April 8, 202561 people are facing RICO trials in Atlanta for alleged involvement in resistance to the construction of Cop City. The State uses imaginary associations and crimes, framed as RICO, as a means to break solidarity and momentum when movements are strong. Anti-repression is a response that uses an alternate imagination to strengthen solidarity and resistance.
In Spring 2025, a nationwide tour will visit over 60 cities to discuss the history of the Atlanta forest, the resistance to Cop City, history of RICO, ongoing legal updates and facilitate discussions on anti-repression and movement defense.
Through this tour we aim to share the lessons we have learned across struggles, and adapt to the evolving repressive forces so that we can continue to move bravely together.

April 12, 2025Medicaid funds the jobs of those who care for our loved ones in hospitals, nursing homes, and in-home care. Our nation is already facing a healthcare staffing crisis – slashing the funding for nursing home workers, home care providers, and hospital workers will make this crisis worse. It also funds the jobs of public service workers who provide social services, benefits services, education services and more. Federal Medicaid dollars are critical to state budgets, funding on average nearly 30% a state's budget, and paying for the services that keep communities running like special education, K-12 services, in-home care for seniors and people with disabilities, and mental health services.
Tell Congress - HANDS OFF MEDICAID!!
