The 14th Amendment changed the course of American history. It guarantees #BirthrightCitizenship, equal protection & due process.

Now Trump & extremist lawmakers want to dismantle it. We won’t stay silent.

Now more than ever we need to let house reps know that voting yes on cutting healthcare for 17million people = NO for their reelection!

This isn’t over. But the cracks are showing.

While the GOP belittles and denies how much our lives depend on programs like #Medicaid, leaders of our network — several in wheelchairs — were zip-tied & hauled out of the Capitol today just for fighting to stay alive.

📢 We will keep fighting! #WeWontGetOverLosingMedicaid

Just now: Folks who rely on Medicaid and SNAP protesting the Republican ‘Big Beautiful Bill’ that would gut social safety net programs and give tax breaks to billionaires ‼️

We'll keep fighting until the bill is dead!

#WeWontGetOverLosingMedicaid

Law enforcement has been sent to silence disabled Americans peacefully protesting in the Senate—because Republicans are trying to rip away the Medicaid that keeps them alive.

This is cruelty, plain & simple.

We see you. We won’t be silent. #WeWontGetOverLosingMedicaid
@adamparkhomenko.bsky.social

People in wheelchairs are getting arrested right now in the Russell Senate Office Building in DC. They showed up to tell Congress not to cut their Medicaid, because they cant afford health care without it. If you look closely you can see the zip ties on their hands. #WeWontGetOverLosingMedicaid

#WeWontGetOverLosingMedicaid
Republicans don’t GAF about us…

📌 Today, Capitol Police are threatening to arrest people in wheelchairs.

📌 Yesterday, McConnell said “failure is not an option” and this…

RESIST. RECLAIM. DEFEND OUR HEALTH.

🏳️‍🌈 The federal budget bill is a direct attack on LGBTQ+ lives.

This isn’t just a bad bill—it’s a war on working families. We’re saying HELL NO.

People cannot afford their rent. It’s actually that simple.

The big, ugly bill will gut our healthcare, slash food & housing programs, & hand even more power to greedy corporations & the ultra-rich. Today, we are joining our allies @debtcollective.bsky.social, @seiu.org, @ppact.org, @standupalaska.bsky.social & others to kill the bill before it kills us!

We’re not letting politicians owned by billionaires cut our life-saving programs to give their donors more tax breaks.

HAPPENING NOW: 60+ arrested in Congress fighting to #ProtectMedicaid.

They call it a big, beautiful bill.
We call it a death budget.

Cuts to:
✂️ Medicaid
✂️ SNAP
✂️ Disability benefits
✂️ Reproductive care

They’re coming for our survival programs.

As Co-Executive Director Analilia Mejía says: we have to kill this bill before it kills us all!

Trump's Corporate Oligarchs: Billionaires Cash In While Working People Pay the Price - Popular Democracy in Action

🚨 NEW REPORT: We’re exposing 6 billionaires behind Trump’s cruel agenda.

In order to appease their billionaire donors, Republicans are pushing tax cuts for the ultra-rich and making us pay for it by slashing our survival programs.

A protester holds a large handmade sign reading: “CUTS TO OUR HEALTHCARE IS A DEATH SENTENCE FOR THE MANY.” She wears a blue bandana and stands with other protesters. The graphic overlay reads: “We’re refusing to watch our people suffer. TONIGHT @ 7 PM ET, we’re organizing to fight back. RSVP now! popdemoc.org/FightBack.” The image emphasizes the urgent fight to stop healthcare cuts and protect working-class communities.

It’s not “just” Medicaid cuts.
It’s not “just” ICE raids.
It’s not “just” less food stamps.

It’s all connected.
All designed to break us apart.
All for billionaire tax breaks.

We fight back TONIGHT. 7PM ET.

#CareNotCuts #AbolishICE #WeFightBack

📣 NO MAGA BUDGET CUTS 📣

TOP members from Houston, San Antonio, & Dallas were back in Washington D.C. this week, ramping up pressure on elected officials with our partners at @popdemocaction.bsky.social, to call out drastic cuts to Medicaid & federal housing assistance in Trump's budget proposal.

We won’t allow them to take away healthcare for 16 million people!

#CareNotCuts
#ProtectMedicaid

Our people are getting arrested in DC right now because we believe healthcare is a human right, no exceptions!

No Medicaid & SNAP cuts! No funding for ICE raids! No tax cuts for billionaires!

They can try to stop us but until this big ugly bill is dead, we will keep rising up.
