  1. Putin complains we’re sending arms to Ukraine. Russians manned anti-aircraft batteries against U.S. pilots in Vietnam. The equivalent would be putting Patriots with American technical advisors into Ukraine to engage Russian aircraft.

    Republicans across the country are attacking Americans’ rights, from reproductive freedoms to ballot access. Lurking behind those efforts? Right-wing billionaires using gobs of dark money to push their corrupt agenda.

    Republicans devised a decades-long scheme to capture our Supreme Court. Their reward is The Court That Dark Money Built, which delivers wins for corporate special interests – every single time.

    America’s 15 highest income earners pay a lower average tax rate than teachers & firefighters. That isn’t fair, which is why I’m fighting to close loopholes and fund the hollowed-out IRS.

    I can’t wait to see police tape around the mansions of Russian oligarchs. That’s why I’m pushing for quicker asset seizures & real financial transparency for kleptocrats. Putin & his allies should face consequences.

    Every year, more dark money gushes through the Citizens United floodgates. People have had enough. Let’s pass the DISCLOSE Act to shine a light on those trying to manipulate our democracy from behind closed doors.

    Putin & his oligarchs stash property, yachts, and art all over the world. My Asset Seizure for Ukrainian Reconstruction Act would let us confiscate & sell those ill-gotten luxuries and send the $$$ to the people of Ukraine. Sounds pretty good, right?
