This is the way.

BREAKING: A DC pollster just texted me “it’s over” after Donald Trump’s speech today where he called “affordability” a “line of bullshit.” There is not one Republican lawmaker who is up in 2028 that didn’t just shit their pants. He just gave Democrats the perfect ad.

The die is cast. To secure American democratic life, we must resist and overcome not only the initiatives of the greedy, corrupt, bigoted and narcissistic bully who currently occupies the White House, but also the anti-democratic ambitions and schemes of corporate capital and the right. If our parents and grandparents’ lives tell us anything, it is that it’s not just a matter of rejecting authoritarianism but of acting in solidarity to radically enhance freedom, equality and democracy.

Hey, @Lawrence Don't forget that most of the companies that paid the tariffs passed those costs onto their consumers. They are keeping the extra money consumers gave them & getting a refund on the tariffs too. Average American consumers are left holding the bag again

Civil rights leader Dolores Huerta is calling on California to end the payday loan debt trap ahead of tomorrow’s key committee hearing on AB 2558, a bill ESCAA proudly co-sponsors. Here’s how the payday debt trap works: borrowers in a pinch take out a loan that they must repay in full by their next paycheck. But when families already stretched by rent and groceries can’t repay, they’re forced to borrow again. Nearly half take out another loan within a week. That’s a debt cycle by design — and it drains $246 million from California families every year. AB 2558 would cap payday loan interest rates at 36%, ending the 300%+ interest rates on small loans California currently allows. The same protection military families already have. Every California family deserves dignity, not debt. Watch Dolores Huerta make the case:

Forget #MAGA…Forget #MAHA We need progressive action…

As my friends in the labor movement said: We're not going to stop until AI works for us, not the billionaires. Listen to what we had to say about AI oligarchs trying to replace workers with robots.

The rich are getting richer while working people are struggling to feed their families. AI and robotics will make a bad situation even worse. We need a new boldness in organizing workers. With union solidarity we can have AI benefit all, not just a handful of billionaires.

Graham Platner: I sat down with Harvey Kaye to discuss my Defend Democracy Agenda. We spoke about how Congress can ensure equal rights in the 21st century, find strength in our country's traditions, and restore Congressional power.
