Those who cannot remember the past are doomed to repeat it.
George Santayana

In this oft-repeated quote, Santayana makes no mention of those who deliberately try to erase it. That, however, is the hallmark of the current Administration.

Families across the country are struggling to make ends meet. Instead of using the power of the purse to support families & lower costs, Republican leaders are focusing on Trump’s White House ballroom. Tell Congress to reject funding for Trump’s ballroom!

By any available measure, this is possibly the most anti-science government since the Salem witch hunts.

Thousands marched. Many died. More were bloodied. Then, Congress voted for the Voting Rights Act. President Johnson signed it into law in 1965. It took years to achieve that victory. It only took 6 people to undo all that blood, sweat & tears. Read more: https://t.co/6Bs09EF2SN

ELECTIONS HAVE CONSEQUENCES
When we began this Spotlight series, we promised you we wouldn’t go after every shiny object thrown our way. Sadly, there have been far too many shiny objects, and we’re often at a loss as to which to highlight for you.

For decades, Wall Street billionaires have pushed Congress to cut Social Security. The latest scheme is a “6-Figure Limit” which would cap Social Security benefits at $50k a person/$100k a couple.

Tell Congress: Tax the rich, don’t cut Social Security!

THIS IS NOT NORMAL!

From his unhinged middle of the night rants to the offensive pictures he creates/posts, POTUS demonstrates time and again that he is increasingly unhinged & out of control. READ MORE HERE: https://t.co/6Bs09EF2SN

The Tail That Wags the Dog

Just in case you had any doubt about who is responsible for the current circus surrounding Department of Homeland Security funding, last Friday made it abundantly clear.

VA is only the 2nd state, after CA, to net seats for Dems since Republican-controlled states conducted mid-decade redistricting to secure maximum GOP advantage in the midterms. Voter turnout favors Republicans. Help us reach our GOTV goal.

During last week’s Senate Intelligence Committee hearing on Iraq, DNI, Tulsi Gabbard, was skewered for her lack thereof – intelligence, that is. Leading the charge was Sen. Jon Ossoff (D) who gave us all a master class in just what a Senator should do. https://t.co/E9EYE8M1bo

We know it’s a Long Shot

There is a Chance

As the violence rages on and a horrific death toll rises in Iran and across the Middle East, reports indicate Trump is gearing up to request an additional $50 BILLION from Congress to fuel his war.

It’s not often that we think we should send a thank you note to the Texas GOP but the Texas Senate primaries were a true gift for which we are thankful. No, we are not counting our chickens but we are very hopeful.

Save us from SAVE! For them, the SAVE Act (Safeguard American Voter Eligibility) is the perfect package. It combines their bigotry with their false narrative about a problem which doesn’t exist, widespread voter fraud. READ HERE: https://t.co/6Bs09EF2SN
