    So pleased the House passed today. This is a big win for democracy! For too long, shady special interests have called the shots, using their pocketbooks to drown out the voice of the people. Today's vote represents a big step to end this culture of corruption.

    Religious intolerance against all faiths must be condemned. Let's work to ensure our diverse beliefs are a catalyst for productive dialogue that acknowledges our shared humanity. Faith should not be a means to divide us.
