📢 #GOODNEWS: In a #Senate vote of 47-50, a harmful resolution aimed at overturning a U.S. Department of Agriculture policy has been defeated. This policy plays a vital role in preventing anti-LGBTQ+ discrimination within food assistance programs, including school meals and SNAP.

BREAKING: @micheleforfl just defeated an insurrectionist to win reelection and serve Florida’s HD-62! Her opponent ran for office from jail. Michele has established herself as a strong advocate for underserved communities in the House, and she's ready to continue that work.

"Our rights are on the chopping block." 📢 @GeorgeTakei tells us why he's in the fight for reproductive rights. It's a fight not just for our rights, but to go against the extremist restrictions to our bodily and sexual freedoms. ❌ 🟣 Do you feel like your rights are at risk?
