Millions of working families will lose coverage and millions more face sharply higher premiums if the ACA tax credits expire.

New analysis from @kdoc-writes.bsky.social and @groundwork.bsky.social's Breyon Williams find Black Americans would face deep losses and financial harm.

Love to my friends and colleagues born abroad today, you deserve to feel safe and welcome where you are ❤️

Fear and cruelty are their goals. It is dangerous to keep treating this administration as legitimate. This is tyranny.

The "why's" are important here: Trump's attacking equity to make it harder to hold the government & corporations accountable for the harm they do, particularly to communities of color.

But don't get it twisted, these actions make us all sicker and less economically secure 😷📉

What do you get when thousands of federal workers are laid off, millions of borrowers' credit scores drop 100s of points, and billions of dollars of federal funding evaporates over the course of a few months? Idk, but I bet it starts with an 'R'

Remote work doesn't thwart productivity. It boosts focus.

Government workers are 12% more productive when randomly assigned to work from home. They're more efficient where it's quiet.

Most people aren't shirking from home. They're escaping distractions and long commutes.

Why we have to keep talking about reparations in 2025 Reparations for Black Americans—whether for chattel slavery at the federal level or more local forms of redress for past harm at the state and municipal levels—have long been dismissed as unrealistic ...

Reparations? In this economy? Yes, in fact, and now more than ever. Here's the latest from me on why it's critical we don't let the chaos of this political moment cause us to lose sight of our commitments to equity ✊🏾

This Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, remember that children, poverty, and economic freedom were at the heart of Dr. King’s “I Have a Dream” speech. More than 60 years later, child poverty persists—especially for children of color.

What he actually wants is for Black children (and adults) to turn off their pain receptors for injustice, so he doesn't have to hear them complaining about it.

Nah.

Stay sensitive to racism, it doesn't have to be inevitable. Calling it out is how we remove racists from the power structure

"Kennedy has articulated a vision that will, if enacted, lead to the deaths of untold numbers of people, many of whom have not even been born. It's difficult to overstate the long-term danger he poses."

Saw this post and was like "Damn it's been years can people let that man rest?? He was the King of Pop 😢" #twoamericas

I sincerely hope all of us on the progressive side of the world are taking rest and restoration seriously as we enter this new era of...chaos, is I guess the best term.
