Donald Trump and MAGA Republicans know their unpopular policies are losing policies—so the right-wing Supreme Court is handing them an early Christmas present. We cannot agonize—we must organize to defeat their corrupt agenda at the ballot box.
Trump is turning our highways into corridors of surveillance. @homelandcbp.bsky.social is using license plate cameras to track our movements.
This isn’t about safety. It’s about targeting vulnerable communities and I’m demanding it stop.

IDEA turns 50 this month. I recently visited the Campus School at @bostoncollege.bsky.social where I met students like Will, who told me what IDEA means to him.
We must fully fund IDEA so students like Will have a place to learn and thrive.

My Eliminating Opioid-Related Infectious Disease Act is giving Americans access to life-saving treatment through commonsense programs.
Now, the Trump admin must end its assault on proven science, so we can end this opioid and overdose crisis once and for all.
Trump’s attacks on affordability go beyond just saying it’s a Democratic “scam” to want an affordable life—he’s rolling back the standards that protect you from shakedowns at the gas station. Fuel economy rules protect our wallets and air. Trump just protects Big Oil execs.
This punitive policy jeopardizes housing for 1,100 Bostonians and nearly 4,000 people in Massachusetts, forcing thousands of vulnerable children and families onto the street during winter months. It is unconscionable. Housing is a human right.
Seeking a “big profit” Trump wants to give South Korea, our ally, the ability to make nuclear weapons. Bad idea. This could lead to an arms race between the South, North Korea and China. We need fewer nuclear states, not more.
Jared Isaacman still won't answer if Elon Musk was in the room. Sorry... “Ballroom” when Trump offered him the job. And he is still too deep in Elon’s pocket to run NASA.

Pete Hegseth should be awarded the Medal of Dishonor.
We’ve known about the dangers of phthalates for decades. These everywhere chemicals are harming the health of everyone. Last year, I urged the Biden administration to stop these toxics from leeching into our food. The Trump administration should follow the science.
While Trump dozes off, millions of Americans are wide awake to the fact that they won’t be able to afford health insurance or Christmas presents because of his terrible policies.
