Funding from SAMHSA is not a budget line—it's a lifeline to people struggling with substance use and mental health challenges and the providers who support them. Canceling this funding will cost lives. The Trump administration must restore it immediately.
Trump administration sends letter wiping out addiction, mental health grants

Banning immigrants from 75 countries to the United States is unjustified, misguided, and just plain cruel. This reckless policy is not rooted in security—it is rooted in rejection and hate. @MarcoRubio must reverse course and resume visa processing.

U.S. to stop issuing immigrant visas for 75 countries
The suspension specifically applies to U.S. immigrant visas for foreigners seeking to live in the United States but not to short-term visa applicants such as tourists or students.
I’m proud to stand with every trans kid fighting to play the sports that they love. This is about fairness, freedom, and the right to live as your authentic self. Let trans kids play. Let them live with dignity. Trans rights are human rights.

Trump claims he is an economic populist then governs as a plutocrat. He isn’t interested in cutting costs for Americans. Trump only cares about cutting taxes for CEO billionaires and slashing benefits for the vulnerable. He has no credibility on affordability.

USDA's Roadless Rule has kept 45 million acres of forest wild and free from clearcutting and roadbuilding for 25 years. Now, Trump wants to undo it—putting our forests at risk. @usdagov.bsky.social @forestservice.bsky.social, listen to Americans who want to protect public lands from destruction.
ICE murdered Renee Good just blocks away from where police murdered George Floyd. @ayannapressley.bsky.social and I are introducing the Qualified Immunity Abolition Act to hold ICE agents and all federal law enforcement officers accountable. We need justice. Abolish qualified immunity now.
