Once again: the Trump administration is not above the law. It must abide by SCOTUS’s ruling and immediately reinstate aid funding.

Since 2020, the 5 richest men have seen their fortunes more than double, while 5 billion people combined have witnessed their wealth decline.
As business elites gather at the World Economic Forum in #Davos, it's time to shout it from the rooftops...
Fight inequality, #TaxTheRich.

Oxfam has filed shareholder resolutions with ExxonMobil, Chevron, and ConocoPhillips urging them to disclose critical tax data. These companies are clearly desperate to avoid public scrutiny, which begs the question: what could they be hiding? https://t.co/jznpIZvgI9

I am deeply shocked & saddened to learn about the tragic assassination of Noe Gomez, a dedicated member of our 2023 HRA Laureate, the Xinka Parliament, & a tireless advocate for human rights. Our thoughts and condolences are with the Xinka community during this difficult time.

We applaud the Members of Congress including @RepCori, who have sent a letter to US @SecBlinken in support of the Xinka people.

.@PAPXIGUA has faced retribution and attacks for speaking out against a hazardous silver mine in Guatemala.

When we stand up for human rights, we must do it everywhere.

That's why I led my colleagues in urging the @StateDept to affirm the rights of the Xinka people.
