Texas Democrats did NOT “flee”.
They are breaking a quorum.
They protecting the people’s voices and the integrity of our elections.
They are risking their careers for the future of our democracy.
These Dems are brave and courageous; not cowards.
Stop the redistricting.

On this John Lewis National Day of Action, we remember John’s determination to put his body, heart and mind in the way of injustice and oppression. Honor this hero of the Civil Rights Movement by making good trouble to defend democracy and freedom.

Under my administration, Illinois has jumped from 30th to 13th in CNBC's Top States for Business — a historic high for our state.
It's a testament to the progress we've made here and a clear sign our fiscal responsibility is paying off.

Absolutely love Mamdani and am overjoyed for him!! So happy to see the people of NYC vote for this young and progressive face!!
When he announced his run for mayor back in October, Zohran Mamdani was a state lawmaker unknown to most New York City residents.
Who is Zohran Mamdani? State lawmaker seeks to become New York City's first Muslim and Indian American mayor
He's seeking to become the city's first Muslim and Indian American mayor, not to mention its youngest mayor in generations.

This is oligarchy. This is obscene.
While 60% live paycheck to paycheck & kids go hungry, Jeff Bezos, worth $230 billion, goes to Venice on his $500 million yacht for a $20 million wedding & spends $5 million on a ring while his real tax rate is just 1.1%.
End this oligarchy.

Unjust and unconstitutional strikes on Iran have consequences.
The ongoing closure of the Strait of Hormuz will spike natural gas prices.
Potential retaliation puts American lives at stake.
Trump once again bypasses Congress and the Constitution.
So much for no new wars.

Tonight, I introduced legislation to stop Trump from from leading us into an illegal war with Iran.
Another war in the Middle East could cost countless lives, waste trillions more dollars, and lead to even more deaths, more conflict, and more displacement.

One word. Fascism.
Senator Padilla was forcibly removed from DHS Secretary Kristi Noem’s press conference in Los Angeles while attempting to ask a question.
Padilla was thrown down and handcuffed. A senator in his own state! (He has since been released.)
The Trump regime is out of control.
