Missouri! Your state MIGHT be redistricting! As @repwesleybellmo.bsky.social of St. Louis explains—they could be coming for the beloved Rep. Cleaver’s seat in Kansas City to try to keep power in the House. That’s why it’s time to organize and mobilize to demand fair maps! #Episode5
Hey Ohio! Your state is redistricting! As my friend @repemiliasykes.bsky.social Sykes explains—your maps were already found to be unconstitutional. But now, your legislature & gov could use the opportunity to try to cheat in the 2026 election. And nobody likes a cheater. Especially in the Midwest!
It’s #BlackWomensEqualPayDay! Did you know that across the U.S. Black women earn only 64 cents on the dollar. This pay gap isn't just a number—it’s about fairness, dignity and security for millions of women. We’re fighting for policies for equal pay to close the racial wealth gap once & for all!
Texas—listen up! Your state **is** redistricting as part of the GOP’s effort to rig the national election. Join me with @repcasar.bsky.social to understand why they are trying to gerrymander Texas, what you can do, and its implications for everyone across the country. #Episode3
Our hearts are heavy following the fatal shooting of a 14-year-old at the University of New Mexico in the heart of our community. Today, our community is grieving. I am sending my deepest condolences to the victim’s family and friends and the whole UNM community. 💔
We’re kicking off our series breaking down what’s happening with gerrymandering and redistricting, its implications for 2026, and how you can protect the vote. Join me and @raskin.house.gov to explain what the GOP’s doing—and how they’re trying to rig the election after passing the Big Ugly Bill.
The cruelty and lawlessness of this administration seem to know no bounds. Here they are spending hundreds of millions of your taxpayer dollars after the Big Ugly Bill to make corporations rich at the expense of our communities. We are fighting back!
Congress has left the building! But instead of doing their jobs, the GOP is sending everyone home to shield Trump from accountability. Meanwhile, they’ve launched a new scheme to cheat in the midterms: gerrymandering congressional districts across the country.
Today marks 16 years since the last increase to the federal minimum wage. Nobody can survive on $7.25 an hour. In NM, we’ve fought to raise wages at the state level. But there is still a national crisis, and that's why I’m proud to support legislation to raise the federal minimum wage to $17.
Time and time again, they keep coming back trying to gut our environmental laws. This week, the GOP was back trying to gut NEPA—after they just passed their Big Ugly Bill three weeks ago! We need policies that reflect our communities' voices, not ones that bend the knee to the rich and powerful.
Just found out non-suspension votes were cancelled this week. Why, you ask? Surprise, surprise, the GOP is still unraveling over taking a vote to disclose the Epstein files. The House GOP would rather shut down the House than vote on transparency. Here’s the latest:
As a former OMB staffer, I know that the Office of Management and Budget works for the people. The Trump Admin’s funding freezes are a dangerous constitutional overreach that puts essential services at risk. I'm proud to be in the fight to ensure the power of the people is protected.
When the system is rigged—our job is to protect the people.   As Trump seeks to deregulate the stock market, gut the SEC, and make himself richer along the way—all we have to do is look at history to see what could happen. Because we all know what happened in 1929. This is a public responsibility!
ICYMI, I am co-leading the Presidential Library Anti-Corruption Act of 2025 to ensure Presidential Libraries cannot be used as a tool for corruption. This isn’t an episode of Veep or House of Cards—this is real life. And the corruption must end.
