Millions of aging Americans and people with disabilities want to live independently but can’t access the care they need.    Rep. Horsford moderated a panel on expanding home and community-based services so people can age and live with dignity in their own communities.

No one should have to choose between their job and caring for the people they love.    Rep. Pettersen moderated a discussion on building a national paid family and medical leave program so every worker can take time to care for a new child, a sick family member, or themselves.

Aging Americans and people with disabilities deserve the dignity of living safely and comfortably in their own homes.    We need real solutions to bring down costs and make home- and community-based care affordable for the millions of Americans who depend on it.

Care workers hold our communities together, yet too many are underpaid and undervalued.  I moderated a conversation on strengthening the care workforce by improving wages, benefits, and career pathways across child care, home care, and health care.

70% of private-sector workers still don’t have access to paid leave.    Having a baby, caring for a sick parent, or recovering from an illness shouldn’t push families out of their jobs or into debt.

Child care costs are skyrocketing, and families are paying the price.    Rep. Derek Tran led a panel on expanding access to high-quality early childhood education and lowering costs so parents can work while knowing their kids are safe, learning, and thriving.

63 million Americans provide family caregiving, not as a profession, but out of love and responsibility for their families.    They shouldn’t have to do it alone. It’s time to build a system that supports caregivers the way they support the people they love.

Some big news from @caringacross.org ✨ We’re launching our own production label - Give Not Take Media! We’ll be developing film & TV about aging, disability, and care across every genre, helping artists bring their vision to life and seeding new narratives about care. deadline.com/2026/02/ai-j...

A strong piece from @citizencohn.bsky.social @thebulwark.com on what terminating temporary protected status for Haitian immigrants will mean for long-term care and the families who rely on it. www.thebulwark.com/p/trump-atta...

New Yorkers built a movement around the belief that every family should be able to afford a dignified life. Today, as Governor Kathy Hochul and I mark our commitment to universal childcare, we're proving that a movement of the people can transform how government serves the people.

Universal child care is coming to New York.

@bookersquared.bsky.social went to Capitol Hill to ask members of Congress: why don’t they fix the health care affordability crisis? Here's what they had to say. #justfixit

A few weeks ago, my dad was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. I won’t lie—it's been incredibly challenging for me and my family. Now, I’m embarking on a journey to answer the questions so many of us face when it comes to providing care for our loved ones. I hope you’ll join me.

Today, Little Lobbyists honors #AliceWong, a ferocious advocate for disability justice and disability culture-maker who died on November 14 at the age of 51. Alice was a larger-than-life figure in the disability community and a friend to Little Lobbyists 1/🧵

Honored to be included on this year’s @marketwatch.com #MarketWatch25 - a list of 25 people reshaping how we live, work, spend, save & invest. @caringacross.org @domesticworkers.bsky.social www.marketwatch.com/story/the-co...

This video is devastating. Imagine dropping your child off at daycare, only to learn that ICE took a beloved caregiver in front of the children minutes after. Imagine going to work to care for beloved children, only to be ripped away from them and your own family by ICE.

The taking of neighbors in communities around the country is so horrific. And, right here - how can anyone justify this - violently taking a child care teacher out of her classroom? Enraging is too weak a word to describe this. #Momsky activate.

Thinking about Ofelia & Ruben today. A 16 year old with stage 4 cancer and her father & caregiver, kidnapped by ICE when his daughter needs him most. www.chicagotribune.com/2025/10/21/i...

It’s everyday people and everyday acts of courage who will eventually change everything. 7 million of us showed up on Saturday. Let the feeling of it be a reminder. Our care is greater than their cruelty. And let’s keep going. #nokings

Check out my conversation with @pocan.house.gov on the domestic workers movement, care, Medicaid & more. Thank you for having me, Congressman!

“Trump Has Successfully Tanked the American Labor Market:The president’s disastrous tariffs and mass deportation campaign are wrecking the economy” Read: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol... #Trumpflation

Americans are getting squeezed from both sides of the Trump economy. #Trumpflation is driving up costs on one side and job losses all from the chaos of these last nine months on the other. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/09/b...

Moms know when kids try to hide not eating veggies; and know when Trump is trying to hide what’s really happening with our economy: Prices & unemployment are rising. Help spread the truth: *Take a pic of price tag or bill that makes you gasp & share it with #Trumpflation it to help create change.

Trump broke his campaign promises: Hardworking moms and families can't afford the rising costs of housing, healthcare, childcare, food, diapers, eldercare, and utilities, which are getting higher & higher under Trump and Republican leadership. Stop #Trumpflation

"I would actually ask [Speaker Johnson]: 'What's the reason you're cutting Medicaid,' Collins said, ‘and hurting a lot of people in this city?’” www.npr.org/2025/08/28/n...

In DC putting #FamiliesFirst with @seiupres.bsky.social @1199seiu.org and my co-MC Zoe from @littlelobbyists.com !! #SaveMedicaidSaveFamilies

We’re here with our partners at #FamiliesFirst New Jersey to say #CareNotCuts. Cutting Medicaid, care, and food all to serve billionaires is a betrayal of families everywhere.

For 60 years, working families have relied on Medicaid to get care and get by. Congress and the White House just cut it by $1T. @caringacross.org is kicking off a 60-Hour Vigil for Medicaid online & in D.C. - starting TONIGHT at 9PM ET. Join us for 60 hours of community, storytelling, and action.

Thrilled that Katie Bethell is joining @moveon.org as their next executive director! She’s a lifelong fighter for working families and I’m so excited to see how MoveOn will continue to grow and thrive under her leadership. Congratulations, Katie ❤️

Today, MoveOn announces that Katie Bethell, a nationally recognized advocate for working families, is joining us as the next executive director! We welcome the people-first champion taking the helm at a time when President Trump and Republicans are choosing billionaires over everyday people.

Congress and the White House just slashed Medicaid, food stamps & school lunch. They’re using the savings to enrich the rich and separate immigrant families. On July 26th, we're fighting back. Put #FamiliesFirst and find an action in your community: www.familiesfirstnow.org #CareNotCuts

50 Senators just voted to take away healthcare from 17 million Americans. This bill makes it even harder for us to afford basic needs - gutting our care, food assistance, and for what? To enrich the rich and pay for more abuse of immigrants. Whether you’re on Medicaid or not, this impacts all of us.

Tonight at 4:15pm PT / 7:15pm ET! Join @whipkclark.bsky.social @domesticworkers.bsky.social @caringacross.org and our #CareCantWait partners for a Virtual Rally to stop cuts to our care. REGISTER: mobilize.us/ndwa-c3/event/…

Join @caringacross.org @domesticworkers.bsky.social and our #CareCantWait partners for a virtual rally TOMORROW at 7:15 ET with @whipkclark.bsky.social - on stopping the budget bill, defending our immigrant neighbors, and protecting care for our families. www.mobilize.us/ndwa-c3/even...

🚨URGENT🚨 Calling concerned parents and caregivers! We’re hearing reports of ICE raids in parks across west LA targeting nannies. Tomorrow, June 15 at 6PT/8CT/9ET, we’re holding an emergency virtual meeting to share information about how to keep our families, caregivers and children safe.
