The acting commissioner of the Internal Revenue Service plans to resign following the agency’s data-sharing agreement with the Department of Homeland Security, which supports the Trump administration’s efforts to deport undocumented immigrants.

More than 50,000 people in Gaza are dead. 114,000 have been wounded — two-thirds of whom are women & children. The entire infrastructure has been destroyed. Much of that devastation has been done with bombs that the U.S. supplied to the Netanyahu war machine. We are complicit.

The GOP is starting to feel the pressure. Even in very red states and districts, Republicans are facing more constituent questions on the impacts of the Trump-Musk coup. We need to keep this momentum going. There’s another congressional recess next week — let’s get to work: indivisible.org/muskorus

Today I introduced my first bill as a Senator. A commonsense, bipartisan piece of legislation designed to protect people and their homes from natural disasters. Let's get it passed.

If you don’t think that at some point he’s going to show more interest in the 5,044 nuclear weapons he controls, you’re as deluded as the people who thought he’d never tank the stock market and the economy.

What’s next? We’re glad you asked. NEXT WEEK: There’s another congressional recess. With Republicans plotting to gut Medicaid to pay for tax cuts for the rich, the stakes are high — and both your senators AND representative will be back home. Sign up now to take action locally. 👇

Planting lettuce requires precise work. A machine carrying 4-6 persons will drop the seedlings into pre dug holes in each row but there is a farm worker who follows behind to esnure the plants are grounded and also to catch any missed holes. #WeFeedYou

Rivers rose and flooding worsened Sunday across the sodden U.S. South and Midwest, threatening communities already badly damaged by days of heavy rain and wind that killed at least 18 people.

#HandsOff Heard Island really came out for this!

San Francisco gets an A+ for presentation and form.

Just so we’re all clear: The economy is spiraling under Trump’s new tariffs, essential programs like Medicare/Medicaid are under attack, and yet all Republicans want is to pass more tax breaks for billionaires… Got it.

I'm fighting to make sure California farmers aren't caught in the crossfire of another Trump trade war.

The people who whined about the cost of eggs are telling people to buy during the dip of the stock market. So you have money for investing, but not for a dozen eggs? Inconsistent much?

Yesterday, we sent a historically big message to Trump, Musk, and the GOP — and we also sent a signal to all those who agree with us but have spent the last few months feeling shaken, hopeless, and afraid. #handsoff

Israeli strikes on the Gaza Strip killed at least 32 people, including over a dozen women and children, local health officials said Sunday, as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu headed to the United States to meet with President Donald Trump about the war.

This embroidery in Evanston, IL, isn’t the quickest-reading sign of the #HandsOff protests, but it sure does capture the public mood.

Reminder: Elon Musk took taxpayer money to build his empire, then turned around and cut jobs, gutted services, and fought unions that benefit everyone else.

Wow!!! Commitment ❤️💪🏻

Erika sent this pic of her coworker near the almond orchards of Bakersfield CA. Irrigators use these type of all terrain vehicles to get from one field to another. These produce less dust than regular vehicles which helps keep the trees clean. #WeFeedYou

💚 Climate action requires all of us, not just climate experts. Here’s how you and your students can be more climate literate: buff.ly/wQabAgD

As Trump’s taxes on imports drive prices up, more families will need to turn to food banks to make ends meet. Here’s the problem, Trump is cutting funding for programs that help food banks stock their shelves.

Excellent!

San Diego Hands Off! Safe,huge and peaceful.

California’s funding from the U.S. Department of Agriculture for Local Food Purchase Assistance (LFPA) has been completely terminated for next year. This irrational slashing of funds and other cuts will not only hurt our farmers but also the families who need food banks and school meals to thrive.
