@kaine.senate.gov @markwarner.bsky.social please urge HHS and the White House to seat the NPP Advisory Council ASAP, and set an aggressive meeting schedule in 2026 for the Council to develop the plan.
Congress passed the National Plan to End Parkinson’s in July of last year with overwhelming bipartisan support. The President signed it, but since then, progress has stalled.
Now we need action. #WhereIsThePDPlan (1/2)

ICE doesn't leave.
14 people were kidnapped in in SoCal yesterday. Westminster HD was raided three times in one day.
Don't think that just because LA isn't in the news, that the state terrorizing neighborhoods isn't still happening.
Chicago is the same. So is Charlotte.

A reminder: Gregory Bovino may be gone and a bunch of his men aren't here anymore but Border Patrol is still in Chicagoland, randomly stopping folks at Home Depots and chasing people through the snow.

No assertion from this administration should be presented as fact unless independently verified
Headlines like this are extremely dangerous. Because moms of young kids are the people who make the bulk of the vaccine decisions for famillies. And for a lot of them, "reading the news" looks like scrolling past headlines on social media in the spare moments of the chaos of caring for kids.

Regular reminder that Axios stories saying Dems are about to cave are likely sourced from GOP staffers trying to make it happen.
Doesn't mean it definitely won't happen. But it's like those NYT stories that Harvard is considering caving (they haven't). The anonymous source was trying to manifest it.

Folks, we need to have a little Civics #101 chat, because apparently the media no longer seems fit to explain to you whats happening.
So quick review:
The House passed a clean CR.
The senate has not passed anything.

hey you want to take a guess what the single most common occupation for working people who get SNAP benefits is
(it's home health aide)
(it's home health aide)
It will never not bother me how often when you’re talking to someone — in life, for work, w/e — who is struggling that that person works in healthcare. Nurses, orderlies, home health aids, people who draw blood, etc

Kushner looks shook. It would be funny if it what they’re doing in Gaza wasn’t so deeply appalling.
P.s., I have yet to *ever* hear Jared Kushner’s voice.
P.p.s., let us remember Kushner’s father is a close personal friend of Netanyahu.
