@riblia-caucus.bsky.social backs seven immigration bills to counter ICE actions. “Right now, federal immigration policy is cruel, reckless, lawless, and chaotic,” state Representative Jenni A. Furtado said. www.bostonglobe.com/2026/03/23/m...

Trump has bombed 7 countries since he got back into office. Wtf are we even doing pretending this is normal?

Feb 27 is National Term Limits Day! 75 years ago, Congress found term limits fit for the presidency. Why shouldn’t we expect the same of our representatives on Capitol Hill? #TermLimitsDay is a reminder that Congress needs turnover, new perspectives and new leaders. @ustermlimits.bsky.social

Headed out with the inimitable Rep. Speakman and @mackdistrict6.bsky.social to do some housing policy on the shiny new @amtrak.com Next Gen! My first time on this fancy train. #PublicTransitIsAPublicGood

This is not the Heated Rivalry hockey I learned to love after binging 6 times…

Pouring one out for Congressman Al Green

It’s okay to say that the shooter was a self-proclaimed white suprematist, MAGA cultist, and violent racist bigot. Why water that part down? Does it no longer fit your previous narrative? Is it not convenient to report on the violent extremism problem within MAGA?

Powerful testimony Mr. Iron Eyes, a leader of an Indigenous community, who still have member of their tribe held by ICE. Indigenous Americans detained by ICE. Abhorrent.

I’m glad that Congresswoman Omar is safe. Our state has been shattered by political violence in the last year. The cruel, inflammatory, dehumanizing rhetoric by our nation’s leaders needs to stop immediately. www.startribune.com/man-tackled-...

@ilhanmn.bsky.social sending you so much love, strength, and rest ❤️ Their hate will not define you. Your fight for justice will free us all.

The RI Gov just kicked off the State of the State Address

How many people does a militarized police force have to murder or injure before it is shut it down?

Hegseth and Rubio are now “controlling” Venezuela. Who else wants to bet Hegseth will personally “oversee” the cocaine farms.

Did you know your state law makers determine your hourly pay?!? State legislators matter and they have a direct impact on your life and your wallet! Happy New Year 🎆

No one could have predicted that months of illegal strikes in the Caribbean that murdered over 115 people, followed by illegal seizure of oil tankers would lead to the illegal military action 3 days into 2026 that captured another country’s leader. Oh wait…

Neighbors, our community has suffered a terrible tragedy. My heart breaks for the students who lost their lives to senseless gun violence and their families - and all in our community affected.

My heart breaks for every student and community across our nation. A fresh pain, an old wound. Yes, here. Yes, our community. Yes, Brown. Yes, this tragic, preventable horror happened again. We can prevent gun violence. We chose not to.

Please follow official updates and only share confirmed updates. This keeps us all safer. www.brown.edu

Brown is not just my alma mater. It’s half a mile from my home. It’s part of my district. I can hear the sirens. My heart breaks. Unimaginable, heartbreaking. Preventable.

Sending so much love to my Brown community.

In a shock to absolutely no one, the spineless dem’s “plan” to reopen the government and force an ACA vote didn’t work and healthcare subsidies are gone. Healthy people will take the tax penalty. Sick people will go broke or die. Those are the options in 2026.

Merger announcements like this one really make me miss Lina Khan.

The fact that Netflix could afford to buy warner brothers means they could've afforded to let us share passwords.

I joined 100+ state legislators from CT, ME, MA, NH, NY, RI & VT urging Congress to stop federal actions hurting our region’s farms & food systems. The Northeast stands united for farmers & local food! 🌾 #NortheastStrong #SupportLocalFarms @sixaction.bsky.social stateinnovation.org/wp-content/u...

The House just voted to “denounce the horrors of socialism” while people can’t afford rent, groceries, or a doctor’s visit. Gabe Amo and Seth Magaziner voted with Republicans. You don’t get to campaign on helping working people then go to DC and condemn the ideas that make our lives affordable.

ICE agents stalked a high school intern, took his photo, then surrounded a RI judge’s car and threatened to smash the windows to pull him out. They had misidentified him — and they did not care.

Let me get this straight. Republicans want democrats to accept abortion restrictions that will endanger millions of Americans in exchange for health care subsides for millions of Americans.

My grandfather had a favorite saying I like to bring up at times like this. “Don’t piss down my back and tell me that it’s raining”. No healthcare, no deal. Hold the line.

If senate dems cave now, this shutdown would have been for nothing. Billionaires still get tax cuts. Millions lose healthcare. Hold the line.

Now not the time for dems to fold. We had huge W’s less than a week ago now some dems are going to vote to end ACA tax credits. Have we learned nothing?

If these billionaires cared about people over profits, they wouldn’t pay ANY of their employees so low that they qualify for public benefits.

Republicans have decided that forcing states to scramble to feed people by Nov 1 is a better option than sitting down with Democrats and negotiating to get the government out of this shutdown. Why? Because they desperately want to line the pockets of their billionaire buddies.

It would cost RI roughly $1 Million a day to fund SNAP without the federal government…

SNAP benefits will not go out Nov. 1 because the President is only willing to illegally fund ICE and not food for 40 Million Americans.

The President’s authorities under Article II are limited to responding to an armed attack/the threat of one and do not apply here. These continued strikes — 27 killed to date — risk getting the U.S. into a full fledged war.

We have now struck 5 boats in the Caribbean illegally for allegedly smuggling drugs. At this point congress is condoning this behavior.
