Marylanders will pay $1.6 BILLION over the next 10 yrs to subsidize the power needs of Big Tech's data centers.
You should NOT have to pay for Big Tech's profits.
My Power for the People Act would make data centers pay for their power, instead of passing costs onto consumers.
Think polluters don't have enough money to pay for the damage they've caused? Think again.
Unlike Texas, North Carolina, Tennessee, Missouri, & Florida, Virginia put its redistricting referendum up to the will of the PEOPLE. They voted & the redistricting amendment won, fair & square.
This ruling throws out their votes and ignores Virginians’ will.
Since the "ceasefire" the Netanyahu govt has steadily taken control of more territory in Gaza, squeezing civilians into tighter areas, pushing them toward the sea.
Where the hell is the Trump Admin & its so-called “Board of Peace” amidst this land grab?
8 years ago today, Trump ripped apart the Iran nuclear deal. Now look where we are.
Lutnick just can't get his story straight about his ties to Jeffrey Epstein — from back in February, where I first got him to admit he had lied about their connection, to today.
What is he hiding? Why does his story keep changing?
The American people deserve the truth.
Remember: Trump promised to bring DOWN prices 'on day 1.'
He's now sending his top economic advisor out to try and convince the American people that it's a GOOD thing that they are paying more for "everything."
They haven’t got a clue.
This will only further weaken America on the global stage.
[2/2]
Rubio’s refusal to properly honor Foreign Service Day & the 300+ FSOs who died while serving, is an affront to their service.
Now, he's firing 250 of these non-partisan civil servants while we are in the middle of a war that is testing our alliances & endangering Americans around the world.
[1/2]
As the civil war in Sudan enters its 4th year, the RSF continues to commit genocide with impunity.
As I told this Trump official — if ending this genocide is a priority we need ACTION. To get results, the US must use our immense leverage to get the UAE to stop arming the RSF.
🚨 NEW from the American Medical Association: RFK Jr.'s recommendation for babies to forgo the hepatitis-B vaccine will likely lead to more infections in our kids, increased rates of liver cancer, & death.
RFK Jr.'s conspiracy theories are putting lives at risk.
He must go, NOW.
Trump's corruption has been well documented, but perhaps one of his most outrageous — and lucrative — schemes has been his personal meme coin.
Since its launch, Trump has made over $200 MILLION from it while those everyday Americans who have invested have lost BILLIONS.
Limiting access to healthcare that has been in use for decades & has been proven safe & effective is an attack on women.
SCOTUS must continue to uphold access to mifepristone & Congress must act to codify Roe & stop these attacks once & for all.
Trump and Republicans are driving up health costs and making it unaffordable to get care. This is just the latest chapter of their years-long effort to kill the Affordable Care Act.
This denial of coverage makes our case for moving to Medicare for All more urgent.

Prediction markets have become a hotbed for corruption in this administration & have even become a national security risk.
This was the right move to ensure Senators and their staff don't enrich themselves with insider information. White House should follow suit!
This is a farce. Trump continues to blockade the Strait of Hormuz which is an act of WAR.
This is just another attempt to make an end-run around Congress.
No self-respecting Republican should believe this & if they do they are making even more of a mockery of their duties.
Today, after 75 days, Republicans finally passed the same DHS funding bill they could have passed back in February — a bill to fund TSA, FEMA, & the Coast Guard without giving a penny to Trump’s lawless ICE & CBP.
75 days of pure political theater. Total incompetence.
As Trump ramps up his threats of war against Cuba, we must understand what led us to this point: 65 years of a bankrupt Cuba policy.
If we want to avoid war with Cuba, we must rein in this lawless President & learn from the failed, bipartisan policies that led us to this point.
61 days into Trump's illegal war in Iran & gas prices are at a 4 year high, averaging around $4.30 per gallon.
Trump broke his promise to keep us out of war and bring prices down. But we can help do both now by ENDING this war which is making us less safe and worse off.
