The Senate is still considering the largest sell-off of public lands in U.S. history. If sold, these special places — and the natural heritage they represent — will be lost forever. Please keep urging your senators to oppose the sell-off of public lands. ➡️ biodiv.us/handsoffpubl...

NO. Americans won’t just ‘get over it’ - they’ll face pain, higher costs and gut wrenching choices about their health care. We all need to stand up against this bill.

Some good news 🎉 Federal workers retain the right to collective bargaining Losing collective bargaining would’ve made it easier to fire feds and block unions from challenging Trump administrative moves in court. A big win for federal workers—and for the rest of us who rely on them

It's time we start seriously contemplating a #GeneralStrike. Do more than entertain the thought. Talk about it more. With more people. Discuss what that looks like. How we do it. Get behind the goals. @magixarc.bsky.social has some compelling thoughts. marygeddry.substack.com/p/you-cant-s...

Trump and his minions have been caught in quite a few lies today…about everything from Iran strikes to the big ugly bill…will roll through as many as I can. And talk about why he may have been so cranky. Will also talk about how Stephen Miller is making money off of his cruel immigration policies.

We are posting this placard at all of our offices and asking our union contract farms to post as well. We encourage our friends to put up similar placards at their business as immigration agents do not have the right to go on private property without permission.

America is no longer the land of the free by my reasoning. "No free man is to be arrested, or imprisoned, or disseised, or outlawed, or exiled, or in any other way ruined, nor will we go against him or send against him, except by the lawful judgment of his peers or by the law of the land." #Pinks💗

Oh btw- our subject matter experts on this topic were tossed out. Regulations preventing employers from forcing you to work in dangerous conditions are at risk of becoming non-existent. They want to exploit you for everything you're worth- tell them no. Call your reps and tell them to #SaveNIOSH!

The American evangelical right is absolutely shitting themselves with excitement over this. There is nothing on planet earth that they want more then a destabilized Middle East at war to trigger the rapture. This is 100% fact even though it sounds ridiculous.

While we wait for the Supreme Court to rule in a critical redistricting case from Louisiana, this is what the GOP is up to in Texas and Ohio. Remember the GOP's plan is to make it harder for you to vote and easier for them to cheat.
