I saw the report that RFK Jr. looked into banning SSRIs. Perhaps if he had any medical expertise, he’d know that these medications are lifesaving for so many Americans. Yet again, this is the Trump administration trying to insert itself between patients and their doctors. I’m not having any of it.

BIG NEWS: the House just voted to end the war in Iran!
185 14
Today I’ll be introducing a war powers resolution to give Congress another chance to end this reckless war of choice in Iran.
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.
We must do all we can to keep this admin from continuing their horrific treatment of women, children, and families with our tax dollars. They want us to lose our humanity — to believe that some are more worthy of basic dignity than others. We can't let that happen.
Russ Vought has unlawfully and vindictively cut federal funds from states that didn’t vote for Trump in the last presidential election. I’m not angry because he’s taking Congress’s power away - it’s because he’s taking power away from the American people.
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.
As of today, the Trump admin is FIVE MONTHS past its legally binding deadline to release the full Epstein files. I’ll never stop fighting until these files are released, everyone involved is held accountable, and we get justice for the survivors – no matter how long it takes.
Republicans in Congress are going to new lengths to cover up the disgusting crimes of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislane Maxwell. As I’ve said, we can’t have one system of justice for the powerful and another for the rest of us.
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.
I’m honestly tired of some of my colleagues’ “elevator courage.” There are public servants across the country who are being threatened and harassed, but they’re still doing the right thing for their communities. It’s that bravery that’ll get us through this moment.
This administration uses fear as a strategy because they want us to give up hope. To kill our creativity. But we won’t give in. At my town hall in Rutland this week, I talked about how deeply I believe in the spirit of Americans to get us back on track.
