13 years ago after the horrific murders at Sandy Hook elementary school, I expected lawmakers to pivot, to do what they needed to do to protect their constituents & schools across the country. Because it was the right thing to do. Today I realize that it was up to us to organize and make them do it.

The GOP is trying to repeal with Equal Credit Opportunity act so that banks and lenders can discriminate in extending credit to women & minorities again.

In every way possible, the GOP is trying to chip away at the financial independence of women.

20 years ago, after the shooting at Sandy Hook elementary I was certain that lawmakers would rally for gun control and legal reforms to protect our youngest and most vulnerable: the literal future of our nation. I still can’t believe they didn’t.

Another phase of dismantling the government: this is so bad for the American people. It’s further proof that this administration cares only about corporate welfare and not about all the Americans who make up the fabric of this country and deserve the protections of government.
Donald Trump is trying to shut down the CFPB, an agency that has returned $21 billion to Americans who were cheated by big banks and giant corporations.

I joined my fellow @banking.senate.gov to break down what it means for you.

Trump is siding with the scammers. We’re fighting back.

Why are Americans fed up with Republicans on affordability? A story in three parts.

1: Families are struggling under sky-high housing costs.

2: The Senate UNANIMOUSLY approved a bill to lower housing costs.

This shady deal was BLOCKED.

A private equity company tried to abuse the bankruptcy system to slither out of paying what they owe to seniors neglected in its nursing homes.

We stayed in the fight and the deal was blocked.

Next, we need PE out of health care altogether.

He did this while also bombing boats into oblivion “because they were likely carrying drugs bound for the US”. So does he care about the potential harm of drugs or doesn’t he?
In the latest mind-blowing misuse of his pardon power, Trump is pardoning Juan Orlando Hernandez—an international drug trafficker responsible for 400 *tons* of cocaine sent to the U.S.—who was also the President of Honduras.

Right before Thanksgiving, Trump secretly commuted the sentence of David Gentile—a Ponzi schemer who stole over $1 billion from his clients—freeing him from prison after just *12 days.* This is another grotesque abuse of the pardon power that should outrage all Americans. youtube.com/shorts/xXNA1...

Private equity is looting our malls, doctors' offices, and nursing homes.

Heck, you name it, and private equity has probably already bought it.

Imagine if every time they lied their nose grew? No, really, imagine it.

Sadly, it’s not that easy to prove to the masses that they’re lying with every breath, but now I’ll picture that every time they speak and it will help me deal with the rage I feel each time they disrespect us with a lie.

He’s so gross and has no game. His birthday, June 14, is also flag day. He could have made Flag Day the new holiday and we wouldn’t have been able to criticize him in quite the way we are. It would still be vile that he replaced these two dates, but he could have enjoyed our “misplaced”!criticism.
Donald Trump just removed Martin Luther King Jr. Day and Juneteenth from the list of free entry days at national parks.

They are being replaced with Trump’s birthday.

Haha. What a joke. They have no shame. Trump has no loyalty either, so serves him right.
The audacity of Cuellar running for office at all after what he did is astonishing.
Trump rages that Henry Cuellar didn’t pay him back for a pardon by switching parties, blasting Cuellar for a “lack of LOYALTY.”

In other words, Trump admits he was trying to use his pardon power to buy Republicans a House seat.

Funny they should bring up choice to consumers when they are all for big companies absorbing other competing companies which literally eliminates choice to consumers.
