New analysis from CBO of the "Big Beautiful Bill" shows the bottom 20% get poorer, not much change for most of America, & the top 10% get meaningfully richer - and that's before tariffs It was the largest transfer of wealth from the poor to the rich in a single law in history

Your reminder that less than two weeks ago, far-right House Republicans stripped the $10 billion supplemental for FEMA’s disaster relief out of the govt funding bill, even though the DRF was already out of money, Helene was on its way, & we were in the middle of hurricane season.

It is profoundly corrupt for an elected representative to introduce legislation to have the federal government buy financial assets the member herself is invested in

The Republican Party benefits enormously from the fact that, if you explain what their policies are, no one believes you, on the grounds that “no one could possibly support that.”

Marshall is going to put every senator on record. If that amendment is adopted, it would force an automatic nearly 10% cut to: -NIH’s cancer & stroke research -the program that helps ensure our drinking water is safe -nutrition 4 pregnant moms & babies -most education -lots more

Hard to explain the reality of pre-ACA unless you lived through it, but: Before the ACA, if you got sick, health insurers could decide to just not cover you. Many people could not get health instance. An estimated 25-50% of America had pre-existing conditions. Obama fixed that.

Workers covered by union contracts earn 13.2% more, after adjusting for education, occupation, & experience. Median usual weekly earnings for full-time work is $898, so that’s $44,900 working 50 paid weeks a year. 13.2% of $44,900 is $5,927, far more than $700. Join a union.
