Defunding the IRS would only serve those who wish to dodge their fair share. Progress in collecting from tax cheats and holding large corporations accountable is essential. Fair tax collection funds our society. Everyone benefits when the wealthy pay what they owe.
It's Election Day for Ohio, Virginia, Kentucky, and many other states.
Voting is one of the most important things we can do as citizens—not just for ourselves, but for our communities, too.

NEW: The CDC has released a report showing that the gun homicide rate went down in 2022.
This is an encouraging sign that @POTUS’ actions to address gun violence are helping save lives.
But, it’s not nearly enough at a time when guns are the leading killer of children.
Incredibly relieved to hear about the reported release of Natalie & Judith Raanan, who were being held as hostages by Hamas in Gaza. I pray for their health & safe return to their family.
Now the Hamas terrorists must release the remaining hostages that were captured on Oct 7.
@SpeakerMcCarthy@AmirOhana Biden didn’t “appease” Hamas or Iran. This is a huge tragedy. It was an attack on all of us. Stop trying to score political points over it. Get the House in order so Congress can act to help Israel, Kevin.
Israel is at war- meanwhile:
1. House is stalled until Republicans select Speaker candidate;
2. Senate is out this week;
3. No confirmed US ambassador to Israel;
4. Ukraine aid package isn’t moving;
5. Tuberville continues barricade 300+ military noms.
Republicans must call House back into session immediately. Our national security can’t wait.
Unbelievable.
Sen. Tommy Tuberville is refusing to lift the blockade of military nominations even in the face of the war in Israel.
Senate Armed Services Chair Jack Reed slammed the former football coach: "The United States needs seamless military leadership in place to handle dangerous situations like this and Senator Tuberville is denying it. This is no time for petty political theater, and I again urge Republican colleagues to help actively end Senator Tuberville’s damaging blockade. The time for talking is over.”
