During the shutdown, the Senate approved adding $32B to Trump's already record breaking $1 trillion Pentagon budget.
The Senate still hasn't voted on extending ACA subsidies — which would cost $35B.
It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.
It’s about priorities.

Jimmy Kimmel and other late-night comedians have certainly said things about me that I found offensive, even outrageous.
It never crossed my mind to call up the networks and say, "Hey, get rid of this guy."
Because that's not how America works.

Democracy depends on a fearless and free press.
Corporations or ultra-wealthy individuals with many other business interests should not be allowed to control our media.
They cannot be trusted to prioritize the public’s right to know over their own financial interests.
