This just won't die. Repealing the SALT cap would save me money. Don't do it. Look around at America, our country should not be spending billions on people like me.

We are learning a couple more details about the plan by a group of mega-wealthy Silicon Valley investors to create a whole new city — or potentially more than one town — in Solano Co., and hearing more about the political and legal misery that awaits them. sfist.com/2023/08/30/politic…

The Dropout and Morbius both trending right now, and nobody's tried to do a crossover?

@SenAlexPadilla @SenFeinstein @repbarbaral Please include $20 billion for the High Speed and Intercity Passenger Rail Program in the reconciliation bill. HSR is good for our communities, the economy and the environment. We need to invest in a sustainable, equitable future!

ALT A basketball court. A giant in a business suit is leaning on the backboard, so tall his head is out of the shot. He is holding the basketball under one arm. Beneath the backboard are a woman and a man, looking up at the giant, angry expressions on their faces.
@SenAlexPadilla @SenFeinstein @repbarbaralee Pls sign on to the letter pushing for dedicated funding for high-speed rail in the infrastructure bill! We must invest in world-class transportation that responds to the challenges that face Americans today and in the coming years.

The SALT cap costs me money. It was signed by Pres. Trump, a cancer on American democracy.
But... it happens to be good policy. It's progressive. Please keep it, Dems.
Student loan forgiveness, even in small nominal amounts, could make a big difference, so I do not oppose it.
Less than 15% of the benefit of student debt cancellation and less than 1% of the benefit of SALT cap repeal go to the bottom 40 percent of earners. These are not policies to help the poor or middle class. crfb.org/blogs/debt-cancella…
