My bipartisan bill to release the Epstein Files passed in Congress and became law.
Now, it's up to the Department of Justice to actually deliver transparency and justice.
I won't give up the fight: release the damn files!

How can we use what's happening now to save democracy?
What good can come from what's currently happening?
We spend plenty of time focusing on the negative aspects of our political reality. Can we put that aside for just a minute or more and focus on what can be achieved?

This is a U.S. citizen being brutally abducted by ICE while his mom pleads for them to stop and the videographer cries for help. The Chicago police do nothing to stop it.
They will come for everyone, and they’re not even hiding that anymore. If you are not organizing and resisting yet, get started.

Democrats are here, ready to pass a funding bill that protects healthcare, lowers costs, and reins in Trump’s abuse.

Republicans just brought the House into session for a total of 2 minutes.
Democrats tried to bring up legislation to keep government open, keep children on their insurance, and keep health care costs from doubling.
Then they adjourned. The GOP will own this shutdown.
