Medicare for All would save $450B a year.
Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.
Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.
It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.
It’s about priorities.

Two-thirds of California's power comes from clean energy.
For 9 in 10 days so far this year, we were 100% powered for some part of the day by clean energy.
The Golden State has become the world's fourth-largest economy because of our climate leadership, not in spite of it.

Beautiful 💜
A happy life on my own
quiet mornings
no rush to be anywhere.
Hot cup of Tea
warms my hands
music plays in the kitchen
& I smile at nothing in particular
I’ve learned the weight of being steady
how soft it sits
when no one
asks for more
The world spins
As I breathe
and for once
I know u
are too
quiet mornings
no rush to be anywhere.

For almost four decades, Nancy Pelosi has served the American people and worked to make our country better. No one was more skilled at bringing people together and getting legislation passed – and I will always be grateful for her support of the Affordable Care Act.

To say he’s an embarrassment is putting it mildly.
Summary of Trump’s speech to the UN today:
1. Your countries all suck.
2. None of you know what you are doing.
3. The US is better at everything.
4. All because of me.
5. I’m right about everything.
6. You should listen to me & do what I say.
7. And give me lots of awards.
