If I had a band or a label, I would do a punk cover of "No More Kings" from Schoolhouse Rock. And then I would gather a bunch of people to write a whole album of next-generation Schoolhouse Rock songs, with songs about Social Security and Medicaid and NOAA. I am not kidding in the least.

Section 504 prohibits discrimination against disabled people & guarantees equal access to anything (services, programs, buildings, etc.) that receives federal funding. It paved the way for the ADA. The sit-in that got it passed is an extraordinary moment in US history.

I am incandescent with rage.

Many people are asking me if Elon Musk is stealing tax-payer money or using our private information to enrich himself?

I’m a Member of Congress on the committee for Government Oversight and I can’t tell you that he’s not. That’s a problem.

Right now, Senate Dems are holding the floor in protest of Vought's nomination. They don't have the power to prevent the confirmation vote tomorrow evening if the vote continues to be along party lines, but they are speaking out, which gives us about 24 hours to call our Senators. CALL NOW.

Murphy: "We need to act like a real opposition party in the middle of a constitutional and democracy crisis. That means we should not be moving forward nominees or legislation in the Senate. Ds should not be giving votes to nominee or legislation in the Senate until Rs get serious about this crisis"
