You can still call your Senators, regardless of how they voted, and tell them you want someone else as minority leader/minority whip.

This object capitulation by Schumer and Jefferies was appalling – – and so unnecessary and humiliating because they were winning the battle for public opinion and have the cards to win and save healthcare. I agree: primary any Dem who supports the failed leadership. Do you?

Democratic leaders have failed us again. It's time to get new leaders.

You think we're stupid? You greenlit this deal. If you couldn't stop Dems from breaking away, then you don't deserve to be the leader.
I will not support the Republican bill that’s on the Senate floor because it fails to do anything of substance to fix America’s healthcare crisis.

The ocean has been hoarding heat. Now it is building up a massive 'burp.'
Even if humans cut emissions enough to reduce global temperatures, new research shows the Southern Ocean could kick warming back into gear.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.

The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.

People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.

And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

The Senate might fold, but I sure as hell won’t.

Families are getting crushed by rising costs & as these healthcare tax credits expire, it’s only going to get worse.

And now the Senate wants us to “trust” them to fix it later with a debate on a bill, maybe?

I’m a F-NO!
