    The Women’s US Nat'l Team plays & wins more games, has better TV ratings than the Men’s Team. The women have won 3 World Cup titles, the men have never won the Cup. Yet the women make LESS $! Here’s to “running like a girl” to another year of victories on the field & in court!

    The President feels very badly for Manafort, a man who convicted of tax fraud, hiding foreign bank accounts & defrauding banks. I guess doesn’t think someone who engages in tax evasion, and who owes the government and taxpayers $24 million, should go to jail....hmmm

    .'s commission released 56 recs on dealing w/deadly opioids 16 months ago – Trump’s National Drug Policy office does nothing with them! I got Drug Czar to commit to releasing docs showing policy/strategy deficiencies.

    It's & time for the US to catch up with the other 192 countries worldwide that have equality provisions in their constitutions. Let’s make constitutional equality a reality for American women & girls. We're only need 1 state & my bill, H.J.Res. 38, to achieve !

    Manafort’s sentencing is a gross injustice. Ignoring sentencing parameters and claiming Manafort “led a life otherwise blameless” suggests Judge Ellis is patently ignorant of the basic facts of the case. And angling for a presidential judicial appointment.

    My bill H.R.1574, the Closing the Law Enforcement Loophole Act, is in ! It's just common sense that those under color of law are legally incapable of consenting to sexual acts w/law enforcement officers who hold enormous power. We can’t tolerate predators in any profession!

    Way to go on introducing the ERA in the NC legislature. It's long past time for women & men to be equal under the Constitution, so let's make NC the 38th state to ratify !

    What passes as “strategy” for this WH would be “obstruction” in any other context. The WH must respond promptly to document requests and subpoenas to enable Congress to oversee this corrupt, incompetent administration.

    The weakness of these state laws is yet another reason we need comprehensive federal legislation to protect intimate privacy. Here's hoping Congress votes soon on the bipartisan bill worked on with & to do that.

    - I convened a hearing yesterday to honor the service of transgender individuals in our armed forces, marking the first time that openly transgender servicemembers have testified before Congress.

    As I said in my opening remarks in MILPERS - 14,700 transgender individuals serve ably, are exceptional, but also exceptionally normal. They serve the Constitution, our nation & the Commander in Chief, yet ⁦⁩ treats them like liabilities & trivializes their sacrifice.
