One Agency Stands Between NC and Fraudsters, and Trump Is Trying to Dismantle It
There’s a government agency with the sole purpose of advocating for consumers, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. They aren’t flashy. They don’t have a catchy name. But wow, do they deliver results for everyday people. And President Trump is trying to shutter it completely, calling it a “woke, weaponized” agency. Thom Tillis agrees, claiming that the CFPB is “pushing beyond its regulatory and jurisdictional boundaries.”
North Carolina Can’t Afford Trump’s SNAP Cuts
North Carolina would certainly feel MAGA’s Medicaid cuts, but layering SNAP cuts on top of it would be a devastating 1-2 punch to working class families who are already struggling to make ends meet.
What’s beautiful about this?
MAGA lawmakers are looking to cut $300 billion from SNAP– the federal food assistance program that serves 42 million Americans– and $880 billion from Medicaid– the health insurance program that covers 1 in 5 Americans. Millions of working families would lose their health insurance. Millions more would struggle to put food on the table.
We Won
This week, Justice Allison Riggs won. North Carolinians won. American democracy won.
When Jefferson Griffin finally conceded, you could feel a collective sigh of relief– not just in North Carolina– but across the country.
A Dumpster Fire Fit for a King
Every week, there’s another rally or protest. And regardless of the theme, the message is clear– we are not going to let the country we love go quietly. There’s much more fighting to do, and there’s a ton of energy left in the tank to do it.
Packed Rooms and Empty Chairs
Charlotte constituents voiced their concerns over federal cuts to the things that matter most to them. The big problem? Their senator didn’t show. A cardboard cutout took his seat.
Fighting Tooth and Nail
Whether it’s one ballot or 65,000, there’s a deeper threat still present to every single voter in North Carolina and across the country.
Join Us Monday Morning to #ProtectOurVotes
Justice Allison Riggs will be speaking alongside impacted voters, and together, we will continue our fight to defend every North Carolinian’s fundamental right to have their ballot counted.
Timid Thom, Tariff Thom
The only thing more excruciating than Trump’s tariff policy has been Senator Thom Tillis’ weak response as the president intentionally turns the global economy into a raging dumpster fire.
NC Gun Safety Advocates Roll Up Their Sleeves
While the White House scandal has dominated the headlines, a lot of legislation moved through the North Carolina General Assembly. And a couple of the most consequential bills could end up being Senate Bill 50 and House Bill 5– Republican-sponsored permitless carry bills.
