WHAT: This is a statewide DFL Senior Caucus Rally called “Stop the 100 Days of Destruction!” It is organized to protest cuts on Social Security, Medicaid/Medicare, and Veteran Health Care. Trump and Musk In the first 100 days of their administration have prioritized destruction of programs essential to the well-being of seniors, people with disabilities, and veterans. Our focus is on saving:
- Social Security (they have reduced access, eliminated offices, created data privacy breaches, and potential benefit cuts with DOGE actions)
- Medicaid/Medicare (they are proposing $880 Billion cuts which is devastating to in-home and nursing home care for seniors, children and others)
- Veterans’ Health Care (DOGE is making deep staffing cuts)
RALLY HEADLINERS:
- Minnesota Secretary of State Steve Simon
- Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison
- Minnesota Senate Majority Leader Erin Murphy
- Minnesota House Majority Leader Jamie Long
- DFL Party Chair Richard Carlbom
Additional speakers include state legislators, DFL and union leaders, and individuals affected by Trump’s policies.
Rally partners include the DFL Disability Caucus, DFL Veterans Caucus, and DFL Rural Caucus.
