Tell Congress: Don't defund our communities President Trump’s decision to block trillions in federal funding to critical services already approved by Congress is a reckless, cruel, unprecedented power grab that will impact every one of us.

Donald Trump is trying to block trillions of dollars in federal funds to Meals on Wheels, Medicaid, and other critical programs that keep us safe and healthy. If allowed to go into effect, this would wreak havoc across the country.

Tell Congress: Trump cannot be allowed to defund our communities.

Why is a man who doesn't read, doesn't go to theater or ballet or any of the arts taking over the Kennedy Center? What a disgrace.

He probably feels helpless like the rest of us and his art is how he’s coping. Maybe?

This is a reminder that no one can convince Trump voters to no longer support Trump, better than Trump can.
