Just a reminder that millions of Americans will lose health coverage under Medicaid cuts and new red tape. We must protect access to care and work together on real solutions that strengthen, not weaken, our health system.

I’m proud to be part of House Democrats’ legal working group. We’ve filed over a dozen briefs already—and we’re winning many of these cases. Our job is simple: defend the Constitution and protect checks and balances. https://t.co/TxHVKUafrw

“The times that we are in have forced us to think not just like legislators, but like litigators,” Rep. Jamie Raskin, the top Democrat in the House Judiciary Committee, told NOTUS.

I can’t control every voice in our national conversation, but I can control mine. I promise to keep using my position to bring people together rather than drive them apart.

We can choose community over chaos. We can prove that America’s promise is stronger than anger and division. And we must.

I cannot control every voice in our national conversation, but I can choose how I use mine. I will continue to use my position to try, in even the smallest ways, to bring people together rather than divide them further apart. To listen more. To show that disagreement does not

I know our political system feels irreparably broken, and I know trust is low. But I have seen firsthand that when we choose respect over rage, we can accomplish big things together.

To those who seek peace and understanding, now is the time to speak louder. We cannot let violence define our politics or poison our future.

America was built on the belief that we can fiercely debate ideas without dehumanizing one another. That we can cast different votes and still be neighbors, coworkers, and friends. That out of many, we are one.

Today marks 24 years since nearly 3,000 lives were lost on September 11, 2001. We honor the first responders, servicemembers, and ordinary Americans who sacrificed so much in the days and years that followed. In the aftermath of that horrific attack, neighbors helped neighbors

The attack on Charlie Kirk is horrific and disgusting. Violence has no place in American politics. We can debate fiercely and disagree passionately, but we must always resolve our differences peacefully and with basic respect for one another.

Trump’s approval is stuck underwater, but here’s the real headline: 78% of Americans support vaccines. While Trump and RFK Jr. undermine science, the vast majority know vaccines save lives—and want leaders who respect facts.

Trump's overall approval sits at 43%, while 78% of respondents said they support the use of vaccines. Inflation and the cost of living are the top economic concerns.

Trump’s attacks on the Fed aren’t just reckless—they’re dangerous. Even business leaders who once supported him are warning this could fuel higher inflation and higher long-term rates. I’ve heard the same from leaders here at home. This won’t end well.

While many CEOs have stayed silent during President Donald Trump’s attacks on the Federal Reserve, hedge fund billionaire Ken Griffin is speaking out about the dangers.

Don't forget: Republicans claim they didn’t gut Medicaid—just added “accountability,” and that’s a LIE. Their Big Ugly Bill slashes $1 trillion, imposes harsh red tape, and creates chaos that will push millions off their coverage. All to fund a billionaire tax break.

At a time when we need leaders rooted in truth and science, Kennedy is fueling chaos and putting lives at risk. We cannot normalize this behavior. RFK Jr. must resign.

Even Kennedy’s own family has said it plainly: his leadership is a danger to the health and well-being of every American.

The damage is not abstract. Since Trump empowered Kennedy at HHS, nearly $3.8 billion in NIH research grants have been terminated. That means fewer clinical trials, fewer cures, and less hope for families facing cancer and other diseases.

In his Senate testimony last week, he spread dangerous conspiracy theories about vaccines, promoted junk science, and sowed distrust in our public health institutions.

Today, I am joining those calling on Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to resign.

Trump is again trying to ignore the Constitution by refusing to spend money Congress already passed into law. The courts have said it’s illegal. Article I gives Congress the power of the purse—NOT the president. This cannot stand. https://t.co/BdSXyFSsz3

The emergency request could set up a major test of the president’s assertion that he has the unilateral authority to block spending budgeted by Congress.

The U.S. economy added just 22,000 jobs in August—the weakest growth since the pandemic era, with sectors like manufacturing and federal employment shrinking. We fought hard to rebuild after 2020. Families can’t afford to go backward. #Trumpflation
