Once again, the far-right Supreme Court is allowing Trump to circumvent Congress and gut the Department of Education. This is an attack on million of kids across every school district in our country.
DOGE was never about waste, it was always about cashing in. It's shameful that the Pentagon is sending another $200 million of our tax dollars to the richest man alive for a chatbot that—less than a week ago—was praising Hitler.
A Trump-appointed judge reversed the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau’s rule that banned medical debt from credit reports.
No one chooses to get sick. Medical debt should not exist and should never haunt someone financially.

The federal minimum wage has been $7.25 an hour for the past 16 years.
That's an annual salary of $15,080. Starvation wages.

So-called "shadow banks" helped cause the 2008 financial crisis. So why is Congress working to expand shadow banking—via stablecoins—w/ the GENIUS Act? If Walmart and Amazon can issue their own stablecoins, this creates a tremendous concentration of commercial and financial risk.
All Syrians deserve real safety. The Syrian government must end the violence, hold perpetrators accountable, and commit to an inclusive transition that protects all of Syria's diverse communities.
The Israeli government's rogue bombing of Syria must end. The same occupying power that ethnically cleansed Syrian Druze from the Golan is no protector.
Congress will give billionaires and corporations trillions of $$$ in tax breaks. They will invest trillions in war and death. But tell us we can't keep children out of poverty and homelessness? This is what Dr. MLK called "spiritual death."

In 2024, nearly HALF of corporate $$$ in federal elections came from crypto companies.
Today's industry-friendly crypto bills lack basic consumer protections, expose our economy to profound risks, and fail to address President Trump’s staggering crypto corruption.
I voted NO.

Kicking 17 million Americans off their health care wasn’t enough for Republicans. Now they want to cut funding for PBS and NPR, reproductive health, refugee programs and more.
Our country is obsessed with war. Every year, Congress votes to invest in death and destruction instead of health care, housing, clean air and water, or ending child poverty here at home.
I will not vote to send another $831.5 billion to the Pentagon.

Starvation is being used as a weapon in Gaza. At least 66 children have starved to death. Israeli forces are blocking aid, shooting hungry Palestinians, and turning Gaza into a killing field, with full backing from the Trump Administration. This is a war crime.
Breonna Taylor should be with us today. She would have just turned 32. This decision is an insult to her memory and her loved ones.
Her life mattered. Black lives matter. We must dismantle these systems of white supremacy that kill our neighbors and treat them as disposable.

Five years since we lost Congressman John Lewis, our leader in the fight for justice. He taught us to never stay silent about the things that matter.
Real change does not come from those in power, it comes when the people rise up and demand it, just like he did.

Treasury Dept has documented 4k+ wire transfers totaling $1.5 billion+ connected to Epstein. I offered an amendment requiring a public report. Victims and the American people deserve the full story, including why Chase and BoA only reported the activity after Epstein's arrest.
This week is Black Maternal Mental Health Week. To our Mamas, remember you are not alone.
