Children’s Hospital of Colorado is fighting a subpoena from the DOJ (AG Pam Bondi) and the Department of Health and Human Services (Robert F Kennedy Jr.) about their hospital records release regarding patients who received gender affirming care. The same WH (Trump) that screams don’t take Tylenol!

At a time when performative politics has become the norm, we’ve tried to do something different:
To show up — everywhere.
To listen.
And to deliver results.
We hosted events in 50 different cities this year — including yesterday in Timnath.
And we’re just getting started!

The Trump administration’s attempt to dismantle NCAR is outrageous and unlawful — which is why we are leading the fight to stop it.

Jack Smith has requested that Jim Jordan release the entire video of his 8-hour closed-door testimony which he gave this week to the House Judiciary Committee.
Will Jordan release the video to the public?
If not, why not?

218 members signed the discharge petition to force a vote to extend ACA tax credits.
If Speaker Johnson refuses to bring forth the vote, he’s telling the American people loud and clear that rising health care costs are acceptable to him.

Newsom: You can see it; you can read between the lines over the last few weeks.
He’s nowhere to be found. The guy’s out on an island. Honestly, I felt like he was away last week and he didn’t even matter.
You saw him today trying to get back in the game: “Hey, what about me?”

The president of the United States thinks asylum-seekers come from mental asylums.
He says it in almost every interview where the topic of migration comes up.
How is this not 25th Amendment territory? How is he not an embarrassment to this entire country?

Happy Halloween. Trickle-down economics is nothing more than a cruel hoax designed to enrich corporations and the super-rich. For working people, it's been 40 years of all trick and no treat. Enough.
