We must tax the rich. Because if you must own it all, you must pay taxes on it. We must break up monopolies. We used to do this. What happened? We must support small business, unions, and the American worker. We need to overturn Citizens United.

It says a lot about our country that the FBI had no interest in interviewing Brett Kavanaugh but wants to talk to Mark Kelly.

This is how our government has been corrupted:

1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in the donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat

We must get big money out of politics.

It is the root of our dysfunction.

Zohran Mamdani has called for a boycott of Starbucks until the company can bargain a fair contract with its striking workers. We joined members of the mayor-elect's team on the Starbucks picket line in NYC.

Two incomes instead of one for the same standard of living that we had in the 80s. We don't talk about this near enough. Families are really tired and stressed.

The Founding Fathers required Senate confirmation for key appointments for a reason. Donald Trump doesn’t like that reason. It’s to ensure high ranking government officials are loyal to the country not just the president. That’s not what Trump wants. joycevance.substack.com/p/explanatio...

This is a truly incredible man. Not only is he an American god damn hero, he truly is American down to his very bones. I stand with Mark Kelly and his fellow legislaters in making it clear to our troops, "You have the right and duty to refuse illegal orders."

I’ve been in or around politics for over a half-century now.

I’ve watched as corporations and the super-rich flooded D.C. with campaign cash and ransacked our system.

It won't be easy, but here’s how we break the corporate oligarchy and return power to the people.
