In the 1920s, Mary McCleod Bethune stared down the KKK to help Black men vote. In the 1960s, Amelia Boynton was beaten while marching for voting rights. Yesterday, Rep. @Cannonfor58 was arrested for fighting voter suppression. Black women are still fighting the same fight.

I’ve been evicted. I’ve been unhoused. I’ve lived the consequences of means tested aid. Means tested survival checks will worsen the hurt that St Louis is already feeling.

RT @chrislhayes: What a remarkable presence @CoriBush is. Incredible to have her in Congress.
Republicans are going to act like the difference between $600 and $1,200 is no big deal. This is infuriating. I’ve been unhoused. I’ve lived paycheck-to-paycheck. The difference of $600 dollars is having a hotel room or sleeping in the car. $1,200 was already the compromise.

Billionaires have increased their net worths by more than $637 trillion since the pandemic began. Meanwhile, 40 million people have filed for unemployment. It’s clear the system doesn’t work for regular people. We fix it by taking the power back at every level of government.
