Orlando City Commissioner Tony Ortiz just switched from Republican to Democratic.
“The Republican Party is not the party I signed up with... The marginalization of Latinos and immigrants—many of whom have helped build this country—is not leadership. It’s fear-based politics.”

This is so heartbreaking and makes nothing better and no one safer. It is the punitive act of an administration that values fealty over human health.
A top scientist at Harvard who has spent years unraveling the mysteries of tuberculosis woke up Tuesday morning and discovered an order from the federal government telling her to halt her research.

AOC: I saw on Fox, Jeanine Pirro says that they found so many babies and two year olds and four year olds receiving social security. I got a notice for you Jeanine Pirro: those babies receive social security because their parents died. That’s not a waste. That’s humanity. That’s America.

Proud of you, Chris – not an easy feat. Stories like yours are exactly why it meant a lot to pass the ACA.
Because of the ACA, thanks Obama, I was able to afford rehab for my alcoholism. I’m going on year 9. I wouldn’t have been able to afford it otherwise. I am truly thankful. I’m just 1 of the millions the ACA has helped.

Tonight an unbelievable **34,000 people** gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back.
This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008.
Also bigger than the 2024 DNC.
And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too).
