John,
Our Squad is holding the line on debt ceiling negotiations, and they are ensuring that we fight to raise the debt ceiling without any cuts to critical programs like SNAP:
Speaker Kevin McCarthy and Republicans are trying to make cuts to critical and life-saving programs like SNAP and Medicaid by implementing harsh work requirements.
It is immoral for a country to give tax breaks for private jets and yachts and then work to destabilize people’s lives by threatening to cut vital social services. Justice Democrats in Congress are holding the line against Republicans who are working to strip people of critical programs.
Right now we have eleven Justice Democrats in Congress — imagine if we had 20 or even 30 folks who fight every single day for the 99%? Running against the entire political establishment takes a lot of resources and we operate on a shoestring budget — which means your grassroots donations have an incredible impact.
Together we will continue to fight for the soul of the Democratic Party,
Team JD
