Congress is rushing cuts to Medicaid โ€“ a health insurance program for children and adults with low incomes, seniors in long-term care, pregnant women and people with disabilities. Call Congress at 202-224-3121 to stop cuts and protect critical care for those who need it the most. #HandsOffMedicaid

Science and International Studies are the Foundation of American Power The second Donald Trump administration has targeted science and international studies for devastating cuts in financing, coupled with unprecedented levels of ideological screening of scientific andโ€ฆ

Gutting science, international studies, and higher education is a direct threat to U.S. global power. Subordinating science in the public interest to the political whims of unelected individuals undermines U.S. national interests, and is a major gift to boost lagging strategic competitors (PRC/RUS)

@raskin.house.gov: "Mexico said they were gonna put 10k troops on the border-- they already had 15k troops on the border! ... He just likes a lot of razzle dazzle and noise, but the leaders of the world are laughing at him. And we can recognize what a fraudulent pretense this whole thing was."

โ€œPeople Will Dieโ€: The Trump Administration Said It Lifted Its Ban on Lifesaving Humanitarian Aid. Thatโ€™s Not True. Organizations that provide vital care for desperate and vulnerable people around the world have been forced to halt operations, turn away patients and lay off staff. โ€œIโ€™ve never seen anything that sca...

They said donโ€™t make science political

Since thereโ€™s a call to end โ€˜DEIโ€™ with air traffic controllers, I figure itโ€™s a great time to look at the data on who holds these jobs.

Dozens of people died in a plane crash and Trump's reaction was to personally capitalize on it, despite being the responsible party for aviation safety being compromised.

Trump needs to be judicially removed or step down, his failures won't end with just 68 victims.

Women deserve to know the TRUTH about the impact of Texas' total abortion ban.

Today, I along with Rep. Gerry Connolly, Rep. Summer Lee, and Rep. Ayanna Pressley sent ANOTHER letter calling on
Texas to explain why it won't release maternal mortality data from the past 2 years after Dobbs.

News clip from New York Times by Sheryl Gay Stolberg 

"Robert F. Kennedy Jr. once again betrays his ignorance about Medicaid. โ€œThe premiums are too high, the deductibles are too high, and everybodyโ€™s getting sicker,โ€ he said. But Medicaid has no premiums or deductibles; it's the state-federal program for low-income people."

Rfk Jr doesn't understand Medicaid. He does not deserve to be HHS Secretary.

It's not a buy out. Those employees who don't want to RTO are basically being promised that their salaries will be paid to Sept. 30th. I wouldn't trust that promise, especially when the CR currently funding the government expires April 1.

In 2004, I interviewed for a teaching position. The principal asked me how many kids I had. I answered. He asked if I was planning to have more โ€”said he couldnโ€™t afford to have another teacher out on maternity leave.

This is why women need protections, diversity, equity, and inclusion.
