We demand transparency & accountability: Congress must release all communications between the White House & DOJ regarding the SPLC indictment, disclose each nonprofit flagged for investigation, and expose any coordination between this administration & financial institutions to cut off civil society.

Today’s House Judiciary Committee hearing on the SPLC is the latest example. President Trump has radicalized the Department of Justice to go after people and organizations he considers the opposition.

The indictment of @splcenter.org did not happen because of the facts. It comes on the heels of the systematic dismantling of the Voting Rights Act & repeated efforts to make it harder for voters to vote, schools to teach history, health care to be affordable, and people to see an immigration judge.

💸AAPIs are focused on one thing: #affordability 📊2026 #AAPI Policy Priorities survey data with @aapidata.bsky.social shows the federal government’s priorities are out of step from what AAPI families want. 📣As the midterms approach, this is a clear message policy makers can’t afford to ignore.

🗳️ With the midterm elections just 7 months away, President Trump issued an EO that endangers the right of Americans to vote by mail. These changes create chaos and confusion for voters, making it more difficult to vote. ☎️You can call the White House at: 202-456-1111 to share your concerns!

While the president’s budget has always been viewed as a proposal to Congress in past years, the current Administration’s efforts to assert control over federal funding through the termination of grants, withholding of federal funds, and reprogramming is unprecedented.

💸Budgets are moral documents-they show what our government is prioritizing. Unfortunately, the President’s FY2027 budget shows us he’d rather spend trillions on an unnecessary war -not making life more affordable for families.
