Yes, I am on board with making laws to end the pipeline to corporate welfare and to have universal healthcare. The few should not control what the many want in a democracy and corporations are currently paying for favors. That is NOT the American way. Let’s prepare to have a #BlueWaveIn90Days!

El-Sayed: "My commitment to Jewish safety is the same commitment that I have to the safety of my own daughters. Because if there is one question of political philosophy that ought to animate us all, it's what would we do if we treated all our kids like they were all of our kids?"

It’s pretty sad traveling as an American these days. I have traveled over three million miles and Americans are definitely treated very differently now. I was forced to check a bag from Europe to the states that I usually travel with. I get to the gate, so many carry on’s!

Dear @padilla.senate.gov : Can taxpayers also sue the contractor we paid $14.7 million (with his profit margin of $20% compared to typical 6%-12% federal range) who botched the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool--along with the sitting president who gave him a no-bid contract?

Padilla co-wrote a bill that would let the public sue a sitting president to recover money taken through corruption. Yes, a sitting president. www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/trumps-law...

Sanders: Look at what Mamdani is doing and contrast that with Trump. Trump cuts funding for child care. Mamdani thinks we should have free, universal child care. Who do you think is on the side of the American people on these issues?

Speaking of referendums this Tuesday, Missouri is also holding one that would make it nearly impossible for citizen initiatives to pass at the ballot box. Missouri voters need to get out and VOTE NO on Amendment 4 on August 4th. www.stlpr.org/government-p...

Making it harder to amend the Missouri Constitution is facing strong pushback

Amendment 4 would require any constitutional amendment put on the ballot through the initiative petition process to pass in all eight congressional districts.

Another reminder to Kansas voters to VOTE NO on this Tuesday's referendum to directly elect State Supreme Court Justices - instead of the current Gov appointment process - which would undeniably shift the court to the right and ban abortion access in the state. abcnews.com/US/wireStory...

Republicans want voters to elect Kansas Supreme Court justices and move court to the right

Kansas voters will decide Tuesday whether to elect state Supreme Court justices rather than have the governor appoint them
