Starting this week, Republicans are going to try to ram through their tax cuts for billionaires at the expense of our kids and seniors.
Call your members of Congress now to demand that they preserve Medicaid, Medicaid expansion, and no requirements for work to qualify.

Remember when Trump and MAGA influencers falsely claimed the Biden Administration was doing nothing during Hurricane Helene and other storms, despite FEMA providing hundreds of millions in aid?
Remember their lies about FEMA funds being diverted, which sowed distrust in recovery efforts?

Only the private sector can stop the privatization of NOAA
There’s been lots of talk about dismantling, downsizing, or privatizing the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Will businesses that depend on NOAA's work speak up before it’s too late?
