Pope Leo calls for ‘deep reflection’ about treatment of detained migrants in U.S.
“Many people who have lived for years and years and years, never causing problems, have been deeply affected by what is going on right now,” Chicago-born pope says.

Trump has broken his own record for longest shutdown… and working families pay the price.
It’s long past time for him and Mike Johnson to actually come to the negotiating table and try to get a real deal done.

And if it's ever needed again, I won't hesitate to reinstate an emergency declaration.

Mike Johnson: “I'll make a comment about the tragedy in California last night…It's just a blatant example of Gavin Newsom's immoral leadership and the fact that they will do anything to try to rig the system to win.”

Trump has now overseen the two longest government shutdowns in history — with the current one reaching 36 days.
He ran on fixing a broken system and helping working people.
Instead, he’s making the system even worse and shafting working people by gutting the social safety net.

Last night was a thumping from coast to coast. Across the country, voters rejected chaos and cynicism – and chose leaders who are focused on the cost of everyday life.

So wonderful to spend the day connecting with Virginians as they head to the polls. It’s the people I meet in every corner of the Commonwealth that inspire my work.
Less than 2 hours until polls close. Let’s do this, Virginia!

Open enrollment for ACA healthcare plans has started, and enrollees are seeing what their premium costs will be next year.
Without subsidies, one couple will see their monthly costs increase from $495 to $2,168 — a 300% increase.
This is what Democrats are fighting to prevent.
