Urge your Representative to support The Economic Dignity For All Agenda. Send a letter to them today!

Democrats shut down the government in order to stall Medicaid funding cuts; the administration opposed state-funded SNAP benefits, leveraging Americans' hunger to further their agenda.

Elon Musk could get a trillion-dollar payout while 42 million Americans watched their turn into SNAP benefits political pawns during the government shutdown. That’s not a system, that’s a moral collapse.

The administration is about to take healthcare from millions of Americans. Our basic needs are becoming more and more exclusive while the rich get richer. #whenisenoughenough

This Friday, we are starting our monthly Advocate Spotlight! This will be a time to give space to those grassroots and participant advocates ❤️ Faye has been a champion of the movement for 6 years now and we couldn't be happier to spotlight her 👏👏

Millions of Americans are about to lose healthcare, and millions more will have to pay more. This is a robbery of one of our fundamental rights as humans. Share your favorite graphics! #I'veGotTheReceipts

Direct Action Friday! Join Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman and urge your representatives to support the Guaranteed Income Pilot Program Act! It's time for new, bold solutions. WE ARE FED UP.

It's direct action Friday! Send a letter to your electeds about the harm of AI development. AI is disrupting our jobs and lives, its time we disrupt it. Urge your electeds to continue fighting AI. actionnetwork.org/letters/ai-d...

The Administration claims it can’t issue November #SNAP benefits, but that’s false. It has both the legal authority and funds to deliver food assistance to 40 million people and must act now to prevent families from going hungry. More from @sharonparrott.bsky.social: www.cbpp.org/press/statem...

It absolutely should! Take a moment to write to your electeds urging them to bring this to the table, the Senate Committee on Health, Labor, Education, and Pensions are holding AI hearings now actionnetwork.org/letters/ai-d...

In this series, we’ll explore the questions that we’re not asking… and should be. 💰Why are we not prioritizing universal basic income?💰 Like, comment, follow, & share. Also - check out (order? 😁) my book! www.amazon.com/dp/B0FPLZW8P6 #series #questions #UBI #economics #ifthenbook

The real amazing part of this chart is how subprime is completely fabricated. 2020 and 2021 being the wildly lowest is due to financial support during COVID. Basic income would completely remove this metric as it would report 0 forever after.

I don’t often agree with Elon Musk, but I fear that he may be right when he says, “AI and robots will replace all jobs.” So what happens to workers who have no jobs and no income? AI & robotics must benefit all of humanity, not just billionaires.

We need universal basic income paid for by a.i. since it was trained off our society and all the information that people have created. all the money should go back to the people.And everybody should get a universal basic income.So that they can survive and then work on top of that.If they want.

Vocal is down so here's the Medium post of what it was like being on basic income conormichaeljohnmatthews.medium.com/3-years-on-b...

That's right! We are fighting for freedom from exploitation.

There’s an energetic path to that dream! Currently the country has over 200 guaranteed income pilot programs demonstrating its reality & @income-movement.bsky.social is organizing with pilot participants and grassroots that are fighting to make it a reality. ❤️

As our Summer Series comes to a close next week, it's time to reflect on the topics we've covered, starting with some grounding quotes.

Yes, this is exactly what we want our money to be used for while we can't afford rent. 😀

"UBI is not radical. It’s a tool we already know how to deploy. With revenue from taxing wealth above $30 million, we could take a major step toward funding a national basic income that ensures dignity, health, and freedom." - Scott Ellis on Times time.com/7325632/univ...
