We're proud to endorse @Justinjpearson for Congress in Tennessee.

Justin got national attention after he was expelled from the Tennessee House for demanding gun safety laws.

His district has become a flashpoint in the fight over voting rights and racial gerrymandering. @Justinjpearson Tennessee became the first state to answer Trump’s call and rig its maps in Republican's favor.

They eliminated the state’s only Black majority and Democratic majority district.

The City of Memphis is now broken into three different districts, diluting Black voting power.

It may not seem like it right now, but today is the beginning of the end for the Trump era and the MAGA movement.

Here's why. Donald Trump has no solutions to address the needs of working class people.

And we know that when he tries to implement his agenda of:

-more tax cuts for billionaires
-gutting healthcare
-deporting millions
-supporting war crimes with taxpayer dollars

People will rise up.

Every civilian death in Israel and Palestine is tragic. But the Meeks-McCaul resolution offers unconditional support to the Israeli government as they bomb and siege Gaza and plan a ground invasion that will kill many thousands more. Congress should vote no. 1/ Congress should be on the side of saving lives. That means restraint, diplomacy, and rescuing hostages, not unconditioned support for the Israeli government’s escalation. 2/

Happy May Day.

For some, May Day is a day meant for welcoming spring. For others, it's also a day of radical working class solidarity and protest for workers’ rights.

Here's the story of how it started in the U.S. In 1886, hundreds of thousands of working people in the U.S. participated in strikes nationwide organized by anarchists and labor activists for an 8-hour work day and to protest dangerous working conditions and low wages.

This week, Biden announced that his administration will be cancelling up to $20,000 in student loan debt and making adjustments to the income requirements for paying back federal loans.

Here's an explainer. What do I have to do to get my loans cancelled?

You must have a direct loan through the federal government that you received before June 30, 2022 in order to be eligible for the loan cancellation program.

BREAKING: Voting rights activist and WFP champion @MaxwellFrostFL has won his primary election for Congress in Florida.

Frost, who will be the first Gen Z member of Congress, is the 8th WFP-backed non-incumbent House candidate to win their Democratic primary this cycle. BREAKING: @AramisAyalaFL has won her primary election for Attorney General in Florida.

She has spent her career addressing the deep inequalities in our criminal legal system.

She led efforts to launch a bail fund and gained notoriety for refusing to seek the death penalty.

The House just passed the Build Back Better Act.

We are now one step closer to passing legislation that will change the lives of millions of working families for the better. The Build Back Better Act doesn’t include everything we’d like, but it is a historic bill that will make our communities healthier, safer, and more prosperous.

NEW: We're joining with partners to urge progressives to hold the line and withhold support for the Bipartisan Infrastructure Bill until the Build Back Better package is finalized.

Here's why. Over the last year, progressives in Congress have played a crucial role keeping the Build Back Better Act on track, even in the face of a multi-million dollar lobbying campaign by big business to kill it in its cradle.

For close to two decades, Republicans and Democrats voted time and time again to support a corrupt, deadly, and racist foreign and national security policy.

The War on Terror has caused death and trauma around the globe. Our dysfunctional foreign policy strategy is once again leading to destruction and displacement for the Afghan people.

We're endorsing @TheOtherMandela in his race to be Wisconsin's next U.S. senator. Here's why 🧵
Mandela is the son of a union teacher and union autoworker, raised in one of the nation’s most under-invested communities.

He has seen firsthand how badly Republican policies have hurt working families across Wisconsin.

We were lucky to have two progressive giants in this race. But with the field narrowing, we believe the choice for working families is clear. 2/
