    I'm a disabled combat vet. I don't want thanks for my service or praise as a hero. I want our greedy politicians to get out of bed w/ the military industrial complex & to stop wasting our son's/daughter's blood & our tax on interventionism that ALWAYS fails.

    Despite pressure from progressive Democrats, the House rules package for the 116th Congress will include a pay-as-you-go provision, requiring all new spending to be offset with either budget cuts or tax increases.

  6. In the first vote of the 116th Congress, Rep. was one of just three Democrats who split with their party and voted against a rules package introduced by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and backed by the leadership of the Congressional Progressive Caucus.

    Message to House Dems: Do NOT vote for “PayGo” in the rules package. It’s a brainless Republican idea that tax cuts or mandatory spending increases must be offset by tax increases or mandatory spending cuts. Totally disables fiscal policy.

    Speaker Pelosi's reasons for shoving the conservative rule into the new House is to please donors &, more importantly, shut down progressive legislation from reaching the floor. Discussing Medicare-for-All would help progressive 2020 candidates & harm centrist candidates.

    Nancy Pelosi wants new anti-deficit rules in the House. Her goal: averting the threat of progressive legislation.

  17. You’re the dude whose immediate reaction to winning my primary was posting a photo of my mom’s house. Going to public school in Yorktown has *always* been how I told the story of income inequality. You didn’t even know who I was 7 months ago. You’re not gonna “birther” me now.

    Millions are familiar w/the Wizard of Oz. Remember when the curtain got drawn back to expose the manipulation? That's what Progressives are doing. By reviewing a candidate's record/platform we're determining if they'll be voting on behalf of the 1% or 99%. Nothing wrong w/that.

  21. Here's an idea for a new tradition: Don't be complicit in stealing children from their parents, deporting their parents while losing track of who belongs to whom so they'll likely never be reunited, letting them die in detention. Also please FY.
