Portland — a city recognized for its civic activism, creativity, & commitment to democratic values — is now subject to an unjustified deployment of federal troops. This action undermines local authority and threatens the very freedoms our democracy is meant to protect. Full statement: bit.ly/4gODhDc

Senator Mark Kelly: This is a fight over the cost of your health care. Does your rural hospital stay open or not? Does somebody's grandmother get pushed to the curb when she was in the nursing home? Those are the things we are fighting for—and the president says no.

Millions of acres worth of public land would be put up for sale in the Senate version of Trump’s big, ugly bill.
