The Senate’s vote proves that all the work we’ve done as a movement to pressure our elected officials works–but the fight’s not over. The House still needs to act. Tell your representative NOW: Congress should control trade and tariffs, not the president.

Tell Congress: Take Back the Power of the Purse
Tariffs should be decided by the people’s representatives. Not handed down like royal decrees.

No paid protestors here, just two American patriots peacefully exercising our First Amendment rights to stand up for democracy and American values.

I canceled Disney+ because Disney/ABC is colluding with Trump to strip away our First Amendment rights to free speech.

In the past few years, we have seen too many murders of prominent figures and members of the public, with perpetrators & victims across the ideological spectrum. Today it was another school shooting and assassination of Charlie Kirk.

We shouldn’t have to live in a country where these things happen.

On #YomHaShoah, we mourn and honor the 6 million Jews murdered in the Holocaust. We remember not only the lives lost, but the dangers of unchecked hate. A strong, inclusive democracy is essential to ensuring safety, dignity, and freedom for Jews and all people. #NeverAgain

We must do everything in our power to ensure fair elections in 2026, which is why we must stop H.R. 22 — the GOP voter suppression bill we call the "Silencing Americans Act."

A House vote is expected later this week. Make sure your representative hears from you ASAP: indivisible.org/resource/cal...

I am so proud of my friend - holding the Floor still - 21 hours and counting.

Courage and leadership is just what our country needs right now - and Senator Booker is delivering.

I'm heading back to the Floor to support him as he keeps shattering records.
I’ve taken the Senate floor and will speak for as long as I’m physically able to lift the voices of Americans who are being harmed and not being heard in this moment of crisis. Watch here:

The latest round of workforce firings at CDC and other agencies will leave gaps in U.S. public health. “The goal seems to be to undermine the leadership of these agencies,” says APHA's Polan. The Nation's Health reports on the impacts: publichealthnewswire.org?p=hhs-layoff...

If you don't want to see this horrible garbage happen in every future high-stakes election, make sure it demonstrably fails in the Wisconsin Supreme Court race by helping elect Susan Crawford

(2/2) Does anyone have recs for feature films, documentaries, or TV shows that do a good job of telling the story of the civil rights movement and how it led to policy change? No books please, as this person is not a big book person. Thank you!!

(1/2) Someone was recently telling me that they didn’t learn much about the civil rights movement as a kid. They felt this partly explained their lack of faith that regular folks could effectively fight Trump through various forms of nonviolent activism, as they didn’t have examples to reference.
