🚨 BREAKING: 11 young people were arrested after Schumer locked the doors on us—we showed him how to fight, but he couldn’t even face us. His cowardly deal gives Musk the keys to our government while working people suffer. If he won’t fight for us, he’s unfit to lead. Step up or step aside.

This DHS spokesman is incredibly bad at his job. Pressed repeatedly to name a single thing that Mr. Khalil is alleged to have done to “support terrorism,” he repeatedly refuses to say anything specific and just says versions of “everybody knows what he did.”

BREAKING: DOJ takes Trump's effort to end birthright citizenship to SCOTUS, asking the justices to limit three existing nationwide injunctions to the plaintiffs in the cases — a move that would allow the admin to start implementing an EO that several courts have said is plainly unconstitutional.

On March 8, DHS agents abducted Mahmoud Khalil, a US permanent resident & student activist for Palestinian rights, from his New York apartment. Mahmoud was targeted for his political speech & activism in support of Palestinian freedom and for an end to the Israeli genocide of Palestinians in Gaza.

We will not stand idly by: Free Mahmoud Khalil! Jewish Voice for Peace demands the Trump administration release Palestinian student Mahmoud Khalil from ICE detention. The detention of Mahmoud is further proof that we are on the brink of a full takeover by a repressive, authoritarian regime.

This is unacceptable. However, Advanced Placement classes in public education aren’t the only vehicle to teach our youth about colonization, racist U.S. policies, etc. Our organizing should also be educating our constituencies about U.S. history from “the people’s” perspective.

If the CFPB didn't decide last year that its mission required it to regulate Big Tech's entry into banking, it wouldn't be shut down today. We know that because Republicans in Congress are working now to make sure the agency can never go after Big Tech. prospect.org/power/2025-0...

Vanguard, world’s #1 investor in fossil fuels, is about to have a shareholder meeting. It's an especially opaque company & this shareholder meeting is a rare occurrence – the last time Vanguard had one was in 2017. So, today, we showed up in prayerful action near Vanguard CEO Salim Ramji’s home.

Climate change and migration are often two sides of the same coin. Climate impacts often drive migration, while immigration policy must consider #climatechange. Understanding this intersection is crucial for effective climate and immigration policy.

Facts matter: Immigrants aren't just a vibrant part of our society; they're also major contributors to our economy. Let's make things clear this #TaxDay. Immigrants pay 31% of total taxes, spanning federal, state & local, while representing only 13.5% of the population. 📈💵 #ImmigrantsAreEssential
