I got back to my office after the vote last night and recorded this. There's no way to sugarcoat what happened. And my fear is that Trump gets stronger, not weaker, because of this acquiescence. I'm angry - like you. But I choose to keep fighting.

I fight through my tears everyday to keep you updated on Social Security & dismantling of major health care programs.
I want you to know there are MILLIONS of grassroots people working on this. The judicial cases DO matter. We must live in hope NOT fear. As someone on SSDI, I get it. NEVER GIVE UP!

When schools are run like businesses, our kids become commodities. We can't let profit-driven interests dictate the future of our children's education.
