In a country with a president who is such a destructive sore loser, politicians who are both helpful and gracious in defeat is a greatly appreciated novelty.

The Trump Admin is attempting to roll back rules requiring companies to disclose climate risk information to investors. We’re urging the SEC to keep these crucial requirements. Amid an affordability crisis, Americans deserve complete info to protect their investments—including retirement savings.

El-Sayed: "If all Mike Rogers got is that 'his name is Abdul, and my name is Mike,' you're gonna be surprised how many people are like, 'Yeah, but that's the Abdul who wants to bring down the price of my groceries and make sure I got healthcare. So yeah, I like Abdul over your Mike from Florida.'"
Abdul El-Sayed was outspent 9-to-1 by AIPAC and corporate Super PACs in the most expensive Senate Democratic primary of all time. Last night, he proved that organized people can beat organized money.

More than half of Americans have cut out eating out just to afford necessities. That’s not belt tightening, that’s an entire country getting sucked dry while corrupt Republicans & their billionaires pretend everythings fine. We don’t fix it by staying quiet. #BlueWaveIn90Days

Christina Bohannan lost by 800 votes last time. 800. Meanwhile her dad’s own insurance company canceled him the moment he got sick, and Washington shrugged. This time we close that gap, we flip IA-01, and we do it for every family insurance companies threw away. #BlueWaveIn90Days #USDemocracy
This is a new view of the bulldozed White House complex. The criminal monstrosity subhuman filth won’t stop until he destroys everything, makes me sick to my stomach.
Josh Turek wants something better for Iowans — he’s the Dem running to flip the Senate. Just an amazing human being! He wants to lower costs, raise wages, restore Roe,protect workers, SS & Medicare, reproductive healthcare and will fight for farmers and education. More of this 🙏🏼 #BlueWaveIn90Days

One side wants affordable gas, groceries, housing, and healthcare. The other side wants Trump’s face on Mount Rushmore and a Forever War with Iran. This November, you choose. #BlueWaveIn90Days

If ICE can send subpoenas to deanonymize social media accounts, couldn't they have done it for the anonymous and overtly racist account we found is run by one of their own employees who is still working there?

If you want a senator who's gonna lick some boots, go vote for Rogers. But if you want a senator who's going to stand up to Trump, you've got your option.
