I led most of my TX colleagues in opposition to Trump's recent effort to deny and unravel basic climate science. Preventing EPA from acknowledging that greenhouse gas emissions harm our health will prevent us from maintaining modest climate action or taking necessary steps to cut emissions further.

Free speech is a bedrock of democracy, and Disney caved to Trump's power grab by pulling "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" off the air. Just as CBS canceled "The Late Show With Stephen Colbert." The Trump Admin takes a page out of Hungary's Viktor Orbán's autocratic playbook, whom the president openly admires.
Trump’s anti-media blitz that led to Kimmel’s suspension is straight from a European strongman’s playbook | CNN Business
Weaponize the levers of government for partisan political gain. Pressure privately owned media companies to toe the party line. Punish the owners that resist and reward the ones that acquiesce.

When families are already struggling to pay bills, Republicans are intent on making healthcare more unaffordable. Today, I highlighted GOP efforts to keep raising prices and costs of healthcare. I will not support their efforts to inflict pain on people, making life increasingly more expensive.

More than 1,000 Health & Human Services staff are demanding RFK Jr. resign as he is “placing the health of all Americans at risk.” Trump and RFK politicize science, spread misinformation, and empower ideologues over trained medical and scientific professionals. Politics isn’t at stake; lives are.
HHS employees demand RFK Jr. resign for ‘compromising the health of this nation’ | CNN
More than 1,000 current and former employees of the US Department of Health and Human Services wrote a letter to Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on Wednesday, arguing that his leadership has “put the ...

In his book, “1984,” George Orwell warned of the future that Trump and his enablers seem intent on building. Blocking our efforts to shed light on Trump’s creation of a centralized digital ID should deeply concern anyone who treasures our freedom, civil liberties, and privacy.

The murder of Charlie Kirk forms an opportunity to bring the country together to avoid further political violence. Outrageously, instead of seeking unity, the Vice President chooses to weaponize this tragedy and vows retribution against Trump's opponents.
JD Vance vows retribution on liberal institutions after Charlie Kirk killing
Vice President JD Vance hosted Charlie Kirk’s podcast as he mourns his friend and potentially cements his position as the heir to the political movement built by Kirk, a powerful GOP force.

Throughout American history, political cartoonists have challenged the status quo and held those in power accountable. Pleased my friend, director Bill Banowsky, is showcasing his film "Savage Art" about the life & career of renowned cartoonist Pat Oliphant on 9/26 at Austin's State Theatre.

Important report on the humanitarian crisis in Gaza. Their findings lead to the inescapable conclusion that the extremist Netanyahu government has gone far beyond its justified goal of defeating Hamas to pursuing a policy of ethnic cleansing. Ongoing U.S. complicity in these crimes must end.

🚨@merkley.senate.gov and I just released our report detailing how the Netanyahu government is engaged in a campaign of ethnic cleansing in Gaza. The U.S. is complicit and the world must stop it. Read it in full here: www.vanhollen.senate.gov/download/van...

At UT Austin, Senate Faculty meetings are a way for educators to have a seat at the decision-making table. Now, state legislative interference threatens to undermine the quality of Longhorn education. We don’t need Republican politicians deciding what can and can't be taught, and who can teach it.
As UT ends senates, faculty mourn forum that guaranteed their voice
Ending UT's faculty council leaves 3,700 faculty without elected representation or a direct line to top leadership for the first time in decades.

In a significant escalation, Putin sends drones into Polish airspace, in what its Prime Minister called “the closest we have been to open conflict since World War II.” NATO allies forcefully condemn this provocation, but Trump displays weakness by failing to voice the slightest criticism of Putin.
Trump Weighs In on Russian Drone NATO Incursion, but Doesn’t Condemn It
European leaders swiftly and universally criticized incursion by Moscow as a dangerous escalation.

New data show that taxpayers spend about $1 billion more each year to cover Texans with Medicare DisAdvantage plans offered by UnitedHealth Group and Humana. Why? These companies make patients appear sicker than they really are to secure higher taxpayer payments. I'm working to change this.

A Fox News host from one of Donald Trump’s favorite shows is calling for the murder of homeless Americans. Violence is never the answer, and we as a society must not accept or normalize the use of such dangerous rhetoric. Will the President or GOP lawmakers condemn this?

Brian Kilmeade endorses euthanizing homeless people: "Involuntary lethal injection, or something. Just kill them."

After promoting conspiracy theories about Democrats, most Republicans still insist on protecting Trump by refusing to even vote for full disclosure of the Epstein files. Ending the cycle of violence calls for every American to recognize that violence is never the answer. (3/3)
Rep. Lloyd Doggett@doggett.house.govSep 12(source)
Trump and his minions, who refuse to even post a plaque honoring the law enforcement heroes who stopped the January 6 insurrection, regularly demonize their adversaries and embrace violence. This adds to the danger of more political violence as our democracy faces growing peril. (2/3)
Rep. Lloyd Doggett@doggett.house.govSep 12(source)
Instead of lowering the temperature, Trump is spiking it. We should be united in rejecting violence, but this partisan, one-sided approach only adds fuel to the fire. (1/3)
