After the last few months, we shouldn’t be surprised by the moral abyss that is ICE. With a daily quota to fill, masked and anonymous ICE agents have been terrorizing people up and down the nation: smashing into workplaces, homes, colleges, and wegotthiscovered.com/news/were-ju...

The "big, ugly bill" is going to fire 20,000 health care workers in Kentucky. That's 20,000 people who won't be able to pay rent, afford groceries or care for their families. This isn't something folks can "get over." Raise your voice and demand to stop this harmful bill.

The Supreme Court just released its opinion in the birthright citizenship case. Here’s the big takeaway: the Court tightened the rules on when a single judge can issue a nationwide injunction, instead of deciding the fate of birthright citizenship. That’s still a big problem.

On point. And we know how the Supreme Court loves class actions.

Today's ruling on birthright citizenship allows presidents to do what judges have ruled illegal, writes @pemalevy.bsky.social. No matter how brazenly unconstitutional a presidential act may be, the courts cannot protect anyone who does not personally sue or is unable to join a class action lawsuit.

Trump said that he would focus on deporting violent criminals. The facts? He deported a 4yo American child with cancer, a gay makeup artist seeking asylum, and a landscaper and father to three U.S. Marines. This must stop now.

“Last month, a woman showed up to a hospital in PA with a barely breathing baby—only to find the hospital closed. Why? The hospital’s owner sent millions to private equity investors instead of investing in healthcare. Now patients and workers are paying the price.” We must put PEOPLE OVER PROFITS!

Millions of working people rely on Medicaid. If they are laid off, spending all day every day looking for a job will not be good enough to meet new work requirements. If they take too long to find a new job--which most people will, when unemployment is high--they'll lose their health care. 1/x

We’ve talked about “Alligator Alcatraz” before. Here are more details. Starting the first week of July, when South Florida’s heat index regularly hits 100°F, they plan to detain up to 5,000 people in tents. No A/C. No real shelter. Just suffocating heat, choking humidity, and swarms of mosquitoes.
