"Like birds of a feather, criminals with similar convictions flock together. Dozens of people convicted of defrauding the government and private investors have been pardoned by Trump, many after donating to his campaign or providing support to his family businesses."

Taxing billionaires would raise TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS for education, healthcare, childcare, and lowering costs.
And America's billionaires would still be the richest on the planet.
It's time we end trickle-down. Tax the rich.
"Trump’s priority elections bill has languished in the Senate for the past several weeks, but that hasn’t stopped lawmakers in several red states from introducing similar changes for their elections."

A settlement letter from Starbucks, mailed to a Starbucks worker. "Dear Jacklyn, we are writing to confirm that your Documented coaching... has been removed from your partner file and will not be used in any way against your employment in accordance with a recent NLRB settlement."
Starbucks is the biggest violator of labor law in modern history.
That's why organizing unions in our stores is so important!
SBWU members have won settlements, reinstatements, backpay, and better conditions after taking action together. That's the union difference ✊

Thank you to all the legislators who attended our Legislative Breakfast Mixer with @fobaction.bsky.social this #TaxDay to talk about PA’s upside-down tax system and the fight for fair taxation to fully fund our communities! #PABudget
"Today, the Trump administration is aggressively seeking to restrict access to the ballot box and undermine public confidence in elections, posing a serious threat to our democracy."

On this #TaxDay, did you know that in 2025 U.S. billionaires got an obscene $1.5 trillion richer?
Meanwhile, working Americans got higher costs, fewer services, and stuck wages.
On this #TaxDay, did you know that the Trump-Republican Big Ugly Bill jacks up costs for everyday Americans so much as to outpace the minimal tax benefits that will reach them?

On this #TaxDay, did you know that corporations pay a lower effective tax rate than a worker who makes $45,000 a year?

Russell Vought set out to ensure a second Trump term would not be hampered by checks and balances: “I don’t want President Trump having to lose a moment of time having fights in the Oval Office about whether something is legal or doable or moral.”
Taxes are how we build strong communities:
Good schools. Safe roads. Health care.
But it only works when everyone pays their fair share - and billionaires are not.

For too long, our tax code asked the most of those with the least. Today, that changes. In a historic move for tax fairness in Maine, Governor Mills just signed a millionaire tax into law as part of the state's supplemental budget. #mepolitics
It's great to see Democratic governors pushing back on Trump's fascist voter suppression maneuvers 👇

Voting yes on Virginia redistricting
Save our future. Save our state. Save our democracy. #VirginiaVoteYes
I did! Come on Virginians and join me in voting YES on redistricting on April 21.
This Tax Day, working people are paying more and getting less, while the billionaire class is rolling in massive tax breaks thanks to President Trump and the Republicans in Congress.

"Some of the country’s wealthiest corporations are calculating they owe far less to the IRS as a result of Trump’s overhauled tax code, underscoring how a law billed as a middle‑class cut also turned out to be a big win for Corporate America."

Trump uses vote by mail because it's easy, safe, secure and saves time.
He just doesn't think you should be able to use it - and he'll lie through his teeth trying to take it away.

“At a time when families are struggling to afford the basics -- health care, groceries, and child care -- it is unconscionable to spend $1.5 trillion of taxpayer dollars on a war in Iran that the American people do not want." - Kristen Crowell
Fact checking the BS Republican voter fraud claims:
The Heritage Foundation documented 1,620 cases of voter fraud from 1982 through 2025, including 100 cases of noncitizens voting.
That's about 0.000008% of more than 1.3 billion votes cast.

To catch you up: today Trump demanded a reconciliation bill on his desk by June 1st. Trump and Republicans will be pushing for 3 wars in this bill:
1. Iran war funding
2. A war on our communities through ICE funding
3. A war on our health, food, housing through service cuts to pay for the first two
Let’s be clear about who’s affected by this: working people, seniors, disabled voters, people of color, and rural communities.
This is not about “election security.” It’s about power.
They wouldn’t be coming after these votes if they didn’t matter.
Politics is all about priorities - and the Trump administration's priorities do not reflect our values as a nation.
The Affordable Care Act is personal for me, as I used to have junk health insurance before. If I still had that junk plan, today I would be bankrupt or dead.
