Last year, made history when we passed the single biggest investment in climate action into law with the Inflation Reduction Act.
Today, Republicans want to undo this progress with a #BigOilGiveaway of more of our public lands. I’m voting NO!

10 killed, 10 injured & countless traumatized. We condemn the gruesome attack, only the latest act of gun violence which continues to terrorize our nation. We cannot continue to allow these heart-breaking, preventable tragedies to rip our communities apart.

People- NOT POLITICIANS- should make their own health care decisions. Yet, House Republicans are threatening our basic freedoms with new legislation that attacks women’s reproductive freedom, including contraception and abortion care. It’s cruel, dangerous, and wrong!

Two years ago, a deadly assault was waged on the U.S. Capitol, the Congress, and the Constitution. The insurrection was an attack on Democracy itself and the peaceful transfer of power. We must never forget #January6th.
