Unbelievable but believable.

BREAKING: Our team @democracyforward.org and co-counsel just WON another court order to secure #SNAP. Judge finds Trump admin didn’t comply with prior order. FULL PAYMENTS must be paid across nation by tomorrow.

President Trump’s political games are delaying people’s ability to access essential nutrition. But our team is working around the clock – and is back in court today – to demand accountability. Thank you, @msnbc.com's @anacabrera.bsky.social, for covering our efforts.

We should not need to go to court to force the Trump-Vance administration to provide food that all people are entitled to in this country. But here we are, back in court to demand that the administration acts consistent with the judge’s order.

This is immoral. See you in court.

It shouldn’t take a court order to force our President to provide essential nutrition that Congress has made clear needs to be provided. But since that is what it takes, we will continue to use the courts to protect the rights of people.

@skyeperryman.bsky.social is a real one. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾🙏🏿

If the Trump admin appeals this order, it will show all of America that it is doubling down on depriving 40+ million people of food. We have secured this win for the American people, SNAP will be available, and we will continue to block efforts to play politics w people’s lives @democracyforward.org

BREAKING: Federal court just GRANTED our court order to block Trump admin from shutting down SNAP. Order also issued in state AG case. Hope millions can breathe a sigh of relief. Incredible work to @democracyforward.org and our co-counsel.

The Trump-Vance admin’s outright refusal to fund SNAP for millions, including children & senior citizens, is immoral & unlawful. Turning hunger into a political weapon is not governing – it’s cruelty. So we sued on behalf of the broadest coalition yet.

Our team just secured another court order blocking President Trump’s unlawful attempts to fire civil servants during the government shutdown. This is a major blow to the Trump-Vance admin’s attempts to make the Project 2025 playbook a reality.

The Trump-Vance admin's is using people’s basic needs as pawns. This is unlawful and immoral. President Trump, we'll see you in court.

The demand for our work has only increased as some firms have stepped back. Since the start of the Trump-Vance admin, we've proudly represented hundreds of brave plaintiffs and filed hundreds of lawsuits to challenge unlawful policies.

When a government secretly pulls funding from programs that prevent gun violence, support survivors of violence, and strengthen public safety, it’s not efficiency — it’s an abuse of power. The public deserves to know the truth, and we will use every legal tool available to get it.

This is a marathon not a sprint.We still have many who are fighting this in the courts on our behalf but they require our support. I support Marc Elias at Democracy Docket and Skye Perryman with Democracy Forward. They are doing so much to defend our democracy!

We're living through a moment when the foundations of our democracy are being tested. But we, the people, are pushing back. I was honored to join @govpritzker.illinois.gov for a conversation on how the American people have come together to build community and protect our democracy.

Today, our CEO @skyeperryman.bsky.social will join @govpritzker.illinois.gov for an important conversation on how the American people have come together to protect against the Trump-Vance admin's escalating threats to their lives and rights, and how to navigate the fight ahead. WATCH 👇

It’s not enough that President Trump bullied federal prosecutors to drop multiple cases against him despite significant evidence, now, he’s concocted a scheme where he would leave taxpayers with a bill to pay for them. Americans are struggling to make ends meet.

@democracyforward.org’s Rob Shriver testified this week regarding the harms to the American people that occur when the President seeks to fire civil servants. Our team has won two court orders to prevent the firings during the shut down. And we aren’t backing down.

Every American should be concerned about President Trump's corrupt proposal to pay himself $230M of taxpayer dollars. @democracyforward.org launched an investigation into any and all communications surrounding this unlawful idea.

Our CEO @skyeperryman.bsky.social joined @weeknightmsnbc.bsky.social to discuss the unlawful targeting of Letitia James, Jack Smith, and other perceived political enemies of the President.

We are not intimidated. All Americans should be asking: What is the Trump-Vance admin hiding? Why do they want Jack Smith to be interrogated in private rather than hold a public hearing? Why is a US Attorney who has not been confirmed by the Senate allowed to bring charges against AG James?

Our nation was founded on the ability of people to believe as they choose, and worship or not worship as they choose. The Trump-Vance admin is endangering these freedoms with a retributive agenda that relies on false narratives and inaccessible assertions. So we’ll see them in court.

We cannot normalize the President’s attempts to militarize our cities, our homes. @democracyforward.org’s Yenisey & I joined Tennessee elected officials to discuss our case challenging the unlawful deployment of the National Guard in Memphis. We'll block this abuse of power in court.

Earlier this month, I joined the @americanbar.org to discuss @democracyforward.org's work to protect the Constitution and the American people. The Trump-Vance admin believes the rule of law doesn’t apply to them. We’re proving otherwise in court.

ICYMI: @samosterhout.bsky.social went live with President and CEO of Democracy Forward @skyeperryman.bsky.social to discuss her organization’s model: Americans need to reclaim both levers of power: the legal and the communal. Subscribe for free to watch now! www.lincolnsquare.media/p/the-fight-...

Yet again, we’re seeing that when confronted by the people in court, the Trump-Vance admin backs off. But partial retreats aren't enough. We've stopped President Trump's abuses before, and we'll do it again until this entire policy is struck down. democracyforward.org/updates/h1b-...

The deployment of the National Guard in Memphis is a gross overreach of constitutional authority. Americans deserve leaders who respect the rule of law. Our team @democracyforward.org is in court fighting back against this unlawful and harmful use of military force.

The American people are pushing back in courtrooms and in communities and the President is losing support because the administration is not governing for people. “In this country, the people are supreme.” - CEO @skyeperryman.bsky.social on @cnn.com with Fredricka Whitfield.

In this country, the power lies with the people. And as we’ve seen at No Kings protests across the country — we, the people, are united against autocracy.

Protest is patriotic.

Late Friday night for @democracyforward.org — our team & partners filed suit to challenge the unlawful deployment of the military in Memphis & secured another order protecting civil servants from firings during the shut down. ✨👏✨Today, w/ our family and friends, we joyfully say No Kings. 🇺🇸❤️ #NoKings

Yet again, President Trump and his allies are engaged in an unlawful and harmful use of military force in another American city. The people of Tennessee deserve leaders who respect the limits of their office and the rule of law. That's what we're fighting for in court.

Power belongs to the people. See you all on Saturday (we’ll be the ones in yellow). 🔗Find an event near you → NoKings.org

Democracy Forward’s President and CEO Skye Perryman (she/her) talks to Inside Philanthropy about using the courts to defend democracy. Sarah Henry reports: tinyurl.com/32uhm29a #DemocracyForward #DefendDemocracy #RuleOfLaw #CivilRights #LegalResistance #Litigation #Nonprofits #Accountability

Aaron Parnas sits down for an exclusive interview with Democracy Forward, Skye Perryman, to discuss updates on legal actions they have taken against the Trump administration, what those litigations look like in the face of the shutdown, what comes next with open cases… youtube.com/watch?v=PjN3...

We at @democracyforward.org believe it is vital to be in solidarity with our neighbors in peacefully resisting autocracy. Join us on Oct 18 for the No Kings Day of Action to remind the Trump-Vance admin that America has no king, and power belongs to the people.

We beat back the administration's unlawful firing of civil servants in court yesterday. And I would take @democracyforward.org's record to the bank any day. There are no kings in America, and together We, the People, will continue to make it so.

The public has a right to know when our government rewrites the rules to make mass arrests and deny people due process—especially inside the courtrooms meant to deliver justice. Transparency is the first safeguard against abuse of power. We’re in court to demand accountability.

@democracyforward.org showing how it’s done… We just secured a court order with co-counsel BLOCKING Pres. Trump’s attempts to fire federal workers during the shutdown.

Transparency isn’t optional — it’s essential. Gov actions are threatening access to Social Security for millions, so we’re in court to demand accountability and ensure the public knows what’s happening behind closed doors.

Courage is contagious. Principles over politics.

"The Trump-Vance administration is more concerned about sowing chaos than in protecting and caring for the American people." - @skyeperryman.bsky.social on @weeknightmsnbc.bsky.social

My message to the White House this morning: It's time to get the government working for people.

Our team is in court every day on behalf of people who rely on the government to deliver services that keep them safe. That’s why we’re suing the Trump-Vance admin for unlawful attempts to fire federal workers. Last night, the court set a hearing for next week before the RIFs go into effect.

President Trump and Elon Musk spent $15 billion to fire 200,000+ federal workers, and now 750,000 more are furloughed without pay. This was never about efficiency – and we’re making sure everyone knows it.

Our team at @democracyforward.org is in court every day on behalf of the American people who rely on the government to deliver services that keep them safe. That’s why we’re suing the Trump-Vance admin for unlawful attempts to fire federal workers.

Access to housing and health care is not a political tool for the Trump-Vance admin to exploit. Proud of our @democracyforward.org team for blocking the admin from stripping millions in grants that support survivors of domestic & sexual violence, LGBTQI+ youth & unhoused communities.

We will see you in court.

It is important to know that there are many groups fighting for democracy. Skye Perryman of democracy forward has a coalition of businesses, lawyers, and other groups who are filing lawsuits on behalf of America and democracy. Thank you Skye Perryman for fighting for Americans!
