Benjamin Netanyahu targets the southern Gaza city of Rafah, killing 22 people, including 18 children. This brings the death toll of innocent children to nearly 15,000. Every 10 minutes a child is killed in Gaza. The bloodshed is too much to bear. It has been less than 24 hours…
I am voting ‘no’ because Benjamin Netanyahu is in direct violation of U.S. law. His interference in U.S. humanitarian operations in Gaza violates section 620I of the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961. This act is known as the Humanitarian Aid Corridor Act. As my esteemed colleagues…
.@POTUS’s policy to pause new LNG exports will lower electricity bills for Americans and it's good for the planet. Without this policy, Americans could end up paying 10% more for electricity. We can’t let Republicans reverse it.

59 years ago, 600 brave souls marched from Selma. They crossed the Edmund Pettus Bridge toward the promise of a future that was more equal, more just, and more free. Today, the fight for freedom is not over. Together, we will continue to organize and make good trouble.
Let's make some good trouble.
Fifty-nine years ago, brave Americans sought to cross a bridge named after a Klansman in Selma, Alabama, to reach the other side of justice. Today and every day, we honor that legacy by fighting to protect the right to vote and uphold the integrity of our elections.
