The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns.

Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care.

The list goes on and on.

Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

💯 We’re way past due.

Criminals deserve due process because due process is literally how we determine whether someone is, *in fact*, a criminal

Watch live here

We are the ones we’ve been waiting for

500+ people of all ages showed up in our rural Iowa town of Decorah to say #HandsOff! Population 8,000. This is what democracy looks like 💪

Can’t emphasize this enough: if you’re feeling overwhelmed by the debased assault on our country, the antidote is connecting with other people in the flesh who are feeling the same way. There are millions of us.

There’s no greater red flag than someone who says things are going well here right now.

NEW: The Department of Justice says it will no longer fight to protect the right of pregnant people to emergency abortion care.

While a judge has temporarily blocked Idaho’s ban on such care, patients’ lives could still be at risk because of the Trump administration's actions.
