New Mexico's economy is a fraction of the size of New York City's.

If they can enact universal childcare — and relieve working families of a crushing cost burden — surely we can too.

New Mexico will be the first state to make child care free
The program, which is expected to save families $12,000 per child annually, is available to all residents regardless of income.

They’re sending a message loud and clear: mass deportations to begin in a blue city, in a blue state.

The Trump administration plans an immigration raid in Chicago, Tuesday morning, and will run all week. Between 100 and 200 ICE agents are set to flood the city to carry out the crackdown.
