Last night, my team filed a motion to defend voters in California.

DOJ sued 8 states. My firm has filed to protect voters in all 8 states.

We will never back down from the fight to protect free and fair elections.
DOJ has sued 8 states for refusing to turn over their full, unreacted voter files.

My team has now filed motions to defend voters in 7 of those cases in ME, MI, MN, NH, NY, OR and PA.

I suggest that DOJ monitor the docket in the remaining one in CA.

BREAKING: A court rejected the Trump administration's attempt to dismiss our lawsuit challenging government censorship of medical research that references the LGBTQ community.

This is great news, and our work to defend scientific research will continue in court.

With heavily-armed federal agents and National Guard troops patrolling the streets in DC, knowing our rights is critical to keeping ourselves and our communities safe.

No matter what uniform they wear, police and military troops are bound by the Constitution.

There is no moral justification for today’s extraordinary concentration of wealth.

It is distorting politics, rigging markets, and granting unprecedented power to a handful of people.

Closing our staggering wealth gap is crucial to the survival of our economy and our democracy.

It has been a bedrock principle since our nation's founding that America's military must not be used to police our own communities.

This opinion affirms that Donald Trump's use of the Marines and California National Guard in L.A. was unlawful and unjustified.

New Mexico has issued a public health order that removes federal restrictions to COVID-19 vaccine access so that pharmacies in New Mexico can vaccinate people of all ages and risk profiles. Every state need to do this!

This vile administration tried to deport children, in the middle of the night, to Guatemala.

CHILDREN!
Judge: I got a call at 2:36 a.m. because the govt chose this time on a holiday weekend to execute this plan. I have been up since then. I haven't been able to reach anyone from govt until this morning at 9:30 a.m. So absent this intervention, all children would already have been sent to Guatemala!

Beef prices have hit record highs this Labor Day Weekend — in part thanks to Trump's tariffs.

Remember when Trump said he would bring down the cost of groceries? https://youtu.be/9EXi6xyOXSk?feature=shared

Trump and Republicans attack unions because they know organized workers are powerful.

But let’s be clear: workers built this country—not billionaires.
