This week, the Trump administration took an axe to the Department of Education—reducing the critical agency to just half and laying off a thousand civil servants investigating sexual assault cases, defending the civil rights of students, and holding scammy colleges accountable.

Make no mistake: these massive cuts will make our nation’s schools and campuses less safe and our students less prepared to succeed—all while giving tax breaks to millionaires and billionaires. It’s wrong and goes against everything America stands for.

>> Tell Trump: Stop the cuts to the Department of Education NOW and protect students <<

Polling by The Century Foundation and Morning Consult shows that Americans agree: the federal government should be doing more, not less, to protect students and invest in their education. These needless cruel cuts do the opposite—and it’s low-income students, students of color, and students with disabilities who will be most hurt.

Stand with us and tell the Trump administration to STOP their assault on the Department of Education.

Last year, Donald Trump sued CBS, claiming that 60 Minutes edited their interview with Kamala Harris to unfairly influence the election. Does he have any evidence to back up his claim? Of course not. But that’s not stopping him from pressing on with his baseless lawsuit.

Like the authoritarians who came before him, Trump has declared that the free and independent press are the enemy of the people. Now, he’s using meritless lawsuits – and the influence of the presidency – to intimidate news organizations that publish facts and coverage he disagrees with.

ABC has already settled a $15 million suit and Paramount (CBS’s parent company) could be next. They’re already signaling that they’re willing to settle despite Trump having dubious legal standing and zero evidence of wrongdoing.

This has serious consequences not just for CBS and 60 Minutes but for all independent media in our country. If Trump is able to wield the power and influence of the presidency to silence media outlets, it will have a chilling effect on anyone who would consider reporting facts that the president doesn’t like.

It’s critical that we stand together and demand that media organizations push back against Trump’s intimidation tactics. Add your name today and tell Paramount and CBS to fight Trump’s meritless lawsuit >>

Congress is preparing to cut $880 billion from Medicaid while extending tax breaks for the wealthy. This is unacceptable.

The proposed budget would strip healthcare coverage for millions of Americans—including children, seniors, and people with disabilities—all to finance tax cuts for millionaires and billionaires.

Tell Congress: Reject cuts to Medicaid. Protect healthcare for vulnerable Americans.

I am writing to express my strong opposition to up to $880 billion in cuts to Medicaid as laid out in the current House GOP budget plan.

According to research from The Century Foundation, this $880 billion reduction is the equivalent of covering:

• All 31 million children currently enrolled in Medicaid
• 4.7 million older Americans in Medicaid
• 3.7 million people with disabilities in Medicaid

These cuts would be particularly devastating for residents in rural communities and working families across our nation who rely on Medicaid for essential services. I strongly urge you to listen to your constituents and reject any and all cuts to the Medicaid program.
