As antisemitism continues to surge around the world since October 7th: The Trump administration hired a top Pentagon official with a history of antisemitic conspiracy theories and extremism. It’s outrageous, and Secretary Hegseth must fire her now. www.npr.org/2025/03/06/n...
I’m breaking down why Donald Trump and Linda McMahon’s attempt to shutter the Department of Education will hurt our kids. You’re going to want to watch this. Democrats will never stop fighting for our kids.
Whatever Trump and Republicans in Congress say Here are the facts—The GOP budget goals mean they’re going to slash Medicaid or Medicare. And all to give tax cuts to their billionaires’ club. Democrats will never stop fighting for Medicaid and Medicare. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...
The acting head of Social Security admits it: DOGE is calling the shots and taking away Social Security benefits. Firing Social Security staff and closing offices means people lose benefits. We'll keep fighting to protect Social Security. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
This right here is why every single Democrat said “hell no” to the nomination of Linda McMahon. Linda McMahon is an Education Secretary who personifies nails on the chalk board. Democrats are fighting for our kids’ education. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/06/u...
If Donald Trump abolishes the Department of Education, it would be one of the most destructive and devastating steps he’s ever taken. The main victims of this decision? American children. Democrats will do everything we can to stop this and protect education.
Senate Dems just took to the floor to introduce resolution after resolution using unanimous consent to fight for Ukraine & democracy and condemn Putin These have been American ideals and values. Tonight a few Senate Republicans blocked all of them. We must not stop fighting for Ukraine & democracy
I stood with @sanders.senate.gov, @murray.senate.gov, House Members, labor leaders to reintroduce the PRO Act. With Trump—Billionaires win. Workers lose. We need the PRO Act to empower hardworking Americans to have a seat at the table to bargain for better wages, benefits, working conditions.
Senator Schumer, Senator Sanders, Senator Murray, House Members, and labor leaders hold a press conference to reintroduce the PRO Act, March 5, 2025.

Trump's so desperate to be liked by Putin that he's apparently giving Russia a huge advantage by halting intelligence sharing with Ukraine. This intel provides early warning when Putin targets not just military sites but also civilians, hospitals, homes. www.wsj.com/world/trump-...
The American people aren’t going to just roll over and let Trump and the Republicans ruin this country all to give tax cuts to their billionaire buddies. Americans across the country are organizing and mobilizing to defend health care, social security, and the livelihoods of American families.
Donald Trump spent over ten minutes falsely ridiculing and delegitimizing Social Security, following DOGE’s lead. Tens of millions of Americans depend on the benefits they’ve earned from Social Security.
