Medicaid has been gutted by HB 1 & “trigger laws” exist in many states (which trigger opting out of Medicaid expansion if federal reimbursement dips below a certain number), this is something to think seriously about, & “trigger” laws should be removed. #DisabilityJustice #DisabilitySky 💜

As a #Disability led & focused nonprofit, we oppose #AssistedSuicide, but 2 states--Illinois & New York sent such bills to their governors to support or oppose. We need a veto from @govpritzker.illinois.gov. Please do 1 of the simple action items here. #DisabilityJustice #DisabilitySky 💜

ICE enforcement is a mass disabling event If you have a medical emergency in ICE custody, there’s a chance you will simply “disappear” Or you could end up like Randall Alberto Gamboa Esquivel who was deported to Costa Rica in a persistent vegetative state. He died soon after.

But his emails…

As Virgina Guiffre said, this shouldn’t be about how he died, but how he lived, & from multiple accounts, he destroyed the lives of countless girls & young women. We lost Virgina in April. That’s more important than how a predator died, imho. #BelieveSurvivors #Epstein

One of Jeffrey Epstein’s companions submitted a drawing in the book Maxwell put together that indicates people knew about the abuse & says, “What a great country.” It’s America’s turn to do the right thing for #Survivors. 💜 #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles #MeToo #Epstein #GhislaineMaxwell #Resist

Please help oppose SB 1950, a dangerous bill that would harm the #disability community & which was opposed by the disability rights orgs & community. The largest national minority shouldn’t go unheard. This bill greatly hurts efforts towards #DisabilityJustice. #AssistedSuicide #DisabilitySky 💜 👇

Around 3 AM on 11/1, Illinois passed an assisted suicide bill, SB 1950. We need support to ask @jbpritzker.bsky.social to veto it. #Disability orgs & advocates all opposed the bill but were unheard. You can read more about it on our blog. #AssistedSuicide #DisabilityJustice 💜 Take action here👇

There’s also only so far you can “stretch” food stamps that, on average, provide $187/month to recipients. That’s less than $7 a day. Food prices are also on the rise, & it’s a little late to suddenly tell ppl who may have spent their previous balances to “stretch” more. #SNAP #Resist #FoodStamps

@10minutesaday.bsky.social & @diyabled.bsky.social are putting together a zine that covers voting tips for the #disability community. If you’re a disabled #artist & would like to help illustrate it, please get in touch below! #DisabilityJustice #VoteThemOut 💜💙👇👇👇

Seeing a severe lack of masks at the #NoKings rallies. Highly disappointing. I was hoping to possibly make it out for the next one, but it'll be flu season plus covid, measles, etc. Looks like we're still struggling on the "all people" portion of "Until all people are free, no one is." #disability

Agricultural secretary says that SNAP benefits will run out before November. These are the consequences of the Senate GOP and Donald Trump not negotiating for millions of people who depend on the ACA. They simply don’t care if people don’t get their healthcare or STARVE! rollcall.com/2025/10/16/u...

It’s painfully clear. By refusing to swear in Adelita Grijalva, Speaker Johnson’s covering up Jeffrey Epstein’s global sex-trafficking ring. Hey GOP: Bring back the House, cancel your health care cuts, reopen the government and release the files.

Bc climate change only affects those states, so red states will be just fine, since NONE of them could possibly border or breathe the same air as blue ones. 🙄 #Resist #BlueCrew #TrumpIsAFascist PS-These states should sue bc it’s discrimination. The courts are still open.

Portland is not war ravaged. Chicago doesn’t need to be “saved”. Undocumented immigrants do not qualify for Medicaid. People should not have to “prove they matter” to get healthcare. ICE should not be allowed to cover their faces. This shutdown is being done to save healthcare.

This is a #GOPShutdown engineered by the fascist in chief. The Democrats can't do anything besides what they're doing, & we must focus on changing control of Congress, state races, etc., rather than blaming a minority party. #Resist #BlueCrew #GOPLies

Here's what would happen if Massie got the 218th vote (likely) in the House via a discharge petition. (Spoiler alert: It's unlikely rn to survive in the Senate, so that should be the focal point.) How a discharge petition, which Massie is using to #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles #ReleaseTheFiles #Resist

President Jimmy Carter campaigned on NATIONAL HEALTH INSURANCE! Ronald Reagan snickered in the background in the 1980 Presidential debates when President Carter mentions it. A truly wonderful President with the THICKEST skin. Charitable, modest & compassionate. May President Carter rest in Peace.🙏💜

Obviously, a lot of the right's rhetoric on Kirk is a pretext to attack the left, but some of it also shows how desperate they are to avoid talking about the economy, Epstein, or Russia attacking Poland. They're going to push this as hard as they can.

Reading is how I ended up with a scholarship to college, & it’s never yet ceased to amaze me, in terms of what books have to teach us.
