Cutting funding for evidence-based models like a housing first approach to homelessness is cruel and will exacerbate our already limited resources. We must continue to fight this.

[Melanie D'Arrigo @DarrigoMelanie]

Haley Stevens is polling behind Mike Rogers.

Abdul El-Syed is polling ahead of him.

You’re right, America can’t afford to lose this seat to MAGA Republicans.

The store on Lincoln Avenue voted to join Trader Joe's United, becoming the first unionized location in Illinois. https://t.co/iHXA20MlN7

Rahm Emanuel's big speech in Israel begins by repeating the lie that Israel keeps trying to make peace and Palestinians keep saying no. Very skeptical that this dishonest rendering of history could form the basis for a decent future policy.

The 32nd ward showed up on Tuesday! Join us on 8/1 for our first canvass collecting signatures to get on the ballot!

[Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani @NYCMayor]

Lorenzo Salgado Araujo called Houston home for 35 years. On Tuesday, an ICE agent shot and killed him. His family learned of his death from a video before anyone bothered to knock on their door.

New York City stands with the Salgado family in demanding a full, independent investigation and real accountability. To the Salgado family and any immigrant family in this city living in fear: we grieve with you and we will continue to stand beside you in the pursuit of justice.

Abolish ICE.

@LionelBarrow @ConDurkin Would be great. But I’d be skeptical of a relationship between if they employ people here and the cloud computing tax, given it’s a use tax. Relatedly, nyc has a city corp income tax (we don’t), which doesn’t seem to stop corps from locating there…

His name was Lorenzo Salgado Araujo.

Gov. Gretchen Whitmer has endorsed Abbas Alawieh of Dearborn for State Senator. Alawieh, cofounder of the Uncommitted movement in 2024, is running in Dem primary in 2nd district against State Rep. Erin Byrnes. District includes Dearborn, Dearborn Heights, Allen Park, Melvindale other areas. Whitmer called Alawieh “a proven fighter who will work to lower costs, create good-paying jobs, and put Michigan families first.”

[Brayden @leftistbrayden]

Platner was accused of SA and immediately 90% of progressives called on him to drop out

Cuomo was accused of SA and centrists supported him and threw a hissy fit when Zohran won the nomination, because defending Capital is more important than not electing a sex pest

[Rashida Tlaib @RashidaTlaib]

I am withdrawing my endorsement of Graham Platner and calling on him to exit the race immediately so that he can be replaced by a progressive fighter who will deliver for the people and help win back the Senate. These allegations are devastating and must be taken seriously.

[Patrick Gilsenan for 32nd Ward @patgilsenan32]

See you tonight!

[William Lawrence @WeWill2026]

NEW POLL: Will is the only Democrat who beats GOP Rep. Barrett in MI07.

We're saying NO to data centers and endless wars and YES to good housing and healthcare.

That message is landing with voters across the spectrum.

Unsurprising that the Trib Editorial Board said “groceries are getting more expensive, lets spin it into an ad for AI shopping”

Why investigate Big Retail dynamic pricing or record profits when we can make consumers feel like it’s their fault?!

[Chicago Tribune Opinion @chitribopinions]

Editorial: Higher prices are making Americans into smarter, tech-savvy shoppers https://t.co/LmxpWTvHJS

[Francesca Hong For Governor @FrancescaHongWI]

We've got momentum, folks! Wisconsin is ready.

Chip in to keep it going 💪

Also the fact that Springfield has municipally owned electricity but Chicago doesn’t is beyond me. There’s no reason private entities should have absolute control over the utilities we rely on.

Bring power back to the ppl and #democratizecomed (and then public broadband!)

[✶ ✶ ✶ ✶ @chi_urbanist]

Chicago’s power company being ComEd while NYC’s power company is ConEd feels like lazy writing

[Ishan Daya @ishan_daya]

Because we want the right people responding to the right calls at the right time…

Because it’s standard in other cities that have non-police crisis response to allow for that…

Because we don’t (nor do they) want cops to be the sole answer to everything…??

[CWBChicago @CWBChicago]

Why should the city's non-police "crisis response" team have access to data terminals that have law enforcement-sensitive information?

Note: Mayor Johnson removed the CPD officer who used to be on each CARES team, thus removing the one person naturally authorized to access PDTs

[Sean Padraig McCarthy @SeanMcCarthyCom]

Buying rent stabilized property with the goal of lobbying the government to jack up working people’s rent is such scumbag behavior. Guy is already worth $100 billion but he wanted to put families out on the street to grab a few more crumbs. Sociopathic economic system

[Jamie @spacej_me]

wowwwwwwww! what a sick burn! 😂😂😂😂😂 unrelated but mine and my 4 yo’s health insurance from the “marketplace” is over $1000 a month

[beth miller @beth_avedon]

Every single person who was familiar with history understood immediately, and certainly by October 8, that Israel was going to massacre Palestinians in Gaza. In fact, by October 8 Reuters was reporting that Israel had already killed 400 Palestinians including 20 children.
