Cutting this program puts young people’s lives at risk. LGBTQIA+ Americans deserve equal care and support, not gratuitous insult and injury. We’ll keep fighting on their behalf against RFK Jr. and all others who have lost moral touch.

What exactly did House Republicans just vote for? -14 million Americans to lose their health care -18 million kids to lose their free school meals -5.4 million people to lose food assistance It’s not about waste or fraud or abuse. It’s about a bigger tax cut for the rich.

While Trump/Musk gleefully slash Dept of Veterans Affairs and fire more veterans than any President in history, Trump is spending at least $45 million on a military parade on his birthday. Thanks, but no Tanks. Such birthday military displays are best left with the dictators who crave them.

Another big win in court. No, Donald, you can’t play with the lives of foreign students by arbitrarily revoking their visas and, no, you can’t treat universities like pawns in your Gangster State and retaliate against them for defending themselves.

Part of the bill that Republicans jammed through includes something you may have missed: Defunding Planned Parenthood. There's nothing "pro-life" about defunding breast exams, pregnancy tests, prenatal care, and so much more. Over 1 million women could lose access to care.

Republicans are playing all sorts of word games to try to hide the fact that their “tax plan” slashes Medicaid and takes health care away from millions — all to pay for tax cuts for billionaires like Elon Musk. The American people aren’t buying it.

This kind of action from the administration is exactly why I am working to prohibit Homeland Security funding from being used to unjustly revoke student visas. Students—no matter where they are from—should be concerned about their studies, not the actions of this reckless administration.

As a few folks have said, having the White House say that Trump is in a private event is a big admission under Trump v US which says official acts are immune & unofficial private acts ARE NOT IMMUNE. ⚖️🧐

One senior reflects on the Trump administration revoking Harvard University's ability to enroll international students. A federal judge has blocked the move from DHS, at least temporarily allowing Harvard students to retain their legal status.

The House GOP took a chainsaw to American working class families last night in order to make the rich richer & to add almost FOUR TRILLION to the debt. 🚨CALL THE CAPITOL NOW: (202) 224-3121 and tell your Senators to vote "NO" on Trump's Big Brutal Bullshit Bill.🚨

This intolerable attack on Harvard’s independence and academic freedom is plainly government retaliation for Harvard’s speech standing up for itself and the rule of law. America must rally to the side of Harvard and its students in court, in Congress and in our communities.

In their bill, Republicans passed steep cuts to food assistance, Medicaid, and put Medicare at risk. For me, that’s a moral line. It makes no sense in this time of incredible struggle when families are having such a hard time making ends meet to go after food assistance and Medicaid.

Trump is hacking away at academic freedom, the hallmark of American universities. This latest assault is another illegal effort to bully those who will not bow down to his attempts at extortion. Harvard must not back down & other colleges and universities must back them up.
