Stop Trump’s illegal federal funding freeze

January 28, 2025
Trump’s illegal freeze potentially impacts a wide swath of vital programs that allow parents to work, children to thrive, people to contribute to their communities, and small businesses and our economy to run, like: Head Start, health care, disaster relief, school meals, veterans programs, public schools, elder care, clean water infrastructure, housing assistance, meals on wheels, and federal cancer trials, and so much more. If this sounds incredibly concerning and illegal it is!

Say NO to RFK Jr. to lead Health and Human Services!

January 10, 2025
As parents, there’s nothing more important than our children and family’s health. From routine physicals, to a common cold, to a devastating diagnosis—we safeguard our children and family the absolute best we can. We should expect the same from our leaders! Donald Trump’s nomination for Secretary of Health and Human Services, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. (a.k.a. RFK Jr.), is grossly unqualified and a dangerous pick to be put in charge of safeguarding our nation’s health and must be stopped!
