Musk is on his way to becoming the world’s first trillionaire
He could have done so much good… or just paid a fair share of taxes
He chose to kill USAID, which has already caused the deaths of 600,000 people, two-thirds of them kids

November SNAP benefits are beginning to flow to Washington households.
Thanks to multiple lawsuits, and repeated court orders, hundreds of thousands of Washingtonians across our state finally have the SNAP benefits they need to put food on the table.

Shockingly, this administration continues to work to withhold food assistance from those who need it most. So much so that President Trump appealed, lost again, and now wants to take his effort to withhold food to the Supreme Court.

President Trump needs to stop fighting to keep food from hungry families, and focus on re-opening the government.

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.

It's no longer left versus right or even Democrat versus Republican.
It’s now democracy versus oligarchy. Freedom versus dictatorship. Right versus wrong.
Millions are awakening to this new reality — and they're speaking up.
The sleeping giant of America is roaring.

Congratulations to all the Democratic candidates who won tonight. It’s a reminder that when we come together around strong, forward-looking leaders who care about the issues that matter, we can win. We’ve still got plenty of work to do, but the future looks a little bit brighter.

Be loud, get out there, have your voice heard — and be peaceful.
We have a duty to express our outrage about the Trump Administration. We must do so in a peaceful way that doesn't give Donald Trump any excuse to activate the National Guard here. I'll see you out there.
