Corporations got us into this mess, but even they can't escape the devastating reality of climate change.

Washington state’s millionaire-funded ballot initiative I-645 would take money out of YOUR pocket and give it to millionaires and billionaires who just want a tax break. We won’t let them get away with it. Washington: You know what to do. Vote NO on I-645!

We cannot allow Republicans to continue to demonize immigrants. Full stop.

I am standing with Starbucks workers who are demanding fair contracts, better pay, and safe working conditions. Workers across this country deserve a living wage! #NoContractNoCoffee

Democracies don't fall because of outside invaders. They fall because leaders dismantle them from the inside. They attack the press. They intimidate judges. They use the power of government to punish political opponents. Sound familiar? We have to fight this with everything we have.

Shocker: Donald Trump is lying again. 🙄 He didn't lower prescription drug prices — he sided with Big Pharma, rolled back cost-lowering efforts, and left families paying more. He knows the truth. He just doesn't care.

My parents spent every last cent in their bank account to send me to America when I was 16. Fighting for justice and dignity for our immigrant neighbors has never been “just politics.” For me, it’s personal.

Republicans sent us home early so they can get a head start on ANOTHER vacation. Americans' premiums are doubling and tripling in the new year. But Speaker Johnson doesn’t care.

Donald Trump can't even run the United States – and now he wants to run Venezuela? His actions are unconstitutional, illegal, and not what the American people want.

I warned Biden and Harris directly: Our silence on Gaza was morally, legally, and politically wrong. We were told it wasn't in the data. That wasn't strategy – it was risk aversion dressed up as wisdom. Democrats cannot make that same mistake again this midterm season.

If Starbucks CEO Brian Niccol can make $96 MILLION in just 4 months, he can afford to pay his workers a living wage. The problem isn’t scarcity, it’s greed.

.Zohran Kwame Mamdani’s victory in New York City shows that working people across the country are ready for government that works for them. Go to to find out how to get involved!

Immigrants are NOT criminals, and immigration is NOT a crime. Don’t be fooled by Trump’s lies.

Being undocumented is NOT a crime in the U.S. Trump needs to stop treating our neighbors like criminals and wasting resources to terrorize our communities. Enough is enough.

Really, really hate to say it … but I told you so.

Fascism is violence. And we resist that violence with a nonviolent movement that brings together millions of people in peaceful demonstrations. Join us. RSVP for the next Resistance Lab here:

Being undocumented in this country is not a crime. Our immigration system is civil, not criminal. The words we use matter. Let’s speak the truth.

Someone’s right to carry does not obliterate our right to live.

The immigration system is a CIVIL system. It is NOT a crime to be undocumented.

NYC: don’t forget to get out and vote! Zohran Kwame Mamdani and Brad Lander always put working people first. And remember: don’t rank Cuomo!

Today, House Republicans passed a bill banning trans youth nationwide from participating in sports. This legislation is as extreme and hateful as the legislators proposing it. I voted no, and I urge every Senator to do the same.

There are no kings in America – not now, not ever. We are making sure of it.

EVERY person deserves their day in court. Republicans have no right to ignore due process for immigrants. My amendment requires a conviction before people can be deported.

It’s time to tax the rich and invest in working families.

In America, we don’t have kings, we don’t have crowns, and the people will NEVER back down!
