Here's the list of those who betrayed this entire nation. So many people suffer and die because of these 8.
EIGHT Senate Democrats have voted to advance the funding measure so far after the deal was reached:
Cortez Masto
Durbin
Fetterman
Hassan
Kaine
King
Rosen
Shaheen
If the existing 52 Republicans hold, that's 60 — enough to advance this agreement. Final vote still to come.

Every single one of these clips was taken today in downtown Portland. Portland doesn’t want or need a federal takeover. If Trump insists on sending federal “resources” he can start with funding health care, bridges, affordable housing, and wildfire protection to name a few.

Celgene kept the drug’s price low when it was initially intended for AIDS patients.
But once the drug could be used more widely for cancer patients, the CEO told investors there was now “plenty of room for very substantial increases” in price.

After losing his vision, Greg wasn't able to work anymore, could no longer afford rent, and was evicted. The Trump administration now plans to forcibly remove Greg and hundreds of other unhoused people living in Deschutes National Forest, with no plans to help them find housing.

I know $7.25 an hour isn’t just low—it’s unlivable. That’s why I helped introduce the Raise the Wage Act with Bernie Sanders to boost the minimum wage to at least $17 an hour and support the families who keep our communities running.

Did Trump just say he will put tariffs on medications?
Americans already pay more for prescription medications than anywhere in the world - and he wants us to pay EVEN MORE?
Americans want cheaper drug prices. Trump is giving us higher taxes instead.
