We can't say democrats aren't doing anything anymore. The amount of genuine risk for his life shows and insane amount of bravery. I wish him well and hope he comes back safe and with Kilmar

Once a child is born in "pro-life" Texas, it's pretty much on its own: Texas is almost dead last in the U.S. for children's healthcare, beating out only Mississippi. Podcast: bit.ly/3Z0lr7x ⁠https://www.dallasobserver.com/news/texas-has-second-worth-healthcare-for-children-study-says-22078769

First, the Trump admin sabotaged the US’s ability to respond to emergencies like the earthquake in Myanmar by gutting USAID. Now it's laid off the aid team just sent there. As survivors face heavy rains, the US must act now, not abandon people in crisis. www.reuters.com/world/us/usa...

Over 3 million undergraduate students in the US are also parents—nearly 1 in 5 students. Access to affordable childcare can be the difference for them to complete a degree program or not. My bill makes Pell Grants entirely tax-free and expands eligibility to cover childcare costs. 👇

Republican legislators are entertaining proposals to sap hundreds of millions of dollars from Dallas Area Rapid Transit and thwart the voter-approved expansion of public transportation in Austin known as Project Connect.

I replicated the first 50 countries reciprocal “tariffs” with a simple calculation. There’s no way they used the formula they said they did. open.substack.com/pub/kaburban...

BREAKING: An 8-year-old girl with measles died Thursday morning, the second measles-related death in an ongoing outbreak that has infected nearly 500 Texans since January. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. plans to visit Texas Sunday. bit.ly/3FVa8I1

BREAKING: DOGE targets census. This data anonymized and shared to researchers at the census bloc level (like the size of a neighborhood). We can imagine what would happen when this DHS has personally identifiable data on all non-citizens.

So here's the thing about these small grants. They actually do a lot to make sure we're not competing with, you know, slave labor. And promoting gender equity in the workplace means helping women get into decent jobs so they can support their families and not feel the need to migrate here!

From the Daily Dispatch: SB-37 would allow GOP appointees over state universities to ensure that “courses do not endorse specific public policies, ideologies or legislation” - by crushing any viewpoint with which they disagree. Pod: bit.ly/3Z0lr7x Story: tinyurl.com/3u947cay

Unique to America, our health care system is designed not to make people well, but to make CEOs & wealthy stockholders incredibly rich. The result: We have the highest infant mortality rate of any wealthy country on earth. How cruel, how immoral is that? We need Medicare for All.

A new analysis reveals that Trump’s tax plan will “actively transfer money from low-income people to the top 0.1% of income earners.” 🔗: www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

You probably can guess that the Trump tax plan benefits the extremely rich at the expense of the rest of us, especially the poor. The Yale Budget Lab agrees: #EconSky s2.washingtonpost.com/camp-rw/?tra...

Indivisible Centex is hosting a town hall & protest in Belton on March 22nd @ 1PM. We’ve invited Rep John Carter, but we know that he won’t show. Show up and show out! 🇺🇸 facebook.com/events/s/no-...

We must continue to fight back. The Alien Enemies Act is a wartime measure that has left a very dark stain on our nation’s history. This takes us down a dangerous road and the courts must continue to hold this Administration accountable. apnews.com/article/trum...

Amazing Oxfam Sisters on the Planet and Action Network Activists advocated for tax policies that benefit women and girls this #IWD. Folks learned more about the tax fight and how we can take action to rewrite our failed tax system so that it can fight inequality—not fuel it.

Outrageous that Texas is the only state in the nation where Trump continues to wrongfully freeze refugee funding. With @repcasar.bsky.social and @repjuliejohnson.bsky.social, I'm demanding the Admin release the $42M Texas nonprofit community service groups are owed & upon which many refugees rely.

Rep. John Larson delivered a fiery speech blasting Republicans for blocking Elon Musk from testifying to Congress and enabling the Trump administration to go after Social Security. #Resist #WeThePeople #UnitedWeStand

There’s a swell of activism in this country and we are feeding off of it. Thank you to these Montana Indivisibles for showing what our movement stands for.

Marco Rubio’s announcement that he has cut 83% of #USAID activities means children and families will no longer have the food, clean water, healthcare, education and much more that they need to survive and build their futures.

Join us for our Texas Town hall! All are invited. Please share far and wide!

No more meeting incivility with civility. #standup #fight #belikeAl #unite #medicare #medicaid

I joined colleagues to highlight the many lies and imaginary numbers in Trump’s address. For example, Social Security makes payments to 72 million Americans each year, and less than 1% of those payments have ever been found to be improper (some were too small!). Watch my full speech:

NOW: Protesters outside the federal Immigration court building in Dallas are calling for James Rodden, an ICE attorney we identified as the operator of an anonymous racist X account, to be fired.

Someone dap 🤜🤛 her up for me, please?

When Trump effectively shuts down the NLRB, corporate bosses can illegally fire workers who are trying to form a union and flagrantly violate labor laws. Today, I am reintroducing the PRO Act to strengthen unions, and restore power and legal rights to workers.

“Prosecuting people for migration is big business.” Our top story: Over the past four years, the Texas Legislature has allocated more than $11 billion to fund the sprawling tentacles of the Operation Lone Star.

“How do you think the president was prepared to issue all these executive orders?” Rose said in an interview with the Tennessee publication the Williamson Scene. “How do you think they were prepared to make all of these appointments in such quick succession after he got into office? Project 2025.”

Your organizing is making the GOP nervous. It’s leading them to lash out. If they were secure, they wouldn’t care — it’s their weakness lashing out. And we love to see it. Let’s keep it up. Find a local group: indivisible.org/groups Or let us help: indivisibleproject.formstack.com/forms/organi...

Our farmers will lose billions in USAID cuts. His tariffs will not make up the shortfall, because most of the produce coming in does not compete with local produce. People aren't going to buy more Idaho potatoes because Mexican bananas cost more. + labor shortages. The fuckening continues.

Quick photo inside US. Rep John Carter's office of the 31st district. My first step into getting involved. Had a very interesting talk with Mr. Matthew Keys, who is a staunch believer in personal responsibility. We did not agree on a lot but we both agreed on 1 thing: Public Education is PARAMOUNT.

Meet Trump's new best friend, Vladimir Putin. At the heart of Putin’s rule are two forces: corruption & violence. In Putin's Russia, there is no freedom of speech. Protests are violently suppressed. Dissidents are murdered. And the billionaire oligarchs become even richer.

Putin can’t believe his luck. Here is Kremlin spokesman Dmitri Peskov on Trump: “The new administration is fast changing all foreign policy configurations…This coincides with our vision in many ways.” Trump now backs dictatorship, not democracy. We cannot allow that to stand.
