Tuesday is Election Day in #AZ07! Gabby and I were excited to join so many volunteers to kick off a day of knocking doors for our friend, Adelita Grijalva. If you haven’t voted yet, make sure to return your ballot by the 15th or vote in person on Election Day.

Meanwhile China installs 100 solar panels every second
"It’s hard to think of a bigger self-own. We’re effectively raising taxes on the country’s main sources of new power at a time when electricity prices are already rising,” @jessedjenkins.com told Rogé Karma: www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc... 🔌💡
The Most Perverse Part of the ‘Big, Beautiful Bill’
The Republican megabill could be setting America up for the worst energy-affordability crisis since the 1970s.

Netanyahu began this war with his attack on Iran. In the process, he sabotaged US-Iran negotiations on nuclear issues and assassinated Ali Shamkhani, Iran’s lead nuclear negotiator.
The US must not be dragged into another illegal Netanyahu war – either militarily or financially.

I just filed an emergency motion in court to immediately block the ongoing and unnecessary militarization of Los Angeles.
The federal government is turning the military against American citizens. This is unprecedented and threatens the very core of our democracy.

(🚨) MAJOR BREAKING NEWS: TRUMP DECLARES L.A. RESIDENTS TO BE IN “REBELLION AGAINST THE AUTHORITY OF THE GOVERNMENT OF THE UNITED STATES”
This declaration may well be a prelude to martial law. He’s illegally federalized the Guard in California and this looks very like the pretext he was waiting for.

Let me thank my Senate colleague @vanhollen.senate.gov for his trip to visit Kilmar Abrego Garcia.
Mr. Abrego Garcia was wrongfully imprisoned. As the Supreme Court indicated, there was no basis for his warrantless arrest.
The Trump admin must obey the law. He must be returned home.

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.
