Trump and Musk are targeting our Social Security – gutting phone services and undermining every American’s ability to access their earned benefits.

Congress must NOT allow any attacks on Social Security to go unaddressed.

Our members of Congress must step up and protect our safety net from Trump and Musk’s hostile takeover.

Trump Dismisses Director of Office of Government Ethics.

Happy Thursday. We know there was a federal holiday this week, but what a week.

Congress must protect our Postal Service from Trump’s reported plot to take it over.

Millions of Americans rely on the Postal Service for receiving medications, sending letters to family, or casting mail-in ballots.

The Postal Service is a public good guaranteed by our Constitution, which gives Congress – NOT the President – authority over the USPS. Our members of Congress must step up and protect this crucial service from Trump’s hostile takeover.

Right now, we’re facing a renewed wave of anti-voter efforts from President Trump, his friends in Congress, and states lawmakers across the country. But let’s not dwell on these attacks – let’s fight for the solution: the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act. This recently reintroduced legislation would help protect voters nationwide from discrimination and voting restrictions by restoring and strengthening protections from the Voting Rights Act, which the Supreme Court gutted in 2013....

President Trump’s Attorney General Pam Bondi removed the leadership team of the Voting Section of the Department of Justice’s Civil Rights Division and ordered the dismissal of all the section’s active cases. The Voting Section enforces the federal laws protecting the right to vote, including the Voting Rights Act, the Uniformed and Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act, the National Voter Registration Act, the Help America Vote Act and the Civil Rights Acts.

Trump had his 100 days. Now it’s our turn.

President Trump and his allies have spent the past 100 days attacking our rights, undermining our democracy, and enriching the ultra-wealthy, while driving up the cost of living for working-class Americans. It’s a deliberate strategy to distract and divide us while they seize power and wealth.

We see through their games. It’s time to join together and demand something different — not just by resisting their agenda, but by offering our own that guarantees justice, equality,...

Our government spends about the same on parking lots as it does elections. [1] You read that right. Our elections rank near the bottom in public spending, starving our democracy at the expense of voters like us. Right now, Congress can fix this and provide the funds that state and local officials – Democrats and Republicans alike – agree are urgently needed. They just need to act. Election funding has long enjoyed bipartisan – but...

Members of congress must use their authority to block Trump from accepting the $400 million luxury plane Qatar is gifting to him.

The Constitution’s Emoluments Clause forbids presidents from accepting these sorts of “gifts” for obvious reasons. Congress has the tools to block this bribe, from amending must-pass defense bills to halting nominees.

Congress must REJECT this shady plane deal and hold this administration accountable to working for We The People – not the highest bidder.

Congress must REJECT efforts to cut funding for PBS and NPR – which Americans consistently rank as the most trustworthy networks for news and public affairs.

Attacks on public media are attempts to silence independent media. We must protect free, fact-based journalism and ensure access to trusted programming for all Americans.
