Sen. Strom Thurmond voted against the Civil Rights Act, the Voting Rights Act, AND supported Jim Crow laws.
Thurmond’s record for longest floor speech (in protest of the Civil Rights Act, no less!) was just broken by a Black man, my good friend Cory Booker.
That’s America.

Cory. Booker. 👊🇺🇸🔥
The #1 topic for calls to my office today? Cory Booker’s floor speech.
So yeah… I’d say people are listening to him.

just days after Trump declared himself the "fertilization president" the entire team focused on Assisted Reproductive Technology (which includes treatments like IVF) was laid off at the CDC

"President Trump and Elon Musk's move fast and break things mentality is breaking Social Security." - @smith.senate.gov
If you’re a Midwestern populist who believes regular people should have a fighting chance against the wealthy and powerful, you would have found in Chris a kindred spirit.
She taught me most of what I know about stirring up trouble.
I love you Mom.
This is Chris Flint my Mom. Born on April Fool’s Day in 1932, passed on from this Earth after a long goodbye from Alzheimer’s in 2016.
She would have been 93 today. If you wonder where I learned to swear, here’s my teacher.
Seeing Cory living in Fox News’ head rent free brought me great joy.
Hope it does for you too.
Onward!
Was able to speak for a while this morning as @booker.senate.gov enters Hour 13 of holding the Senate floor.
With two glasses of water and sheer determination, he’s telling the world that America is fighting back against this President.
Go Cory!
I love my friend @booker.senate.gov.
Speaking on the Senate floor as long as he is able to tell the stories of the damage being done to Americans by Donald Trump and his Administration.

I’ve taken the Senate floor and will speak for as long as I’m physically able to lift the voices of Americans who are being harmed and not being heard in this moment of crisis. Watch here:
This is exactly what I feared but knew in my gut was true: This group chat scandal isn't an isolated incident, it's just the only one we know about.
Any Republicans that stick their heads in the sand, look the other way and pretend this isn't a serious problem are abdicating their responsibility.
What other sensitive data are they carelessly sending via unsecured group chats?
Eid Mubarak, Minnesota!
Trans Day of Visibility should be a day of joy, but it feels somber this year. The onslaught of attacks against trans folks seems endless, so I just want to say this:
Trans people deserve respect, freedom, and autonomy. They deserve to live their lives as their true selves without fear.
I’m tracking this situation closely and have been in touch with U of M leaders.
We need answers on exactly what is happening.

International students are huge assets to the University of Minnesota. They move thousands of miles away from their families and support systems to learn from the best and the brightest.
I can’t imagine how terrified they are after learning ICE has detained one of their classmates.

Rumeysa Ozturk must not be deported. You can't kidnap someone off the street for their political views — this isn't Moscow.
She has every right to speak her mind. I've contacted the Administration. I want answers.
