Republicans RETURN HOME and get INSTANTLY BOOED to FACES MUST WATCH!


LISTEN TO COLARADO GOV. JARED POLIS! 

HOUSING COSTS, WORK FORCE INNOVATIONS, EDUCATION... 

SENATE: START FROM SCRATCH: ELIMINATE CUTS, ELIMINATE SNAP CUTS, ELIMINATE HEALTH CARE CUTS...


IF REPUBLICANS DIDN'T LIE, NO ONE WOULD ELECT THEM!

LISTEN!

1 IN 5 AMERICANS ON MEDICAID!

Let's be REAL! I won't look up statistics, but we KNOW many on MEDICAID are disabled, elderly or children who have lost parents. They're NOT AFFLUENT! KICKING THEM OFF MEDICAID WILL IMPACT THE COSTS OF OTHER HEALTH CARE! Uninsured people will be forced to wait until a medical condition becomes LIFE THREATENING & go to the EMERGENCY ROOMS - COSTING MORE THAN PREVENTATIVE CARE.

PEOPLE WILL DIE! The U.S. is the only industrialized nation that fails to provide UNIVERSAL HEALTH CARE! In addition, the MAGA GOP DISASTER includes that MEDICARE PROVIDERS' REIMBURSEMENTS will be reduced 5% EACH YEAR. In other words, MEDICARE PROVIDERS will stop accepting MEDICARE! YOUR VOTE MATTERS! It's time to work for UNIVERSAL HEALTH CARE....among other things. The rest of the World provides CHILD CARE, FAMILY MEDICAL LEAVE & much else.


MAGA GOP INCLUDE PERMANENT TAX CUTS FOR WEALTHY & ENDLESS DEFICITS! PLEASE SPEAK OUT! INTEREST RATES ARE ALREADY INCREASING BASED IN DOWNGRADING OF U.S. CREDIT RATING, the U.S. DOLLAR is losing its value. WE CAN'T AFFORD MAGA GOP & PROJECT 2025!

Elon Musk has gone too far

 



Elon Musk dropped an astonishing $20 million into last Tuesday's pivotal election for the Wisconsin Supreme Court — and his candidate lost by a whopping 10 points.1

But despite Musk's humiliating rejection by voters, he's still there, continuing his devastating chainsaw cuts to Social Security, public health, education, food safety, and virtually every other part of the government that helps everyday Americans.2

Enough is enough. It's time for Elon Musk to go, and we're getting behind a lawsuit that could stop him in his tracks.

With our support, a courageous group of federal workers is suing Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) for illegally connecting an outside server to a key government database.3

We believe this case has a real chance to succeed, but going up against the richest person in the world will be a long, hard fight, so we're counting on your help.

Will you make a donation to help support our work, including supporting the lawsuit to stop Elon Musk from illegally accessing government data?

Elon Musk and his DOGE henchmen have indiscriminately fired tens of thousands of government workers and bragged about sending entire federal agencies into a "woodchipper."4

Meanwhile, Musk's claims about uncovering fraud and waste continue to fall apart under scrutiny. In one case, DOGE claimed to have saved $8 billion by cutting a contract that in fact was only worth $8 million, a 1,000-fold typo. Later, it was revealed that the actual savings was zero dollars, because the so-called "contract" was actually just a line of credit that may not have been used at all.5

While Musk's claims about taxpayer savings have turned out to be fake, the damage he's done to key federal agencies has been very real.

To take just one example, DOGE's cuts to the Social Security Administration (SSA) have pushed the entire program to the brink of "total system collapse," in the words of one former SSA commissioner.6 More than half of the SSA's regional offices have been shut down, its website keeps crashing, and phone hold times have reached over 2 to 3 hours.7

No one elected Elon Musk, and it's time for him to go.

That's why we're backing this lawsuit against DOGE. If successful, it will be a huge step toward getting Musk out of our government and out of our data. But as a grassroots-funded organization, we rely on your donations to make this work possible.

Will you donate $20 to Demand Progress to help support our work, including supporting the lawsuit to stop Elon Musk's massive power grab?

Social Security

 


THANK YOU SENATOR ELIZABETH WARREN! WE SUPPORT YOU!

Warren for Senate

Let’s say a 66-year-old man qualifies for Social Security. He’s worked his whole life and contributed his hard-earned money, believing in America’s promise that if you pay into the system, you can count on these benefits when you retire.

Say he calls the Social Security helpline to apply, but he’s told about a new DOGE rule, so he has to go online or in person.

He can’t drive. He has trouble with the website, so he waits until his niece can get a day off to take him to the local office, but DOGE closed that office, so they have to drive two hours to get to the next closest office.

When they get there, there are only two people staffing a 50-person line, so he doesn’t even make it to the front of the line before the office closes, and he has to come back.

Let’s assume it takes him three months to straighten this out, and he misses a total of $5,000 in benefit checks.

Clearly, it would be illegal for Elon Musk or Donald Trump to cut someone’s Social Security benefits like this without a new law from Congress. They know they don’t have the votes in Congress to cut Social Security — so this is a backdoor method they’re using instead.

I’m fighting back by launching the Social Security War Room along with my colleagues Sen. Wyden, Sen. Kelly, and Sen. Warnock to dedicate resources towards exposing this scheme and stopping these attacks. I’m standing with my colleagues to say: Trump and Elon, get your hands off our Social Security.

Let’s be clear here: Social Security is not charity, it’s not some giveaway. It’s something that people earned by paying into it for all of their working years. It’s a sacred promise that if you work hard and pay into the system, you are legally entitled to Social Security benefits when you retire.

Trump and Musk are breaking that promise. DOGE is firing Social Security workers, seizing control of our payment system, closing offices, and pulling the plug on phone services.

Americans are being falsely marked as dead in the Social Security system. People who are very much alive and have bills to pay are forced to go through a months-long, headache-inducing process to get things sorted out.

Musk himself recently called Social Security a “Ponzi Scheme.” Mind you, this is coming from a man who rakes in $8 million a day from the federal government, while the average American on Social Security receives $65 a day.

Now, why might they be looking for indirect ways to cut Social Security benefits and make it harder for Americans to receive their checks? It’s so — you guessed it — they can use the money you paid into Social Security to fund tax cuts for billionaires and billionaire corporations.

These attacks on Social Security are hurting people. And I’m not having this. I’ll continue to closely monitor what’s happening with the Social Security Administration. I’ll continue to sound the alarm on what Trump and Musk are hoping we don’t notice about their backdoor scheme. And our War Room will monitor wait times at Social Security Administration offices, and visit offices to report on the impacts of these cuts.

The most important way you can help fight back is by sharing your story about how Social Security has impacted you and your family. Are you experiencing any issues with your benefits right now? Has access to Social Security benefits made a tangible impact in your life? My team wants to hear from you.

Please click here and share your story about Social Security. While Trump and Musk keep telling lies about this critical program, we’re going to fight back with the truth.

Thanks for being a part of this,

Elizabeth
