We will continue to challenge the illegal actions of this administration and fight for Colorado 👇

A federal court ruled for Colorado and partner states, striking down an unlawful DOE policy that threatened funding for state-run energy programs. AG Phil Weiser co-led the case, defending clean energy progress and lowering costs for families. More: bit.ly/3WRdpNN

“Hospitals that began as charitable institutions are now suing thousands of patients for unpaid bills,” says @JessicaGlenza of @GuardianUS. Her investigation into Advocate Health found over 11,000 property liens filed, often hitting working-class families hardest. #MedicalDebt

I don't think it was a coincidence that shortly after Senate Democrats caved last night on the shutdown, news broke of Donald Trump pardoning Rudy Giuliani and others involved in trying to overturn the 2020 election. Sure looks like he wanted to rub extra salt in the wound!

If a political “leader” doesn’t get outrage from the public & House Dems over what happened, they aren’t leadership. What Senate Dems who voted for this horseshit deal did was fuck over all the hard work people put in to Tuesday’s elections. Healthcare matters. Not platitudes.

Medicare for All is a moderate position, anything less is right wing.

This is what premiums spike to for a man with cancer who is a taxi driver in AZ (met his son). This is Ambetter, operated by private health insurer Centene. It's why we need to extend the ACA credits & fight for Medicare for All.

This “deal” dramatically hikes healthcare premiums and only exacerbates the affordability crisis. It should be rejected, as should any politics willing to compromise on the basic needs of working people.

Senator Schumer is no longer effective and should be replaced. If you can’t lead the fight to stop healthcare premiums from skyrocketing for Americans, what will you fight for?

If this budget resolution passes, it will be a catalyst for the internal overthrow of the Democratic Party. We're fed up.

Just a reminder that tonight (Thu at 10pm) is the best documentary you’ll see on the Edmund Fitzgerald…only on @Local4News. Producer Adam Spindler, photographer Justin DePrekel and editor Hans Ihlenfeldt are a dream team, and I’ll tell you about the storm that sank the Fitz!


Powerful documentary about the sinking of the Edmund Fitzgerald. Highly recommended.

It’s been 50 years since the sinking of the Edmund Fitzgerald. The Fitzgerald sank on the evening of Nov. 10, 1975 during a particularly rough storm on Lake Superior. There are no survivors or witnesses to the shipwreck. From the mystery of the wreck, to Gordon Lightfoot’s…

American taxpayers already spent $6 billion to develop GLP-1 drugs, and then pharma lobbyists bought enough politicians to make sure drug companies were allowed to charge Americans the world’s highest prices for those drugs that we already paid for.

You voted for the largest cut to food stamps in American history to pay for the largest tax break for billionaires in American history. Your President is illegally denying nutrition assistance to 16 million kids in defiance of 2 court orders. Maybe sit this one out.

Bread lines about to be a real thing in New York. Congrats.
