This was today. Fitzpatrick is currently one of 4 voting against the rule. Pressure works. Don’t let up.

Every one of these deaths is on the hands of Elon Musk and Marco Rubio. History should never forget.
A man with a scorpion bite.
A woman with cholera.
A diabetic who needed insulin.
A 3-year-old boy.
They all died when the U.S. stopped sending medicine to Sudan.

The energy provisions in the Republicans' One Big Horrible Bill are truly so bad! Who wants this? The country's automakers don't want it. Electric utilities don't want it. Data center developers don't want it. Manufacturers in energy intensive industries don't want it. 🔌💡

I am glad that today the governor signed a new law repealing New York's ban on providing food and water to people waiting in line to vote. However, it should be clearly noted that this was the result of successful litigation brought by the Brooklyn NAACP -- which the state fought and lost in court.

I don't use "impeachment" lightly. Aside from Trump, Marco Rubio **PIPED UP** to endorse flouting a court order, and said the only person who can make foreign policy is the president, which is incorrect in more ways than he can count. High crimes, dereliction of duty, constitutionally illiterate.
Absolutely not an exaggeration. High crimes and misdemeanors committed and endorsed in the Oval Office on live television.
The president is conducting a press event with the primary purpose of flouting the decisions of the courts and the letter and spirit of U.S. law. It is a press event to celebrate the Constitutional crisis and serial violation of human rights he has set in motion.
