NEW: The First Circuit has denied the Trump Admin’s motion to stay in our SNAP case. This means that full benefits should be paid after the SCOTUS stay expires. The court does not mince words about what the government has done here. Congrats to our clients, co-counsel, and @democracyforward.org.

President Trump’s political games are delaying people’s ability to access essential nutrition. But our team is working around the clock – and is back in court today – to demand accountability.

If the Trump admin appeals this order, it will show all of America that it is doubling down on depriving 40+ million people of food. We have secured this win for the American people, SNAP will be available, and we will continue to block efforts to play politics w people’s lives @democracyforward.org

We're living through a moment when the foundations of our democracy are being tested. But we, the people, are pushing back.
I was honored to join @govpritzker.illinois.gov for a conversation on how the American people have come together to build community and protect our democracy.

We cannot normalize the President’s attempts to militarize our cities, our homes.

Our team at @democracyforward.org is in court every day on behalf of the American people who rely on the government to deliver services that keep them safe.
That’s why we’re suing the Trump-Vance admin for unlawful attempts to fire federal workers.

Stephen Miller’s attacks on a judge that President Trump himself appointed, and the American people as a whole, must stop.
As I told Alex Witt today, it’s time to demand that the president explain why he is allowing Miller to drive strategies that ignore the Constitution and are unAmerican.

President Trump lied on the campaign trail because he knew how deeply unpopular Project 2025 is.
Now he's vowing to implement its agenda.
Our team has been fighting it in court since Day 1 and we will continue doing so to protect people & the institutions they rely on.

The work for people and democracy is both local and global. And a way to find hope is to find the doers. I found many of them today at the Clinton Global Initiative, including my friend @staceyabrams.com.

The DOJ posting this – as if it exonerates them from covering up their handling of the Epstein Files and deceiving the American people – is on par with the total lack of transparency we’ve seen from the Trump-Vance administration.
This is exactly why our team is suing. We will get the truth.

One of the most formative experiences I had in law school was going with a group of volunteers to New Orleans as part of a pro bono corps to help families navigate accessing FEMA funds.

Are we going to lose our economy over the Epstein files?
I joined @weeknightmsnbc.bsky.social to discuss President Trump’s latest unlawful action of purporting to fire a federal reserve board governor and what it means for working families.

Last week, we saw an escalation in retaliation by the President and his administration, revoking security clearances from career intel officials and firing one of our Generals for delivering intel he disagrees with — this makes Americans less safe.
