NYU Langone is refusing to provide gender-affirming care. This is unacceptable.

If hospitals follow Trump’s orders to erase the trans community, they should not receive a single dollar in city grants or contracts.

New York must stand with trans New Yorkers. Period.

Ted Lieu: “Donald Trump is in the Epstein files thousands and thousands of times. In those files, there are highly disturbing allegations of Donald Trump raping children … of Donald Trump threatening to kill children. So I encourage the press to go look at these allegations.”

Epstein files show the entire anti-trans movement was coordinated by a handful of wealthy eugenicist pedophiles. Anyways here's why democrats should hear them out.

people turned out in the middle of a pandemic and democratic leadership didnt meet the moment
I know this is a crazy notion, but perhaps we need more people to turn out and vote Democratic so that our 'leaders' can oppose the GOP on all fronts AND ACTUALLY MAKE A DIFFERENCE.

If they force us to choose between calling for the resignation of imbecilic bigots or normalizing hateful religious incitement, that’s not a tough one. This fanatic should spare his constituents any further embarrassment and resign.

It might be easier to get people on board with voting for the Democratic nominee, whoever that is, if all Democratic voters got to weigh in on who becomes the nominee. Now it's just "here is who the people of IA, NH and SC have chosen for you." My primary vote has literally never mattered.

Bloomberg says we've spent $3B on Trump's invasion of Venezuela.

Which is 6X more than the cancer, Alzheimer, diabetes, and heart disease cures they've cut to pay for it.

It’s also kind of wild that Israel was founded right after WW2 started, to America expediting the Nazis to asylum at the end of WW2 just for us to be dealing with a Nazi resurgence at the hands of Israel.

History, man.

Today, I'm proud to announce that we've erased over $1.1 billion in medical debt for more than half a million Illinoisans.

No one should be forced to choose between life-saving care and feeding their families.

Stay tuned for more news on affordability in Illinois tomorrow.
