    Standing with so many students, parents and their allies, we called for action now on gun safety legislation. The eloquent passion of Olivia Hoffman, Bayley Stewart and the other organizers and speakers today, is an inspiration to us all.

  3. GOP is again attempting to cut access to food for those most in need as part of the Ag Bill. I have spoken out several times against these cruel cuts, including on the House floor.

  4. This GOP-led Congress, owned lock, stock, & barrel by the NRA, is pushing NRA priority to encroach on state reg of concealed carry. 400+ law enf officials oppose this dangerous bill, which passed in the House in Dec. GOP must prioritize public safety over campaign coffers.

    It’s time to send a clear message on the that . An undercount will hurt people in red states too—reducing federal funding for services they rely on every single day.

  6. Trump has simply been all talk and no meaningful action to achieve the “beautiful” lower prescription drug prices he has promised.

  7. From the massive lobbying and campaign expenditure efforts reflected in today’s NYT report, you can see the powerful forces protecting their government-approved monopolies in order to extort monopoly prices from the sick and dying.

    We must restrain Iran & maintain intrusive inspections. This agreement is working; IAEA again certified Iran is in full compliance. If Trump withdraws, he will be ignoring sound advice from our military & allies—risking national security.

    If we had not already believed Iran was once pursuing a nuclear weapons program, we wouldn't have sought this nuclear agreement. If we had trusted Iran, we wouldn't have created such strict verification rules. Nothing in PM Netanyahu’s belated, alarmist public disclosures is new.

    “Military City, USA” is more than a slogan for us – it is a demonstration of our commitment & responsibility to those who have served. This SAC Victory Center will help lead our country’s bravest in the right direction.

    Patty’s Taco House is one of my favorite spots when I’m in a Tex-Mex mood. Small businesses like Patty’s bring the community together, and is an example of how really does shine in San Antonio.

    Great Centro Cinco de Mayo Celebration in San Marcos. While we missed Centro founder Ofelia Vasquez-Philo, a true treasure, we celebrate culture, history & how together we can build a more just country, overcoming the flow of ignorance & prejudice from the WH. Viva !

    Trump Administration may be breaking federal law to block immigration judges who do not seem to share Trump’s anti-immigrant hysteria. More whistleblowers may come forward in the coming days, as I call for a thorough investigation

    Even the Editorial Board, with which I so seldom agree, has concluded that the Trump gang that can’t lie straight has a credibility problem that is endangering our country-- "Mr. Trump should worry that Americans will stop believing anything he says.”

    There’s nothing “small” about . Let’s not forget that small businesses have created 40% of America’s new jobs in the last 20 years! Places like Black’s BBQ & Juan in a Million make our community great.
