Rep. Jason Smith: "And then you can look at Medicaid cuts -- Medicaid reforms, I should say." Oops.

Today’s joy was brought by a neighbor who shared her peonies.

Joy sometimes comes in the shape of a cappuccino in a pretty mug.

#MothersDay Weekend Happy Mother's Day Two Words HELL YES Oh btw, call your Mom #MomSky

On mental health awareness day, we need to normalize talking about the importance of taking care of mental health. I am proud to talk about my support from my therapist with my kids. #momsky

Walz: So, it's 100 days of just crap.. we’ve got 500 plus till the midterms, but the work has started

I was on the fence about attending the WHCD dinner this year but decided to show up on behalf of the reporters who are working to report on what is going on in this moment. A free press is central to our democratic society and we cannot let it go quietly. It is up to us to fight for our future.

Sundays are a day for reflection. I'm honored to have joined @alsobrooks.senate.gov, @booker.senate.gov, & @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social today to reflect on the moral moment we're in with the Republican budget that wrongly values billionaires and corporations over students and families.

Tonight was a night to celebrate the free press. #momsky

This is what collective action is about. Congrats to the educators of @neatoday.bsky.social and to the @aclu.org for an incredible victory today for all kids. #momsky apnews.com/article/trum...

Wishing you all a moment of peace today. #momsky

I don’t think a better headline could have been written about what happened yesterday. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

The words of MLK Jr. ring true this morning. #momsky www.instagram.com/reel/DH_D5Em...

Today was a day for the people. Where voices of educators, labor, students, parents and communities were raised to take back their country. It’s our America and we can reclaim it. #handsoff #momsky @neatoday.bsky.social @neapresident.bsky.social

Let's go Chicago!!!! Thousands of protesters showed up for the Hands Off! protest! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Today we march—nationwide! Join us and make some good trouble!

The entire permanent staff of the Division of Environmental Health Science and Practice was laid off. This division addresses issues such as asthma and air pollution, climate change and health, childhood lead poisoning, and cancer clusters.

Today’s the day. Just show up and stand with your community. handsoff2025.com #momsky

Musk fired the entire team responsible for managing the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP), which supports approximately 6.2 million people across the U.S.—from Maine to Texas—in paying their heating and cooling bills.

Way to go people of WI! Appreciate you voting for what is right and not letting the monied interests buy your vote. #momsky

Bravo @booker.senate.gov Thank you for saying all the quiet parts out loud. That was leadership, not just history. #momsky

Tonight @booker.senate.gov is doing “everything he can” as he stands up for Americans and slows down the senate. Just like the hummingbird in the 🔥 we cannot sit back and watch. Thank you Senator. #momsky www.politico.com/live-updates...

Taking away collective bargaining rights for teachers working with the children of our military members is not about national security. It is a direct attack on educator rights. #momsky

Glad to be standing with educators standing up for their students this morning. #protectstudents #momsky www.nea.org/about-nea/me...

Not wrong.

@mkusler.bsky.social: “Silencing educators [and] diminishing our public schools [isn't] just about power, it's about money...They want to eliminate the Dept. of Ed to give more tax cuts to billionaires.” Watch and follow our webcast with @meidastouch.com here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=vayA...

Watching the disinformation in the signing ceremony to eliminate the US Department of Education, makes the case for the need to invest in our public schools and students. #momsky

Education is not a business #MomSky #MamàsConPoder

This time for real… #momsky www.nea.org/about-nea/me...

Trump plans to sign an Executive Order to eliminate the department of education tomorrow. But this time they say they are really gonna sign it. (I’ve heard this before)

Today we joined educators, parents, students, administrators, the faith community and others to stand up for public education and to #protectstudents. What are you ready to do?

Today, thousands of educators, students, and families across the country are hosting walk-ins at their local schools to say: stop destroying the Department of Education. Protect our schools. #ProtectStudents. Join the day of action by texting PROTECT to 48744 ⤵️

Happy St Patrick’s Day remembering than chosen family is just as important as blood family. It’s a good day to be Irish!

If they are shutting the US Department of Ed starting tonight for 24 hours, it is hard not to draw parallels to when they did the same thing to USAID a month ago. We must #protectourkids #momsky

This story sums it up: www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/w... #momsky

We will not back down! The Department of Ed provides special ed services, access to higher ed, afterschool and lower class sizes. We must Protect our Students!!

They may paint but they cannot erase. #blacklivesmatter

Today seems like a good day to flag this petition.
