The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person. The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person. People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives. And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

Democrats won't create the lasting change or tap into the rage of the majority with Schumer and Jeffries in the lead. Centrists won't get it done, no matter how the establishment wills it. The country has radically shifted. The last 10 years is your evidence.

Right, but my point is that whether or not Chicago is within the 100 mile zone is largely irrelevant for what the Border Patrol are doing in the city right now. They could be doing basically the same thing in the middle of Kansas.

Not ICE. Border Patrol. They’re wearing Border Patrol uniforms with clear Border Patrol patches on them. There are many videos of ICE officers doing outrageous stuff but a lot of the absolute worst videos are of Border Patrol, who are basically Bovino and Miller’s most aggressive tool right now.

🦏 Cutting $900bil from medicaid. 🦏 $2 Trillion in tax cuts for the richest people in the county. 🦏 Adding $2.4 Trillion to the national debt. 🦏 Intentionally starving the poor. Now they want to force a national abortion ban? The party of family values? Which family? Joseph Stalin's?

The entire right-wing propaganda machine came after Zohran Mamdani. The president and his allies came after him. Democratic leaders, by and large, did not have his back until the last minute. He still won, turning out historic numbers and inspiring young voters. His politics can win anywhere.

Hundreds of thousands of Hoosiers will lose SNAP benefits TOMORROW. We're calling on Gov. Braun to keep Hoosiers from going hungry by funding Indiana food pantries throughout the federal government shutdown.

On top of taking food from the poor, now the Indiana GOP wants the president to sick the national guard on Hoosiers. Didn't we stand against Tyrants at one point? Now as long as they're Republican we love them? Nah.

The takeaway couldn’t be clearer: Hoosiers are united in saying no to redistricting this year. Let’s keep up the pressure and make sure lawmakers do what’s right and say no mid-decade map changes.

Thank you to everyone who attended my "Fair Maps or No Deal" town hall this past weekend. The event was a huge success! Your energy, questions and commitment made it clear that Hoosiers are paying attention and care deeply about fairness and transparency in our democracy.

If you've already called or emailed about redistricting, ask your friends and family all across our state to get in touch with their state reps and senators. It's all 150 legislators' jobs to listen to their constituents - so let's make sure they've heard from as many Hoosiers as possible!

The oath we take is to serve Hoosiers & uphold the Constitution, not partisan interests. Gov. Braun’s call for a special session to redraw maps mid-decade breaks that oath and erodes public trust. Hoosiers deserve fairness, transparency & a democracy that honors every voice.

Why are we letting D.C. elites order us around when Indiana's cost of living is skyrocketing? Instead of spending taxpayer $ on a fake problem, our state should focus on making life more affordable for Hoosiers. Property taxes, utility bills, and healthcare costs need fixing!

As working families are facing skyrocketing energy costs, the loss of health care and food assistance programs, rising local taxes, and cuts to public safety, it’s unsurprising that Gov Braun has chosen to convene a special session on mid-decade redistricting at the request of President Trump.

So it looks like Braun is going to call the special session. He is covering his ass and doing what the boss (Trump) told him to do. Please call him and remind him He Works for Hoosiers, not the orange turd! Let your State Reps and Senators know Hoosiers Don't Cheat!

Hoosiers need a special session to bring down utility bills, not a special session to redraw political maps. Our state leaders should focus on helping you get by, not helping themselves out.
