Rep. AOC: On the way here, we got a very interesting piece of news: some of the Republicans whose districts we visited just warned their leadership that theyāre not sure they can vote for Medicaid cuts now.
Thatās you, Montana.

Thatās you, Arizona.

Weāve got them on their back foot. But our job is not done.
We will rally every corner of the U.S.
We will not stop until they actually vote no.
Weāre not going to let them trick us with gestures and strongly worded letters.

Imo, the main thing to fight for is to undo citizens united, ie, ban private money from campaigning. That's worth taking to the streets for.
At this point in fascist America, strikes & protests, etc are the only things that can work.
