I’m glad federal workers are getting their jobs back, the government is open, and we'll have a health care vote soon. But I'm fighting to remove a ridiculous, last-minute provision GOP leadership added to the funding deal to give Republican senators personal $500,000 windfalls.

Willfully ignoring science - especially in vital areas like health, safety, defense, education, climate, and the economy - is a recipe for disaster. We are crippling our nation by dumbing down our children, just to coddle those who are fearfully insecure in their religious faith.

Sadly, this MPD-ICE arrest is a nearly daily occurrence in DC now.
The DC police officers we pay with our tax dollars are being used to disappear our own neighbors and rip them away from their families.
All while our so-called leaders lie and pretend they are powerless to stop it.
