Once again, @gluesenkampperez.house.gov of Washington state voted for the SAVE act. Again. AGAIN. A bill that will impact Americans living abroad and their ability to vote, and women. Marie is a collaborator and a traitor. To women, to freedom, to democracy. #washingtonstate #clarkcounty

BREAKING: The House passed the SAVE Act, which requires Americans to show a passport or birth certificate to register to vote. Over half of all Americans do not have a passport. Millions more do not have access to their birth certificate. 21 MILLION citizens will be impacted.

If Trump can claim a "national emergency" to disappear legal residents without due process, what’s to stop him from doing the same to U.S. citizens who oppose him? No one is safe — not even people legally in the country, possibly not even American citizens. Fascism is here.

Can we get more of this? “The Japanese American National Museum will ‘scrub nothing,’ Fujioka said, and instead will highlight the importance of DEI. “Our community is based on diversity, equity is guaranteed to us in the Constitution, and inclusion is what we believe in,” Fujioka said.

Why does my generation have to face another recession every 10 years or less? It's like a clock with Republicans. They get into office. I take a hit. They leave, and my money goes up. Weird how that works.

The U.S is the wealthiest country in the history of the world. We should not have the highest rate of child poverty of nearly every major country on earth. We should have the lowest. It's time to end this international embarrassment & create an economy that works for all.

A strong trade union movement improves the standard of living for all people. There is a reason why we are the only major country not to guarantee health care for all or have paid family and medical leave. We must grow the trade union movement in the United States.

Booker: "I confess that I have been imperfect. I confess that I've been inadequate to the moment. I've confess that the Democratic Party has made terrible mistakes that gave a lane to this demagogue. I confess we all must look in the mirror and say 'we will do better.'"

Critics say ODOT is hiding a 10-lane freeway that will siphon funds from other needs for many years. Metro Council President Lynn Peterson praised ODOT, saying if this was any other state, I-5 would be 9 lanes in each direction and that ODOT's plans are just a "tweak."
