No worker should be fired or disciplined by a machine. No employer should be able to watch their workers in break rooms or collect data to predict potential union activity. It’s time to put workers first in the technological age.
As prices keep rising, the FTC is using its limited time and resources to attack trans people. To put it plainly: the FTC is choosing a harmful political stunt over real consumer protection. Its despicable.
F.T.C. Sues Group That Advises on Transgender Medical Treatments
The group, World Professional Association for Transgender Health, offers guidelines on medical treatment for transgender patients.
Trump continues to spend billions of your dollars to block affordable clean energy, to keep American union workers unemployed, and to make our grid less reliable. Congress needs to block Trump’s billion-dollar attack on American-made offshore wind.
Trump Pays $765 Million to Kill 4 More Offshore Wind Leases
The deal with developer Invenergy includes a commitment to build geothermal generation in addition to natural gas.

TPS holders are our friends, our colleagues, and our neighbors. The Trump administration’s cruel attempts to terminate TPS for Haitians have put thousands of our community members in danger. We must protect TPS and guarantee Haitian TPS holders the dignity they deserve.
Trump’s dangerous $1.2 trillion “Golden Dome” boondoggle will not protect Americans. It’s just a giveaway to defense contractor buddies like Elon Musk. We’re demanding answers from Hegseth on Trump’s trillion-dollar scam.

Pride Month is about celebrating our LGBTQ+ family, friends, neighbors, and community. Honoring those who paved the way, uplifting the next generation, and standing tall beside anyone facing hate and division. I’m proud to continue to celebrate Pride this month and every month!
We had an Iran nuclear deal. Trump tore it up. Now, his “deal” includes a $300 billion payoff for Iran and no new limits on its nuclear program. This is a joke. Congress must review and reject this deal immediately.
Trump Angrily Defends Iran Deal and Reveals, Again, His Obsession With Obama
President Trump denied that the United States would be part of a $300 billion rebuilding fund for Iran and argued that his agreement was better than the one Barack Obama struck in 2015.
In February, Renee King of Fund Black Founders shared her testimony on the hurdles many Black small business owners face. Last week, we met in Washington to uplift the SPARK Act, which would support the growth and creation of minority-owned small businesses nationwide.

Last week, I heard from Boston-based Sheena Collier @TheCollierCollection and creatives from across the country with @TakeCreativeControl about the barriers entrepreneurs from underserved communities face to access capital and resources.

Tesla wants Americans to believe its so-called Full Self-Driving technology is safer than human drivers. Then it should prove it. @blumenthal.senate.gov and I are calling on NHTSA to demand the data, test Tesla’s claims, and strengthen AV safety data reporting.
