We were homeless and you opened your doors. Your empathy gave my family the chance to keep going. Now, I am running for Congress to pay it forward and fight for your family the way you fought for mine. We will stand up to billionaires, corporate PACs, AIPAC, and ICE. Join us.

Two of these people are elected officials responsible for our daily public safety. One of them is a career politician with no job.

Great to be with @GovernorVA to celebrate legislation capping insulin prices on plans offered through Virginia's Insurance Marketplace and limiting prior authorizations. Affordability in healthcare is our goal, and each of these bills brings Virginia a few steps closer.

Trump didn’t build wealth by creating anything. He built it by grifting and now he’s trying to grift the American people. Republicans in Congress will continue to look the other way. Another reason we have to organize & fight back.

A sitting member of Congress agreeing with this type of language is blatantly racist and nobody should pretend otherwise.

"Get your cotton-picking hands off of Virginia." "Yes to that." WOW. Jen Kiggans agrees with the host after he says Hakeem Jeffries has "cotton-picking" hands. #VA02

Trump: ❌Mifepristone by mail ❌Vote by mail ✅ Handguns by Mail

Headquarters@HQNewsNow

The Trump administration just proposed a new rule allowing handguns to be mailed through the US Postal Service. This would reverse a ban on mailing guns dating back to 1927.

Indian American Impact@IA_Impact·7 May

We’re thrilled to endorse @salimforva for Congress in VA-07! As a first-generation immigrant who experienced homelessness and financial hardship firsthand, Saddam has spent his career fighting for immigrant communities, lowering costs, and delivering real results for Virginians.

Republican playbook 101: They don’t care if people are in danger. They don’t care if voters are silenced. They don’t care about America. They only care that their grip on power survives – even if democracy doesn’t.

Chaos in Alabama: Republican State Senators rammed through a bill to advance redistricting while tornado sirens blared, the chamber was being evacuated, and the livestream went dark. When this is how they pass it – that tells you everything you need to know.

Endless wars have cost us trillions of dollars and countless lives. Meanwhile, our schools, hospitals, and communities are starved of resources. We need to end forever wars and invest at home.

No one should open a medical bill and have to choose between treatment and rent. If your profit model depends on people getting sick and going broke, it doesn’t belong in healthcare. #MedicareForAll

Many Americans are already living paycheck to paycheck. Trump’s war with Iran is one more crisis they did not ask for and cannot afford.
