Trump's war on Iran raised gas prices by more than a dollar a gallon. And utilities costs are hitting working families even harder, all while oil executives pocket record quarterly bonuses. #WeCantAffordTrump

End Citizens United
End Citizens United@StopBigMoney·
BREAKING: SB 2471 has been signed into law! It’s the first of its kind in the nation and renders the Supreme Court’s Citizens United decision irrelevant in Hawaii. This is a win for the movement to get big money, especially dark money, out of politics. apnews.com/article/corpor…

CAP's @thmoore: “Hawaii is taking a brave and bold step to get corporate and dark money out of America’s politics. It will send a powerful message that will be heard loud and clear across the Pacific and across the mainland." bit.ly/4udwNDA

Does Hawaii's S.B. 2471 violate the Supreme Court's Citizens United decision? No. The first-in-the-nation bill does not regulate a corporation's power to spend in politics—rather, it no longer grants it. More FAQs about S.B. 2471 ⬇️ ampr.gs/3QEambX

Under the surface of the Trump administration's pro-crypto policies is a self-enrichment scheme that has seen Trump and his family profit handsomely, including from deals with foreign nations. ampr.gs/42uGykJ

NEW: Corporations are treated like people when it comes to political speech. But corporations are born of state law, not biology. So what happens if they are born without political spending powers? Hawaii wants the Supreme Court to give an answer. theatlantic.com/politics/2026/…

The Trump administration's misleading report on anti-Christian bias represents the views of a narrow, highly partisan slice of Christians who are intent on forcing their theological doctrines onto people with different beliefs. ampr.gs/436OGbe

While Americans are seeing rising costs in every aspect of their lives, Trump is focused on… 💰 A $1 billion golden ballroom 🔵 Painting the reflecting pool blue 🥊 Hosting a UFC fight on the White House lawn for his birthday 🏎️ Running an IndyCar race down Pennsylvania Avenue 🏛️ Putting up a giant arch in his honor ⛳ Converting public golf courses into luxury resorts Priorities.

Big Oil is making billions of dollars from Trump’s war. While working families foot the bill at the gas pump. Believe Donald Trump when he says he doesn’t give a damn about the American people.

The Trump administration's report on anti-Christian bias cherry-picks facts and distorts reality on abortion, LGBTQ+ equality, and vaccines in order to advance a partisan agenda and polarize Americans. ampr.gs/436OGbe
