.
Dems need to act like it. For a change.
This is the most important thread I've ever written. If Pete said yes and Dem Leadership agreed to assess each Dem congressional and committee office to fund this, we'd only need a Dem Senator to sacrifice a "hideaway" office in the Capitol to serve as the press briefing room.
