You are responsible for everyone of those deaths…..every children that will not go to bed tonight….every children that will not wake up tomorrow and go to school….never again….because you forgot that you are here to protect people….#gunreform is what will decrease shootings!

The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns.

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate.

Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care.

The list goes on...

Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

Let this serve as a reminder that poverty is a policy choice.

In the richest country in the world, it is absolutely inexcusable that millions of our children go to school hungry because they are living in poverty.

Kudos to Governor Tim Walz and the Minnesota state legislature.

[John Fetterman @JohnFetterman]

Absolutely horrified that four Philly students were shot on the way home from school today.

Gisele + I are holding these students, their families, and the Overbrook High community in our hearts tonight.

These are kids. They deserve to be safe in their own city. ENOUGH.

I really think that if you were looking for one single tweet that summed up the normalization of Trump (and the obsession with creating a Dem false equivalence), this is it. https://t.co/XtLlDDlCVr

Ironic isn’t it? Mitch McConnell stealing a Supreme Court seat cost him his last chance at being Leader McConnell.

Holy shit: Oz says his abortion position: should be between "a woman, her doctor, and local political leaders" #PASenDebate

“States should decide the issue of abortion.” - Lindsey Graham, literally just one month ago.

[Dave Wasserman @Redistrict]

I've seen enough: in a huge victory for the pro-choice side, the Kansas constitutional amendment to remove protections of abortion rights fails.

My quiet shy kid wore an N95 all year last year. So did her teacher. She began immersion french, and she is now incredibly fluent. She learned to make eye contact, project her voice. All through 2-way masking. She knows when a masked person is smiling. Masks work.

It’s 2022, and 157 House Republicans just voted against marriage equality.

That’s where they come down on this issue.

In 2022.

Oral contraceptives should be over the counter like they are in over 100 other countries. I will die on this hill.

So, to sum up the Supreme Court’s week: life begins at conception and ends in a mass shooting.

[Robert Reich @RBReich]

The Supreme Court just sent us back 50 years.

A devastating day in our nation's history.

[President Biden Archived @POTUS46Archive]

Today, we commemorate the 50th anniversary of Title IX, a mandate that transformed our nation.

I'll continue to fight for the promise of Title IX – that every woman and girl can pursue her education and dreams free from discrimination, and every LGBTQI+ student is protected.
