One monarch caterpillar ready to pupate and another ready to eclose. I understand the controversy around "raising" monarchs, but they are outside and until more people plant milkweed (their only source of food) I feel the need to do whatever it takes to guarantee survival.

Rural Michiganders will be affected by the Billionaire First Budget as hospitals and clinics in rural areas will be forced to close after they lose the Medicaid funding they rely on to keep their doors open.
Keep calling your representatives. It does matter.

According to John James, Americans spoke and asked for this madness. Only 31% of voters voted for Trump. 36% did not vote at all. The American people did not vote for this. There is no mandate. We are entering dark times.

Phone banked with UAW Region 1 this morning. We're telling congressional district 10 folks to contact John James and demand he publicly oppose cuts to Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid to fund more billionaire tax breaks!

@sanders.senate.gov allegedly drew over 9,000 people to his Fight Oligarchy rally at Lincoln High School in Warren, MI. That's amazing but not surprising. Bernie won Michigan because his messaging resonated and still resonates with fed up Michiganders. Democrats need to understand this.

Michigan is a border state and so ICE do have a presence, especially in SW Detroit. If you feel the need to "do something" about everything going on lately, learn the rights of undocumented immigrants. Even if you don't live in a border state, it's good to know.
