@mauricewfp.bsky.social Mitchell from @workingfamilies.org “Text shutdown to 30403.”

That’s the number that connects you directly to your Senator’s office.

The shutdown isn’t abstract — it’s food, health care, rent. Don’t let them get away with it.

Rep. Casar is right.

Tens of millions of working people and their families are going to lose their health care.

Democrats need to fight with everything they have to make sure that doesn't happen.

Nothing good can come from political violence. It doesn't matter where you stand politically—it's a cancer that needs to be rooted out.

Don't let social media algorithms make you feel powerless.

We've shown that when we band together, we can protect our neighbors from ICE.

We can elect new leaders who want to make housing and transportation more affordable and easier to use.

Better is possible.

Full interview

Tech oligarchs are ready to drop $100m+ to defeat anyone who wants to regulate AI. I joined @thedamagereport.bsky.social to talk about how working people can fight back.

Zohran about to embrace a man in a white tank top on a parade float. Both are smiling.

Eastern Parkway always feels like the heartbeat of New York during the West Indian Day Parade — the food, the flags, the dancehall and soca. Caribbean culture makes this city great 🇹🇹🇭🇹🇧🇧🇩🇲🇱🇨🇯🇲🇻🇨🇬🇩🇬🇾

"You don't need to deny or disappear your values. You don't need to give up on some of the most at-risk or marginalized communities. It is a complete fallacy. What people desire in their leaders is authenticity and fight," says @mauricewfp.bsky.social. newrepublic.substack.com/p/fighting-m...

I spoke with @perrybaconjr.bsky.social about why we need candidates who will fight for a government that does more for working people, not less.

It's not a radical concept.

A popular president with popular policies wouldn’t have to rig maps or redo the census to win.

Closing plenary at #MTASummer is Maurice Mitchell @mauricewfp.bsky.social of the Working Families Party @workingfamilies.org

Speaking about the dangers of feudal technocrats, conservatives & the religious right & also energizing us thru the hope of organizing, like Zohran Mamdani’s primary win.

Israel kills more than 80 in Gaza as outrage over hunger crisis grows At least 14 people died from malnutrition in past 24 hours across Gaza, health authorities say.

We can't look away.

The Israeli government is starving children.The U.S. government needs to pull every damn lever to allow the flow of aid and to stop the slaughter.

They also want to talk about community safety and are interested in how we keep us safe outside of policing! Which also has nothing to do with trans athletes at Penn.

Pro-democracy folks: 👀 @newsweek.com piece by @billkristolbulwark.bsky.social & Tom Rogers highlights the @americanbar.org Task Force report urging states to revisit fusion voting. Re-legalizing fusion = more choice, less polarization, stronger democracy. Coalition politics beats authoritarianism.

When @workingfamilies.org knocks on doors, no one brings up trans athletes at UPenn 🤔

They bring up affordability and the cost of living.
They want to talk about how our entire system is rigged by design.

Let's name it. @wajali.bsky.social

Fusion voting? Well that’s just math mathing.

I joined @pocan.house.gov ‬to break down the how and why fusion voting is a 🔑 for third parties in #elections. #thirdparty @nywfp.bsky.social @nywfp.bsky.social

"There's a point where big money can't trump the power of organizing and good ideas – and the basic decency of everyday American voters." @mauricewfp.bsky.social @workingfamilies.org on why Musk's 'America party' misses the mark – on @thenation.com podcast bit.ly/46Lw8Ao

People across the country want to support Working Families Democrats who will stand up for us – not politicians who will become spineless jellyfish in the face of Trump's tyranny. 🪼🪼🪼

We know Adelita will hit the ground running, and we will have her back Day 1. 💪🏿

Her historic triumph last night showed us what we saw in New York's mayoral race last month: It's not enough to elect just anyone with a “D” by their name.

This is not a regular moment.

And voters know that.

Congratulations @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social on her decisive victory in Arizona on Tuesday night! 🎊🎊

She ran a campaign that was laser focused on affordability and the needs of people who work for a living.

Congrats to Katie and @moveon.org ! @workingfamilies.org is honored to throw down with you during this critical time. We need a fighter for the road ahead and Katie is the woman for the job.

Let's go!!!! 💪🏿💯

From @leedrutman.bsky.social to Elon Musk: If you’re serious about building a third party, then start with #FusionVoting. It’s how minor parties gain real power—by cross-nominating major party candidates and showing where their votes come from. Ballot lines = leverage. Third parties = power.

Elon Musk Consulted Curtis Yarvin, Right-Wing Thinker, on Third Party

Of course he did. A new political party just for billionaires and race science crackpots.

Elon Musk Says He Will Start a New Political Party The tech billionaire, who has publicly feuded with President Trump, wrote on social media that he would be creating “the America Party,” though he hadn’t yet filed paperwork.

There are already two parties for billionaires. We don’t need a third.

If you want a party for working people, join the Working Families Party: wfpus.org/JoinUs

The Democratic & Republican parties are a duopoly—like Coke & Pepsi or Visa & Mastercard. They pretend to compete, but work together to crush their rivals. From banning fusion voting to rigging ballot access & campaign finance rules—they’ve locked the system down.

Republicans just passed the most dangerous bill in U.S. history. The largest transfer of wealth from everyday people to the ultra-rich in history.

In the coming weeks, we're announcing our support for challengers to those who betrayed their communities by voting for this bill.
