It’s a terrible bill. It will literally kill people. The most vulnerable among us will suffer as the wealthiest benefit. It’s perverse. I wish there were something I could do. But alas, I am only a U.S. Senator from Alaska whose “no” vote would kill the bill. So I voted yes. You get it.

"I’m sorry if I’m not adequately sympathetic to Lisa Murkowski’s plight, but she understands the consequences of her actions. She says the vote was difficult– she voted for it! That’s not difficult. You don’t get credit for doing the hard thing when you don’t actually DO the hard thing."

Bezos does not need a tax cut. A tax cut would not change his life in the slightest.

But stripping Medicaid and SNAP from millions of Americans will KILL many of them.

The BBB is awful.

There’s a growing problem you’re not supposed to question: masked agents detaining migrants. Not in war zones...here...on U.S. soil. When power hides its face...it stops being accountable. When you can’t ID authority...you can’t challenge it. 1/5 🧵

Raise your voice for every baby who shouldn’t go hungry.

Raise your voice for every senior who shouldn’t be kicked out of a nursing home.

Raise your voice for every American who shouldn’t lose their health care.

Make those calls. Pressure your senator. Keep it up.

The Supreme Court issued a stay, effectively ruling, for now, that the Constitution no longer applies, at least not to immigrants. Fast-track deportations with no opportunity for judicial review violate the fundamental principle of due process, especially for people already on U.S. soil.

Lots of documented evidence proves immigrants, including those undocumented, are significant contributers to the US economy and other institutions. They do the hard dirty jobs to produce American food. In 2022, they paid $96.7 billion in taxes. They hold $299 billion in spending power... ETC!

This is really short, so easy watch.

I've mentioned how pumping up the infrastructure is what saved us all from the great depression. This is another facet of that.

Lift people out of poverty, and you help the country! Tax breaks for rich do NOT benefit the people!!!

The Bove allegations should be treated as something akin to Watergate, or Iran Contra. The administration was attempting to do something they *knew* was illegal (anticipating the courts saying as much), and then trying to COVER IT UP. Only here instead of it being run out of the WH or NSC, it’s DOJ
