Sonya Massey feared for her safety and trusted law enforcement to protect her. That trust should never have cost her life. While justice prevailed, this ruling can’t bring Sonya back. Her legacy lives on as we work to make sure a tragedy like this never happens again.

Let's be clear: Trump has the funding to keep SNAP running. He's choosing not to. There's even a Republican-led bill to fund SNAP with broad Democratic support. Republican leaders won't let us vote on it. Deliberately choosing to let families starve is as vindictive as it gets.
Trump would rather build a tacky ballroom for himself than keep kids from going hungry. Thank you @govpritzker.illinois.gov for supporting our food banks and helping ensure that Illinois families will be able to put food on the table when Republicans won’t.
As nearly 2 million Illinois residents prepare to lose federal food assistance Saturday amid the government shutdown, Gov. Pritzker signed an executive order Thursday directing $20 million toward food banks across the state.
It's not just Chicago, Portland, DC, LA and Memphis at risk— The writing is on the wall. Donald Trump is on mission to pit our heroes against the American people. And it could be your city, your safety and your rights next.
Breaking news: Up to 23,500 National Guard troops are being trained for civil unrest missions in cities, an indication that the Trump administration’s effort to send military forces into urban centers could become the norm.
9 in 10 low-income ACA enrollees—mostly in states Trump won—will pay the price if ACA tax credits expire. And yet, Trump and House Republicans aren't even in DC to try and fix this crisis. They are quite literally abandoning their voters.
House Republicans haven't shown up to work for 40 days. Donald Trump isn't even in the country. They shut down the government, spiraling us toward a health care crisis that will hike your monthly premiums and jeopardize coverage for millions— And then just left.
America is in turmoil from his government shutdown and bracing for higher health care bills— And instead of doing his job and governing for the American people, Trump is halfway across the world threatening American cities with our military.
New York Times: Trump Says He Is Prepared to Send ‘More Than the National Guard’ Into U.S. Cities
NEWS: I’m leading my colleagues in denouncing FCC Chair Carr’s unlawful plan to increase costs on law-abiding Americans who wish to keep in touch with their incarcerated loved ones. Congress passed a law to lower prison phone rates. Carr must do his job and enforce the law.

Example #2: U.S. citizen and Veteran George Retes: “They broke his window, they pepper sprayed him, they grabbed him, threw him on the floor." Mr. Retes was wrongfully jailed for three days by Trump's federal agents. Three days. This is how Trump treats our heroes.
An excerpt of George Retes's story.
The 3 districts facing the highest premium hikes if ACA tax credits expire are all Republican-led districts: WY: +693% WV-01: +654% WV-02: +599% Republicans would rather abandon their constituents than work with us to reopen the government and protect their health care.
The numbers don't lie. More than 8 in 10 Americans are worried about how Republicans letting ACA tax credits expire would affect coverage. But 3 weeks into the shutdown, House Republicans aren’t even here to figure out a solution.
A graphic detailing that an overwhelming majority of Americans are concerned about ACA tax credits expiring.
If alcohol, tobacco and drugs aren’t allowed within 1,000 feet of schools—tear gas shouldn’t be either. We send our kids to school to learn, not receive front row seats to Trump’s extreme enforcement tactics. I’m demanding Trump’s Education Secretary Linda McMahon do something to stop this.
If Republicans get their way and let ACA tax credits expire, 339,000 Americans will lose their jobs next year. Almost half of them will be doctors, nurses and caregivers. They call it policy. We call it cruelty.
My heart breaks for Darren and Cindy Bailey as they face such an unimaginable loss. No parent should ever have to bury their own child. Bryan and I are keeping the entire Bailey family in our thoughts and send our heartfelt condolences.
The son of Republican candidate for governor Darren Bailey, along with two of Bailey’s grandchildren and daughter-in-law, were killed in a helicopter crash in Montana.
NEW: Trump's Big, Beautiful Betrayal includes an $8.8 billion bailout for pharmaceutical companies.   That's right. Premiums are about to go through the roof and 15 million are going to lose their health care—   But Republicans think Big Pharma deserves a golden parachute.
An excerpt of a CBO report detailing the increase of cost in drug prices.
If given the chance, I'd lose my legs all over again to serve in our great military. The leader of your party is a five-time draft dodger who has fired more Veterans than any other president in our history. Square that circle then tell me who really hates our military.
New York Times: Scott Perry Says Democrats ‘Hate the Military,’ Echoing Trump’s attacks.

The remarks by the Republican House member from Pennsylvania align with efforts by the president and G.O.P. leaders to portray the political left as un-American.
