they make an appalling $40k a year, which means that a 24% bump would get them a little shy of $50k, which is still underpaid for the labor sanitation workers do
It seriously sucks that this monstrosity now goes back to the House, where the margin will be razor thin, and where multiple Democratic seats are empty because the reps chose to try to hold onto power through the bitter end and die in office rather than retire.
im so sorry, a paragraph like this would get sent back to a first-year student newspaper reporter. how did something written as poorly as this get published
this idea that there’s an army of lazy young dudes who won’t get a job because they’re coasting off of that sweet, sweet Medicaid access is just so laughable
Is the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office, that confirmed this bill will kick millions off of Medicaid & SNAP, lying? Is Sen. Tillis (R–NC) lying?
Bet that voters aren’t gonna be too happy with y’all when they can’t go to the doctor & their rural hospital closes…
🤡🤡🤡
It shouldn't get lost that just today, Senate Republicans have voted to close nursing homes, close rural hospitals, and cut food stamp benefits for children and veterans.

UK politicians & media: death to the IDF is hate speech
In the past 24 hours, Trump’s threatened Elon Musk, Thomas Massie, Japan, a judge in Israel, the CEO of AT&T, Jerome Powell, Canada, Thom Tillis, a Forbes reporter, Harvard, & migrants with being eaten by Burmese pythons in the Everglades, while releasing a new line of colognes.
@bilbosfootcomb People say it’s impossible for the Amish to have no cancers no measles, no diabetes, and no allergies. But anything is possible through the power of lying.
As a social worker it’s really so sad to see how many people on twitter are so chronically online and starved of community that they don’t even know what is happening in our country. They have turned their brains onto this rage bait or nothing filter.
@amyjc92@BeingJWood @EdubwaCf How does being on Medicaid infer that they are able bodied? Poor people with conditions that require residential round the clock nursing care exist. Some born with those conditions, others attributed to trauma.
