The party of family values will also be responsible for closing rural hospitals if they cut Medicaid and Medicare. It would take only 7 Republicans to step up. Where are you Rs?

The thing to do, it seems to me, is to prepare yourself so you can be a rainbow in somebody else's cloud. Somebody who may not look like you. May not call God the same name you call God-if they call God at all. I may not dance your dances or speak your language. But be a blessing ... Maya Angelou

Cutting FDIC, EAP, and NOAA now? Personally I have always enjoyed having clean air and water, getting forecasts of impending storms and having my bank account safe. The federal employees doing these jobs instead of representing waste or fraud are keeping us (and our funds) safe.

Please consider sharing this. I think it would be great if many people used this tool (showing it's something we shouldn't cut).

Colorado's Rep Brittany Pettersen (D) flew cross-country with her one-month-old to vote against the GOP budget tonight. Dems ended up one vote short. Pettersen was part of an unsuccessful bipartisan push to allow new mothers to vote remotely. #copolitics

Senator Chris Murphy said yesterday that 24% of Americans get their healthcare from Medicaid, and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services say that 2/3 of nursing home patients receive Medicaid. Not only will this be hard on seniors and their families...it will also close nursing homes.

Senate Republicans just blocked an effort to end Trump’s sham energy “emergency,” siding with corporate polluters over you, everyday Americans. This order guts clean air & water safeguards, hikes utility bills, & stalls renewable energy—all to benefit billionaires & fossil fuel execs bit.ly/4kjP6Cs

Despite the cuts in the IRA renewable energy is growing because it is cleaner and getting cheaper all the time. Let's stop burning stuff and build things that make power over many years.

The federal government is not saving money or being more efficient. It is helping billionaires by cutting back IRS employees who do audits.

On Reddit, federal employees shared their experience. One wrote: “The thing that I can’t get over is that the actual richest man in the world directed my f**king firing. I make $50K a year and work to keep drinking water safe. The richest man in the world decided that was an expense too great”

Firing experienced employees results in business loss. Employees with less experience (or a new inexperienced employee) does the work less well. The federal government is wasting our money by firing experienced people who are among other things keeping our air and water clean and our food safe.

May I be a guard for those who need protection, a guide for those on the path, a boat, a raft, a bridge for those who wish to cross the flood. May I be a lamp in the darkness, a resting place for the weary …. until all beings are freed from sorrow and all are awakened. - Shantideva

But it’s something about the spirit of justice that raises up like a war horse.That horse that stands with its back sunk in and hears that bell-I like to say the ‘bell of freedom.’ And all of a sudden, it becomes straight, and the back becomes stiff. And you become determined all over again.
