Rev. Jesse Jackson’s vision of a multiracial, working-class coalition changed America.

He inspired me and millions of others to fight for justice and unity.

Now it’s up to us to carry his vision forward.

In a moment like this, when tensions are high, part of the job of the president is to remind us of the ties that bind us together.

to investigating James Comey over a harmless β€œ8647” post, to arresting a sitting mayor for inspecting an immigration center in his own city. This administration is a regime, and its goal is fear. They target our coalition members relentlessly.

Marjorie, I know the truth confuses you and facts ain’t your strong suitβ€”so let me break it down real slow:

George Floyd didn’t die from drugs. He died because Derek Chauvin knelt on his neck for 9 minutes. That’s called murder.

We all saw it. You can lie to yourself all day, but the rest of us remember exactly what happened.

Trump’s new budget proposal would slash funding for national parks, monuments, historic sites, seashores, and trails by nearly 25%, cutting more than $1.2 billion from the $4.8 billion Park Service budget.

Yet national parks generate $55.6 billion in economic output, benefiting the U.S. economy far more than they cost.
