Tax Bill the U.S. Senate Passed Is Destructive for Our Country

December 3, 2017
Last night, U.S. Senate Republicans made it clear that their loyalties lie with big corporations and the wealthiest 1 percent, not with moms, women, working families, or our economy. The tax plan they passed would punish the middle class, devastate essential programs that boost our health care,...

Can you take a letter saying NO to the #GOPTaxPlan?

December 3, 2017
This is an all-hands-on-deck moment!!!! You have been speaking out by the thousands because you know the long-term effects of the GOP tax bill are atrocious. But the U.S. Senate passed their bill at 2 a.m. Saturday morning (why in the dead of night!?) and now the GOP leadership are moving to...

The Senate passed its terrible tax bill! TAKE ACTION

December 3, 2017
The U.S. Senate just passed its horrible tax bill. It raises taxes on working families, takes away the healthcare of 13 million people, and balloons our national debt all in order to give tax cuts to millionaires and mega-corporations . Like the infamous Ebenezer Scrooge , the GOP counted its coins...

The GOP’s Tax Bill Will Be Devastating for PA Families Like Mine

November 30, 2017
There is a certain pride that I always feel when I get my two boys ready for the day. Whether it’s turning on their lights in the morning while they are snuggled in a warm bed, or making them a healthy breakfast, I feel proud that I can provide for two curious, incredibly loving children. I do not...

#GOPTaxScam "does not represent our country’s values and it should not become law."

November 30, 2017
The Senate is set to vote this week on the most sweeping tax bill in a generation. This is no dry bill making small adjustments to the tax code. Instead, it is a bill that will affect nearly every aspect of life for average Americans from education to home ownership; from health care to child care...

Why the Next 15 Days are Important for Black Women

November 30, 2017
I'd never been sick before. A light cold here and there, but never seriously ill. I'm young. I eat right. And always take the stairs when presented with the option. This summer as I was planning a vacation with a friend, I came down with what I believed to be a cold. Summer colds are the worst,...

On Trump Admin's Irresponsible Rollback of School Meal Standards

November 29, 2017
The rule the Agriculture Department released today is grossly irresponsible and a significant step backward for our country and for our children’s health. The updated school nutrition standards have been working. Parents support them, kids benefit greatly from them, and the vast majority of schools...
