I spoke to @npr.org about USDA’s illegal demand for sensitive data about millions of food stamp recipients.
It’s the kind of request you make if you’re trying to feed a massive surveillance program, not if you’re trying to feed hungry kids.
Every state should sue, and refuse to comply. 👇👇

Map of the U.S. showing voter support for cuts to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP, or food assistance) by congressional district. Support for SNAP cuts ranges from 5% to 14%. Created by Data for Progress.
There is not a single congressional district in the U.S. where more than 15% of voters support cuts to SNAP, the federal program that provides food assistance to millions of low-income Americans.

Well, that and sent his goons systematically from agency to steal our federal data.
So, he bought the presidency, shut down investigations into his companies, gave himself billions in contracts, stole our data, found zero waste, decimated the U.S.'s ability to do anything for workers, then bailed.

Murray to FDA Commissioner Makary: "I believe this administration is laying the groundwork to rip away access to medication abortion across the country. This has not gotten enough attention and I know you'd prefer to keep it that way."

Juan Ciscomani said he had a spine when he signed letters to protect Medicaid, but his vote proves he never had one in the first place.
He didn’t just turn his back on #AZ06 families, he looked us in the eye, lied, and took a victory lap with his vote.

Every independent analysis is clear: the budget bill passed early this morning by the House GOP will gut essential programs like Medicaid and SNAP for working Americans, and make the ultra-wealthy richer.
We must do everything we can stop this bill in the Senate.

The current budget bill is an atrocity and out-of-touch leaders like Chuck Schumer laid the groundwork by voting for the CR.
Appeasement and complicity do not work. When you bend the knee, they’ll break your leg.

two things are true
one: Dems need to stop electing geriatric members who get too sick to make votes or literally die in office
two: it wouldn’t have mattered on this horrifying clusterfuck of a bill, two Rs missed the vote and they’d have passed it regardless

People need to see it there and I'm shadow-banned.
It's much worse than the stealing from the poor to give to the rich. This was HIDDEN in it. Government officials will literally no longer need to follow the law!

Congress moves to loosen toxic air pollution rules
The House and Senate both voted to loosen regulations on air pollutants like dioxin and mercury, which are associated with higher cancer risk.
Because they want to kill us, Congress voted to overturn a Clean Air Act regulation limiting toxic emissions from industrial facilities like refineries, chemical plants, and steel mills. This marks the first Congressional rollback of the landmark environmental law's protections since its creation.

New head of Social Security, hired from Wall Street, tells staff he had to Google the job when he was offered it
Newly sworn-in Social Security chief Frank Bisignano, who previously was a Wall Street executive, told staffers he had to Google the SSA job when it was offered to him.
“What the heck’s the commissioner of Social Security?"
That's a real question from Frank Bisignano...the commissioner of Social Security.
Millions of Americans depend on Social Security. They should be able to trust that the head of the agency even knows what the job is.
