A shipping crisis in the Strait of Hormuz is not just an oil story. It could become a prescription access story too. Generic drugs make up over 90% of U.S. prescriptions, & recent reporting warns prolonged disruption could raise costs & trigger delays.

Illness is not a moral failure. Medical debt is not a sign of poor character. But choosing war over healthcare โ cutting Medicaid while Americans go broke getting sick? That IS a failure. A moral one.

People are skipping meals. Giving up on having children. Letting the dream of a home go โ all because they canโt afford to get sick. While Americans suffer, Trump & Republicans cut Medicaid to fund a war no one wanted. ๐

Sen. Warnock is right: Republicans found $200 billion for a war in Iran overnight. But for 25 million uninsured Americans? Nothing. No urgency. No bill. No vote. They fund what they value. And they just told you exactly what that is.

$200 billion. 3 months. Enough to fund healthcare for every American who needs it โ for years. Instead? Trumpโs war gets it. This is a choice by Trump ๏ผ Republicans. Remember that.

Xavier Becerra addresses single-payer healthcare in California in a way I can appreciate. He talks about the logistics of making it happen. He says it wonโt be easy, but it can be done. I respect that. Too many politicians make it sound easy, then drop it once theyโre elected. Becerra gets it.

Tell Congress to Say No to Warrantless AI Mass Surveillance
The War on Terror-era legislation that authorized decades of civil liberties-eroding mass surveillance is set to expire on April 19. Congress should let it die. Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) was passed in 2008 as a counterterrorism measure, but has a long history of abuse from the federal government, especially when it comes to surveillance. Congress has a choice to make: Will they greenlight warrantless mass surveillance, or hold the line and reject any effort to move forward without serious privacy guardrails? FISA as it is currently written: Allows warrantless backdoor surveillance of people in and out of the country Offers little to no protections against the administration targeting critics, activists, religious minorities, or communities of color Actively chills our freedoms of speech and association Two years ago, this reauthorization legislation sailed through Congress with bipartisan support. That canโt happen again. Let your Members of Congress know you expect them to reject reauthorization unless it includes significant reforms to protect our civil liberties against this authoritarian regime.

Pick up the phone. Call your members of Congress right now at 202-224-3121 and tell them exactly what you need. It takes 2 minutes. Do it today. Then share this with everyone in your circle. The more, the better. Tag a friend who needs to make this call too. It makes a difference!
