Nurses deserve #SafeStaffing! We banged pots and pans for him but they are STILL dealing with the chaos of a #Pandemic that is UNDERFUNDED & PERSISTS: The least we can do is ensure they are given REASONABLE working hours-The results of continuing to work EXCESSIVELY can be FATAL!

We're taking our message to the public! With 30,000 nurses bargaining for new union contracts this fall, it's time for New York's healthcare leaders to listen to nurses who say, "Safe Staffing Saves Lives!" Let us know if you see a billboard near you!

Think about this. There is not a single state or county in America today where a full-time worker making minimum wage can afford the rent for a two-bedroom home. Does that sound remotely acceptable to you?

Abortion is legal in California. It will remain that way. I just signed a bill that makes our state a safe haven for women across the nation. We will not cooperate with any states that attempt to prosecute women or doctors for receiving or providing reproductive care.

It shouldn't matter what age you are. No one needs an AR-15 or any other assault weapon designed to massacre people. When we had an assault weapons ban from 1994-2004, mass shootings went down 43%. After it expired, mass shootings tripled. End the filibuster. Ban assault weapons.

Congratulations to
@SummerForPA
for her extraordinary grassroots campaign in Pennsylvania District 12 in which she defeated millions of dollars of right-wing super PAC money, as well as the Democratic establishment. Summer will be a great, progressive member of Congress.
