Good. This attempt by the Trump administration to arrest and deport a legal permanent resident over their speech is an alarming violation of immigration law and the first amendment, and will only make our Jewish communities less safe.
A federal judge in NY has blocked any effort by the Trump administration to deport Mahmoud Khalil – whose arrest and imminent deportation Trump celebrated on Turth Social today — until further proceedings play out. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
Since Roe v. Wade was overturned, anti-abortion extremists have relentlessly threatened and attacked patients and health care providers—blatantly violating federal law.  Instead of prosecuting these criminals, Trump and Republicans are trying to gut this critical protection.
Today, on International Women’s Day, we celebrate the outstanding achievements of women and girls in the US and across the globe. Women of all ages, backgrounds, and nationalities are taking on leadership positions, fighting for basic human rights and equity.
How did the Trump administration mark National Consumer Protection week? They let JP Morgan Chase, Wells Fargo, and Bank of America off the hook after scamming Americans out of $1 billion. This administration cares more about feeding corporate greed than protecting consumers.
The CFPB is dropping a lawsuit against JPMorgan Chase, Wells Fargo, Bank of America and Zelle that accused the banks of failing to protect hundreds of thousands of consumers from rampant fraud on Zelle. apnews.com/article/cfpb...
The numbers speak for themselves - don’t be fooled by the lies! The CBO confirmed that the GOP must cut Medicaid or Medicare to reach their $2 trillion budget proposal. It's a shame that Trump & Congressional Republicans want to strip health care away from millions to pay for billionaire tax cuts.
NEW: Republicans cannot meet their own budget target without cutting Medicare or Medicaid, budget office says The math is simple 👇 House Budget requires E&C to cut spending by $880 billion. CBO says E&C oversees $581 billion outside Medicare/Medicaid. www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...
The Social Security Administration is already feeling the effects of Trump and Musk's illegal and careless cuts. Working Americans pay into Social Security with every paycheck they earn – except for the ultra-wealthy, who stop paying as of today.
Meanwhile SSA staff in turmoil due to firings, resignations & retirements report a system in dissolution — increased phone wait times, canceled disability hearings, morale "in toilet" — & warn benefits may stop. W/ @reinlwapo.bsky.social @jeffstein.bsky.social www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
Not only do public television stations like WTTW play a critical role in educating our kids, but they also connect our communities.   Local stations shine a light on the people, places, and stories that are the fabric of our neighborhoods. We must protect public broadcasting.
The rain isn’t going to stop me from rallying for what's right.   I refuse to let Trump and his billionaire sidekick Elon Musk get away with illegally firing workers. We must all come together and make our voices heard.
Trump’s ambush of our ally, Ukrainian President Zelensky in the Oval Office last week was a travesty for U.S. international standing and credibility & a triumph for our adversary Vladimir Putin. The US must always stand for freedom & democracy around the world. www.washingtonpost.com/world/2025/0...
The CHIPS and Science Act funded cutting-edge research, brought thousands of strong, good-paying jobs back to the U.S., and powered a resurgence in American semiconductor manufacturing. #JointAddress
Trump wants to gut your lifesaving benefits to give tax cuts to billionaires and the ultra-wealthy.   Let's not forget who was in the front row at his inauguration... #TaxTheRich #JointAddress
Billionaires at inauguration
The United States is and has always been a nation of immigrants, and our country and economy benefit from immigration. To all those immigrants facing unjust harassment from federal law enforcement, please be sure to know your rights. #JointAddress schakowsky.house.gov/conozca-sus-...
Social Security is your hard-earned money; it is not an entitlement. President Donald Trump and his unelected billionaire sidekick Elon Musk think they alone can decide if you get your Social Security check. They had better think again. #JointAddress
