(1,2) The Democrats need to reorganize today. Forget House and Senate, become the Party for America and choose the best Democrat for different roles. Choose a Press Secretary first. Choose someone to lead each department being dismantled who can explain the impact to Americans.

Federal health workers are expressing fear and alarm after a website called “DEI Watch List” published the photos, names and public information of a number of workers across health agencies, describing them at one point as “targets.” The website lists mostly Black employees.

Because of all of you who raised your voices and concerns, Trump backed down. Just because the decision has been reversed doesn’t mean the damage hasn’t been done or the threats to people is over. Let’s keep the energy up and make sure the American people are paying attention.

Brag moment about @indivisible.org. This hit last night. By this morning, we had a 16-page strategy doc, 4 call scripts, and a public brief that we used to drive pressure on congress to weaken GOP resolve and help Dems find their spines.

Trump just fired the NLRB's pro-worker general counsel and the agency's Democratic acting chair.
It's a huge victory for union-busters Amazon and SpaceX, who have been waging a legal crusade to dismantle the NLRB.

-deny unanimous consent to slow senate proceedings
-vote no on all cloture
-force quorum calls at every chance
It’s a constitutional crisis. There is absolutely no reason the Senate should be connecting business as usual.
