There is a hunger for a new generation of leadership. I’m working to stand up against the broken status quo and build a new politics grounded in service, integrity and trust. It’s powerful to see this list of other leaders making their change. time.com/collection/t...

Governor @roycoopernc.bsky.social has served the state of North Carolina for decades as a state legislator, attorney general, and governor. He knows this state and cares deeply about making life more affordable for all North Carolinians.

At least someone in this administration is willing to admit the devastating health care losses for Americans caused by Trump and Congressional Republicans.

Tom Kean thinks we're winning a war that's raised your gas prices, depleted our munitions stockpile, and left us no closer to achieving our goals in Iran. NJ-7 deserves better than Tom Kean. They deserve @rebeccabennettforcongress.com.

Tom Kean has no answer for Trump’s tariffs, just more of the same blind support that’s allowed him to raise your costs. NJ-7 deserves a leader like Rebecca Bennett who will vote to end the tariffs and hold Trump accountable.

By a 1 vote margin, Republicans voted to continue the Iran war that had spiked your gas prices to $5 a gallon and caused inflation to soar. Remember this when you vote in November.

A Trump ad paid for by American taxpayers. The White House needs to shut this down and tell the American people how much they spent on it. Trump is wasting your tax dollars on this, his war in Iran, and corruption enriching himself and his friends.

I entered the House with Chris Pappas in 2019 where I saw his hard work to lower healthcare costs and fight corruption. A Trumpy super PAC just dropped $10M in this race, bringing Republican spending to $50M. Please chip in to help Chris win this crucial seat. #GottaFlipEmAll chrispappas.org

This is heartbreaking. Renee Good's mother deserves justice, just like the loved ones of Alex Pretti and all those kidnapped, hurt, and killed by ICE. Think of them when you vote in November. We must work to stop the lawlessness of ICE.

The so called “peace president” threatening annihilation of a country of 100 million people. Trump never misses a chance to humiliate himself in front of the world. His war in Iran is a complete failure, and the American people are paying the price. We need to end it.

I was just in Texas where I met with immigrant communities who are proud to be working, starting businesses, and raising families in this state. They deserve to live here in peace, not in fear of being shot by ICE. We need to show up in November to stop ICE lawlessness.

“Within hours of a Feb. 28 missile attack… Pentagon personnel knew the US was responsible” Mar 7: Trump - “It was done by Iran” June 24: Trump - “I don’t think it was us.” This will go down as one of the most appalling tragedies of the Trump admin. www.bloomberg.com/graphics/202...

There are many stupid things Trump has pushed for but this is pretty close to the top. Having a massive decorative arch in the middle of a public traffic circle that will store weapons, drones and snipers. Might as well have arsenals in the Lincoln Memorial and Washington monument while we’re at it.

Out of all the lies this White House is telling, this is right at the top. Democrats and Republicans were there on Jan 6th. We both saw the violence and devastation caused by Trump’s mob to try and overturn our democracy.

Trump is all about loyalty, and Kean has been very loyal in helping him gut healthcare, raise gas prices, and profit from corruption. So now he's rewarding Kean with $3 million. A vote for Kean is a vote for more high prices and corruption. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/15/u...

Trump is trading more stocks than every member of Congress COMBINED. This corruption is exactly why we need to pass my bill that would ban Congress AND the president from owning stocks. All elected officials need to be held accountable, especially the president.

The fastest growing population across the country are Asian Americans, and 90% of registered AAPI voters plan to vote in the 2026 midterms. That's especially true in Houston, where I spent the weekend talking to Asian American voters about the issues they face. THREAD

First it was a “DOGE dividend”. Then it was a tariff refund. Now it’s $5000 to buy your vote. These are more lies. Under Trump our health care costs and gas prices are skyrocketing.

Completely unacceptable. Trump is doing everything possible to disrupt the midterms and stop Americans from voicing their discontent over corruption, gas prices, and war in Iran. It won't work. Candidates like James Talarico will win and hold this behavior accountable.

If it’s for the country, then let’s pass my legislation that would ban the President, VP, Cabinet, members of Congress, and others for owning stocks. Instead Trump invested in stocks of companies doing business with his Administration. That’s the definition of corruption.
