On April 2, the Supreme Court will hear Medina v. Planned Parenthood South Atlantic, a case that could allow states to block Medicaid patients from accessing care at Planned Parenthood health centers. This means millions of people—especially Black, Latino, and Indigenous communities, LGBTQ+ people, and those with low incomes—could lose access to cancer screenings, birth control, STI testing and treatment, and more.

Take action with us! 

Join Planned Parenthood Federation of America, Planned Parenthood South Atlantic, and Planned Parenthood of Metropolitan Washington, DC outside of the U.S. Supreme Court on Wednesday, April 2, to hear from storytellers and providers about how this case could harm patients, and make our voices heard!

Join the D15 Democratic Caucus monthly meeting to hear from our representatives and plan upcoming events and activities. All D15 Democrats are welcome!

We hear about the Department of Education all the time — but do we really understand all that it does? The Trump Administration wants to eliminate it – this isn’t a hypothetical situation! It’s a serious threat to the future of education in our country and the power to stop it starts with us. Join us for an eye-opening conversation with Sharon McMahon — America’s favorite government teacher and the voice behind @SharonSaysSo — as she breaks down what the Department of Education really does, why it matters to every student, parent, and community, and what’s at stake if it’s shut down. We will also hear from fired federal workers who will share an insider’s perspective on why the department and their work was vital for our schools. Let’s come together, get informed, and take action. Our schools, our kids, and our communities are counting on us.

Register at Hands Off! March on D.C. · Mobilize

Donald Trump and Elon Musk think this country belongs to them.

They're taking everything they can get their hands on—our health care, our data, our jobs, our services—and daring the world to stop them. This is a crisis, and the time to act is now.

🚨 On Saturday, April 5th, we're taking to the streets in Washington, D.C. to send a clear message: Hands Off! 🚨

This mass mobilization day is our message to the world that we do not consent to the destruction of our government and our economy for the benefit of Trump and his billionaire allies. Alongside Americans across the country, we are marching, rallying, and protesting to demand a stop to the chaos and build an opposition movement against the looting of our country.

A core principle behind all Hands Off! events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values.

As Americans, we cherish our families, love our children, and look out for others as our own. We have always stood in solidarity with those defending their freedom.

Let’s unite for democracy, peace, and freedom!

RALLY FOR JUSTICE! DEFEND CIVIL LIBERTIES!

The federal government has unlawfully fired workers simply because they think their political beliefs are different from the Trump Administration. This is a political purge, and we won't stand for it.

On March 26th, the ACLU is standing alongside these fired federal workers and filing a class action complaint to demand their reinstatement. And we need YOU to show up to support us. Join us for a rally to call out this blatant attack on civil liberties and make sure the world knows: We will not be silenced.

Save LIfesaving Research, Healthcare, & Education

By cutting funds to lifesaving research and medical care, the Trump administration is abandoning families who are suffering and costing taxpayers billions of dollars. These cuts are dangerous to our health, and dangerous to our economy.

On Tuesday, April 8, 2025 workers across the country are standing up and demanding NO cuts to education and life-saving research.
