Statement “Our country is facing a serious emergency because the Trump Department of Agriculture is refusing to use contingency funds to support SNAP benefits in November. That is a choice the Trump administration is making that is unjustifiable, callous, and cruel. It will cause massive hardship and hunger. If the administration makes good on its threat, more than 41 million people in this country – children, seniors, moms and families, people with disabilities, people who work hard at jobs that don’t pay them enough to feed their families – will go hungry.

With our democracy on the line, California voters will have a chance to vote on Prop 50, the Election Rigging Response Act, on November 4. It levels the playing field by authorizing temporary changes to California’s congressional district maps in response to the brazen partisan redistricting taking place in Texas, North Carolina, and other states.

Statement “Today is Disabled Women’s Equal Pay Day, when we focus on the shameful fact that women with disabilities in our country are paid just over half of what men without disabilities are paid each year. There are more than 3.9 million women with disabilities in our nation’s workforce who do vitally important work yet, including those who work part-time and part-year, they are paid just 56 cents for every dollar paid to men without disabilities.

Statement “President Trump is taking a literal wrecking ball to the White House and also to the democratic institutions we hold dear. He recently bragged that he ‘took the freedom of speech away’, which is a violation of our U.S. Constitution. America’s moms are horrified and fed up.

News release “At 2,700 events around the country – and the world – on Saturday, America’s moms helped power the largest demonstration in modern history, sending the message that we won’t let this President trample our Constitution, destroy our democracy, take away our health care, undermine our schools, militarize our streets, ignore due process and disappear our immigrant neighbors, or silence any one of us. MomsRising was a national organizing partner for No Kings.

Statement “Ten years ago, we marked the first Latina Equal Pay Day to shine a light on the extreme wage gap Latinas face – and a decade later, Latinas are still being shortchanged, losing nearly half our paychecks to this appalling discrimination. Every one of our elected leaders should be outraged that in our country today, Latinas working full-time, year-round are paid just 58 cents on average for every dollar paid to White, non-Hispanic men.

Statement “Republican leaders control the U.S. House, the U.S. Senate, and the White House, which makes a government shutdown entirely in their control and their responsibility to fix. This fact is not lost on the moms of America. Also not lost on the moms of America is the fact that our country is facing a health care crisis the Trump administration and Republican leaders in Congress created with their unprecedented, reckless cuts to Medicaid and their refusal to extend the premium tax credits that make health insurance affordable for tens of millions of moms and families.
