Medicare for All would save $450B a year.

Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.

Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.

It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.

It’s about priorities.

In the rural South where Medicaid has been a lifeline, residents brace for cuts With Medicaid cutbacks on the horizon, millions in the U.S. are expected to go uninsured. In the Mississippi Delta region - one of the poorest places in the U.S. - people are stressed and mad.

Millions of Americans are on the brink of losing their health coverage after Congress gutted Medicaid to give ICE billions of dollars to terrorize our communities.

These cuts will fall hardest on people with disabilities, rural residents, and working families.

The Democratic Party is spineless.

It’s damn near a year after the party got blown out by the Republicans and the party still can’t even commit to Medicare for All, despite over 80% of Democratic voters supporting it.

In fact, the party still doesn’t have a platform!

Price increases for "things" under Donald Trump:

Coffee is up 26%
Baby strollers are up 25%
Beef is up 14%
School supplies are up 7%
Electricity is up 5%

Car prices are at a RECORD high.

And thanks to Republicans in Congress, health insurance premiums are about to DOUBLE.
