The same people who think buying junk food with SNAP benefits is “abusing the system” are fine with wealthy parents using vouchers to send their kids to private schools.

I would once again like to apologize to the fine people of Canada for how incredibly idiotic and offensive and absurd my country's “leadership” (so called) is behaving. We look like unmitigated dolts, and believe me, living under this administration is every bit as awful as you might imagine.

Here's a gift link to the New York Times' coverage of the initial Tea Party rallies in April 2009 which inspired the media to treat it like a massive movement. Check out how tiny the crowds were: Philly: 200 DC: "several hundred" Boston: 500 Austin: 1,000 Houston: 2,000

Republican leaders need to stop hiding from their constituents, from the health care crisis they’re causing, and from the negotiating table. The clock is not just ticking—the alarm is going off. We need to act now, before these premium hikes become unavoidable.

How do media estimate the size of crowds? This is the method I learned in journalism school, although it depends on having a good overall image to work with.

President Trump promised to bring prices down on Day 1, but it is Day 270 and he has allowed a government shut down as utility costs and food prices continue to rise. Will he keep his promise to lower prices for hard working Americans? I’m ready to help when he is.

These indiscriminate federal firings by the Trump Administration will harm constituents in my district, and other communities like mine without saving a dollar for taxpayers. It's just more evidence of bad faith as Americans stare at exploding health costs and our military risking missed paychecks.

A senior couple earning $82,800 a year could face a 236% increase in their premiums. A family of four earning $64,000 a year could face a 226% increase in their premiums. People will lose their health insurance, or It will become unaffordable. This is a life and death issue in Ohio.

I'm at the scene where ICE abducted multiple people from Lincoln and Foster this morning. A WGN producer was among the people taken, allegedly because she was among a group of bystanders who tried to intervene. ICE agents hit this car while making their getaway.

Why is Speaker Johnson refusing to call the House back in to session to pay our troops, and negotiate a solution to save healthcare and open government? This military spouse is not alone, and we need to act to help her and all those we represent. The clock is ticking Mr. Speaker.

House Republicans haven't shown up to work in 18 days. But if they do decide to show up—I have a message for them. 3/4s of the families that rely on the expiring health care credits that you refuse to acknowledge live in red states. Time to show up and do your jobs.

90 years ago, UAW Local 14 was founded on the simple but powerful belief that when working people stand together—when they insist on respect, fairness, and dignity—together we can move mountains. As a daughter of the UAW was happy to join them this week to honor that legacy of solidarity in NW Ohio.
