I know that America is not a Christian nation because if it were, we’d welcome immigrants, there’d be a job of foot washer at the boarder, Citizens United wouldn’t exist, the rich would be chased, the hungry would be fed, the homeless housed. Truth would be spoken to power. The last would be first.

The Cato institute being one of the heroes of our time may not have been on my bingo card, but boy have they stood up for what we used to call decent values.
ICE says I cause assaults on ICE by reciting facts about ICE’s recent shooting but refuses to link to the thread. Only posting a picture. ICE lies and ICE hides. You can read the facts for yourselves

As I told @newrepublic.com, "Once last week, twice today, ICE has picked me up and thrown me on the ground. Honestly, it doesn’t compare to what our neighbors who are trapped inside the Broadview processing facility are going through. They’re committing crimes against humanity there."
I’m a Congressional Candidate. I Was Assaulted by ICE.

Our democracy is not self-executing. It depends on us all as citizens, regardless of our political affiliations, to stand up and fight for the core values that have made this country the envy of the world.

"The only way they can win is if they cheat."

While state lawmakers bent the knee and pushed through Trump's gerrymandered maps in the Texas House, we spoke with Texans about what it means to them. Here's what they said.

💉🧵We know you have many questions about COVID-19 vaccine. Here’s what we know and our best guess as to how access will be restricted.

TL;DR: best guess: COVID-19 vaccine is likely to be restricted (at least) to those 65+ and those under 65 with risk factors.

Today I stood in solidarity with the over 1300 State Dept public servants who were fired by Trump and Rubio. These are American patriots who’ve dedicated their lives to advancing US interests & values. 

This is America in Retreat. Our adversaries are smiling. A bad day for America.

Just took to the House Floor to speak in support of a country where everyone can afford to live the good life.

And in strong opposition to Trump’s One Big Ugly Bill that is devastating to everyday Americans.

We will not be silenced.

Nearly half of all the rural hospitals left in Missouri are at risk of closure — the proposed Medicaid cuts will likely finish them off.

Closing these hospitals not only harms the people in these communities, but it will also hasten the death of these communities.

When I was in college, before the ACA, I went to the planned parenthood in my college town to get access to affordable birth control.
🚨The GOP provision to DEFUND Planned Parenthood is staying in the Big Ugly bill. Clinics will shutter. Women will lose access to cancer screenings, birth control, and basic care.

I will be forcing a vote to try to strip it out.

Fight like hell. We need to kill this bill.

This is rad. So proud of our EPA colleagues who spoke out from inside - calling out this admin’s attacks on science, public health, and environmental justice.

300+ signed, and counting. Some put their names on the line. Others stayed anonymous. All of them spoke up.
