Record numbers coming to food banks. People shopping for immigrant families afraid to get out. We should be shopping at immigrant owned grocery stores for donations, our neighbors & OURSELVES. Immigrant owned stores need support too. Things may have different names but often cheaper.

There's a clear path forward: 1. Quickly pass the other 5 spending bills before the Friday night deadline & keep government open.   2. Separate out the DHS bill & work on common sense steps to rein in ICE and CBP.   Senate Democrats are ready to get it done. Republicans must join us.

As deepfakes blur the line between truth and fiction, we’ll need a new class of forensic experts to determine what’s real, what’s fake and what can be proved in court

Here's what happened on the Senate floor today: Republicans voted to kill our bill to save the ACA tax credits—this was our last chance. Then they held a sham vote on a GOP bill that does NOTHING to lower health care premiums. Make sure everyone knows it.

Today was our last chance in Congress to save the Affordable Care Act subsidies that help people afford care before they expire at the end of the year. And what did Republicans do? They voted NO.

You can call ANY senator or congressman from ANY state.
