Trump is sending troops to Portland with the goal of “doing a number” on the city. We know what this means. He wants to stoke fear and chaos and trigger violent interactions and riots to justify expanded authoritarian control. Let’s not take the bait! Portland is peaceful and strong and we will take care of each other.

I OBJECTED to the Republican plan to fund Trump’s ballroom because we took an oath to a Constitution that doesn’t have a king. I encourage my Republican colleagues to focus on bringing down costs for the American people, not bending the knee to an authoritarian strongman.

I voted NO on sending more bombs and shells to Israel. The campaign conducted by the Netanyahu government is at odds with our American values and American law, which requires recipients of American assistance to facilitate the delivery of humanitarian aid.

With Republicans it's always the same strategy: Families lose, billionaires win. 🔗

Why did Republicans gut health care? To fund tax breaks for billionaires. Why'd they gut child nutrition benefits? Tax breaks for billionaires. Why'd they add $30 TRILLION to the debt? Tax breaks for billionaires!!! They’re fighting for billionaires. We’re fighting for YOU.
