Time for some common sense gun laws. Democrats should introduce a bill named the Charlie Kirk common sense gun reform bill and make every Republican vote for it.

If you're represented by a Republican in the House, call their offices to demand they join this.
Be sure to tell them you know it just needs one more signature and it should be theirs.

Russ Vought, Trump's budget chief, came before @senateapprops.bsky.social today to ask Congress to codify DOGE cuts.
Here's what I had to say: Congress needs to REJECT these cuts and reassert its power of the purse.
To my colleagues: join me in defending the authority of Congress.
