Our government is supposed to be of the people, by the people, and for the people. Not corporations. It's time to overturn Citizens United and put power back in the hands of the people!

When everything is getting more expensive, you really can’t be more out of touch than Donald Trump.

Today, @repdean.bsky.social & I led a letter with 47 of our colleagues to Pres. Trump expressing serious concerns regarding Israeli actions in Gaza that threaten the ceasefire, including continued bombardment against civilians, destruction of property, and insufficient delivery of humanitarian aid.

REMINDER: Nearly every single Republican voted to gut healthcare and rip away the Affordable Care Act tax credits for millions.

Even Mitt Romney agrees. We need to tax the rich!

Dane County keeps on growing thanks to a strong job market and high quality of life!
New Dane County population projections see growth accelerating
Planners estimate Dane County could grow 58% by 2050, creating challenges for Madison-area decision-makers on housing and other issues.

The law is clear. Today's the day. What are they hiding?
Deputy AG Blanche just said the Trump DOJ will miss the Epstein files deadline.

He says "several hundred thousand" docs will be released today, "and then over the next couple weeks, I expect several hundred thousand more."

All files are required by law to be released today.

This doesn't do a damn thing to lower costs for working families.

BIG COURT WIN!

A federal court ruled that Trump can’t stop Members of Congress from conducting our congressional oversight of ICE facilities, siding with @housedemocrats.bsky.social who sued Kristi Noem and the Department of Homeland Security.

A majority of the House supports extending the Affordable Care Act tax credits. But Speaker Mike Johnson is sending the House home early for Christmas break.

Mike - bring this bill up for a vote NOW!

Last night on the @deanobeidallah.bsky.social show, @pocan.house.gov talked about how tariffs are impacting manufacturing jobs in Wisconsin and the Midwest.

Today, I stood with @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social and @housedemocrats.bsky.social to demand an immediate vote to extend the Affordable Care Act tax credits.

What’s the hold up, Speaker Johnson?

Donald Trump is openly threatening military action against Venezuela. But the Constitution leaves no room for doubt. Only CONGRESS has the authority to declare war.

Last week, we forced a vote and passed @golden.house.gov's Protecting America’s Workforce Act to restore collective bargaining rights for over 1 million federal workers.

We're calling on the Senate to immediately pass the bill and deliver for working people.

I had a wonderful conversation with my good friend and Senator, @baldwin.senate.gov.

She is the same smart, compassionate, hardworking person in the U.S. Senate as she was when we were on the Dane County Board of Supervisors together 30 years ago!

GREAT NEWS! Four House Republicans have joined Democrats to force a vote on extending the ACA tax credits!
The clock is ticking. In 15 days, health care costs will skyrocket for millions, while Speaker Johnson twiddles his thumbs.

We need just FOUR House Republicans to help us get a vote to extend the ACA credits. Keep the pressure on them.

For more than 20 years, the US has led the international HIV response.

But the complete dismantling of USAID and global health funding will lead to millions of additional infections and has already led to hundreds of thousands of deaths.

Today marks the one-year anniversary of the deadly shooting at Abundant Life Christian School in Madison. My heart goes out to the victims of the Abundant Life Christian School shooting, their loved ones, and our entire community.
