    To have your place of worship threatened during the holiest days of the year - appalling. I'm with you, and my team and I are here for whatever you need. Stay safe.

    “In counties where Trump got 60 percent to 80 percent of the vote, the death rate is twice as high as in counties where he got less than 40 percent. In counties where he got more than 80 percent of the vote, the death rate is three times as high” Death cults don’t value liberty.

    . told me today about reconciliation negotiations: "it's been really clear that that [3.5t] is the floor, not the ceiling" Says convos with progressives have not been about losing that, but making sure priorities are funded

    The blood of this innocent Muslim girl who has been stabbed 50 times & mutilated stains 's face. Imagine if Muslim men committed such sadistic killing against a Hindu, Christian, or Jewish girl. Imagine the outrage. Shameless hypocrisy.

    A new generation has determined to define their place in American life on their own terms. Americans elected Muslims to Congress for the first time, such as Ilhan Omar, who successfully challenged an archaic rule banning headwear in the House chamber.

    We continue to fight for a bill that meets the moment. That means adequately funding physical infrastructure, caregiving, housing, workforce development, and tackling the climate crisis. We have made it clear that we need to pass a big budget package alongside a bipartisan bill.

    On Labor Day we reflect on the blood, sweat, tears, and even life given by organized labor and the working class in the fight for dignity, safety, and fair treatment in the workplace. The fight isn’t over. Happy Labor Day.
