🗨️ Sin docentes no hay futuro. Un sistema de educación pública financiado es nuestra mejor inversión en democracia, paz y prosperidad.
Levantémonos. Enseñemos. Transformemos.

[Speaker Emanuel “Chris” Welch @SpeakerWelchIL]

Everyone has constitutional rights regardless of immigration status. Know your rights!

Reminder: The staffing shortages at the National Weather Service’s San Angelo and San Antonio offices doubled under the Trump administration.

These jobs are meant to coordinate disaster response and save lives.

[Rep. Jack Kimble @RepJackKimble]

If only there was some kind of government agency assigned to monitor and give advance warning. Something like a National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. That would be a great agency to fund well and never gut it's funding to give early warning to save lives in these situations.

[Rep. Marcy Kaptur @RepMarcyKaptur]

In June of 1877, 10 Irish miners—the Molly Maguires—were hanged to silence their demand for dignity. As a union working-class daughter, I honor their courage. They fought for fair wages and justice underground and above. Their struggle lives on in every worker who still dares to organize—Onward! #1u

Thank you Sen Booker ❤️

[Noel Candelaria ✊🏼🟧 @NoelCandelaria]

Banning books, defunding public institutions like public schools and libraries are steps that have been taken throughout history by tyrannous governments and leaders.

[The Tennessee Holler @TheTNHoller]

🔥 WATCH: “You’re giving me politician doublespeak. It’s bullshit.”

@michaelianblack calls out @RepMikeLawler (R) for claiming he won’t cut Medicaid “benefits” — hiding behind the “waste, fraud, abuse” cover story.

Spoiler: Michael is right. Cuts are cuts.

[Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren]

Linda McMahon is a former WWE executive who "wholeheartedly" agrees with Trump that we should abolish the Department of Education.

I’m fighting to defend our students and teachers.

[The Daily Show @TheDailyShow]

An interview with Elon Musk? Jon Stewart would be delighted!

[Center for American Progress @amprog]

Trump will say a lot tomorrow. But here’s the truth: People are losing their jobs. Child care centers are closing. Community health programs are shutting down. Farmers are losing the resources they were promised.

Get a passport if you live in the US. Update it if yours is expiring

[Center for American Progress @amprog]

The Trump administration and MAGA Republicans’ priorities are clear: cut the programs that American families rely on–like Medicaid–in order to give their billionaire donors a tax cut. https://t.co/5hF41Nm5mX

[Lt. Governor Juliana Stratton @LtGovStratton]

“Tyranny requires your fear and your silence and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage.”

And a mic drop moment. Chills! Thank you @govpritzker!

[Governor JB Pritzker @GovPritzker]

As Governor of Illinois, my oath is to the Constitution of our state and our nation.

We don’t have kings in America, and I won’t bend the knee to one.

[Encyclopaedia Britannica @Britannica]

Encyclopædia Britannica will continue to use ‘Gulf of Mexico’ for a few reasons:

-We serve an international audience, a majority of which is outside the U.S.

-The Gulf of Mexico is an international body of water, and the U.S.’s authority to rename it is ambiguous.

[James E. Clyburn @RepJamesClyburn]

USAID feeds starving children in extreme poverty around the world.

Its health programs combat malaria, tuberculosis, HIV/AIDS, and infectious disease outbreaks.

History will remember — Trump and Elon Musk wanted to dismantle USAID.

[Governor JB Pritzker @GovPritzker]

JD Vance is saying the quiet part out loud: the Trump administration intends to break the law.

America is a nation of laws. The courts make sure we follow the laws.

The VP doesn’t control the courts, and the President cannot ignore the Constitution.

No one is above the law.

[Leah Greenberg says NO KINGS ❌👑 @Leahgreenb]

HAPPENING NOW: members of Congress led by @maxwellfrost.bsky.social are attempting to enter the Treasury Building to demand answers re: Musk’s unconstitutional money grab
