Hunter, like every trans person, has a right to accurate identification. We've taken Trump to court to block this policy barring trans people from passports with our correct gender markers.

The SAVE Act will require voters to provide unnecessary documentation to vote. This bill would make voting harder for people of color, women, and low-income people — groups of people who already face more difficulties at the polls.

First, #Elon fired the people that maintain our #NUCLEAR ARSENAL, then scrambled to hire them back; But didn't have any way of contacting them when they cut off their government email. Now, they have done the same with people who were fighting the #H1N1 #Birdflu. How many times must we do this?

NEW: The DOJ has ordered Mayor Adams's charges to be dismissed. This announcement leaves urgent and unanswered questions about what Adams and Trump may have agreed to behind closed doors. It makes the Mayor's recent push to undermine NYC's laws to protect immigrants all the more alarming.

ND MAGA filed HCR 3020, forcing state workers to "acknowledge the Kingship of Jesus Christ over all the world." Cited source? The Bible (shocking). Reads like a sermon. 5 of 12 GOP sponsors also condemn marriage equality. Christian nationalism is here. #ChurchAndState #ChristianNationalism

Government funding runs out on March 14. Republicans can’t pass a bill alone, so Democrats have real leverage here. We’re calling on Democrats to commit to withholding their votes and insist on an end to the Trump-Musk coup rampaging across the government.

With 5 airplane crashes on his watch, Sean Duffy says DOGE will "UPGRADE" our aviation system. Elon wants control of the planes. If he controls the planes, he controls the flight logs. That means anyone he favors can move anonymously, no records and no oversight. It’s a power grab. #Elon #FAA

45 is getting outmaneuvered by China after gutting #USAID. China was ready; they’re stepping in, expanding their influence, and building alliances with nations in need. Foreign aid was less than 1% of the budget, but now #China is gaining ground, strengthening #BRICS while the U.S. loses power.

It’s alarming that Elon Musk has access to government payment systems used to deliver Social Security and Medicare benefits. He also drove out the senior career official at Treasury responsible for preventing a potential default on U.S. debt. Congress must investigate.

“The goal [of allowing arrests at schools] is to make life untenable for immigrant families, and schools in New York should not be colluding with this agenda,” said the NYCLU's Emma Hulse. “They should be taking active steps to remind students and families that they are welcome.”

New York law enforcement have zero obligation to carry out ICE’s bidding — and it’s unconstitutional for the Trump administration to try to force them to do so. Despite what Trump and his friends at ICE may think, they're not above the law.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world. Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

It's clear that the Trump administration was not counting on people knowing their rights when they began their campaign of mass deportations. Know this: New York City remains a sanctuary city, committed to protecting immigrants from discrimination and unlawful raids.

If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it. Of course, this is a personal decision for everyone and it’s your choice. But these offers are a rush job. The legality is questionable and this admin does not keep to its word. They aren’t firing for a reason.

Mr. RFK Jr. SIR! When asked if healthcare is a human right, the answer is YES; This SHOULD BE OBVIOUS! NOT "I can't give you a 'yes' or 'no' answer." If you can’t say that, you don't belong. Human dignity isn’t up for debate. Leadership is standing for the people. #HealthCare #HumanRights
