Join us the next day for our weekly meeting which will cover the address: https://www.facebook.com/events/810228879161458/ \nFrom the national ISO Facebook event (https://www.facebook.com/events/1819444398348299/): \n“On January 30\, Donald Trump will give his first State of the Union Address. The speech comes after a year of a White House-led all-out assault on the working class\, immigrants\, Muslims\, women\, people of color\, LGBTQ folks\, people with disabilities\, and the planet. It has also been a year in which the “opposition party”–the Democrats–has failed to stop the attacks\, let alone offer an alternative\, whether on immigration\, health care\, foreign policy\, or anything else. \nWith Trump continuing the attack–on people with DACA and TPS\, and threatening war on the Korean Peninsula–the speech is sure to be outrageous\, terrifying\, offensive\, and absurd in that Trumpian kind of way. Socialist Worker will be responding on its Facebook page and live tweeting in response to the speech @SocialistViews\, and you’re invited to join the conversation. After the speech\, tune in for a Facebook livestream of the Socialist Response to Trump\, given by Alan Maass\, the editor of Socialist Worker. \nHere is a recent Socialist Worker editorial\, “Sick of a Shithole President”: https://socialistworker.org/2018/01/15/sick-of-a-shithole-president “ URL:http://northtexasactivist.com/event/socialist-state-of-the-union-denton-iso-watch-party/ ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:http://northtexasactivist.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/facebook_event_209029602987324.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20180130T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20180130T200000 DTSTAMP:20260424T013757 CREATED:20180118T011536Z LAST-MODIFIED:20180118T011536Z UID:2589-1517335200-1517342400@northtexasactivist.com SUMMARY:Dallas Right2Justice Community Dinner DESCRIPTION:Come join other families that want criminal justice reform in Dallas and eat some great food. \nThe dinner is free\, however you must RSVP to reserve your plate! \nRSVP by calling (214) 586-0867 and stating the name of the event\, your full name\, and the number of people you’ll be bringing with you. \n*This is an adults-only event.* URL:http://northtexasactivist.com/event/dallas-right2justice-community-dinner/ ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:http://northtexasactivist.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/facebook_event_1844527015558127.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20180128T123000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20180128T133000 DTSTAMP:20260424T013757 CREATED:20180107T212947Z LAST-MODIFIED:20180107T212947Z UID:2575-1517142600-1517146200@northtexasactivist.com SUMMARY:Conozca Sus Derechos!

Hurd DESCRIPTION:The Grinch Who Stole Christmas will make a special appearance to personally thank Rep. Hurd for voting in favor of the final version of the Tax Cut and Jobs Act. \nThe legislation repeals part of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and forces $25 billion automatic cuts to Medicare annually to give trillions in tax breaks to the richest households and multi-national corporations like Apple\, Pfizer\, and Wells Fargo. The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) predicts that the bill would result in 13 million more uninsured people and premium increases of up to 10% for millions. \nThe Republicans’ $1.4 trillion dollar final tax package provides most of its benefits to high-income households and foreign investors while raising taxes on many low- and middle-income Americans. The legislation will force cuts to Medicaid\, Medicare and the ACA and countless other public services to finance the tax giveaway to the wealthy and big business. In 2019 more than half the tax breaks in the bill will go the richest 5 percent of taxpayers. The richest one percent of taxpayers will receive an average tax cut of more than $55\,000\, more than the average annual income for a middle class family. \nConstituents will deliver coal to Representative Hurd\, share their stories and how cuts to Medicare\, Medicare and/or the loss of ACA will negatively impact them AND ask him to commit to protecting Medicaid and Medicare in the new year!
