A real national emergency is the epidemic of gun violence in America. On average, 96 people die from it every single day. Let's do something about that.
.@TGowdySC foamed at the mouth with power in Congress, then retired because he claimed he didn't enjoy it. Now it’s clear: Trey Gowdy just wanted a fat lobbyist paycheck. That should be illegal. https://t.co/mxnxaufvgU
The window for dealing with climate change is rapidly closing. The moment is upon us. We must act, using all of our tools – including all of our foreign policy tools – to bring as many nations with us as possible. That's what global leadership looks like.
A devastating climate change report was released just last month, but despite the warning signs, this Administration continues to push their destructive agenda.

EPA acting director @AndrewRWheeler – a Big Coal ex-lobbyist – is rolling back climate protections to build coal plants. Under my bill to #EndCorruptionNow, lobbyists wouldn’t be able to go from working Big Coal one day to a job regulating them the next. https://t.co/iChVVe6zw0
My advice to all young people who may find themselves in a room where there aren’t a lot of people who look like them — remember this: you are never alone. Wherever you are, there is an entire community behind you who are cheering you on to succeed.

Rising heat, increased drought, wildfires, and severe storms due to climate change will have a direct impact on what food you eat and how much it costs. We can’t bury our heads in the sand on this issue. It’s past time to act.

Congress has until December 10 to reverse the #NetNeutrality repeal. Americans deserve a fair and open internet, not one where the gatekeepers of the internet can tilt the competitive playing field. We must speak out.
If I'm a President... and I was looking at potentially significant legal "exposure," I'm not sure I would take to Twitter to go after the Chief Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court. Call me crazy, but pretty sure that would not be my definition of #winning.
More than 1,000 people remain unaccounted for in Northern California. If you were in the #CampFire, please check the missing person’s list at https://t.co/6FU4nSC2vM, and if you are listed, please call (530) 538-6570, (530) 538-7544, or (530) 538-7671 to say you are safe.
The sheer scope of the horror and devastation of the wildfire in Northern California keeps escalating. The list of the missing now tops ONE THOUSAND. The homeless number in the THOUSANDS. Hazardous smoke levels envelop MILLIONS. Where is the national attention and mobilization?
Another massacre, yet too many politicians throw up their hands and offer "thoughts and prayers." What if instead of mass shooting the headlines read Ebola? Food Outbreak? Airplane Malfunction? Terrorist Plot? Then would we act on what's clearly a public health crisis?
Any media operation that acts as a stenographer for this president, in headlines or tweets, is at risk for sending false information into the world. There is no joy in saying this, but he lies. And it is the job for all of us not to serve as a megaphone for those lies.
Think about this headline: "Trump claims he can defy Constitution and end birthright citizenship" - VP Pence echoes, says Supreme Court may back Trump. Objective Analysis: this is moving from outrageously absurd to truly dangerous. A president says he can defy the constitution!
I am heartsick for the victims and families of those killed in Pittsburgh, for the members of Tree of Life Synagogue, and for the people of Pittsburgh. Anti-semitism, bigotry, and hate have no place in this country. We will not let evil silence or divide us.
