Today marks five years since George Floyd was killed by police. Our June 22, 2020 cover “Say Their Names,” by Kadir Nelson, illustrated how Floyd’s murder embodies the history of violence inflicted upon Black people in America. nyer.cm/UmfefJw

Casar: What we discovered last night, which is really breaking news, is that they’re not just robbing Medicaid—it turns out they’re also planning to rob Medicare of nearly half a billion dollars if they pass this bill.

Ansari: I sit on the Natural Resources Committee, where we witnessed the most anti-environment legislation go through. It includes massive giveaways to the oil and gas industry. I discovered that the chairman had purchased hundreds of thousands of dollars’ worth of oil and gas stocks.

Tokuda: When you take a look at where the need is, it’s across the country—but especially in red states and red districts, we see a disproportionately high percentage of folks who rely on SNAP to put food on the table, and who rely on Medicaid to make sure their families have access to healthcare.

Dingell: They are going to rip healthcare away from almost 14 million people. When I was at home, a mother had her child in a wheelchair and started crying on the elevator—she wanted me to promise her that her child would still be able to go to the doctor. Children’s Hospital in Detroit—

Schneider: Many of the areas they represent have the highest need for support from Medicaid, and many families in those districts rely on SNAP.. But what we’re seeing is Republicans in Congress aren’t representing their districts—they’re kowtowing to Trump.

Scanlon: You don’t schedule a meeting for 1 a.m. unless you’re trying to hide something. This bill is terrible. Republicans have been very reluctant to defend what’s in it.

Clarke: This is a fight over what is right and what is wrong. It is wrong to use this moment to drastically cut the services that the American people need—on top of tariffs, on top of gutting the federal workforce—while people are facing challenges, and then to dismantle healthcare as we know it.

Underwood: This represents the largest cut to healthcare in U.S. history. The largest cut to food assistance in U.S. history. Literally, they are stealing food out of the mouths of hungry kids to pay for a tax cut for billionaires. It is cruel. It is anti-American. And it is just plain wrong.

Takano: This bill will hurt veterans. 1.5 million veterans get their healthcare through Medicaid. They are slashing programs to try to pay for these tax cuts—except they’re not actually paying for them. It’s going to create additional deficits, which means all of the cuts are only a partial payment.

Disparate impact liability challenges unconscious bias and emerging discriminatory practices in places like employment, housing, credit, and insurance.

Another FU to the people by DJT.

Disparate impact liability holds employers and other entities accountable for policies or practices that have a disproportionately negative impact on a protected group, even if the intent of the policy is not discriminatory.

When you look at this text, it looks more like it was written by Chat GPT... "Write a whiny text on Easter that sounds like Trump." Trump does not use or pronounce big words. He did not write this on his own.

Keep calling. Keep showing up everywhere they go. Keep shouting at protests.

Be relentless. Don't let them sleep at night. Don't let them walk out a door without us being there. Protest protest protest by every means available to you.

IT'S WORKING KEEP IT UP!!!! #april19 #protests #medicaid

I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

A Reagan-appointed judge just issued a scathing rebuke of the government’s actions in the Abrego Garcia case, warning of a constitutional crisis and executive overreach. This ruling is stunning—because it had to be.

Sen. Chris Van Hollen said he spoke with the American embassy in El Salvador today and they said that they’d never been told to in any way facilitate the court ordered return of Mr Abrego.

That sure sounds like evidence of criminal contempt to me.

Booker: "This isn't just about Mr. Garcia. This is about every American understanding that this president is making an assault on the due process rights that are afforded to people in our country ... you cannot disappear people off American streets."
