Jimmy Kimmel isn't returning to the airwaves because of "thoughtful conversations" with Disney executives.

He's back because consumers sent Disney a clear message: selling out our fundamental rights is not an acceptable cost of doing business.

ICE continues their violation of our civil liberties by targeting community members for exercising their constitutionally protected freedom of speech and right to protest. We will will not back down and we will protect our communities.

If you are wondering what you can do to stop the atrocities in Gaza, I have a bill for that. This Block the Bombs Act would withhold weapons to Israel and demand they comply with US and international human rights laws. Is your member of Congress a sponsor?

I’d like to wish Senator Bernie Sanders a Happy Birthday🥳. His commitment and clarity in fighting for a working people's agenda continues to resonate with millions across our country. Thank you Bernie for inspiring and energizing generations of working people to fight for the future we deserve.

Delia Ramirez and Bernie Sanders share a hug and smile at each other. The background reads “Happy Birthday Bernie!”

Grateful for partners like Ted Mason for Cook County Commissioner, Mayor Andrew Goczkowski and the Main Township Democrats who were out with us today talking with neighbors (and their pups) about their concerns and collecting signatures to get great democratic candidates on the ballot.

Thank you to everyone that came to the 33rd Ward Working Families canvass launch. It's an honor to knock on doors with dedicated neighbors and progressive allies who are on the front lines protecting our communities from Trump's hateful agenda.

Trump swore an oath to protect the American people and defend our constitution. Instead he is declaring war on Americans, while invoking symbols of the Confederacy. It's treason and he should be impeached.

Donald Trump is trying to ensure we stop protesting. He's trying to shove us into submission. Let me be clear, the Illinois Legislative Latino Caucus will do anything in our power to hold the line.

Our movement is not backing down.

Together with Bernie Sanders, we are taking on the oligarchs and fighting for a progressive agenda that is built with, by, and for working people.

Let's not mince words about what we're seeing with our own eyes. These are the unfiltered ramblings and actions of someone who wants to be king and who doesn't intend to be accountable to voters.

Trump and his oligarch friends have a clear agenda: tax cuts for the wealthy funded by working people. They enrich themselves while an authoritarian President destroys our democracy.
Join me in sending a clear message: we are fighting back and we are not backing down. 🔗RSVP at bit.ly/rsvpchicago
