Today, we celebrate World Autism Awareness Day. Since my time in the New York State Senate, I’ve been a strong advocate for initiatives to strengthen protections and support for people with autism spectrum disorders and their families. In Congress, I will never stop fighting for the care, support, and resources that Americans with autism deserve.

☀️AM: REPUBLICANS DHS MESS Let’s be abundantly clear — this record-breaking, 44-day DHS funding impasse has turned into a political disaster for Republicans. At one point, Republicans seemed to be breaking through with their message that Democrats instigated the DHS fight over undocumented immigrants. But now, House and Senate Republicans are publicly warring with each other over who’s at fault for last week’s debacle. The GOP-run Congress has left town until mid-April, while President Donald Trump was forced to issue an executive order to pay TSA employees. ... This episode illustrates how adrift the GOP-run Congress is when Trump remains on the sidelines. Trump was completely silent about the Senate’s proposal, although his staff was telling lawmakers he approved. When it became clear that the House would reject it, Trump sided with them. ... But now the House Republican Conference has ownership of the impasse. Johnson’s rejection of Thune’s approach ensures that the next two weeks will be all about how GOP infighting is prolonging the shutdown. punchbowl.news/archive/33026-…

Watching Fox News assure viewers the Iran war is going SUPER well and Trump is a total stud is like watching the same network assure viewers that Dominion Voting Systems rigged the 2020 election and Trump was the winner.

The cost of your flight went up because you searched for it twice. Your rideshare costs more because your phone battery is dying. This is surveillance pricing – corporations using your own data and behaviors against you. In the US Senate, I’ve got a plan to ban it.

It's hard to overstate how bad this poll is for Congressional Republicans. The only reason House Republicans won't stand up to trump is because of gerrymandering. That is the real danger of gerrymandering. (that being said, Dems are doing the right thing, fighting fire w/ fire)
