Even moderate Republican Senators beginning to cave on this tax bill. If you live in a state with one or two Republican Senators, call them NOW to say no to it. 202 224 3121. This isn't just about $; it's about justice & democracy. If we don't protect those things we'll lose them

She's right. These people are dismantling the very fundamentals of a democratic process.
UPDATE: We may vote on the Republican tax bill TONIGHT. We don't have the final bill. We don't have analysis from the Joint Committee on Taxation as to whether or not the bill would boost the economy. We don't have a Treasury Department analysis. This is OUTRAGEOUS!

If you have an FB page, instagram or twitter account, etc. then you have a platform. Use yours for big, important things and the universe will give you a big, important life. Don't wait for the spotlight; attract the spotlight, by doing something the light would want to highlight

Love is a participatory emotion. It's not just a feeling, it's a willingness to do love's bidding. And there is no love where there is no justice. Serve justice as a way of serving love.

GOP tax bill would increase deficit by $1.5 trillion. When all the $ they say will miraculously trickle down to stimulate the economy then doesn't, they'll say "Oh we have to cut the deficit!"- at which point they're go for the bare minimum entitlements still left. Dangerous idea

If you think GOP Tax Bill won't matter because it doesn't personally affect you, I suggest you consider that such a huge shift in wealth -- on top of that which has already occurred -- will be hugely destabilizing for all of us. It would have terrible ripple effects; stop it NOW!

Be sure you understand the underlying scam in the GOP tax plan scam. Supporters say if you give all that money to the very richest, they will then spend more to invest in businesses here, increase wages, etc (trickle down econ theory). BUT THEY NEVER HAVE and don't plan to now.

If your Senator is a Republican, call 202 224 3121 to urge them to reject the GOP Tax Bill. It ends student loan interest deduction + that for teachers who buy student supplies. Icreases taxes 400% for grad students but gives huge tax breaks to the wealthiest among us #justsayno

We're glorifying every micro aggression these days to the point where seriously huge transgressions seem less terrible. The power to accuse should be wielded proportionately, magnanimously and mercifully.
