BIG NEWS: Today we reintroduce the Background Check Expansion Act.
It's not complicated - universal background checks are supported by 95% of Americans and will save thousands of lives.
Please RT this explainer video if you support expanded background checks.
Florida legally sold a gun to my delusional mother. Background checks are necessary!
There are currently 253 bills introduced in 43 states designed to suppress voting. In #BrnovichvDNC, #SCOTUS should affirm there’s no place for racism in our elections. #ProtectOurVote

Replying to @_DURIZLE: JACKSON MISSISSIPPI IS IN THE MIDDLE OF A HUMANITARIAN CRISIS. THE CITY HAS BEEN WITHOUT WATER FOR OVER A WEEK.
For years, Charlotte served with integrity & professionalism as a policy advisor on my team. I have deep respect for her & I am proud of her extraordinary strength & courage. Her story is alarming. Racism, misogyny & harassment have no place anywhere.

Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) debating the voting rights bill:
“First, they outlaw Dr. Seuss and now they want to tell us what to say.”
The Muppets, Dr Seuss, Mr Potatohead. Republicans are laser focused on the issues that matter to working class voters under ten.
For decades, qualified immunity has unfairly blocked victims of police brutality from seeking the justice they deserve.
Thank you @AyannaPressley, @ewarren, and @EdMarkey for leading on this issue.

“When is it a joke to say ‘Do you have sex with older men?’” said Niou, now 38, who became a lawmaker herself in 2017. “I felt like it was very much gaslighting instead of an apology, and I think a lot of women read it that way.” @maryclairedale

This morning, we’re releasing a new report on the events at the Capitol on January 6th. The report, entitled “This is Our House!" A Preliminary Assessment of the Capitol Hill Siege Participants” is available here.
The global scientific consensus is clear: Emissions of greenhouse gases must be cut by nearly half by 2030 to avoid the worst climate catastrophes. New climate targets submitted by countries to the U.N.? An underwhelming 1%. @SominiSengupta
Georgia makes history by electing its first Black senator and first Jewish senator. The Georgia legislature responds by passing new Jim Crow voting laws. That’s what they mean in Georgia when they say “Never again”
Overdraft fees are nothing more than a poverty tax...

lol I aint seen a single Black or Brown person talk about the value of an unpaid internship. And that, in it of itself, is telling.
The accuracy of this tweet
Despicable, discriminatory, anti-democratic proposals are on the move in Republican state legislatures
Make no mistake: They must be opposed by every American who cherishes our democracy
This Senate is working to pass the #ForThePeople Act to renew democracy and our elections
George Floyd trial? George Floyd is dead. He was murdered by Derek Chauvin. This is the Derek Chauvin trial.
JACKSON MISSISSIPPI IS IN THE MIDDLE OF A HUMANITARIAN CRISIS. THE CITY HAS BEEN WITHOUT WATER FOR OVER A WEEK.
For over 10 days now, around half the residents of Jackson, Mississippi have not had running water.
And nobody is talking about it on a national scale.
I am begging the national media to please pay attention. There is a crisis happening in Jackson.
