Folks are frustrated with Dems in Congress right now. Here’s my solution - get the hell out of DC and hold some hearings. I love town halls, but we need to focus on people right now. Have folks come testify about how these cuts are affecting them. Get local media there. Make it real.

I love it when I get the chance to meet a hero in person. For those who don’t follow Susan Perri you should. She has had such health challenges over the last few years but she perseveres, she advocates and she inspires. It was awesome to finally meet her. @perri4health.bsky.social

Louise and I always enjoy seeing old friends at Terri Sewell’s annual Ultimate Ladies Power luncheon, but this one was extra special with both @repsewell and special guest @repnikema coming out with strong endorsements….
It’s the first day of the legislative session in Alabama and the Governor is giving her “State of the State” address tonight. But we’re hearing that the Republican leaders in Montgomery will not bring up the one thing that Alabamians want: allowing folks to vote on a lottery!
With the help of the Supreme Court continuing to show their partisan colors, Alabama has officially re-joined the Old Confederacy. But make no mistake, we intend to build a better Alabama where everyone has a seat at the table.
With all of the chaos in the news this week you may have missed the passing of Claudette Colvin, a true civil rights icon. It was Claudette who, at age 15, first refused to give up her seat on a Montgomery bus in 1955, prompting further action by MLK and Rosa Parks. RIP my friend

I used to think I had to follow the "standard" path, but sometimes not getting what you want forces you to look elsewhere, to find the vibrant, chaotic, and beautiful patterns you didn’t know you were missing. This controller isn't just gear; it's a reminder that life is better in color.

Before the Industrial Revolution reshaped our schedules and environments, human sleep looked radically different than the continuous 8-hour block we strive for today. The most fascinating discovery by historians—most notably Roger Ekirch—is that for centuries, humanity naturally

This country didn't forget soccer after the 1994 World Cup, MLS started in 1996 and we've qualified for every World Cup save 2018 since. The 1950-1990 drought was when it was deliberately ignored. Young people don't remember the open derision it was treated with.

The president’s approval among young people looks like it’s cratering. This was a key part of his coalition in 2024, so it’s a big deal. But we can’t take anything for granted. We need to offer solutions so young people know they have a brighter future ahead of them.
President #Trump's campaign promise of better, cheaper healthcare insurance of course meant the opposite: He slashed healthcare funding and kicked millions of Americans off #Medicaid to pay for tax cuts for the wealthiest.

In 2008, millions lost their homes and jobs while we bailed out wall street. If taxpayers are going to save a company, it should belong to the people who create its value, not the execs who drove it into the ground. #MattDodsonforUSSenate #TooPissedOffToBeBoughtOff #WorkersOverBillionaires #VoteNM
