"Trump officials have insisted they don’t have the authority to use a $5 billion contingency fund and don’t have enough money to pay for the nearly $8 billion required for November SNAP benefits." They have the funds; they don't want us fed.

👀 "Trump will use the shutdown as just another tool to do what they’ve been trying to do all year, including dismantling the Dept of Education, slashing programs that serve English language learners, migrant students, shutter community schools and services for young people..."
The longer the shutdown, the worse for schools, education experts say

Increasing healthcare costs by 75% a month is crazy work. Republicans control all parts of the gov and they’d rather shut it down than protect healthcare for 22 million Americans. We can’t let that happen. Text CARE to 25463. #StoptheShutdown #ProtectOurCare #StopCutsToHealthcare

Our affiliate network gathered in DC to shed light on the cuts that strip away afterschool programs, teacher support, and resources for low-income students. Families need fully funded public schools!
🚨Wow. A great crowd of students have gathered outside the Capitol to protest Trump’s cuts to public education.

NOW: Trump and Republicans have failed to make life more affordable for families. Instead of lowering costs, their budget cuts will make it harder to see a doctor, keep a roof over your head, and send your kids to a good public school. Say it with us: #StopCutsToHealthcare

This bill is heartless and inhumane. The Senators and Representatives who backed this big, bad betrayal of a bill should feel something worse than shame. They have blood on their hands.
Senate GOP passes President Trump's domestic agenda bill after dramatic scramble to win over key holdouts, setting up high-stakes fight in the House.

🧵 The Supreme Court has greenlighted Trump to run roughshod over a critical constitutional right. This is not a slide into authoritarianism — this is a one-way plummet.
“The rule of law is not a given in this nation nor any other. It is a precept of our democracy that will endure only if those brave enough in every branch fights for its survival.” – Justice Sonia Sotomayor. https://t.co/gibxV6AnL5
