Today we’re mourning the loss of our dear colleague Rep. David Scott. In his more than two decades in Congress, David was a fighter for farmers across the country and the people of Georgia's 13th Congressional District. May his memory be a blessing to our country.

You may have heard Republicans are pursuing something called a “reconciliation” bill. Things can get a bit wonky, so let's simplify it. Here's what Republicans want: ✅Billions upon billions more $ for ICE and CBP ❌Funding to help you afford health care, food, and housing

They paused Oversight Committee hearings the minute we started getting answers about the Epstein files. Now it’s “roundtables”: no rules, no oaths, no subpoenas. You do the math. Because the moment accountability shows up, they shut it down. The survivors deserve better.

Ossoff: "When you throw people off their health insurance and drive up their premiums and gut the Medicaid program in order to cut taxes for the wealthiest people in the country, that's also corruption. That's the corruption that's endemic in our political system and predates Trump."

I don't think I'll ever get over Clarence Thomas ruling on cases related to Jan 6 knowing that his wife was an active participant in the attempted coup. Or ruling on cases related to government regulations and a wealth tax knowing he took gifts from billionaires. It's a disgrace.

About 70% of the U.S. economy runs on consumer spending. But as wealth concentrates at the top, the richest 10% can’t spend enough to sustain it — while everyone else can’t afford to. Reminder that trickle-down economics simply doesn’t make sense. It’s a hoax.
