People with low incomes risk losing health coverage or food assistance under new Medicaid and SNAP work requirements, and states should use shared data and streamlined processes to reduce administrative burden and keep eligible people enrolled. https://t.co/lGvQCYszFu

No one tells you that grief can start before goodbye.

That you can sit next to someone you love and already feel the ache of missing them.

This book is that story. Ours.

Rick Jackson’s fortune was too large for Georgia’s disclosure form.

He entered $999,999,999.99 — apparently maxing out on the digits allowed.

His campaign said his actual net worth tops $3 billion. #gapol

State gas tax holidays will help corporations and visitors far more than those having a hard time paying for gas. Read more in ITEP's recent report: https://t.co/219tP6fk2c

As we begin the 2026 legislative session, I have some thoughts on the QBE and the opportunity weight pilot in the FY26 budget.

CBPP's Jennifer Sullivan posted a thread on Bluesky explaining that some Republican responses to the marketplace premium tax credit issue would steer people from silver plans with PTCs and cost-sharing reductions into high-deductible bronze plans https://t.co/aG4jqUdMNI

[Sarah Lueck @sarahL202]

Reports that the White House is working on a proposal to extend premium tax credit enhancements shows the Administration is acknowledging the urgent need to address premium spikes for millions of marketplace enrollees. But big questions remain.🧵

[GBPI @GaBudget]

It's imperative that the administration does not manufacture an even greater crisis by following through on threats to illegally fire federal workers or by disrupting programs. Read our full statement with updates on las night's government shutdown here: https://t.co/bVZJEmawJL

A new analysis from @GaBudget finds that H.R. 1 represents one of the most regressive federal policies in modern history, delivering massive tax breaks to the wealthiest while cutting essential programs. https://t.co/866gG52mOG

Congress has passed the budget reconciliation bill by a 218-214 vote. It features inequitable provisions that are deeply harmful to marginalized and rural Georgians. Full statement here: https://t.co/NPNMeNrViM

Always interesting to me how many orgs now talk about abortion access who refused to link arms with us in the fight.
They are as complicit as the people who passed the laws.

The "Big Beautiful Big" is anything but!

Cuts to health care and food assistance under the federal budget reconciliation package could result in the loss of 23,000 jobs in Georgia and a decrease of $2.6 billion in state GDP. https://t.co/xyQ5vu0xHQ

[GBPI @GaBudget]

Senate Ag’s proposal would require most states to pay a portion of food benefit costs for the first time, leaving them w/ two options: significantly reduce the # of ppl receiving food assistance or some states ending #SNAP entirely. More from @Katie_Bergh: https://t.co/Y7f3Zj1eLi

Attacking children and pregnant people is unconscionable.

[Shelby Gonzales @shelbytg74]

By deleting a few imp words from the E&C bill, the reconciliation bill the Hse Rules cmte is likely to advance creates an unconscionable decision for states: end health coverage for lawfully residing immigrant kids & pregnant adults or face steep federal Medicaid $ cuts.

[Staci Fox (she/her/y'all) @StaciFox]

These moves to strip people of food and healthcare aren’t about anything other than greed.

[Brendan Duke @Brendan_Duke]

Official CBO analysis confirms the obvious: House Republican tax and budget bill isn't shared sacrifice.

It makes poor people poorer and rich people richer. It does this by cutting health care & nutrition to help finance tax cuts skewed to the wealthy.

[Staci Fox (she/her/y'all) @StaciFox]

Calling a rules committee meeting in the dark of night only shows cowardice.
