The largest SNAP cuts in history went into effect yesterday, eliminating or drastically cutting food assistance for millions of Americans. And it’s all to pay for more tax cuts that primarily benefit the super-rich. Trickle-down economics isn't just a hoax — it's cruel.

Having lived through a decade of harrowing events as a child, I'll say it's *good* to imagine the day you'll move beyond the reach of a cruel person—even if that moment won't fix everything. They want to convince you of your powerlessness, but that's not how this story ends.

Medicare for all, paid leave, universal childcare. Busting up big corporations and tackling Wall Street’s greed. Getting big money out of politics. Supporting unions and fighting for higher wages. If Dems want to win back working people, this is the agenda they must support.
