My white supremacist/ facist colleagues are on their big racist binger, but they'll raise money instead of getting fired bc hating Muslims is apparently an acceptable form of bigotry in this country.

Should I hold my breath for the bipartisan resolutions, censures, and hearings to come?

In Trump's America, a thoughtcrime is an actionable and deportable offense.

You either love this country and what it stands for, or you think this is acceptable. But it definitely can't be both.

Introduced my Abolish Super PACs Act today because in a true democracy, Elon Musk and every other multi-billionaire's dollar shouldn't be more powerful than your vote and your voice.

It's also time to tax him, and that'll be a different bill for a different day soon!

Once again our timelines are flooded with horrific images of Palestinian babies massacred by the Israeli government.

Israel has consistently violated the ceasefire and in the past two weeks, cut off all aid to Gaza. Just last night, they killed 400+ people.

This US-backed genocide must end.

Trump said he’d end the war in the Middle East then sent $12 billion in weapons to Israel and started bombing Yemen.

At the same time, he’s criminalizing anti-war speech and repressing dissent.

This is an authoritarian who'll throw us into another senseless war funded by your taxpayer dollars.

This is a signal to the American people that Democrats will not fight for them.

We have to be using our votes for leverage right now. To protect the social services folks are asking us to. To invest in our communities.

Otherwise Republicans will just keep running us over.

😂😂

Where you been 👀

Hey friends, can you follow my new official side bluesky @repsummerlee.bsky.social.

You asked. We’re all in now! lol

It's ok for folks to mention my personal! We're just not able to list them on our congressional websites is all

This is my personal bluesky. We can only link my official accounts on that website.

Well if the people don't choose to exert any power over the people they gave 3 branches of government to we're in a world of trouble bc they still run the docket.

EVERY tactic (legislative, boycotts, strikes, cases) we employ is to keep them from doing their worst until you get rid of them...

"Moderate" Republicans swore they wouldn't cut Medicaid yet last night they punked out as soon as Trump called. Last week, the Senate did the same

Over 3M in PA rely on Medicaid + CHIP for healthcare

I wonder if our Senator McCormick will keep serving Trump or start serving the people of his state

Quit with the "all critiques = attacks." I'm talking about what we need to do to regain the trust of voters so that we can win and secure our democracy from collapse. Public polls have dem favorabilty at damn near non-existent. If we can't withstand earnest critique, we can't ever recover.

The party is not one person or one proposal.

People keep asking us what Dems are going to do about all this.

I don’t have *all* the answers, but I know for sure this is where we need to start.

Dems can't talk about the corporate + billionaire takeover of the Republican-led government while still answering to its own corp + billionaire donors.

We can't serve two masters.

We can’t save our country if we’re still deciding if we're the party of the money or the many

I also encourage yall to stop electing them, but here we are...

And no... i'm not actually holding my breath here for these folks...

Trump/Exec Branch can only erode the checks and balances and grab power from another branch with House + Senate Republicans' consent. I encourage my Republican colleagues to grow a spine + affirm that we're a co-equal branch of government and not just a dictator's advisory committee...

And while you may disagree, I think it both serves constituents and the responsibilities of my office to oppose US funded atrocities and to work towards lasting peace FOR ALL instead.

Thank you for expressing your concern.

It's the point you made. I've mentioned Hamas + hostages countless times since that day, but I don't believe that's the offense you've taken, but instead mentioning the absolute devastation in Gaza in any way, the immeasurable loss and blatant atrocities there has proven the problem for some.

It was posted on X, Facebook, Instagram, and my website.

It's why will work and fight fervently every day of the 119th and beyond for justice, peace, accountability... until that more perfect union is actualized for even the least of these and in between.

Thank you, PA-12. We're ready.

Yesterday, I had the honor of being sworn in to represent the people of PA-12 in the US House of Representatives for my 2nd term.

I will never take for granted the position my district has entrusted me or the history and ancestry I am a part of.

Guess I'm just stuck in DC until Elon Musk tells Donald he's ok with us passing a budget for the nation...

Please thank your mom for calling in and talking to my team!

Honestly, I don't want to hear other people sing either lol

Thank you, Senator!

At the theatre watching Wicked for my birthday and trying not to be one of those people who get put out for singing.

Pray for me and the theatre goers.
