This is a REAL commercial running in Georgia. 😐 Racist co-opting racism. That’s a new one. Make sure you get out and VOTE Ga!

Starvation wages forced me to live in my car with my two babies.
Starvation wages left me making decisions between keeping the lights on and food on the table.
Stop blaming unemployment benefits for worker shortages and start paying people a livable wage.

If we have more COVID vaccines than people, but cannot get to herd immunity due to vaccine hesitancy then we have messed up the messaging.
The message should be clear and should come from every leader in the country.

The only way we’ll be able to beat this pandemic is if enough people get vaccinated. So join me, Michelle, and Americans everywhere in getting the COVID-19 vaccine as soon as it’s available to you—and encourage your friends and family to do the same. madetosave.org/act

Biden says the federal government will launch a website before May 1 that will make it easier for people to find vaccination sites and schedule an appointment. axios.com/biden-states-expan…

Good morning, the Democratic Party exists solely to neutralize the actual left by redirecting progressive energy into upholding two-party capitalism and portraying anyone outside of that dichotomy as a lunatic or traitor soooo have a good day I guess

trader joe's just fired me for sending this letter to the ceo, saying i don't share the company values. i guess advocating for a safer workplace isn't a company value?

When I graduated college in 1968, the typical corporate CEO got 20 times the pay of the average worker.
When I became labor secretary in 1993, the ratio was 61-to-1.
Today, the ratio is 320-to-1.
Capitalism is off the rails.

The Senator from Texas saw a crisis and escaped to the Ritz Carlton in Cancun.
Meanwhile, a congresswoman from New York - whom that TX Senator regularly uses as a punching bag - just raised a million dollars for Texans.
One party works for you. The other works for themselves.
Wow.
We officially raised $1 million for Texas relief at 9:17pm.
Thank you all so much. 🙏🏽 I’m at a loss for words. Always in awe of movement work.
💯% of this relief is going straight to Texan food assistance, homelessness relief, elder care, and more. secure.actblue.com/donate/ao…

I got the vaccine today. Thank you science. Thank you to all who have been working on the front lines. I still remember the godsend of the polio shot, a flashback of emotion sweeps through me again.

Calling on @Dromm25 @DRichards13 @JumaaneWilliams and the NYC Budget Director to hold an emergency council meeting. The expenditure on police overtime for curfew highlights that the current budget favors police funding over social services and education. Change the budget NOW!
