You can argue the merits of deporting Marcelo—a young man brought here at age 5—if you want to. But this is someone we should be proud to call American. He’s solid on every level. And if you’re really a Christian, you should be lifting him up, not casting him out. Listen w/an open mind—and heart.

Looooool, get on the bus this morning to take us from the hotel to the Ford Museum and all the driver and convention assistant can talk about is the meltdown yesterday. This thing has legs, and if the Dems are smart, they’ll hammer it incessantly.

This travel ban is personal to me. If it had existed when my parents immigrated from Iran, I wouldn't be here today. My constituents and I know firsthand what it feels like when our families are torn apart by xenophobic and cruel bans. We will fight this with everything we have.

Right now, Trump’s Tax Scam is being rewritten by Senate Republicans before heading back to the House for a second vote. Every change to the bill (and every day they take) makes it that much harder to pass both chambers. This is why we’re focused on delaying the GOP’s process as much as possible.

Harvey Milk was a selfless patriot, devoting his life to serving his country and fighting for LGBTQ+ rights. He’s earned his recognition in our history books and on this Naval ship. Removing his name during Pride Month is wrong, but we won’t let it erase his legacy.

The American public deserves to know that those serving at the highest levels of government are free from financial conflicts of interest. Needless to say, this administration appears to be awash in such corruption. I'm determined to get answers.

The GOP hid a reckless provision to shield Trump officials from contempt of court in their Medicaid-slashing megabill. We must get Republican senators on the record about that sneak-attack on democracy — and push Democrats to disrupt the GOP’s anti-democracy agenda with every tool at their disposal.

“I saw an iridescent biosphere teeming w/life..I didn’t see the economy. But since our human..systems treat everything, including the very life-support systems of our planet, as the wholly owned subsidiary of the global economy, it’s obvious from the vantage point of space that we’re living a lie.”

Another win!!! Now release him. A federal judge just ruled that the law used to detain Mr. Khalil is likely unconstitutional. Why? Because it’s too vague and was never meant to apply to someone like him a U.S. resident who never left the country.

Scores of staffers at the White House National Security Council have been abruptly dismissed as part of a sweeping overhaul that slashes the staff from over 300 to just 50. The move shifts the NSC’s role from policymaking to simply carrying out the president’s directives.

This is incredibly heartbreaking. Another example of what women have to deal with when seeking medical care. When we aren’t listened to or taken seriously when we know that something is wrong. When the arrogance of doctors is pitted against those who know their bodies… people.com/professional...
