Keep in mind this amazing ruling by the WI Supreme Court only came about due to a big Democratic pickup in 2023 and on April 1st the WI Supreme Court will once again be on the ballot (no it's not a joke).

2. Help Democrats The success of any opposition rests on the opposing party taking power. Next time you want to attack a Democrat for being too much of this or too little of that, realize that you are only helping the GOP. Instead, find a Democrat you support and volunteer for their campaign.

As a child, my dad and I would watch nature documentaries like Blue Planet and Planet Earth. Growing up in the heart of NYC with limited experience in “nature,” my love of the Earth is tied to my love for my dad and our experience watching those documentaries together. #ENVSCOMM25

I just emailed Senator Gillibrand (my senator) to urge her to grow a spine and stand up for American democracy and all her constituents who are fearful of losing our rights. I urge all New Yorkers to do the same.

Any four Republican Senators could stop this at any time simply by threatening to block all action (or even caucus with the Democrats) if Trump doesn't make certain concessions. They won't, but that should be a much bigger story than whether the Democrats are doing everything that *they* can.

Dear Democratic Leaders: here’s a free idea, send members of congress into the buildings where Elons people are and see what they’re doing. Dare them to stop you. Do something

Indivisible is urging people to visit their senators' local offices between now and Thursday to demand that they use every tool—including denying a quorum and blocking unanimous consent—to fight the confirmation of Project 2025 architect Russell Vought for head of OMB docs.google.com/document/d/1...

When I was a Hill staffer in 2009, a Dem trifecta was trying to pass universal healthcare. In response, Senate GOP released a memo detailing all of the tactics they in the minority could use to delay the effort as much as possible. I'm recirculating that 2009 GOP memo here. Take inspiration from it.

Yes. While there are absolutely things Democrats can and must do to slow, obstruct, etc, GOP hold both House and Senate majorities, severely limiting our options. Johnson and Thune are handing over the own keys and relinquishing their own power. Even for the cynics this should be a shock.
