An 11-year-old girl who is a U.S. citizen and has a rare brain tumor was deported to Mexico when ICE deported her parents. The girl’s condition has not improved. Trump’s State/Homeland have yet to approve her humanitarian request for treatment. Shameful.

Under Reagan's tax cuts, the average tax cut for the top 1% was 68x larger than the average cut for middle-class households.

Under Bush's tax cuts, it was 16x larger.

And under Trump, 36x larger. 

The GOP has always governed for the privileged few.

Lisa Murkowski is a sellout. And I’m an Alaskan.
