If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

RFK Jr. and his family stand to profit off lawsuits against vaccines. An HHS Secretary shouldn't have a financial interest in making our country sicker. I’m demanding RFK Jr. recuse himself from any work on vaccine policy while he has a financial interest in the outcome.

When I was a Hill staffer in 2009, a Dem trifecta was trying to pass universal healthcare. In response, Senate GOP released a memo detailing all of the tactics they in the minority could use to delay the effort as much as possible. I'm recirculating that 2009 GOP memo here. Take inspiration from it.

Some of the challenges of fighting anti abortion pregnancy centers: 1) They are a part of a major network of well resourced centers. 2) They are often connected to powerful legal organizations. 3) Anti-abortion pregnancy centers outnumber legitimate abortion clinics. #Reproaction

Anti-abortion pregnancy centers exist to dissuade people from having abortion, advertise "free" services, use deception, are often unlicensed to practice medicine, spread misinformation, receive public funding with little oversight. #Reproaction

This is grossly irresponsible reporting by the AP. What’s being offered is not a buyout. The deal is if you agree to resign in September you can continue working remotely until then. There is no buyout or severance.

Republicans just pushed a bill that spreads lies about abortions, criminalizes doctors using their best medical judgment to treat patients in need, and strips families' ability to decide how to act in situations where a baby won't survive long outside the womb. (1/2)

HR 29 DOESN'T secure our border. What is DOES do is subject people who have been arrested—even if never CHARGED OR CONVICTED—to mandatory immigration detention. That means someone FALSELY ACCUSED of even taking a candy bar would be detained. Even kids. Therefore I VOTE NO.

As a Marine Corps Veteran, Pete Hegseth’s nomination is deeply personal to me. His divisive rhetoric, lack of expertise, and disregard for core military values—merit, professionalism, and mission readiness—make him dangerously unfit to lead our Armed Forces. 🧵 (1/6)

People not elected to government should not have the power to reshape the government, especially people whose obscene wealth depends on the government functioning a certain way. This is not a hot take. It's just plain common sense.
