    Today I visited a facility in Brownsville, TX, where over 1,200 migrant children are being housed. What I saw reveals the incompetence of this administration and the cruelty of its policy. I came here to find answers, but I’m leaving with more questions. Here’s what I saw:

    We must be relentless in our fight to put a stop to this administration’s inhumanity, to see that the kids separated from their families are reunited. Keep raising your voices, keep donating, and keep fighting as hard as you can for what’s right.

    We must fight to protect those whose voices are too often ignored and silenced. We must elevate those voices by raising our own. We must demand to be heard, and we must never back down in the fight for a better, fairer and more just world.

    With four months until Election Day and women’s rights on the line, President Trump can’t be allowed to make a SCOTUS appointment without the American people having a say at the ballot box. We must keep speaking out.

    We can’t lose Claire’s voice with this much on the line. We need her by our side, and that’s why I’m asking you to donate right now to help make sure that she can stay there. Will you give just $5 to help Claire win in Missouri and take back the Senate?

    President Trump has already been to Missouri three times to campaign for her anti-women opponent, and special interests have poured almost $10 million into attacks against her. Claire can’t fight these attacks and a flood of dark money alone. She’s counting on our support.

    The stakes for winning back a Democratic Senate majority have never been higher. With a Supreme Court seat on the line and our values under attack, we need to reelect !

    We’re in the midst of a humanitarian crisis on American soil. Now there are reports the Trump administration has asked a federal judge to extend its deadline for reuniting families. We have to keep fighting to shine a light on this injustice.

    Immigration is a strength of America. Our country needs a new agency that works, and it needs bipartisan immigration reform. That includes border security, a humane asylum process, and a pathway to citizenship for the millions of undocumented immigrants who are already here.

    Their immoral zero tolerance policy has made us less safe, drained federal resources from violent criminals, and stained our country’s soul.

    No, , the separation of families at the border and throughout the country is cruel, and it must end. We’ll keep speaking out as loud as we can until these families are reunited.

    Hey, : While you obsess over my genes, your Admin is conducting DNA tests on little kids because you ripped them from their mamas & you are too incompetent to reunite them in time to meet a court order. Maybe you should focus on fixing the lives you're destroying.

    As we fight to make sure you have a say on the next justice, we need to raise our voices to restore fairness to our campaign finance system. We have to overturn Citizens United.

    Scott Pruitt should never have set foot inside the EPA in the first place. He violated public trust. Even worse, he implemented a disastrous environmental policy designed to benefit industry insiders, one that will have terrible consequences for our children and grandchildren.

    President Trump tweets he has accepted resignation of scandal-plagued EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt.

    You can bet that anyone on ’s list of potential SCOTUS nominees would overturn Roe v. Wade. Our hard-fought rights could evaporate in a moment. That’s a massive step backward for women’s equality that I will not stand for. Not in 2018. Not ever.

    Today, I’m reflecting on what patriotism is: the advocacy and determination of ordinary people striving to make our country better. I’m so proud to stand with each of you as we pursue a more just and unified society together. A very happy Fourth of July to you and your family!

    This is wrong. This is discriminatory. This is a direct attack on our country’s efforts to pursue fairness and equality. Diverse voices and backgrounds only add value to our education system. We must stand up and speak out to ensure every student has equal opportunities.

    Yet another reason why this country needs postal banking. The U.S. Postal Service has 30,000 locations across the country that could give every American a not-for-profit alternative when they need a small dollar loan, or basic banking services.
