Planned Parenthood clinics use these funds to offer cancer screenings, infertility services, and birth control options.
President Trump and his administration are doing everything they can to get between you and your doctor.
This administration is destroying Social Security so they can give tax breaks to Elon Musk and his billionaire buddies.
Always great to catch up with my friend @TheRevAl in New York City!
This administration's recklessness is appalling.
Our service members need competent leadership. Their lives depend on it.
After a judge blocked Elon Musk & his team from accessing your sensitive information, the acting head of the Social Security Administration threatened to close the agency & stop payments for millions of Americans.
This administration's willingness to play politics with your benefits is shameful.
If you're a pregnant woman in this country, there's a good chance your labor and delivery is covered by Medicaid.
If President Trump and the Republican Party continue their attempts to cut Medicaid, how will expecting moms afford the care they need?
Elon Musk is an unelected, self-interested billionaire with no business anywhere near the Pentagon.
On our veterans' toughest days, they depend on VA employees for care and support. Firing the people that step up for our vets is unthinkable.
If you or a veteran you know needs help, please dial 988 and press 1 for veteran-specific support.
He has no authority to close an agency without Congressional approval, & we all must fight for our children.
What happens to the K-12 students that need special education programs or the college students counting on receiving their Pell Grants? He's stealing from our students to fund tax breaks for his billionaire buddies.

Our economy can't afford this administration's chaos.
