Netanyahu is lobbying for Section 224 in the national defense bill, a provision that quietly expands U.S.-Israel military cooperation and weapons development with almost zero oversight.
The American people do not want more U.S. military aid to Israel. We must defeat Section 224.
We’re already facing the worst student loan crisis in history: nearly 1 in 4 borrowers are in default.
Now Trump wants to make it even worse.
On July 1, he’ll eliminate the most affordable repayment plan and raise costs by as much as $4,000 a year.
We can’t let that happen.
This week, my amendment to ban billionaire-funded super PACs received unanimous support from my Democratic colleagues.
The momentum is growing. It’s time to repeal Citizens United, ban super PACs and move to the public funding of elections NOW.
In America today, we rank 34th out of 35 countries in childhood poverty and millions of children are food insecure.
Maybe, just maybe, my Republican colleagues would consider holding a single hearing about how we improve the lives of American kids.
Trump believes climate change is a “hoax,” and he and his Big Oil friends want more fossil fuel and carbon emissions.
Meanwhile, the planet is warming at dangerous levels and Europe is facing a record-breaking heatwave.
We must break our fossil fuel addiction & save the planet.
In 1913, Teddy Roosevelt wrote America "had come to the stage where for our people what was needed was a real democracy; and of all forms of tyranny the least attractive and the most vulgar is the tyranny of mere wealth, the tyranny of a plutocracy.”
True then. More true today.
If you give a politician $5 to influence a vote, it’s bribery.
If billionaires spend $50 million to influence an election, it’s legal.
That is what a corrupt campaign finance system looks like.
This is what drinking water in Georgia looks like after Meta began data center construction in the community.
Today I called for EPA and Congressional investigations into the impact of data center construction on local drinking water supplies.
We cannot take water for granted.
Since the Supreme Court's disastrous Citizens United decision, election spending by billionaires has skyrocketed by more than 16,000%.
We cannot allow billionaires to determine the outcome of our elections. https://t.co/YN1M5E7AME
At a time when the U.S. government is becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of the billionaire class and their super PACs, we’ve got to get big money out of the political process.
We need a ban on stock trading by the President and Members of Congress.
It’s bullshit that elected officials are getting rich off the backs of the American people while having access to insider information.
The Nakba never ended. The genocide of Palestinians continues as the Israeli military escalates violence in Gaza, the West Bank, and Lebanon.
I'm joining @RepRashida in co-sponsoring a resolution to recognize the 78th anniversary of the Nakba and Palestinian refugees’ rights.
The U.S. can’t afford to deal with housing, healthcare and childcare. But somehow, we always have the money for yet another bloody war?
It’s time to say NO to a government that invests in war over the needs of working people.
Trump's DHS Secretary said, “For some reason, ICE has been demonized.”
ICE murdered two of my constituents in broad daylight and terrorized Minnesota.
The American people want us to stop bankrolling more terror from this rogue agency. Abolish it.
Amazon cut 30,000 jobs & got a $7.8 billion tax break
Meta cut 8,000 jobs & got an $8 billion tax break
PayPal cut 4,800 jobs & paid $0 in federal income taxes
Disney cut 1,000 jobs & paid $0 in federal income taxes
Corporate tax breaks don't create jobs. They enrich the 1%.
