Officer 2: “Get out of here!”

The confusion is not surprising. The shooting officer had his phone out too.

This deserves a clear and fair investigation

This is amazing news for our neighbors in Albuquerque!

Healthcare is a human right. Everyone deserves access and care, regardless of their circumstances.

I’m so grateful to the UNM medical team who is doing this vital work on the ground.

I started my career as a public school teacher on the westside of San Antonio.

Now I’m back as a candidate for the U.S. Senate.

This city taught me how to fight for working families — and I’m ready to take that fight to our nation’s capital.

Our communities are built on the strength, resilience, and love of the families who have lived here for generations.

What our immigrant communities are being subjected to right now is unconstitutional, illegal, and immoral. No one should live in fear in the country we call home.

20-year-old West Virginia National Guard member, Sarah Beckstrom, died a day after volunteering to serve in DC so that others could enjoy Thanksgiving with their families. She deserves our gratitude, not political exploitation by a shameless president who scapegoats immigrants to swell his power.

From the people that pretend to be Christian, they hit a clergyman directly while protesting.

They’ve gone from attacking marginalized communities to attacking the community in general. Now they are openly attacking religious institutions.

We recognize it has fundamentally changed from the policy in the 1980s, 1990s, 2000s, & it's a situation where US has tariffs against every trading partner... what we we can control is developing new partnerships, including w/econ giants of Asia"

Ken Paxton and John Cornyn claim to stand for freedom, family, and faith. 

But you can't stand for freedom and control women's bodies.

You can't stand for family and vote against paid family leave.

You can't stand for faith and sell out the poor to give tax cuts to the rich.
