🚨Throughout his career, Justin Olson attacked women, pushing radical beliefs about fetal personhood and undermining our basic rights.  He once preached that "wives are the subjects of their husbands."  Senate Republicans just gave him a lifetime judicial appointment.
$85 million in federal funding for bus rapid transit is headed your way, @mayorspokane.bsky.social! 🚌🚌🚌 I was proud to secure this funding for Spokane. Investing in public transit connects our communities, strengthens our economy, and gets people where they need to go!
Senator Murray and Spokane Mayor Lisa Brown are standing nect to each other and smiling.
Speaker Johnson doesn't care about requiring warrants signed by a judge to protect your civil rights. Why? It'll take too long. The authoritarian police state & executive overreach Republicans warned about is HERE. But REPUBLICANS are enabling it. Not on my watch.
An American citizen was brutally ripped out of her car, her window shattered and detained on her way to the doctor. Thank you to Aliya for bravely sharing her story. This kind of conduct by ICE is sickening. And it's exactly what I am fighting to put an end to.
"These practices must end now." Aliya Rahman, a U.S. citizen who was dragged from a car by ICE agents in Minnesota, speaks out at a congressional hearing on DHS immigration enforcement tactics.
Everyone in America with eyes and ears can see what's been happening in Minnesota and across the country. The injustice is clear as day. Enough. We are going to have accountability at DHS or there will not be Democratic votes to fund a lawless agency.
Trump wants to subvert our free & fair elections. He could not be clearer about this if he tried. So let me say this: Trump's fantasy of nationalizing our elections will go NOWHERE in Congress. Democrats will fight to protect our elections and remain VIGILANT.
Q: What did you mean when you said you should 'nationalize elections' & which 15 states are you talking about? TRUMP: If a state can't run an election, I think the people behind me should do something about it. Look at Detroit, Pennsylvania, Atlanta -- horrible corruption on elections
NIH banned fetal tissue research to appease anti-abortion extremists—and at a committee hearing, the NIH Director couldn't provide scientific evidence to prove otherwise. I demanded to know how many projects will be halted by this anti-abortion policy decision.
Democrats won't vote to fund a lawless agency. There MUST be accountability at DHS—and if Republicans refuse to make the changes the American people are demanding, they cannot expect Democratic votes.
The same Republicans that gave Trump $200 million to renovate the Kennedy Center in the Big, Ugly Bill said it was too expensive to extend the ACA tax credits. Apparently, there's an unlimited budget for Trump vanity projects and zero dollars for your health care.
Our funding bills send a message to Trump: America will continue to fund cancer research. We WILL keep investing in affordable housing. Congress will NOT abolish the Department of Education. Well, he got the message, and he signed those bills into law.
Trump has made 10,000 times his salary after just ONE year in office. How? Selling access to the White House to the highest bidder. Spread the word: Our crook of a President is corrupt to his core and will stop at nothing to line his own pockets.
Kristi Noem's cruel mismanagement of DHS facilities is putting people's lives in danger. There are CHILDREN in this facility. If there are any Republicans who care about basic oversight, we need serious investigations into the conditions of DHS detention centers EVERYWHERE.
It should be crystal clear to anyone with eyes and ears that Trump is DETERMINED to subvert free and fair elections in America. But in America, state and local governments run elections. So Trump can kick rocks. Still, ALL of Congress must be VIGILANT.
Trump: "These people were brought to our country to vote, & they vote illegally. The Republicans should say, we should take over the voting in at least 15 places. The Republicans ought to nationalize the voting. We have states that I won that show I didn't win. You're gonna see something in Georgia"
WATCH: Trump’s VA Secretary confirms his VA abortion ban blocks veterans from getting abortion care in practically ANY circumstance—even rape.    This is outrageous. Women veterans should not be forced to suffer under a Trump abortion ban.
