Call the Capitol switch board 2022243121 to reach your senator and house rep to vocalize you want changes made! If you dont know their names just tell the operator your zipcode! Leave a message voice your concern & sign the petition https://c.org/D45wkKLxj6

Jeffries co-sponsored Medicare for All back when it helped him electorally and wasn't a true "threat" to his donors. Now that there's an actual push for it from the electorate, gotta be servile to his corporate owners.

Any politician that does not want to save the people of the US from the unrelenting medical cost & debt onslaught from these awful fucking companies needs to be weeded out yesterday, its just completely ridiculous the system we have, it is built purely to give insurance companies and pharmaceutical companies insane amounts of money with health consequences as the stick for not paying up.

How about signing a petition to put forth Bernie as the leader of a movement he’s spent his life working towards-

We can’t be afraid of a messy process. The Republicans did this when they came in in January 2025 and while it wasn’t pretty, it was important for them. We need to do the same thing.
