The occupant of the White House is coming after our free speech.

He wants to dictate what you can watch, what you can say, & what you can read.

This is a five alarm fire for our First Amendment rights and anyone who cares about our democracy.
Trump’s militarization of DC is not about safety.
 
It’s about suppressing Black leadership, stopping Black progress & criminalizing Black & brown youth.
 
If Republicans actually cared about safety, they’d invest in prevention, mental health, & community-based supports that keep people safe. #FreeDC
Republicans are pushing a bill to try 14-year-olds in DC as adults.

This doesn’t make communities safer—it only traumatizes children & perpetuates racism.

Just ask the Exonerated 5.

If they really cared about safety, they’d support trauma-informed solutions & violence prevention programs.
@SecRubio, did you direct Netanyahu to surge aid and baby formula to Gaza?

Entire families are being murdered and babies are being starved. My colleagues and I are appealing to you — act NOW.
This ruling affirms what we’ve known: Trump’s attempt to fire Governor Lisa Cook is unlawful.

The courts must preserve the Fed’s independence & rein in Trump’s brazen power grab.

I look forward to Governor Cook participating in tomorrow’s Fed meeting.
My demand to Chairman Powell is clear: the Federal Reserve must take action to uphold its mandate of maximum employment for ALL workers.

And he MUST affirm the Fed’s independence, including from unlawful firings like that of Lisa Cook.
