Donald Trump promised lower energy prices.

Instead, energy prices are rising at DOUBLE the rate of inflation.

And now Trump cut clean energy programs meant to shield American consumers from volatility in oil markets and SLASHED bill assistance for low income Americans.

When I was 19, pre-Roe, I needed an abortion.

Because of my college connections, I had a network of white feminist women who helped me get to New York for care.

I never looked back, I was never sorry, and I will never stop fighting to restore abortion rights for all.

Jeffries: This is the lesson you've drawn? From the election in November? This is your priority? That you want to bully a member of congress? As opposed to welcoming her to join this body?

There is now a very real possibility of a 220R-215D House breakdown (net +2 for Dems vs. '22 result), w/ Trump seeking to pluck at least three GOP members (Gaetz, Stefanik, Waltz) for administration jobs (217R-215D?).
