Lt. Governor @julianastratton.bsky.social 🤝 Protecting abortion rights and expanding women’s healthcare

It’s not normal to ignore laws that have protected us since the Civil Rights era. Trump and his accomplices at HUD need to be held accountable.

As Secretary @tobiasread.bsky.social put it: “This is a deliberate attempt to make voting harder, more expensive and less secure.”

NEW: Lt. Governor @austindavispa.bsky.social is urging lawmakers to include $1.9 billion in federal Victims of Crime Act (VOCA) funding in this year’s budget. VOCA supports nearly 150K Pennsylvanians each year.

From the DLGA family to yours, Shana Tova! Wishing everyone celebrating a happy new year.

Virginia! It’s time to make your voice heard. Find your early vote polling location here: demlgs.org/vavote

“If the president actually knew or cared about the American people, he would know that mail-in elections are the best way for Oregonians to protect their right to vote.”

NEW: The DOJ is suing the state of Oregon. Secretary @TobiasRead is ready to uphold his oath and protect the voters of Oregon.

Less than 50 days until we elect Virginia’s dream team! 💪

NEW: Lt. Governor Flanagan is traveling across Minnesota listening to farmers and the problems they’re facing.

ICYMI: Lt. Gov. @saraforwi.com launched her 72 county listening tour!

That’s the truth.

ICYMI: The Meyer-Evans Gay administration passed several bills to address Delaware’s housing crisis: protecting tenant rights, supporting manufactured homeowners, and creating funding streams to expand affordable housing.

The Shapiro-Davis administration is union strong. 💪

State governments hold the responsibility to provide public services including public transit. It is a public good that benefits everyone. Every county in PA has a public transit agency that needs state dollars to provide their services. The state legislature must get this done now & pass a budget.

There will always be more work to do on public safety, but troops on our streets is not the answer. And no amount of Trump's lies about Chicago will make it so.

Lt. Governor @garlingilchrist.bsky.social is advocating for the inclusion of free breakfast and lunch for Michigan public school students in this year’s budget, highlighting its importance for families across the state.

Democratic Lt. Governors know that organized labor and strong unions are the backbone of our country. We celebrate working folks across the country!

“I want to be clear: Even if you don’t use Medicaid or SNAP, these cuts will impact you and your family. This Republican tax plan will wreck our health care system and hurt vulnerable Pennsylvanians.” –Lt. Gov. @austindavispa.bsky.social

ICYMI: Oregon Secretary of State @tobiasread.bsky.social responds to Trump’s call to end vote-by-mail.

My heart goes out to all those affected by the terrifying act of violence at Annunciation Catholic school this morning. I'm grateful to the law enforcement who responded. Please join me in praying for the victims and the families of the Annunciation community.

👏👏👏

A message to Donald Trump from a Black woman and a Chicagoan: we don't want you here.

The Constitution is clear that state and local governments run elections. When the federal government is involved, it is through Congress, not an executive order signed at the president’s whim.” –Oregon Secretary of State @tobiasread.bsky.social

Lt. Gov. Stratton is right, this fight is not over. 👏👏👏

NEW: The Shapiro-Davis administration just made Pennsylvania the first state in the country to offer an online pardon application. This streamlined process gives more people the opportunity to seek a second chance.

Lt. Gov. @austindavispa.bsky.social has some advice for young people.

ICYMI: The Kelly-Toland administration has announced a $10.4 million investment in broadband and public WiFi to ensure everyone can participate in the digital economy.

Secretary @tobiasread.bsky.social rejected the Trump DOJ's demand for voter data, calling out an administration bent on silencing voters and undermining democracy. Oregon won’t play along.

Public libraries are essential to communities across Wisconsin and the country, offering programs and services that many people might not otherwise have access to. That’s why Lt. Gov. @saraforwi.com is encouraging folks to contact their representatives.

While MAGA Republican John Reid wonders why 300,000 Virginians losing their healthcare is his problem, @senatorhashmi.bsky.social is focused on closing the gap. www.wfxrtv.com/news/your-lo...

NEW: The Healey-Driscoll administration has announced a $3.3 million grant to strengthen English language arts and literacy instruction across 25 school districts.

In less than three months, we will elect @senatorhashmi.bsky.social as Lt. Governor and defeat MAGA Republican John Reid.

ICYMI: Lt. Gov. @julianastratton.bsky.social is traveling across Illinois for her ‘Keeping it Real’ listening tour. By meeting folks where they are, she’s gaining a clear understanding of what they want her to fight for.

ICYMI: The Shapiro-Davis administration have invested $11.5 million in Pennsylvania to fund after-school and summer programs.

🎯🎯🎯

New Jersey is fired up and ready to elect Mikie Sherrill and Dr. Dale Caldwell in November!

Lt. Gov. @saraforwi.com’s experience as lieutenant governor has prepared her to serve as governor.

One of the things we heard often from EMS workers was the lack of mileage reimbursement for their services. That's why we worked together with the state legislature last year to secure over $20 million for reimbursement for our EMS workers so they can continue to serve their communities.

Thank you, @DemocraticLGs! Thrilled to have your support. Let’s go!

The DLGA is proud to endorse Dr. Dale Caldwell as the Democratic nominee for New Jersey's Lt. Governor.

I’m thrilled to welcome Dr. Dale Caldwell as our Democratic candidate for Lt. Governor of New Jersey! Dr. Caldwell has spent his life in service — to his faith, to his students, and to the communities he’s helped strengthen with decades of leadership.

Our Democratic Lt. Governors have seen @saraforwi.com’s leadership firsthand, and the DLGA is thrilled to endorse Sara Rodriguez in her run for Governor.

It’s official – I’m running for Governor of Wisconsin. Here’s what you should know: ✅I’m a lifelong Wisconsinite and your Lt. Governor. ✅I’ve been an ER nurse, a public health exec, and a small biz owner. ✅I flipped a red seat in 2020 and won statewide in 2022. www.youtube.com/watch?v=mRie...

ICYMI: In response to federal cuts to SNAP, the Healey-Driscoll administration launched a public-private task force to figure out solutions that can help offset the impact of those cuts and develop long-term solutions to address hunger.

The minimum wage was established to protect workers and create a standard of living to raise people out of poverty.    16 years at $7.25, the minimum wage is far below what’s necessary for workers to live, raise a family, and live a full life.     Let’s raise the wage.

Democratic Lt. Governors are the most diverse group of elected officials in the country.

Lt. Gov. @austindavispa.bsky.social: Those closest to the pain should be closest to the power. www.timesleader.com/opinion/1710...

The Shapiro-Davis administration stands with and supports first responders. 💪

The Supreme Court gave the green light to the Trump administration to continue dismantling the Department of Education, despite ongoing litigation. Let’s be clear: dismantling the Department of Education will harm the most vulnerable students.
