7 meals a week for the hungry and poor in one of the wealthiest countries in the world. Some communities can’t even offer that. Please support your local Meals on Wheels and Food Banks. They are a lifeline for our struggling neighbors who do not deserve this addition burden.
Beginning Thursday, November 6, SNAP recipients can receive seven free meals each week per household member.

Incredibly grateful to @OSCE colleague @JennionJames and rising UK Labour star @kieranpmaxwell for the insightful visit to Portcullis House and Parliament to talk politics, campaigns, trade unions and, close to my heart, @Teamsters @TeamsterSOB
Eternally grateful to those who step up to serve. Few exemplify a life of selfless public service better than Boone County’s @s_webber.
Not leaving yet but taking a break from this site. Join me under bluer skies at mtphillips.bsky.social.

If you are turned away at the polls, your response [verbatim] should be as follows: “Give me a provisional ballot with a receipt, as required by law.”
Pass it on.

As disconcerting as it can be, it is a high privilege to live in a country where you don't know who is going to win an election tomorrow. Highly unusual in human history.
The world is run by those who show up-Benjamin Franklin
On Tuesday, show up at the polls and choose leaders to run our world who reflect decency, compassion and competence.
You know the assignment.
It’s election season around the world! Honored to have been a member of the U.S. delegation for @OSCE’s international election monitoring mission for the Republic of Georgia’s parliamentary election.

You guys...check your registration RIGHT NOW!!!
Driving through Scotland this morning and hearing @warnerben sharing his expertise about political debates on BBC World warms my @Mizzou loving heart! 🐯 💛🖤
Happy Labor Day from the grateful daughter of a Springfield NEA member and granddaughter of a Screen Actors Guild member. Tough careers made bearable by the security and protections in a union contract.
An excellent, honest conversation about reproductive freedom and why it is so important to the health and future of women and families.
Pretty sure the American Catholic bishops cutting anti-poverty and social justice programs is not the way to fill pews and encourage donations.
🧵
My story today for @NCRonline
At their upcoming spring plenary, the U.S. Catholic bishops may be looking to significantly scale back their anti-poverty, social-justice domestic program that for decades has been attacked by far-right Catholic groups.

It’s Election Day in Missouri with important local issues on the ballot. You can vote until 7pm tonight.
Thank you to the candidates, election workers and you, the voter, who serve as the heartbeat of our representative democracy.

THREAD: What is happening in UK universities is astonishing. Right now about quarter of universities are laying off staff. Almost all universities expect to make a loss this year. And the entire thing is happening in an effort to deceive the population about migration statistics.
