I am very excited to see this! Lets pressure more of our senators to join the "Fight Club" Its Fightin Time!

Wow — Senators Van Hollen, Smith, Murphy, Sanders, Warren, Markey, Merkley, and Heinrich have created an official internal "Fight Club." The group is challenging Schumer & Gillibrand's leadership, arguing they're using an old, corporate-friendly playbook. nytimes.com/2025/11/24/us/…



Very Excited that my colleague Shafeka Hashash and so many amazing leaders in our community are named to the @ZohranKMamdani transition team!

Love to see @EconomicSecProj's Dir. Shafeka Hashash, Fellow Anisha Steephen & alum Rebecca Bailin on the Mamdani transition team. Three stellar humans helping to chart the course for NYC's future. mailchi.mp/zohranfornyc/p…

Gen Z is already struggling to find jobs, afford rent, and buy groceries. Now Republicans want them to pay double for health insurance on top of it all. nytimes.com/2025/10/05/opi…


We need to fight back. Read my friend and colleague @nataliefoster laying it out on the stakes of what happens if we dont fight back.

For young adults facing crushing student loans, rising rent and grocery bills, and one of the toughest job markets in years, rising healthcare premiums could be the breaking point. Starting Nov.1, 24 million people who receive their healthcare insurance through the Affordable…

1/ Something is fundamentally wrong when families are spending MORE on childcare than a mortgage or rent. Childcare is a textbook example of a broken market, failing parents, providers, and kids alike. That’s why over the past year, @rooseveltinst and @communitychange, in…

BREAKING: Israel has just killed Dr. Marwan Sultan in Gaza. They dropped a bomb on his home, murdering him, his wife, and their children. He wasn’t a combatant. He was a doctor who devoted his life to saving others.

Republican Congressmen are betting working people will forget what the GOP just voted to do. We can’t let that happen. Accountability Summer starts now.

More than three dozen members of the Congressional Progressive Caucus have signed up to hold events in GOP districts targeting the "Big, Beautiful Bill," a source familiar w/ the matter tells me

Every Republican who promised their constituents they would never cut Medicaid - and broke that promise today - was lying the whole time. They deserve to lose power.

He just added $4 trillion to the debt.

Speaker Mike Johnson five months ago: "The number one threat to our nation right now is our debt. It's not China, Russia, Iran, or North Korea. It's the debt. And we take that very seriously. Congress has kicked the can down the road for decades and we're out of road."

AOC: "On this point of tax on tips, as one of the only people in this body who has lived off of tips, I want to tell you a little bit about the scam ... the cap on that is $25,000 while you're jacking up taxes on people who make less than $50,000 across the US ... while kicking…

They continue to disappear people. I know you think it will stop at "these" people but I promise you that you and I are next on the list. Some of the black & brown agents dont realize that one day they will come for their families too. If they could, they would bring back slavery

ICE detains father in front of wife & 3 kids—they had the wrong man. "They mistook him for another man. They were going to separate him from his family. The trauma is done." Dozens of agents—in ski masks, hats, sunglasses & body armor—stalked the hallways after court hearings…

McGovern: "So I say to my Republican colleagues -- what's wrong with you people? In this bill you provide a $2 billion tax break for gun silencers, but you cut SNAP benefits for vulnerable families. Jesus Christ!"
