We believe healthcare is a right for every American. But starting today, millions of people will be notified that they are being priced out of their insurance thanks to Republican policies. Enough is enough. The GOP may shut down the government, but we will stand tall for YOU.

Trump and Republicans spread lies and scapegoat immigrants to distract you from how they are picking your pockets. Do not be fooled.

Trump and Congressional Republicans aren’t trying to hide it 😡 They want to jam through a spending bill they claim maintains current funding levels, but will claw back approved funds later through a sneaky process called rescissions – all while enacting their Project 2025 agenda. #TrumpsShutdown

A HUGE thanks to the 200+ groups who signed our letter to @schumer.senate.gov urging him to reject any funding bill without a ban on partisan rescissions – and to everyone who demanded Congress hold the line. Let’s keep the pressure on to ensure this language makes it into law!

NEW: Congressional Democrats released their counter-proposal to Trump’s dangerous spending cuts, and they’ve included a rescissions ban that would stop them! This infographic ⬇️ shows why this is important, because Republicans in Congress could use this sneaky process to claw back approved funding.

"Nearly two-thirds of survey participants said the high price of food was the main culprit of food insecurity in the country." It doesn't need to be this way. Allowing corporations to profit off of people's suffering is a policy choice.

Some good news on this Wednesday night 👇🥳 THANK YOU to @delauro.house.gov and @murray.senate.gov for introducing this bill!

This is what democracy looks like! A people united will never be defeated. We want federal forces out of DC NOW! #WeAreAllDC #FreeDC

The day started with tragedy with political violence in MN and instead of being scared, neighbors SHOWED UP to stand together at No Kings Twin Cities. We packed the Capitol Mall all the way to the Cathedral. Estimate 80,000+ right now. So proud of our state. #nokings #indivisible

More than five million Americans in over 2,100 towns and cities joined us today to say we don't do kings in this country. Thank you for making it clear that we won't be ruled by fear.

Speaking for us all here on 5th Ave and 41st. #NoKings

Join us in the streets tomorrow for No Kings Day!

There is too much to say about all the horrific news, so I'll just say that I hope you join me in finding a No King's Day protest near you this Saturday. We must send a clear message of opposition to authoritarianism and militarization being promoted by this administration.

If a US Senator is not safe from being handcuffed and detained for free speech, none of us are safe.

This Saturday, we're joining with people all across the country for the No Kings Day of Action, where we'll peacefully stand up to attacks on our food, water, climate, communities and democracy. Find an event near you and join us! www.mobilize.us/nokings/map/

Deploying the National Guard to CA – over the objection of the Governor and elected officials – has nothing to do with public safety and everything to do with intimidation and federal control. It sets a terrible precedent for the future, and we stand in solidarity with the people of Los Angeles.

This is what Trump and his Republican Congress are doing.

Join the @foodandwater.bsky.social phone bank to try to stop this cruel budget reconciliation bill that will make $300 billion in cuts to SNAP and $800 billion to Medicaid to give tax cuts to those earning over $500,000/year.

Help us reach our #EarthDay fundraising goal!

Just a few of the thousands of people in Allentown PA demanding that Rep. Ryan Mackenzie oppose Trump and Musk’s dangerous cuts. We’re fighting because our health, jobs, and communities are on the line! #HandsOff2025

Thousands of people in Des Moines, IA marching to tell Rep. Zach Nunn, Trump and Musk: #HandsOff! We will fight to protect our water, food, healthcare, schools, and neighbors.

Hundreds of people in Allentown, PA to tell Rep. Ryan Mackenzie #HandsOff! We will fight to protect our water, food, healthcare, schools, and neighbors.

RFK Jr.'s HHS cuts include the entire LIHEAP team. Read that again. The entire team.    This leaves no federal staff to help the more than 5 million households that rely on affordable heating and cooling.    Without staff, the program is at risk of grindingto a halt.

LIHEAP is as non partisan as it comes and keeps the elderly from being cold in the winter. Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine) is one of its more prominent supporters.

Physicians, nurses, and fellow public health researchers: Congress is pondering dangerous cuts to healthcare, nutrition assistance, and funding for safe food and water. Please join me in signing this letter from healthcare and public health professionals to oppose these cuts! fwwat.ch/health-letter

NWS staff cuts are now directly reducing the quality of forecasts. Without weather balloons, we have no direct measurements of the upper atmosphere — and we can't make predictions as effectively.

As our Executive Director Wenonah Hauter says, “Schumer has lost the confidence of a critical mass of well-meaning people around the country. He must step down from his leadership role in the Senate now.” @commondreams.org

🚨 BREAKING 🚨 The Senate just passed the dirty Republican spending bill, giving Musk and Trump free rein to dismantle, loot and privatize critical programs that protect our food, water, health and climate.

There’s still time, regardless of what Sen Schumer wants to do: call your senator and tell them to stand up and block the dirty House spending bill. 1-877-247-1820

Democrats unwillingness to stand up for Congress's constitutional right to prevent Trump from unilaterally shutting down social security offices or firing veterans is craven. If we’re afraid of blame, we need to get better at persuasion—not rolling over.

A YES on cloture is a YES for the bill. Do not let anyone play games with you.

Please call now! These Senators especially need calls: Schumer, Peters, Durbin, Schatz, King, Shaheen, Cortez Masto and Gillibrand!

NOW: Almost 100 people are outside the home of @schumer.senate.gov calling on him to vote NO on cloture and NO on the disastrous Trump-Musk budget

@freedcproject.bsky.social gathering at Hart atrium Friday morning at 10 am for one last push - pass it on actionnetwork.org/events/senat...

No fight. No strategy. No leadership. Call your senator and tell them to block the House spending bill, even if Minority Leader Schumer won’t. 1-877-247-1820

The horrific GOP budget cuts are not settled law! Senate Dems can and must do so much more to stand up for basic democracy, starting with refusing to vote for this awful bill. Add your voice: fwwat.ch/3Fs5lha

📱 CALLS NEEDED 📱 NOW is the time to call your Senators and urge them to filibuster to block the dirty House spending bill, which cuts funding for safe food and clean water programs.

Yes! It’s terrible. Please use your power to stop it. Will you vote no on cloture for the dirty House spending bill or are you planning to allow it to pass with a simple majority?

Will you oppose the dirty House spending bill and vote no on cloture? Or do you plan on letting that terrible bill pass with a simple majority?

We have to flood the Senate Democrats with calls TODAY to urge them to not allow the horrific House spending bill to move forward! Call 1-877-247-1820 to reach your Senator!

It should be very clear to every Senate Democrat that any vote for Cloture will also be considered a vote for the bill. People aren’t going to be tricked with procedural games. They know exactly what is going on. Defend Medicaid. Vote NO on Cloture. NO on bill.

🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave. Tell them: 1. Vote NO on Cloture AND 2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill. Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it. TODAY is the showdown. 🤳🏽: (202) 224-3121

We. Are. Already. In. A. Government. Shutdown. Proud that over 99% of House Democrats voted against the awful GOP continuing resolution.

"Musk and Trump are in the middle of executing an illegal partial government shutdown. Democrats must not vote for any spending bill that doesn’t address this,” said Mary Grant of @foodandwater.bsky.social. Take action now to urge @democrats.senate.gov to vote NO on the GOP Spending Bill!
