    This is truly a nightmare before Christmas that President Trump has orchestrated to appease his own ego and pretend to deliver on a xenophobic campaign promise. One thing is clear: Republicans can't govern. Read my full statement:

    "Fiscal Hawks" & are blocking the bill in the Senate, but they just voted to fund $5 billion of Trump's useless wall. They easily support funding to appease Trump, but hesitate when it comes to helping veterans. Priorities, am I right?

    A handful of Republican Senators are blocking the passage of legislation that would deliver justice to veterans. As long as they continue putting partisanship ahead of our veterans, the House Committee on Veterans' Affairs will keep prioritizing this issue.

    veterans have been waiting too long for our government to fulfill the promise it made them. It’s a shame that a handful of Senate Republicans are blocking the Blue Water Navy Vietnam Veterans Act from becoming law and denying veterans the justice they deserve.

    .'s School Safety Report should be titled: “A guide to trample students’ civil rights, sell more guns, and blame everything on minority students.” This report is a sham. As a former public school teacher, I find it insulting that would release this.

    The Trump administration will rescind Obama-era policies aimed at ensuring that minority students are not unfairly disciplined at school

    A 7 year old died under ’s watch. and everyone pushing the harmful, inhumane immigration policies in the Trump Administration should be ashamed. The amount of pain and heartache this Administration continues to inflict on innocent people is reprehensible.

    NBC News confirms this is Jakelin Ameí Rosmery Caal Maquin, the 7 year old girl who died in Border Patrol custody.
