Today, the Clear Horizons Act has its first committee hearing.
New Mexico families are already paying higher costs from wildfires, smoke, and extreme weather. Clear Horizons is about planning ahead —protecting family budgets, clean air, and our future. #ClearHorizonsAct #ActOnClimate #NMLeg

This is the Deputy Attorney General of the United States saying “it is not a crime to party with Epstein” in response to a question about prosecuting men who “had relations” with minors. Sir, yes it is a crime. And, prosecuting these crimes is your job.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Today, federal agents shot and killed a man in Minneapolis in plain sight. This is why we are fighting back against this lawless administration.
Millions are asking us to do something, while our colleagues stand in the way of basic accountability. We must stand for the people and their rights!

This can’t be repeated enough. Not only won’t they investigate, they may never even tell us who did this.

I’m seeing posts from people (outside of MN) about how US citizens should carry their passports.
And let me say that *inside* MN, we are calmly responding to requests with: “No, I don’t have to show you any documentation.”
Because that’s how you protect everyone, regardless of immigration status.

Under Lee Zeldin, EPA is allowing levels of pollution we have never seen the agency permit before. He's completely corrupting EPA's mission. Instead of protecting people and the environment, Zeldin is letting polluters get away with polluting MORE.

I think it’s important to point out: ICE does NOT have the same authority as a police officer. They do NOT have the power to enforce laws, only to engage in their specific tasks.
IE: they don’t do traffic, etc. impeding traffic is not a penalty ICE can enforce against

This war and extra-judicial kidnapping is patently illegal and unconstitutional. Political leaders on both sides must condemn it. It’s not about whether Maduro is a tyrant but whether the US is still governed by laws and the Constitution. As if this morning, we are clearly not.

Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%.
As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.
