Tonight, I will vote to block arms sales to Israel amid the famine in Gaza.
Starving children and innocent civilians to death is a moral atrocity that cannot abide the conscience of those who believe in human dignity.
The Netanyahu administration must change course.

Andry Hernández Romero, the innocent make-up artist imprisoned without trial for 4 months in El Salvador by the Trump admin, is FREE.
He was wrongfully accused of being a gang member because of his “mom” and “dad” tattoos, and illegally sent to El Salvador without due process.

Veteran photographer Michael Nigro was shot in the head with a non-lethal bullet while covering anti-ICE protests in LA. "It felt very very intentional," Nigro tells NPR, "a chilling effect to convince us to go away."
