I’m the product of good public schools, from kindergarten to the Merchant Marine Academy. Every kid deserves the same shot I had, but private school voucher programs threaten that opportunity.
Read my op-ed on what Arizona's experience with voucher fraud tells us about where this road leads and why I'm pushing to repeal the new federal voucher program.
To celebrate AZ's Statehood Day, DHS Sec'y Noem held a presser in PHX making false claims about the fed government's authority over state & local off'ls. To be clear, she doesn't have authority over elections in Maricopa County, the state of Arizona, or anywhere else in the USA.
When I was gov’t relations & legal counsel at the Nat’l Center for Missing & Exploited Children, legislators asked us to provide technical assistance in child exploitation legislation. Republicans routinely proposed making crimes like Maxwell’s punishable by death. 25 yrs ago
Here is my conclusion after sitting through Maxwell's deposition with her refusing to answer a single question about the men who raped underage girls, saying she would only do so for clemency.
She must immediately be sent back to the maximum security prison where she belongs.

Virginia Democrats now have total control of the state government and have immediately moved to:
—End police cooperation with Trump’s ICE
—Pass new maps to combat Trump’s gerrymandering and eliminate up to 4 Republican House seats
—Enshrine LGBTQ+ rights in the state constitution
—Enshrine abortion rights in the state constitution
—Protect and expand voting rights
—Fire Republican appointees to the University of Virginia board
—Reestablish support for diversity and inclusion
—Accelerate a minimum wage increase
—Build more housing to lower rent prices
On Opening Day, @SenAnaliseOrtiz left two seats empty for the 32 people who died in ICE custody last year, and for the thousands still suffering in detention. When she tried to speak their names, Senate President Warren Petersen tried to cut her microphone. We stand in solidarity with all those harmed by ICE and this administration’s mass deportation agenda.
Second unjustified war in my life time.
This war is illegal, it’s embarrassing that we went from the world cop to the world bully in less than one year.
There is no reason for us to be at war with Venezuela.
I don’t usually make New Year’s resolutions, but here’s mine: ban stock trading for members of Congress. I don’t do it, and neither should anyone else. It’s not right that lawmakers can buy and sell stocks while having access to information the public doesn’t. This has gone on way too long.
I’ve been through a lot worse than anything Donald Trump or Pete Hegseth can throw at me. And I'm not backing down, because this isn't about me — it's about you and every American's First Amendment right.
