An estimated 400 students participated in the National School Walkout today to draw attention to gun reform. The 17 minute walkout represented the 17 lives lost in Parkland.

Two days after wasting $1 trillion on tax cuts for the rich, Republicans now claim we have no money for children’s health insurance. I can’t imagine anything more heartless than ignoring our most vulnerable while giving more money to millionaires and billionaires.

#NetNeutrality is key to free expression, innovation & public safety. https://t.co/dcMXWlW9ZN

[Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand]

Ten years ago, @TaranaBurke created the #MeToo movement to tell young women of color who had survived sexual assault that they were not alone. This sparked a powerful movement, made uniquely possible by a free and open internet.

This is why we must fight for #NetNeutrality.

We'd love your support if you can come out on Tuesday! It's at Potbelly from 5-8 PM.

Even just spreading the word and giving it a RT is a huge help!

Thanks!

Good morning,
In case you were asleep like a normal person would be, and NOT looking at the news in the middle of the night, the Senate passed a massive tax bill.

The @GOP plan will hurt:
-Teachers
-Students
-Women
-Homeowners
-Our healthcare system
-The environment
(and more)

[New York Magazine @NYMag]

Republicans passed a massive tax bill that includes a massive windfall for the wealthiest Americans https://t.co/E7jtfJZX1n

[Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin]

BREAKING: Senate Democrats just tried to get Senate Republicans to adjourn for a few days and take the time to actually read their tax bill.

RT if you agree that reading bills before they’re voted on is the least we can do.

Nothing says America like the president referring to a senator as “Pocahontas” and standing in front of a portrait of Andrew Jackson while recognizing Native American war heroes

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

Who benefits from Trump's plan to repeal the estate tax? Only the top 0.2% — Trump, his cabinet, and other millionaires and billionaires.
