Dedicated to electing candidates who will protect the freedom to vote and ensure everyone has a voice in our democracy

Our democracy is worth the fight.

Right now, our only option is to continue to work to defend the freedom to vote, protect the voice of every American, and fortify our rights and liberties so our government serves all the people.
Why is political violence on the rise in this country?

The problem starts with Donald Trump and MAGA.

This is obscene and way past dangerous.

Wildly corrupt move by these Republicans.

After cutting health care and food assistance for millions of people, they added in a slush fund for themselves.

Democrats in the House are fighting to remove it.
Senate Republicans snuck a corrupt bargain into their funding bill that provides millions of dollars in payouts funded by taxpayers.

I'm leading the debate on the House floor on legislation that would eliminate this provision. Follow along:

▶️@RepJoeMorelle understands the cost of corruption on American families: Rising grocery prices. Higher energy costs. Unaffodable health care.

Thank you for leading the charge to ban stock trading and to crack down on corruption! 💪
I support banning Members of Congress from trading stocks. That ban should extend to the President, Vice President, and Supreme Court.

The cost of corruption is passed down to Americans. It has to stop. Join me for the Committee on House Administration's hearing on the STOCK Act:

The costs of corruption are real.

Lowering prices and creating real economic opportunity requires bold changes to a corrupt system.

We must hold politicians who abuse the power of their office accountable.

Hey Megyn Kelly,

14-year-old Eloise would like a word:

“If my voice makes you uncomfortable, good…
because the minute adults start defending predators by defending the age of a child, you’re not protecting the truth, you’re protecting the predator.”

Sound up! 🔥🔊

🚩Republicans, aware they are going to lose, are attempting to cast doubts about the election.

They tried to overturn the will of the voters in 2020. They are at it again.

Get the money out of politics.

End the corruption!
Most Americans agree we need to get money out of politics. If that takes a constitutional amendment, then that's what we have to do. And if that's going to take years, then it's all the more reason to begin pushing now.
