We're in a health care emergency.
Republicans in Congress gutted Medicaid, and now, nursing homes, community clinics, and hospitals are closing.
Health insurance premiums are skyrocketing and people risk going bankrupt without coverage.
Congress must fix this crisis RIGHT NOW.

Friends, I am asking for your help to save Sayeed Nasser, an Afghan interpreter for U.S. troops who has been detained by ICE and will be deported if we don't get him released. The Taliban have already killed members of his family. It is gravely unjust to abandon him. I've laid out the info below.

Trump considers redirecting $3 billion in Harvard grants to US trade schools
President Donald Trump said he is considering taking $3 billion of previously awarded grant money for scientific and engineering research away from Harvard University and giving it to trade schools.
βMost of that grant money is appropriated by Congress for the National Institutes of Health to disburse to fund biomedical research after a lengthy application process by individual scientists, work that is not typically done at trade schoolsβ¦β
