See our latest article we reference in the video below! www.americanprogress.org/article/the-... shout out to my coauthors @taotaotasi.bsky.social and @kayeeendra.bsky.social Also a huge shot out to our editorial, digital & campaign teams at CAP that help us take our work to the next level!

thank you for the repost of our report @green2-0.bsky.social !

CAP's expert, Greta Bedekovics, answers the most googled questions about the anti-voter SAVE Act and the SAVE America Act.

Nature loss affects everyone, but the burdens are not equally shared. Our new report highlights who is most impacted by nature deprivation and demands an immediate change in course. https://ampr.gs/4c5k5Rh

It was a pleasure co-authoring our latest piece with @taotaotasi.bsky.social @kayeeendra.bsky.social in time for Black History Month. Please read how the Trump Administration is Intentionally Erasing Black History in America www.americanprogress.org/article/the-...

it's *almost* as if we shouldn't have monopolies ruling every aspect and sector of our lives....

Trump's choices in office and his attacks on diversity and equal opportunity have represented a direct assault on the Black middle class' ability to maintain economic stability. CAP's William Roberts and @mariamrashidphd.bsky.social explain:

"The status quo was never built for us to be successful." Jocelyn Frye of @npwf.bsky.social on how we can build an inclusive economy that works for Black communities. Watch the full event recording: www.americanprogress.org/events/fight...

Nearly 22 million people nationwide access drinking water from lead service lines (LSLs). Lead exposure is dangerous in any amount & is particularly harmful for kids. www.americanprogress.org/article/how-...

Lead causes severe & long-term adverse health effects (e.g., brain & organ development, behavioral health). Lead poisoning is not a political game & Republicans are gambling with the health of children & communities across America ⬇️⬇️⬇️ @jillrose.bsky.social @mariamrashidphd.bsky.social

Subjecting children to lead poisoning is not a political game. Republicans are gambling with the health of communities across America. Another generation of children should not be affected by lead in water. @mariamrashidphd.bsky.social @haileygibbs.bsky.social @jillrose.bsky.social ⬇️

We should anticipate even more drastic changes to NIH following RFK Jr.’s confirmation as HHS Secretary—changes that undermine scientific integrity, innovation, and public trust. www.americanprogress.org/article/how-...

I am really frustrated that the press is discussing the destruction of USAID as something that has happened rather than an illegal action that will likely be undone in two weeks when courts tell the world that it was illegal.

I can’t say I’m not surprised. I am disappointed by the blatant disregard for our nations lack of accountability and ability to stand up to someone who is actively pining people against each other and pushing racism. www.nytimes.com/athletic/611...

The federal funding freezes have thrown our country into chaos, leaving us questioning how to understand the gravity of this situation. W/this in mind, our fantastic researchers @americanprogress.bsky.social created tables that show the number of people by state who would be harmed by funding cuts.

I have been so upset the past few days. I was a USAID fellow in 2015. This funding changes the trajectory of people’s lives. This funding saves lives & prevents death & the spread of disease. Closing USAID will not only hurt Americans, it will have catastrophic rippling effects across the globe.

Ask yourselves why the GOP is hellbent on dismantling diversity, equity, inclusion (DEI) efforts in our country? What do these offices accomplish across sectors in our country? What data do they collect and disseminate? DEi isn’t just a hiring practice as the administration wants you to believe.

Wouldn’t it be so annoying if [email protected] was flooded with actual truth about the importance of equal opportunity and fighting discrimination? Instead of ratting out folks following the law like Trump intends. So annoying for them.

Contrary to what the major media outlets are reporting, there are some billion $$$ corporations who are standing up against the GOP's anti-DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) rhetoric. This information is vital to know, as we hold power to push back on ideologies that we disagree w/as Americans.

Jersey proud!

“We need leaders not in love with money but in love with justice. Not in love with publicity but in love with humanity.” -Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Never more fitting than today as we witness the world’s richest families sitting directly behind the new president on this Inauguration Day.

Easy to talk about making government colorblind in a room almost entirely full of white people.

Big Tech billionaires had a front row seat at Trump's inauguration. They were seated in front of Trump's own cabinet. Tells you everything you need to know.

It’s SCOTUS day! I, like many trans advocates and allies, will be doing my best to share updates throughout oral arguments today. Before we get started, a few quick reminders from a trans person who has worked to protect access to this care for nearly 5 years - that’s me, hi ✌🏻💜 (1/5)

These are some of the people who are exposing and working to stop the worst parts of Project 2025. Who else should be on this list? bsky.app/starter-pack...

AOC comes out swinging against a Nancy Mace for targeting Sarah McBride. "They're doing this so that Nancy Mace can ... fundraise off an email. They're not doing this to protect people. They're endangering women, they're endangering girls of all kinds. And everybody should reject it. It's gross."

the thing to note about the Elon “Department of Government Efficiency” thing is that the Government Accountability Office already exists and serves this basic function. the problem is that it’s largely serious and nonpartisan. they’re trying to build their own hyper-ideological version of it.

Don't go thinking Project 2025 is a thing of the past. Its worst ideas live on in its worst proponents. Read "Project 2025’s Distortion of Civil Rights Law Threatens Americans With Legalized Discrimination" from @mariamrashidphd.bsky.social and @americanprogress.bsky.social
