Measles Surge in Southwest Is Now the Largest Single Outbreak Since 2000 Growing case numbers suggest that national total will surpass that seen during the last large outbreak in 2019.

The spread of measles in the Southwest now constitutes the largest single outbreak since the U.S. declared the disease eliminated in 2000, federal scientists told state officials in a meeting on Monday.

If Dems care about protecting Social Security, they'll need to push back. Student loans are the only type of household debt that the federal government can garnish one's Social Security check for. As seniors with student debt rise, this move will undermine the nation's largest anti-poverty program.

Trump’s assault on education is an all-out assault on our children and their futures.

I met with @aftunion.bsky.social & @neatoday.bsky.social, our country’s largest teachers’ unions, to discuss how we can protect our students, educators, and families.

We’re fighting back.

A living wage, healthcare and decent housing shouldn’t be a luxury. FULL STOP.

💪💪💪

Activists never retire. Incredible to see so many AFT retiree members at #HandsOff rallies across the country.

They want us to be silent. But we won’t be.
Because we know there’s no cavalry coming.
We are the cavalry.
And we’ll fight in the courts, in the streets and in our communities—because our kids, our jobs and our futures are worth fighting for.
#HandsOff

The labor movement will continue to fight for trade policy that prioritizes the interests of working people without causing unnecessary economic pain for America’s working families.

Head Start Teacher Samantha Jennings is sad and angry that Trump's education cuts put her program at risk. That's why she's standing together with fellow teachers, students, and community in New Haven to fight back. #NoMoreCuts #ProtectOurKids #HandsOff

Wisconsin's working people rejected the richest man in the world's attempts to literally buy an election, and embraced a circuit court judge who puts workers over billionaires.

Congrats to Judge Susan Crawford and the Wisconsin AFL-CIO for making this victory possible.

Salute to Elon… 0 for 2 in 2025!!!

Goldman Sachs now sees much higher odds of economy shrinking, hiking probability of a U.S. recession to 35% Goldman believes the tax-like impact on real disposable income and consumer spending from Trump's tariff policies will hurt U.S. growth prospects.

Trump's policies are slowing economic growth, killing consumer confidence and increasing the odds of a recession - all to give more tax breaks to billionaires. fortune.com/2025/03/31/g...

Overturning the Consumer Finance Protection Bureau’s rule that caps overdraft fees is a direct attack on all working people and everyone living paycheck-to-paycheck, and is a gift to big banks and billionaires.

UPSET! All precincts. James Andrew Malone wins the 36th Senatorial Seat

It’s good to be a Lancastrian right now

The solution to closing the wage gap runs through the labor movement.

Organize, fight for economic justice, and demand equal pay.

This is an earned benefit. Every person who gets Social Security has paid for it. When they close a Social Security office, it’s to make it harder for people to get their Social Security. - @rweingarten.bsky.social

Closing Social Security offices makes it harder for people get their Social Security. Shutting down phone lines makes it harder for people to get what they need. They're undermining opportunity and retirement security for everyone.
