Look at what the president is doing: Attacking the judiciary. Attacking free press. Using fear to intimidate. Trying to normalize the U.S. military in our streets.

This is not normal. This is not American. These are attacks on the very pillars of our democracy.

Nearly half of Washington households qualify to receive financial aid through the WA Grant, which can be used for higher education, apprenticeships, or job training.

To access that money, all you have to do is fill out the FAFSA. studentaid.gov

Republicans gutted Medicaid and took no action on ACA tax credits, which will cut health care and spike costs for millions.

Now they’re hiding at home.

I’m here in D.C ready to work, calling on Republicans to come to the negotiating table and save our constituents’ health care.

Ice hires are angry people given control by the Trump Regime. I’m grateful for Chicago resisting peacefully. I live in Washington. They’re coming here, and I’ll resist.

Greg Bovino, Kristi Noem, and DHS need to answer for their unchecked attacks on Chicago residents.

ICE is an out-of-control danger to our peaceful communities.

The images from the Sun-Times today speak for themselves.

Cheryl Burt and I worked to secure funding for Minnesotans and people across the country to install new carbon monoxide detectors.

No family should suffer the loss of a child like Cheryl did, and this is an important first step in preventing deaths by carbon monoxide poisoning.

It’s been 21 days since Adelita Grijalva won her election, yet Mike Johnson still hasn’t sworn her in.

Why? Because she said she would be the 218th signature on the discharge petition to release the Epstein files.

Her constituents deserve a voice in Congress. Swear her in NOW.

There are No Kings rallies all the hell over Columbus this weekend. One at the park in my neighborhood, one at the Statehouse downtown, which is like a 15 minute walk for me. Should I go to the big one or the neighborhood one?

FBI agents are being pulled from their assignments to push Trump’s fascist immigration agenda. Instead of focusing on protecting our country from cybercrimes, drug trafficking, terrorism, and counterintelligence, the Trump Administration is using the FBI to kidnap our neighbors and friends.

Breaking news: Nearly a quarter of FBI agents across the country are currently reassigned to immigration enforcement.

The large number of reassignments reflect a vast reshaping of the agency and could put other priorities at risk.
