🚨Measles cases in the US surge 35% in ONE WEEK—now at 222 in 12 states. We’re nearing last year’s TOTAL of 285, and it’s only March. Two deaths already, both unvaccinated. Texas is the epicenter with 198 cases. The CDC’s weekly data lags, so the numbers are likely even higher.

TELL THE TRUTH. The Republicans’ proposed continuing resolution to avert a government shutdown has a bunch of poison pills. Example: It zeroes out the Toxic Exposures Fund to care for veterans exposed to burn pits, Agent Orange, and other toxic substances. Heartless MONSTERS who HATE our vets.

Trump is beating up Zelenskyy to force him to take a "ceasefire" that would permanently give 20% of Ukraine to Russia. Imagine, Mr. Trump, if Mexico demanded 20% of the US starting with Florida and Mar-a-Lago? Would you say I'll take that deal?

Hiding from their constituents wasn’t enough — now we have a House Republican admitting that he doesn’t want to hear from the people he represents.

The other thing we must keep in mind is that Putin has not only attacked Ukraine, he attacked the Democratic Party of the United States of America and our candidate for President in 2016, helping Trump win. Trump is siding with someone who launched an incredible attack on the Democratic Party.

Donald Trump's tariffs on our largest trading partners are a tax on working families. And when people lose their jobs because of it, that will be the biggest tax of them all.

Trump has signed an executive order to clear-cut 280 million acres of trees (even endangered species) in National Forests and other projected lands. Everything this administration does is to troll Americans who didn't vote for Trump. Like, say, environmentalists.
