No matter where someone was born, the United States should never tolerate inhumane treatment. Yet right now, detainees in ICE custody are facing conditions that are simply unacceptable in any country that claims to uphold human rights, let alone one that prides itself on freedom and the rule of law.

Medicare for all, paid leave, universal childcare. Busting up big corporations and tackling Wall Street’s greed. Getting big money out of politics. Supporting unions and fighting for higher wages. If Dems want to win back working people, this is the agenda they must support.

There was a time when a U.S. president targeting LGBTQ+ lives by cutting suicide hotlines would've sparked all-out war from Democratic leadership. Outrage...action...accountability. Like I said—there was a time.

Instead of CUTTING Social Security benefits, Congress should INCREASE payments by $200 per month and extend the solvency of the Social Security program by 75 YEARS. How? Make the wealthiest Americans pay a fairer share. I’ve got a bill to get it done.

We’re being ruled by a president who openly admits he doesn’t like to read. He prefers bullet points over self-reflection or real analysis. A man unwilling to engage with the complexity of consequences is making decisions that will shape and damage our future for decades.

Compton, CA: A masked, heavily-armed man wearing body armor jumped out of a SUV today to kidnap a local resident. He forgot to put the vehicle in park, causing it to roll down the street damaging other cars. He jumped in the vehicle (which had no platess) and drove off without identifying himself.

Congress has the sole power to declare war – full stop. The idea that the US would potentially deploy a bunker buster bomb in Iran w/out Congressional approval not only flies in the face of our Constitution, it would also rope us into another forever war that Americans do not want.

Some Senators are floating the idea of a relief fund to help rural hospitals hurt by Medicaid cuts. A relief fund could help hospitals, and preserve access to care for rural residents. But, a hospital relief fund does nothing for people who lose Medicaid and end up uninsured.
