Wonder why so many Minnesota school districts across the state are turning to voters for local funding year after year? Thank Jesse Ventura and Tim Pawlenty.

Saint Paul: Vote YES on November 4th. Then letโ€™s tell state leaders itโ€™s time to raise revenue and stabilize school funding. Yesforspps.com

It's actually more costly, short-term and long-term, to give tax cuts to billionaires.

How dare they do this to our great state.

New Mexico saved up money from taxing oil and gas companies to pass the nation's first universal child care program. Minnesota has the third highest average cost of child care in the country.

Thereโ€™s a bill for that, and we could fund it by taxing the rich and corporations.

We need to choose a better path. We continue to reward the rich for being rich, while the working class struggles to overcome generational barriers.

Imagine if our policies were focused on eliminating systemic wealth gaps - all of us would be better off.

Tax the Rich. They'll Stay Mamdaniโ€™s plan to tax New Yorkโ€™s millionaires has the penthouse crowd aflutter. History and data show they wonโ€™t fly the coop.

Wealthy people and corporations always threaten to leave when theyโ€™re asked to pay what they owe. History shows they donโ€™t follow through.

New analysis from the non-partisan CBO of the "Big Beautiful Bill" shows it was the largest transfer of wealth from the poor to the rich in a single law in our nation's history - and we need to hold accountable every member of Congress who voted for this abomination.

Itโ€™s time to show our Minnesota values - correct the inequality raining down from the federal government by taxing the rich and providing healthcare in our state.

Rep. Kim Hicks on the largest transfer of wealth from the bottom to the top in our history, and the stakes for people with disabilities.

We need a system that values people over profit.

โ€œI believe in the people in this country - if we open our eyes up as a society.โ€

In Oro Valley, AZ, Lisa Levine, a retired Army captain and educator, says that America can overcome if we open our eyes to how the rich and corporations have captured our politics and made us so unequal and divided.

If everyone who benefits from our social safety net voted for people who support our social safety net, we wouldnโ€™t be facing cuts to Medicaid.

What if we cared for our neighbors just a little bit more?

What if our public policy reflected that?

We can make our state better for everyone.

Weโ€™re in the wealthiest country in the world, yet we spend remarkably little on public goods and services.

Other countries have figured out how to take care of their people. Itโ€™s time we build the political strength to take care of each other.

These people lack the basic human decency to govern. The only thing that matters to them is helping out billionaires who never have to worry about medical bills.

Weโ€™re all supposed to get services for our tax dollars - thatโ€™s why government exists.

A shared pool of resources. Billionaires are doing everything they can to take that away from us. They donโ€™t care about you.

They plan to rob you of healthcare and increase your daily costs, while handing even more wealth and power to billionaires.

Send this to friends and relatives that are misunderstanding what this bill is.

Be aware that cuts to services we all rely on is simply a choice - and we could be asking the wealthiest to pay their fair share instead.

Weโ€™ve been through this before.

We can make different choices.

Canโ€™t believe we have to say it.

Public funding for public needs - not corporate interests.

As the federal admin is set up to tear Medicaid apart - harming millions of Minnesotans - the House GOP is spending time casting doubt on Medicaid. Rep. Hicks is right - the agreed HHS bill addresses their concerns, but theyโ€™re holding it up because they distrust public agencies.

While we fight to protect our public funding and environment here in Minnesota, Congressional Republicans are moving to sell our country for parts - to corporate polluters, the big business that they're fighting to cut taxes for.
