Let's get that same kind of effort galvanized behind Black women who lost their jobs this year!

NOTE: Black women lost 319,000 jobs between February and July of this year, the only major female demographic to experience significant job losses during this five-month period. white men gained 365,000

Palantir software is being used to create the federal government’s first national citizenship data bank.

The Trump regime is attacking naturalized citizens and birthright citizenship.

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.

I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

Republicans in Congress have voted to devastate millions of people across our nation — kicking Americans off their health care, shuttering hospitals, eliminating food assistance, and raising costs.

This is Project 2025 in action.

🚨The GOP provision to DEFUND Planned Parenthood is staying in the Big Ugly bill. Clinics will shutter. Women will lose access to cancer screenings, birth control, and basic care.

I will be forcing a vote to try to strip it out.

Fight like hell. We need to kill this bill.

I hope my Republican colleagues will listen to their constituents and vote against this obscene legislation, which is a massive wealth transfer to the very wealthy from the working class.

If it was not clear before, it is undeniable now: the President, Congress, and Supreme Court no longer support and defend the Constitution.

BREAKING: The Supreme Court ruled public schools must allow opt-outs from any lesson parents believe will interfere with their child's religious development, including LGBTQ-themed materials.

This will make it difficult for public schools to teach lessons that may trigger religious objections.

Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson’s dissent hits the target. She is reminding us of the stakes in this case. And she is spot on.

Sen. Patty Murray on the Padilla incident:

"I have been here for more than 32 years. I have come to this floor often to speak out, to be angry, to be a voice for my people. I have never come this close to having tears in my eyes … We are a democracy, but we can lose that democracy."

President Trump's deployment of federalized National Guard troops is unnecessary, inflammatory, and an abuse of power.

The Trump administration is putting people in LA in danger and undermines the democratic principle that the military should not police civilians.

Every independent analysis is clear: the budget bill passed early this morning by the House GOP will gut essential programs like Medicaid and SNAP for working Americans, and make the ultra-wealthy richer.

We must do everything we can stop this bill in the Senate.

Overnight, House Republicans passed a budget that would give huge tax breaks to the ultra-wealthy at the expense of everyone else.

Now, it's on to the Senate.

BREAKING: The House passed a budget framework that would slash billions in Medicaid funding.

Medicaid is a lifeline for tens of millions of Americans, including people with disabilities, women, seniors, and children. The Senate must reject these dangerous cuts.
