Today’s general strike is a direct challenge to ICE’s brutality.
We reject a system that terrorizes and dares to call it enforcement.
Your courage is inspiring the world. The power is with the people.
Solidarity with everyone striking.

Last day to reach out to your Senator via this campaign! Let's get as many original co-sponsors as we can.

Africa is the lowest vaccinated continent - not because of vaccine hesitancy but because of a lack of access to vaccines and vaccine tech. Omnicron is a symptom of the inequities of the pandemic, of vaccine distribution; the worsening of this virus doesn’t need to be inevitable.

Good morning to workers at @wirecutterunion on strike today through Cyber Monday with 100% participation.
The @nytimes sits on 1 billion. They’re asking for a total of 300k in raises.
Don’t cross the picket line.

Y'all get that this is what communities often mean when they say "replace law enforcement with community-centered solutions," right?

JUST IN: Kyrsten Sinema has left DC amid negotiations. Her spokesman says it's for a doctor's appointment "for a foot injury." But a hotel just confirmed she will be at her PAC’s retreat with donors for cocktails and dinner at a high-end resort and spa in Phoenix. (@nytimes)

Pentagon budget: $750+ billion/year
Build Back Better Act: $350 billion/year for 10 years
Guess which one of these we rubber stamp every year, and which one is "too much"? It’s time for us to invest in people and communities.

Don't mind me, I'm just out here being a dangerous American radical, talking about how nice it would be to have the things that are boring and standard in virtually every other wealthy nation (and most of the rest of the world), like decent trains and bike lanes and healthcare

As we agreed months ago, we’re going to pass the bipartisan infrastructure bill AND the Build Back Better Agenda — with investments in child care, paid leave, health care, climate action, housing, and more — together.
It’s not one or the other. It’s BOTH.

If you live in their districts, CALL NOW and demand they support @POTUS's plan to allow Medicare drug pricing reform.

Democrats constantly fight against their own agenda and promises. We can’t keep telling people to elect Dems if you can’t get anything done with the House, Senate & White House.
What are you waiting for @senschumer, @speakerpelosi, @POTUS?

The Covid crisis is a premonition about how Climate Change will go down. “We have no water. Its 140 degrees. I’m so sorry. We were wrong. how do we fix it?” “Oh honey it’s too late for us now.”

ATTENTION AUSTINITES:
Today is your last chance to vote early for Prop E & Prop H.
Prop E would replace expensive runoff elections w/ #RankedChoiceVoting!
Prop H would give every voter a $25 campaign voucher to use on a candidate of your choice, empowering small donors! 👇

The climate crisis is the existential threat of our time. We have a moral obligation to protect our planet. And with the Green New Deal, we can also create millions of good-paying jobs and strengthen communities across the country.

This week, there is a coordinated attack on voting rights. GOP-led legislatures in GA, AZ & NH are pushing dozens of bills to make it harder for people of color & young people to vote. We voted in Nov & instead of listening, they are trying to shut us out of the process. 1/18

NEWS: The @DailyPoster is now contacting every Senate Democrat asking if they support House Dems’ call for @VP @KamalaHarris to rule that the $15 minimum wage can remain in Democrats’ COVID relief bill. We will be publishing our story soon. Please retweet. dailyposter.com/p/house-dems…

Kamala Harris should listen to Kamala Harris and end starvation wages in America.
It’s abysmal that the federal minimum wage is $7.25 an hour. You can’t live off that. It’s time for a $15 minimum wage. #FightFor15
