Trump is causing grocery prices to rise, letting healthcare premiums increase, and ignoring what matters to our communities. It’s no surprise his supporters with Latinos has plummeted.

The shift could spell trouble for Republicans looking to cement support with this group in future elections.

Every American should have access to quality, affordable healthcare. But Trump and Congressional Republicans are focused on gutting our country’s healthcare system and leaving patients with nowhere to turn. Tell your lawmakers to protect the care that millions of us depend on!

Our peaceful movement is only getting bigger and bigger. “NO KINGS” is more than just a slogan; it is the foundation our nation was built upon. Born in the streets, shouted by millions, carried on posters and chants, it echoes from city blocks to rural town squares, uniting people across this country to fight dictatorship together.
Together, we will stand up, speak up, show up, and vote—because when we fight, we win.
