Happy Independence Day, TX-30.
Let this day be a reminder that democracy doesn’t protect itself.
We’ve got to keep showing up, speaking out, and standing firm—until freedom feels real for everyone.

The tariff saga and its impact on disabled people cannot be separated from the administration’s brutal cuts to Medicaid.

Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes.

As Trump tries to dismantle the Department of Education, remember that his plan to cut the corporate tax rate to 15% would give the 100 largest corporations a tax cut larger than the entire department's K-12 budget.
