With AI, we're in the middle of the greatest technological transformation of our lifetimes. My new plan: a tax on AI companies that funds new jobs — so the unemployment rate does not rise. Progress should benefit everyone, not just a few billionaires.

From Bezos to Iger, the ultra-wealthy men who run America's biggest media companies are auctioning off our 1st Amendment to a wannabe tyrant.

Trump made $5 billion on corrupt crypto schemes while kicking 17 million Americans off their health care. Corruption.

It’s been 15 years since Congress raised the minimum wage. In that time, costs for rent, groceries, and utilities have soared. Americans deserve a raise.

My constituent Any Lopez Belloza was wrongfully deported in shackles to Honduras without proper due process. Now, the Trump Administration is sending ICE agents to threaten her family for speaking out.
Wannabe-dictators who want to rip off working people aren’t just a problem in the United States. This week, I met with heads of state from across Latin America visiting the United Nations to talk about standing up for democracy and working people across the region.
Kristi Noem started the new year by firing even more FEMA employees. Noem is dismantling our country’s ability to respond to disasters. Texans have already been hurt, and her recklessness will cost more lives. I joined Representative Neguse demanding she reverse these cuts.
Here’s what the Democratic Party is fighting for in this shutdown: a country where you can afford to live, afford health care, and don't get your money taken away by a billionaire.
We just learned Kristi Noem’s “fiscal responsibility policies” are holding up $17 billion in approved disaster funds. She’s preventing roads from being repaired and bridges from being fixed. All while spending hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars on ad campaigns to promote herself.
Kristi Noem deserves to be impeached for the things you know about: mass deportation policies that have gotten Americans killed. But folks aren't talking enough about what she's not doing: keeping us safe. She's gutting disaster relief agencies and putting us all at risk.
Organizing works. People showed up, made calls, drew attention to injustice , and now a judge ordered the Trump Administration to bring Any Lopez Belloza home. Now, we make sure she gets back to Texas safely. Keep organizing. Keep pushing.
We’re at the People’s State of the Union to tell the truth about what Trump is doing to working people.
House Republicans have taken a page out of Cancun Ted Cruz's playbook. They're not showing up for work because they don't want to answer questions about taking away your health care.
After cutting and cutting and cutting programs for working families, Trump wants $200 billion for his war with Iran. Today the Progressive Caucus is taking an official position against supplemental funding for the Iran war.
The United States Government needs to stop supporting these thugs immediately! www.instagram.com/reel/DYaSj4p...

The conflict across the Middle East is having a devastating impact on civilians, and pushing other crises further from view. My interview with BBC’s Laura Kuenssberg on why this is a moment for cooler heads.

First it was: we support it. Then: we’re not participating. Now: we’re just defending. Australia’s sending military aircraft, personnel and missiles into the Gulf. That’s not staying out of war. That’s how @AlboMP sells war to the Aussie public - one euphemism at a time.

Warning. Extremely bloody and distressing. Please look. Everyone. Look. You remember man from Resnik that was abducted? This is him. There is no need for translation. His face alone is enough to tell you everything. Sickos did that to him.

The violent scenes that played out in central Sydney last night were deeply troubling, and entirely foreseeable. We are Australians, first and foremost. Inviting a foreign head of state to Australia when the consequences for social cohesion are so obvious shows a serious failure of judgment.

Why 2020s just keep make me suffer too much with all these terrible changes and dramas and make me do all these awful things on social media, WHY JUST ME!!!!
Once in power, Putin cut taxes for elites, consolidated media (directly or via loyalists) & sought to manipulate the electoral process. Sound familiar? Some parallels are hard to ignore. The difference? The US has strong checks, an active civil society & deep democratic traditions—that gives me hope
