"Mike Lawler was the deciding vote for that Big Bag of BS Bill that cut $900 billion from Medicaid and the Affordable Care Act.
It is not enough to just blame Donald Trump. We need to put it on all the people who enable this to happen.
And that starts with Mike Lawler."

No other major democracy in the world provides life tenure for high court judges. It’s time for Supreme Court term limits.
Check out these Brennan Center resources and help spread the word:

Hollywood writers, on average, are paid $69,510 a year.
Bob Iger is paid $74,175 a DAY.
That is "very disturbing" to me, Bob.
Disney CEO Bob Iger says the writers and actors going on strike in Hollywood are not being “realistic” with their expectations: "It's very disturbing to me." variety.com/2023/tv/news/bob…

Yesterday, students walked out around U.S. to protest gun violence.
You wouldn't know that from @washingtonpost today.
That is why we follow @democracynow, in news⬇️.
Young people are fighting for a better world. They deserve our support & attention.

Every media outlet going to Nashville is voyeurism, not journalism.
Instead, go all over U.S. & to Congress. Hold elected leaders accountable.
Expose hypocrisy of "protecting" kids with book bans while refusing to truly protect them from guns, racism, toxic chemicals, & more.

Interesting campaign by @ADL, @AgudahNews, and other Haredi organizations urging community members in English and in Yiddish to be sensitive when dressing up in Purim costumes and against hanging effigies for Haman.
In previous years such incidents led to major public outcries.

If you live in NY, CALL Hochul NOW: 518-474-8390
It takes 2 min. Say "I'm a constituent, I voted for the Governor. I'm glad she won, but the Dems' losses across the state are a disgrace. Jay Jacobs needs to be replaced immediately."
Press 3 then 2 to be connected to a human.

If you are a Democrat anywhere in America who is frustrated that we’ll lose the House by so few seats:
NY House losses were the reason & the man who theoretically could have averted this is named Jay Jacobs.
And now we’re going to have him replaced, for proper accountability.

BREAKING: Thank you to the @nytimes for bringing the institutional educational neglect of children in Haredi and Hasidic schools to the front page. We’ve been fighting for these students for years — it’s time for the world to take action. #YeshivaGate nyti.ms/3RBVNB5

This afternoon, our chair, @morris_pearl delivered a petition to senators demanding the federal minimum wage be raised to $15/hr.
Workers have been stifled under $7.25/hr for thirteen years. As inflation skyrockets and corporations profit from greed, we need Congress to act.
