Abortion opponents have made it clear that they are willing to let working families take on skyrocketing health care costs if it means that billionaires get a tax break.

The Trump admin withholding Title X funds further strips health care from people across this country. We know what happens when Title X funding is taken away: cancer goes undetected, birth control access is severely reduced, and the STI crisis worsens. People will suffer.

The White House has said that any of Elon Musk's conflicts of interest regarding his work with DOGE will be monitored and addressed by....Elon Musk.
He's determining which government contracts are "fraud" while he himself has billions in government contracts.

I also encourage you to oppose the FCC's bogus investigation into PBS and NPR sponsorships, which is clearly a politically motivated excuse to cut public media funding. If the FCC has a problem with its own guidelines, it should change them.

Urge the new Congress: Safeguard public media With 70+ newly elected lawmakers, a critical funding deadline March 14, and new calls to defund public media, now is the time to make our voices heard! Email your Members of Congress
Add this to the list of things to contact your members of Congress about: Preserving (or increasing) funding for public media, which only costs $1.60 per taxpayer per year. Peer democracies invest 20 times as much as the US in their public media systems.

My boss shared this post with our team today. It has helpful reminders including:
1) Impact comes from sustained focus, not scattered awareness.
2) Feeling overwhelmed is the point.... They want you scattered. Your focus is resistance.
