This might be a hot take for Republicans, but Americans should not be dipping into their savings account to get by. President Trump, do you really think the affordability crisis is still a "hoax"?

Hunger is a policy choice. Republicans slashed vital SNAP benefits at a time when their policies have skyrocketed grocery prices, leaving hardworking families to pay the price. This #HungerActionDay, we recommit to ending hunger instead of stripping support from the people who need it most.

American taxpayers have spent BILLIONS on Trump’s reckless and costly war of choice. Meanwhile, they can barely put food on the table or fill up their gas tanks. No one asked for this war. END THE WAR NOW.

Happy National Public Lands Day! From sweeping forests to neighborhood green spaces, our public lands shape our communities & reflect our national heritage. As the Trump Admin threatens these treasures, don’t forget: they belong to all of us, & protecting them is our shared responsibility.
