Medicaid was signed into law 59 years ago and is the largest provider of U.S. healthcare, covering 80M+ people. ThatsMedicaid.org highlights individuals helped by #Medicaid at critical moments, underscoring the program’s value in all 50 states. #MedicaidAt59

“There is no other group of women to whom we are saying, ‘There is a career path for you in early childhood, get your associates degree, go get your bachelors degree; but now we are telling you that you have to go back to accepting minimum wage.’”

The budget from @MayorBowser would be catastrophic for DC families.
It guts child care, early childhood educator pay, DCPS teachers, rent relief, legal aid, violence prevention, victim services, Baby Bonds, DC's Earned Income Tax Credit and SNAP food assistance.
Unconscionable.

National election days are stark reminders of the injustice of the nearly 700,000 DC residents, who pay the same federal taxes as residents of states, having no voting representation in Congress and only limited, revocable local self-governing authority.
No thank you
Holy shit: Oz says his abortion position: should be between "a woman, her doctor, and local political leaders" #PASenDebate

Federal taxes are due today.
I hope residents of states take a moment to reflect on the fact that the 690,000 DC residents pay the same federal taxes as they do but are denied the same voting representation in Congress.
#DCStatehood is the just solution.

D.C. is home to over 700,000 citizens who pay more in federal taxes than 22 other states but have no vote in how those dollars are spent. It's past time for them to have a voice in our democracy. Today, @OversightDems is holding a hearing on #DCStatehood—let’s get this done.

RT: 8 Wards with the perimeter stretching over a portion of just two of those Wards (namely, 2 & 6)
We are 712k residents strong who pay more in federal taxes per capita than residents in any other state
DC Govt functions as a state, county, city and school district.
#WeAreDC
🚨 Attention all media 🚨
Thank you for coming to Washington, DC to cover this historic #Inauguration just days after the #Jan6 #insurrection
The security perimeter is approximately 4.6 square miles out of DC’s 68 square miles total. By area, that is less than 7% of DC.

Meanwhile, a current Metro D.C. police officer on the scene yesterday said in a public Facebook post that off-duty police officers and members of the military, who were among the rioters, flashed their badges and I.D. cards as they attempted to overrun the Capitol.

America, I’m honored that you have chosen me to lead our great country.
The work ahead of us will be hard, but I promise you this: I will be a President for all Americans — whether you voted for me or not.
I will keep the faith that you have placed in me.

It’s too late to use the mails. Given Supreme Court rulings I urge everyone to now vote in person; early vote or use drop boxes. Protect your health but don’t let the Court and the deliberately crippled Postal Service deprive you of your most precious civil right. Plan your vote.
Americans shouldn't have to stand in line for hours to exercise our right to vote, but I'm proud to be part of a team that's making voting a bit tastier. 8 days left--make your vote count!
We’re feeding democracy by sending 250 pizzas to people waiting in line to vote. Report a line at polls.pizza & they’ll take it from there. Spread the word (& consider a donation)! @PizzaToThePolls #Vote

If you can only stay in power by denying 700k Washingtonians Congressional representation, YOU are your own problem. #taxationwithoutrepresentation #DCstatehood
