The EEOC has delivered for American workers In 2024 alone, they returned $700M to workers—their best year ever But Trump is once again siding with the ultra-wealthy and against you It hurts workers It hurts women in the workplace who are STILL paid less than men It hurts you
A post from the Huffington Post reads: "The Democratic commissioners hadn't completed their terms before the White House notified them that they were being removed."

A headline from the Huffington Post reads: "Trump Fires EEOC Commissioners in 'Unprecedented' and 'Illegal' Move"
Trump is illegally dismantling the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) and in the process dismantling workers’ rights to advocate for higher pay, benefits, and workplace safety. This will hurt working Americans.
A post from Josh Eidelson reads: “Scoop: Along with NLRB GC Abruzzo, Trump has ousted NLRB member Gwynne Wilcox, despite law forbidding firing board members absent neglect or malfeasance”
Trump's order is blatantly illegal, shortsighted, mean-spirted, and just foolish. Even though a judge has blocked it for a few days, we know that Trump and Vought will keep pushing to get it done.
RFK Jr. must answer for the conflict of interests he holds with the anti-vaccine movement. According to his financial disclosures, he has made millions by recommending clients to law firms suing vaccine-makers.
RFK Jr. is the face of the modern anti-vaccine movement. He has made a living by actively fighting public health. And he must answer for spreading wild conspiracies.
Nobody should believe RFK Jr.’s 11th hour conversion on vaccines. When he comes before the Senate this week: Democrats will work to hold him accountable for the misinformation he has spread for decades.
Virtually any organization, and there are millions, that depends on federal grant money to run its day-to-day operations is now in danger because of Donald Trump’s cruel order.
