Millions marched. Now we're getting in formation. While Trump, Musk, and Republicans try to make their billionaire blueprint a reality, the people say NO. Not today. And tbh not ever. Join the mass call. April 16th. Sign up: wfpus.org/HandsOffCall

Donald Trump and Marco Rubio are targeting and abducting lawful residents like Mahmoud Khalil for their political beliefs. Mahmoud deserves to be home with his family, not caged — without any charges — in a detention center more than a thousand miles from his home.

this is the story of working people. the rich get richer, the rest of us are kept scrambling to make ends meet THIS WEEK ONLY: donate anything to get a no one likes billionaires sticker and help us keep winning against billionaires like Elon Musk (sorry): wfpus.org/NoBillionaires

Our @workingfamilies.org colleague Sarah Johnson points out how Democrats in blue states are failing to meet the moment. This echoes a recent story where @theprospect.bsky.social ranked #RI & Governor McKee last among blue states. prospect.org/politics/202... www.commondreams.org/opinion/blue...

Why are all these people protesting, and why is our money, healthcare, and retirement getting f***ed with?? And what the f*** can we do about it????

It's gun bill night in House Judiciary. Hearing is kicking off.

Tesla is suing Wisconsin after the state blocked it from opening dealerships there. Now, Elon Musk is spending millions to elect one particular judge to the Wisconsin Supreme Court who could hear Tesla’s case.

“When 6:00 p.m. hit, it was packed and heated inside—so packed that halfway through, the hearing had to be paused due to fire code. But that didn’t stop the frustration from flowing; so many were fed up with the cost of their electric bills.”

Supporting the RIBLIA Caucus, including: • raising the minimum wage • taxing the 1% • just-cause eviction protections • ending payday lending • prohibiting inquiry into immigration status for prospective tenants • utility billing reforms

Targeting and abducting a legal U.S. resident for political speech is straight out of the authoritarian playbook. Mahmoud Khalil should be home with his wife. Trump and Musk want to see what they can get away with. That’s why we can’t be quiet in the face of their power grab.

The RI Energy monopoly is trying to pull a fast one—blaming green energy while their shareholders drain #RI families' budgets. The truth? Cut Wall Street's selfish profits, not clean energy! Join us Mon. 5:30pm in Warwick for 6pm PUC hearing: www.mobilize.us/indivisibler...

Our utility rates in RI are way too high. Rhode Island energy’s parent company PPL made $888 MILLION last year and the CEO brought home $12M. And they want to gouge us even more. Enough is enough. Join us on Monday Mar 10 ⤵️ www.mobilize.us/mobilize/eve...

Looking for a dose of hope? Let us show you some ways the Working Families Party has been building power from the ground up. 🧵

In Rhode Island, Democrats joined @ri.workingfamilies.org to announce a "Working Families Agenda" — policies to lower costs for working people and protect against the Trump administration. It includes raising wages, expanding affordable childcare access, fighting Medicaid cuts, and more.

We don’t need billionaires. We need - affordable housing - universal healthcare - living wages - clean & reliable public transit - affordable childcare Imagine if the rewards of our hard work went back into our communities instead of being hoarded by a handful at the top.

Amy Mullen, NEARI: "Quality education requires adequate funding, and this legislation provides a path forward without burdening middle and working-class families.” #RevenueForRI steveahlquist.substack.com/p/millionair...

This is ridiculous. Utility bills are sky high while 💰RI Energy💰 makes millions in profits off of RI families. Join us at the next #RI Public Utilities Commission meeting to demand a permanent 10% rate cut—NOW! Mar. 10, 6pm 89 Jefferson Blvd, Warwick Optional RSVP: www.mobilize.us/indivisibler...
