We traveled all over the country by bus in July and saw and heard firsthand how people who have lost SNAP are struggling. It just isn't right.
This administration has decided that hunger is a surplus that will help balance the budget, paying for their tax cuts for the wealthy. The wealthy get the break, but we all get the bill.
Billionaires are rich and getting richer. Families like Jasmine White's are choosing between paying rent or groceries. Make it make sense.
It doesn't matter who you voted for now because we're all being screwed. This economy is impossible for most families right now.
OBBBA tax cuts has caused half a million people in New York to lose their healthcare, but as @senatorharckham.bsky.social says, 1.5 million more will lose it next year. It's not right. It's disgusting. It's getting worse.
Sherry Guthridge has worked her whole life, but since OBBBA she has been denied SNAP with no letter or justifications. Her grandsons still need to eat. Are these cuts worth not feeding our families?
A state needs to take care of its people. In Nebraska we fight to ensure that our people are fed, that they have right to medical access, and a good life.
As Dr. Chris Crader says, Medicaid cuts don’t just affect those of us on Medicaid. We all suffer when these programs are cut.
Medicaid lets people live with dignity. What have tax breaks for billionaires gotten us?
More for electricity. More for healthcare. More for putting food on the table. When do working people get a break?
We need to protect our vulnerable neighbors, not help the richer get richer.
Inflation. Tariffs. Trade costs. Our small businesses haven’t just had shrinking profits this last year. They’re in the red while billionaires see record profits.
Have prices gone up? You betcha. When is Congress gonna stand up for us?
We are prioritizing billionaire and corporate interests and asking everyday Americans to bear the brunt of it. It’s not sustainable. It’s not right.
Why are there billionaires when many of our families can't even scrape by? Pastor Jon Hopkins in New Hampshire thinks it should stop.
Even when you figure out ways to run a tight ship, politicians and the billionaires they work for demand more cuts.
Whether it’s the price at the grocery store or just getting there, these costs are too damn high.
A trillionaire and billionaires have plundered our tax dollars and added trillions to the national debt. They’re also destroying democratic institutions so that they can operate and build more wealth with impunity. It has to stop.
Cuts to Medicaid, cuts to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, and other programs that help our families. That is an outrage. That is disgusting.
Families are struggling with their children's basic necessities. It shouldn't be like this. It doesn't have to be.
Reach out to your neighbors, reach out to your community. It doesn't have to be anything big. Does your neighbor need a meal? Maybe they need a ride. Maybe you know they need just a conversation. Any way you can reach out to community and help each other out makes us stronger.
The ultra rich are accumulating more wealth than they can spend. It's time for a fairer tax code.
While we continue the fight for a fair tax system, we depend on our neighbors and our communities to uplift each other. The billionaires won’t save us.
There is more wealth than ever before, but a trickle doesn’t pay the bills.
Civil rights and economic justice go hand in hand. We discussed this today, on the 62nd anniversary of the Civil Rights Act, at our bus stop in Scranton. @pennpolicycenter.bsky.social @pennsyltogether.bsky.social
Billions of dollars are in his pocket, robbed from our communities, from the taxes that we pay into the system, for the programs, the services, and the safety net that we all deserve.
Costs rise. Billionaires get richer. Average Americans feel the squeeze. It wasn’t always this way, and it doesn’t need to be.
