Labor delivers for workers because they do exceptional work. They also secure major investments in domestic manufacturing, making America stronger and better.
Victory! We just won back thousands of UAW jobs. After months of rallying, marching, and campaigning, Stellantis has agreed to Keep the Promise and invest billions in the U.S. Read the full letter from President Fain and Stellantis Department Director Gotinsky.
Graphic with the words "Victory at Stellantis" and the UAW logo superimposed over a picture of President Fain speaking at a Stellantis rally in Detroit.
10 megadonors funded 44% of Trump’s campaign, while the top 10 donors funded 8% of Harris's campaign. Today's politicians are too beholden to the donor class. That's why I co-founded the No PAC caucus, and I've never taken a dime of lobbyist or PAC money.
My new op-ed in @rollingstone.com: Elon Musk’s stunning political influence offers a stark example of how the Supreme Court’s Citizens United decision—which turns 15 this week—enabled billionaires to wield disproportionate power over policy and governance. 🧵 www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...
Trump's order removes birthright citizenship for children born in the US not just to undocumented parents but to "lawful" immigrants who are temporarily on a student visa, H1B/H2B visa, or business visa. So much for the pretense that the Republicans are for legal immigration.
This is a brilliant piece by Sandel + Piketty who argue that the offshoring of manufacturing + condescension towards the way of life of some Americans has cost our party support. We can and must change as a party and offer a vision of government for economic renewal. www.nytimes.com/2025/01/18/o...
Democrats should demand we give Americans a raise in exchange for voting to raise the debt limit. Let's force a vote on increasing the minimum wage which the vast majority of Americans want.
The Democratic Party needs to listen to young people. Let's get back to our roots and be the party of the people. ✅ Rejecting corporate donations for the DNC; ✅ Banning super PACs in Democratic primaries.
Today, we’re launching an open letter to DNC leadership candidates demanding DNC leadership: 1️⃣ Revive the Obama-era ban on corporate donations to the DNC. 2️⃣ Ban SuperPAC spending in Democratic primaries. The time to end the influence of corporate money is now.🧵 actionnetwork.org/petitions/a-...
I'm fighting for Medicare For All. The GOP is fighting to take away your healthcare. -$918 billion in Medicaid cuts -$497 billion in Medicare cuts -$347 billion in combined TANF and SNAP cuts
Americans are sick of watching our democracy be bought and sold by the highest bidders. Democrats should join me and say no to super PAC money in primaries, say no to corporate and lobbyist money for the DNC, and follow in Maine's footsteps and restrict contributions to super PACs.
With Rep. Jonathan Jackson to honor President Carter who shared the admiration Rev. Jackson had for President Carter. President Carter was committed to putting African Americans in his cabinet, on the bench, and in roles from they had been excluded.
Health insurance deductibles today go back to zero. The typical American family will be forced to spend thousands of dollars – plus monthly premiums – before their "coverage" even kicks in. We need #MedicareForAll.
Today 58 percent of Americans hold some license, certificate, or credential beyond high school, including 48 percent who have 2 or 4 year degrees. When it comes to a post secondary credential, the goal should be 90 percent or higher, like our high school graduation rate.
“Ro Khanna, who was elected to Congress in 2016 with a rare endorsement from Carter…knows that the time has come to upend oligarchy and renew democracy…‘ban PAC and lobbyist money, overturn Citizens United, and return power to the people.’”
The federal minimum wage hasn’t budged from $7.25 in 15 years. Thankfully, 88 state/local jurisdictions are raising wage floors in 2025. But we need federal action. No full-time worker should be struggling to afford food and housing, period.
