Let’s talk a little about Gen Z and the financial burdens they’re facing, starting with housing. The cost of owning a home has shot way up while salaries haven’t kept pace. We need to offer real solutions to this problem - the time for sweeping it under the rug is over.

BIG NEWS: the House just voted to end the war in Iran!
185 14
Trump is being way too cavalier about the war he started in Iran. He missed negotiations for a UFC fight, ignored the advice of experts, and has put our service members in harms way. We need to call it all out and hold this admin accountable for this mess.
It was a loooong night - but ultimately we were able to show some real strength by preventing a clean FISA reauthorization that fails to protect Americans’ privacy. They were only able to get a very short extension that runs until the end of April. We still have a chance to get this right.
With the money Trump wants for his war of choice in Iran, we could fund the ACA tax credits FOR TEN YEARS. Vermonters and folks across the nation are suffering from this admin’s backwards priorities.
Rather than working to solve real problems like affordability or the war in Iran, Republicans are once again going back to the same old playbook of harassing trans kids. They want to give the admin power to slash funding for public schools that THEY decide are advancing ‘gender ideology.’
Ghislane Maxwell lured countless children into Jeffrey Epstein’s global pedophile ring. Now, some Republicans are openly floating giving her a pardon. It’s outrageous. We need to end the special treatment for the Epstein class.
Just like with everything else, the Trump administration is grifting off the American people through their war in Iran. Democrats in Congress will continue to demand answers and get these people on the record.
This week, the chair of the education committee sent a totally backwards and condescending letter to a 10 year old constituent of hers. We should be encouraging our kids to be interested in government, and our kids should be able to expect more from their elected leaders.
Right now, we’re watching a systematic attack on the political power of Black voters across the South. It threatens to bring us back to a deeply shameful part of our past. Today, I’m standing in solidarity with the National Day of Action and in support of fair representation for every American.
American workers are tired of being left behind while corporations dominate our trade policy and CEOs make record profits. I was proud to stand with @delauro.house.gov and our colleagues today as we introduced the Fair Trade for Working Families Resolution.
In Vermont, we know that bad trade policy has real consequences for working people. For too long, corporate-written trade deals have squeezed us and now Trump’s reckless tariff regime has hurt us economically and reputationally.
Wishing all the mothers on this day of celebration and appreciation, a very special Mother's Day. Your love and commitment to family are truly a gift to us all. #MothersDay2026

It's universally accepted Libya was a disaster, and that the best thing would have been the status quo. This ignores the path not taken, had the Obama admin not back to the coup in Egypt. A strong democratic Egypt would have had a stabilizing effect on neighbours like Libya (and Palestine).
Why do people do this? I mean I’m not buying they don’t know it’s rude as well as illegal. Stop parking in handicapped parking or the additional space to get wheelchairs or walkers out. #pinks #accessibility #disabilities #ADA #DoNotBeAnA$$hole
#greenscreenvideo #greenscreen asking what reparations Jewish people got pretending like they actually did it is actually bad shit crazy. Now to be clear it was not nearly enough and was not equitably distributed amongst the community- but to incredulously ask about something that did happen is

The rise of Jordan Peterson & similar influencers among men doesn't stem from their advice & guidance. Those are pretty basic. It's the demand that signifies the crisis men are facing, and society's failings. I talk with Richard Reeves of @aibm.bsky.social podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/h...
