Hi friend,

We’re ending the week with a meaningful legal victory: A federal judge just blocked the Trump administration’s attempt to end humanitarian parole for people from four countries—including those fleeing crisis and conflict. Add your name to applaud the ruling!

From town halls in GOP districts to growing calls to investigate insider trading after Trump’s tariff pause, people are showing up and speaking out.

As always, we’re here to bring you the good news that keeps us moving forward. Let’s dive in. 💛
