We need to fix gerrymandering if we want our democracy to work for all of us. Give this a read and let me know what you think. https://t.co/VtbhIVhrjB

For the first time in decades, preventable child deaths increased in 2025 due to poor decisions around USAID. We need to get back to progress. https://t.co/ow7VwzhiVw

@SenThomTillis on cutting foreign aid & NPR/PBS:

“I suspect we’re going to find out there are some things we’re going to regret, some second- and third-order effects, and I suspect that when we do, we’ll have to come back and fix it,”

What kind of leadership is this??

[Ken Patterson @krampatt]

USAID cuts hurting the US and millions of the poorest. Senators and Reps need to stand up for their power of the purse. https://t.co/hy06AJzRfo @SenTedBuddNC @SenThomTillis @RepChuckEdwards

[Ken Patterson @krampatt]

Where are @SenThomTillis, @SenTedBuddNC, @RepChuckEdwards and other NC Reps. as our foreign policy is being amputated? Please stand up and push back to get funds flowing again to USAID. https://t.co/hy06AJAp4W

[Ken Patterson @krampatt]

The Administration must reinstate USAID funding. They have no idea how many people they are hurting. @SenThomTillis, @SenTedBuddNC, @RepChuckEdwards need to stand up and speak out. Have some courage guys: https://t.co/MjvSI6rqjZ

@samdaleyharris Great piece, Sam. It reminds us that it is up to us to create the world and democracy that we want--it starts with our own actions and our interactions with others.

[Ken Patterson @krampatt]

Great column to remind us that it is within our power to create the kind and compassionate world and democracy that we want--it happens with everyday actions.

@senthomtillis @senbuddtedNC. Congress can reduce child poverty by expanding the Child Tax Credit. Please vote yes on the Tax Relief for American Families and Workers Act (HR7024)! #Voices4RESULTS

@senthomtillis Please sign bipartisan TB letter to end this scourge! Find a copy here: https://t.co/DbXYDAM963. TB is preventable, treatable, curable--we can end it if we decide to.

Please prioritize passing expanded CTC before the end of the year. We can cut child poverty in half again, like we did in 2021 @SenatorBurr @SenThomTillis. See this LTE: https://t.co/Tnw2jlVEOg

@RepDavidKustoff @RESULTS_Tweets Great work RESULTS--meeting with our members of Congress is how we let them know what constituents care about. Hopefully the Congressman will take action on your priorities.

[Rep. David Kustoff @RepDavidKustoff]

I enjoyed meeting today with members of @RESULTS_Tweets including Sue Byrd from Weakley County. I appreciate all that you do to help address child poverty here in West #TN as well as across the country and globe.
