I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

As someone who experienced threats and harassment from armed extremists for over a decade, I have empathy for anyone who feels afraid of retaliation for free speech. But at the end of the day, we all must make a choice: back down or double down.

Activism is the antidote to fear. We will oppose every attack on democracy, freedom and the rule of law. And we will defeat fascism in America.

The federal minimum wage is currently $7.25/hr.

That is unconscionable.

It’s time we raise the minimum age to $17/hr.

Please stop them from destroying the middle class and our country with tax cuts for the rich.
I’m heading to the Floor to hold Republicans accountable on their budget — we will be here until morning.

Tax cuts for billionaires paid for by middle class families? My vote is a resounding no.

100 billionaire families spent $2.6 billion in the 2024 election.

70% of these donations went to Republicans.

Now, Republicans in Congress are gearing up to slash essential programs to pay for another round of tax cuts for the rich.

This is what oligarchy looks like.

The US spends almost twice as much per capita on health care as any other nation. Yet 85 million Americans are uninsured or under-insured and 68,000 die each year because they can’t afford a doctor.

Health care must be a human right, not a privilege. We need Medicare for All.
