    We urge to reopen the U.S. consulate in Jerusalem, reissue State Department & customs guidances to clarify that settlements are inconsistent with international law, & oppose the forced expulsion of Palestinian families in East Jerusalem & throughout Palestinian territory.

    Reminder that fossil fuel corporations rely on $15 billion in handouts from the government to line their pockets. We need to end this corporate welfare!

    I am near speechless. An Exxon official admitting, on camera, how the company works to prevent effective climate action by using third party “whipping boys” so no one knows it’s them. These recordings should be played on every TV station in the world.

    Authoritarians around the world are taking pages from Trump’s playbook. The will of the people of Peru must be respected. And the U.S. must stand for democracy, fair elections and ballot access both here at home and globally.

    A welcome shift in the way Jewish leaders have reacted to previous efforts to undermine ’s leadership. More and more of our community is seeing the right’s attacks for what they are: a racist strategy to stoke fear and division among progressives.

    No need for an insurrection. The courts, the state legislatures and the filibuster will undermine Democracy more. We need to pass the Voting Rights Act now!

    We must urge our government to support and stand with those fighting for equality around the globe. This decision in Turkey is a huge step backwards. In my meetings with Turkish human rights warriors at home & abroad, I have seen their resistance and admire their resilience.

    I had a wide-ranging conversation with Rep. Andre Carson, one of three Muslims currently serving in Congress, about how his faith and racial identity inform his approach to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict & the fight against antisemitism and Islamophobia

    Nearly 40 House Democrats are demanding Minority Leader McCarthy take what they call "immediate action" to address the behavior of GOP Rep. Greene, whose actions, they say in a letter obtained by CNN, "could lead to violence against members of Congress."

    We are devastated to hear the Tekeze bridge in has been destroyed. This was one of the main supply routes into Tigray which means aid efforts will be even more severely hampered than before. The IRC continues to call for unfettered humanitarian access to the region.

    These kinds of threats from leadership is antithetical to a functioning democracy and toxic for people who come to Washington to do the right thing.

    Let’s make freedom ring. Real freedom, from the hood to the holler. We can start by taking our seat back from Rand Paul. I’m running.
