Gun violence is an everyday occurrence, the Supreme Court has stripped away abortion rights, & affordable housing is in a crisis. We need bold leaders who will fight for transformational change. A leader who will fight for Orlando.

I’ve announced a $50K reward for info on the criminal who killed 5 illegal immigrants Friday. Also directed #OperationLoneStar to be on the lookout. I continue working with state & local officials to ensure all available resources are deployed to respond.

Ten years ago, your typical Republican would say tactics like banning books and removing electeds from office were extreme. Now it’s the party platform.

I know this seems ridiculous and extreme but I need y’all to know that these are the policies that the GOP is looking at to have any kind of electoral future in this country because young voters don’t rock with right-wing fascists.

7k+ students walk out to demand action on gun violence -> The Tennessee 3 joined & brought the action to the floor -> 2 are expelled -> the world pays attention -> special session is being called. Being bold and loud is good strategy.

Marjorie Taylor Greene says that adopted or parents through marriage aren’t real parents because they’re “not biological.” She just told a witness who is a mother through marriage that she is “not a mother.”
