Listen Kaine, Hassan, King, Cortez-Masto, Durbin, Shaheen, Rosen, and Fetterman. You're NOT gonna take away my 2025 election joy. We voted in that election for folks to FIGHT for us. That doesn't include YOU.
YOU are what we voted AGAINST last Tuesday. So I'm gonna hang on to that.

really important element of this basically total victory is that it puts the fear of god in republican incumbents and may bring the redistricting push to a total halt

GOP: I can't believe Dems are trying to stop us from taking away your healthcare. Just for that, no food for you.

Thank you @markwarner.bsky.social ! As a Virginian, we expect you to continue standing strong in this fight!
These lies are pissing me off.
This isn’t about health care for undocumented immigrants – that’s already against the law.
It’s about the fact that Republicans are intentionally skyrocketing your premiums.

A program in Flint, MI, gave $1,500 to any/all pregnant people and $500/month for the first year of their infant’s life.
Among the benefits, those babies experienced lower rates of prematurity and low birth weight, which resulted in fewer NICU admissions, saving the city of Flint $6.2 million/year.

The murder of Charlie Kirk was criminal, wrong, and should be condemned.
And Charlie Kirk was a horrible, hateful man who spent his life radicalizing young people to embrace their worst demons by targeting women, people of color, immigrants, and the marginalized.
I refuse to sanitize him.

Charlottesville #besmartforkids team had a great time tonight @ #NNO talking to our community about securely storing firearms. I was especially encouraged by parents' willingness to ask other parents if guns are securely stored before sending their kids on a play date! 👏🏼👏🏼 @besmartforkids.bsky.social

I’d be happy to outlaw gerrymandering. I think it’s ridiculous for politicians to draw their own maps, but I’m not for unilateral disarmament when Republicans are trying to rig the midterms. We need to fight back or risk being locked out of power for a long, long time.

The rate of gun thefts from cars has soared over the past decade, which poses a significant risk to our communities. Securely storing guns in cars is one way gun owners can help deter crime and save lives.
