Vance: "There's a lot of emergency healthcare at hospitals provided to illegal aliens. That was funded by the federal govt. We turned off that funding because of course we want citizens to benefit from those hospital services, not to be taxed & then have those hospital services go to illegal aliens"

A State Department employee shared with PBS News an image from inside the department. The image includes a piece of paper taped to a mirror with the words, "Colleagues, if you remain: RESIST FASCISM. Remember the oath you vowed to uphold."

Hell YES! Y’all are flooding the Capitol Switchboard so hard it’s overwhelmedβ€”this is people power in action! πŸ’₯

Here’s what to do next: Call your reps’ district offices instead. It’s easyβ€”just Google their name + β€œdistrict office number.”

Pass it on. Keep that pressure blazing.

Final vote. 50-50. VP breaks the tie.

One single GOP Senator could have stopped this abomination. Saved millions of parents from watching their child go hungry. Saved the lives destroyed when Medicaid disappears.

They will all live forever with the horror of this bill.

5/ The bill cuts the help middle income Americans get to buy health care on the Affordable Care Act exchange.

A 60 year old couple making $85,000 (not a king's ransom) would see a $26,000 increase in health care premiums. Yes, that's right - $26,000.

Ok, so Republicans just introduced a 900 page bill none of them have read. But my team is going through it line by line and on this 🧡you can see the hidden provisions we found. Will update all day.

1/ NEW Medicaid cuts, so now 17 million - instead of 16M - lose health care.

50 Reasons Why Everyone Should Want More Walkable Streets From making you live longer to making cities more resilient: If you want a reason to make your city more walkable, it's in here.

β€œSomeone with a 1-hr car commute needs to earn 40% more to be as happy as someone with a short walk to work. On the other hand, if someone shifts from a long commute to a walk, their happiness increases as much as if they’d fallen in love.” #CityMakingMath

I am looking for congressional leaders to come out quickly and forcefully against this. We need unequivocal opposition. We need theatric demonstrations of defiance. We need to see leadership. Trump will steamroll us all if we display weakness. Where are our leaders?
