The House will vote TODAY on whether to advance devastating cuts to Medicaid that would destroy lifesaving programs for people with disabilities, children, seniors, and more.
Call your representative now and tell them to save Medicaid at (202) 224-3121.

Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

@amygarner.bsky.social Just FYI - I heard back from StoryGraph and they said you should be able to add as many books as you can with no fee. Perhaps it has changed since you last tried? Please let me know if this isn’t true!

Words we needed from sociologist Jennifer Walter.
Take a deep breath. This is marathon, not a sprint. Take breaks when you need to. Laugh. Spend time in community. And continue to do the work. #Resist

Today, we grieve & remember the 6 million Jewish lives stolen in the Holocaust.
The babies, parents, elders & loved ones.
On Holocaust Remembrance Day, we tell their stories, say Never Again, and reaffirm our commitment to rooting out antisemitism & hate in all its forms.

These women didn’t sit down, stay quiet, or ask for permission—they broke the rules and changed the world. Role models.
We should add Bishop Mariann Budde to the list.

Books I've taught and read to my students and own children to share stories of resilience, resistance, and reckoning. When we provide students with books that illuminate hard truths, we arm them with the knowledge to think critically, empathize deeply, and stand firmly against injustice. #BookSky

Celebrating the life & legacy of the #RadicalKing. These words from Dr. King resonate deeply with me as we gear up to resist this incoming administration: “The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice.” Let's continue to fight the good fight ...we shall overcome someday. #MLK
