Every student should be able to attend class free from discrimination or harassment, regardless of their identity.

It’s bullies like Greg Abbott who make these federal protections necessary. Now, he wants to ignore them.

Hamas and the Israeli government should agree to a ceasefire that guarantees long-term safety for Israelis & Palestinians. Innocent lives β€” like the refugees in Rafah and the hostages β€” are not bargaining chips. They’re human lives to be protected. (Alex Witt / MSNBC)

Every single worker has the right to a safe workplace β€” whether that means guaranteed rest breaks, thorough safety training, or paid sick days.

This , let's protect people over corporate profits.

Freedom of speech and peaceful assembly are basic constitutional rights.

Student protesters β€” whether you agree with them or not β€” have a right to safety & fairness. Responding to peaceful demonstrations with weapons and riot gear escalates tension and makes everyone less safe.

Hundreds of women have been inspired by Vanessa's story to share their experiences with sexual misconduct in the military β€” reminding us that change is desperately needed.

Happy ! 🌎

Our country has made historic progress on tackling the climate crisis, but even bolder action is needed to protect our planet for generations to come.

I'll continue working in Congress to pass transformative legislation like the Green New Deal!

Today, I, along with 36 of my Democratic colleagues, voted no on sending additional offensive weapons to Netanyahu and the Israeli military.

We can create a better future without death, terrorism, and occupation β€” together.
