    Whether through the courts or through Congress, the VA will be forced to do what they have refused to do for 16 years – take care of our Navy vets who were exposed to Agent Orange in their water while serving offshore in Vietnam. We will not stop fighting.

    A year ago, Republicans gave $1.5 trillion in tax cuts to corporations and the wealthiest few. Why not invest in our values: healthcare as a right, not a privilege; better schools; and job training for higher-paying jobs?

    It doesn’t have to be this way. This administration’s constant chaos and dysfunction is embarrassing and, more importantly, harmful to the country. decided to force a shutdown, and the GOP went along with it, even though a bipartisan solution was at hand.

    This government shutdown is 100% avoidable. is choosing funding for his ineffective and wasteful border wall over what’s best for our country. We should be tackling the real problems families face by investing in our schools and better job training instead.

    The diversity of our country has always been a strength. I am hopeful for a future in which all of the strength of that diversity is reflected in our elected leaders.

    The latest attack on the ACA means 17 million Americans’ access to healthcare is at risk. I believe health care is a right and not a privilege. We must protect the ACA and fight for Medicare for All.

    The First Step Act is just that: A first step toward comprehensive criminal justice reform. I'm calling on Congress to take it a step further by addressing one of the most fundamentally unfair problems in our criminal justice system — our deeply discriminatory cash-bail system.

    . feels the historic criminal justice reform bill headed for a vote in the Senate this week is a step in the right direction — but doesn’t go far enough.

    In moments of great darkness and division, we need to come together to fight for what is good and right in the world. To restore unity. To fight for fairness and justice. To remind one another that we have always believed in the golden rule.

    In Mick Mulvaney, has promoted to acting chief of staff someone who has told donors to give money to influence policy. The corruption goes right to the top.

    At a meeting with banking executives, Mulvaney urged them to donate to members of Congress and tell them to weaken the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau – the bureau Mulvaney is responsible for leading.

    Taxpayers should never be left on the hook for politicians' sexual harassment scandals. This week, Congress came together to pass an important reform to make sure it never happens again. But we still have work left to do to reform our broken system and increase transparency.

    This ruling threatens access to health care for 17 million Americans. Republicans won’t stop trying to deny coverage for pre-existing conditions, or charging people more based on their age, gender or profession. We won’t stop until health care is a right and not a privilege.

    This vote was a crucial step, but it faces a huge hurdle in the House and a president whose ties to a foreign government are under investigation. We have to keep fighting for more transparency in our election system.
