ACA Marketplace Premium Payments Would More than Double on Average Next Year if Enhanced Premium Tax Credits Expire | KFF KFF estimates that, if Congress allows the enhanced premium tax credits to expire at the end of this year, ACA Marketplace enrollees on average would see their premium payments more than double next year, growing by 114%, from an average of $888 in 2025 to $1,904 in 2026.

Affordable Care Act Marketplace 🩺 Premium payments will more than double in 2026 if ACA Enhanced Premium Tax Credits expire. 💀

This is the largest increase in ACA Premiums since Trump's last increase in 2018.

Buddy Carter calls us “woke mobs” & claims we have a “violence problem.” These attacks are meant to silence us. They won't work.

Savannah is showing up to hold him accountable. Stand with us.

Prop 50 Vote YES Phone Bank – Protect California’s Voice! · Activate America 📣 Prop 50 Vote YES Phone Bank – Protect California’s Voice! Big news! We’re folding into the Team Newsom phone banking campaign — joining forces to make our calls louder, stronger, and more impactful than ever! 💪💥 Together, we’ll make sure California voters know exactly why YES on Prop 50 is a must to protect fair representation and fight back against MAGA gerrymandering. Event Description: Join us to call California voters in support of Prop 50, the Election Rigging Response Act! This critical measure pushes back against MAGA Republicans in Texas and other states who are gerrymandering congressional maps to lock Democrats out of power. Prop 50 temporarily empowers the California Legislature to redraw maps for 2026–2030 — ensuring fair representation, protecting voting rights, and giving California a stronger voice in Congress. During this phone bank, volunteers will: ➡ Call California voters to raise awareness about Prop 50 ➡ Explain why fair maps matter and how gerrymandering undermines democracy ➡ Provide key dates for Vote-by-Mail and early in-person voting Why this matters: ➡ MAGA Republicans in other states are stacking the deck to weaken Democratic representation ➡ California could gain up to five additional House seats if Prop 50 passes ➡ Every conversation and every vote directly impacts national politics in 2026 This Week’s Schedule: Tue, Oct 7th – Prop 50 Kickoff (Now Team Newsom x Activate America!) We’re joining forces to call California voters about Prop 50 — protecting fair maps and stopping MAGA gerrymandering. Without it, California could lose up to five House seats. We’ll also share key Vote-by-Mail dates so voters are ready to make their voices heard. Wed, Oct 8th – Prop 50 Continued Keep the momentum going! More calls into California to make sure voters know why Prop 50 matters — and how to return their ballots on time. 📞 Every call counts — your voice helps protect democracy, defend fair maps, and ensure California’s voice is heard loud and clear! 💙 Sign up, bring your energy, and join Team Newsom and Activate America to power a YES on Prop 50 victory!

Help call CA voters in support of Prop 50!

This critical measure is a direct response to MAGA Republicans who are gerrymandering congressional maps to lock Democrats out of power.

📅 Tuesdays & Wednesdays until Nov. 4
🕒 3 - 4:30 PT/12 - 1:30 ET

Last week, I shared an article about why Military Occupation can't happen in the U.S. - written by former DOD.

But Cy Canterel goes one step further to argue that even TRYING military occupation during a simultaneous economic crisis would expedite regime collapse.

What’s the Plan? A Weekly Discussion with Indivisible’s Co-Founders · Indivisible The onslaught of news, the chaos coming out of the White House – it’s all meant to overwhelm us. It’s a deliberate strategy to sow confusion and make us believe we are powerless to fight back. The antidote: Coming together in community to process what’s happening, to sift through what’s important and what’s just noise, and coalesce around strategies for fighting back. Join Indivisible co-founders Leah Greenberg and Ezra Levin each week, as we carve out an hour to discuss what’s happening and – more importantly – what’s the plan.

This Week's "What's The Plan" w/ @indivisible.org co-founders Leah Greenberg & Ezra Levin is on Friday, Oct. 3 at 3pm ET.

Come together in community to process what’s happening, sift through what’s important, and coalesce around strategies for fighting back.

Hey furloughed fed friends,

Stop feeling GUILTY. It’s not your fault the work isn’t getting done. You didn’t ask to be at home or warming an office chair. This colossal waste is not your fault. Don’t feel bad for someone else’s mistakes.

Unplug if you can. Rest. Take care of yourselves 💚🫂

Representation matters because it saves lives and shows our young people they are not alone. Far-right hate does not get to decide who belongs.

It quickly grew into a boycott campaign, with conservatives demanding Netflix strip all LGBTQ+ content for kids and adults. Their goal is simple: erase queer and trans people from public life.

We want to be absolutely clear: we support trans people.

Trans kids exist.
Trans families exist.
