  1. Proud of my state for having the country's best public school system for the 5th year in a row! (via )

  2. Great choice by the President. Jack Lew will be an excellent Treasury Secretary & I urge the Senate to swiftly confirm him

  3. Proud to cosponsor 's bill banning high capacity ammo mags. Now, not later, is the time for common sense gun safety measures.

  4. Reintro'd DISCLOSE for 113th Cong. yesterday. We can't let up in fight for transparent, acctable elections. More info:

  5. Senate passed a bipartisan deal to avert fiscal cliff -- should allow an up or down vote on that bill immediately.

  6. POTUS on his way to DC to address & tax cuts for middle class. w/ just 6 days left to act, GOP still MIA.

  7. 's LaPierre took no Qs at his press conference b/c even he can't explain why anyone would ever need a high-capacity assault weapon.

  8. Truly scary that the tea party GOP will fight to give millionaires $50k in bonus breaks even if it means driving the country off the cliff.

  9. GOP sked'ing another vote on their unpoplar Reconciliation bill that will kick 300K+ kids off their school meal prgrms.

  10. By voting on his Plan B & Reconciliation cuts, Spkr Boehner is walking the U.S. twd the cliff's edge & the most vulnerable off the plank.

  11. .'s "Plan B" = the latest example of the GOP walking away from negotiations. The "B" must stand for "Backing out."

  12. Our prayers are w/all those who lost loved ones in this horrible tragedy. Together, we must find a way to end these senseless mass killings.

  13. Reissued CRS report rips the last fig leaf off the GOP fiction that tax cuts for the top 2%=economic growth -

  14. Any plan to strengthen M'care MUST ctrl rising healthcare costs. Raising the age of elig. just shifts them onto Srs –
