Today, Rep. Dan Goldman and I re-introduced the Abortion Care Awareness Act of 2025. This bill directs HHS to launch a national education campaign so people know their rights, understand their options, and can access accurate info about abortion care.

I find it useless to engage in all the "How do you feel about that protest vote or non-vote NOW?" stuff that always ends in mutual disgust here. None of us is likely to change our minds about who caused it. We're all living the results. We don't have to like each other to join hands and fight back!

DT got rid of the Federal aviation safety board and fired the head of FAA because Musk was being fined for safety violations. Then there is a plane crash that occurred during his administration. DT is causing chaos.

If you’re a federal worker and you are offered to quit and be paid till the end of the year, don’t take it. DT has no authority to release those funds. It’s a scam.

SHARE WIDELY. KNOW YOUR RIGHTS. With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights. You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one. (1/3)

So DT wants us to be dumb, sick but have no health insurance, vulnerable to outside attacks, have increasingly catastrophic climate but with more emissions yet blames the states for not controlling climate-related events, pardons felons (violent offenders& one murderer). Welcome to 2025.

Elon Musk just gave a speech and did a Sieg Heil. Nazi salute. No need to debate people who tell you Republicans aren't Nazis. There's no point. We know they are Nazis. They know they are Nazis. They want to keep you caught up in arguing over basic truth and facts. Don't bother. We all know.

Remember, today especially, that MLK said America suffers not just from "the vitriolic words and actions of the bad people but for the appalling silence of the good people." Keep the faith. Keep up the fight.
