Congress must pass emergency aid funding for #PuertoRico to help the island manage its immediate and critical needs relating to education and the welfare of children and their families. Take action with AFT to contact your Rep today: actionnetwork.org/letters/urge-c…

Justice Sotomayor is warning us. If Trump wins, the Supreme Court and the federal bench will be lost for decades. And all of your progressive plans on jobs, health care, education, immigration or criminal justice reform will be struck down by the courts. slate.com/news-and-polit…

This is why I’m an ardent defender of the First Amendment. Because government officials, including Donald J. Trump, want to regulate free speech. The First Amendment prevents that from happening. #SaturdayThoughts

The Dow dropped significantly this morning because of the continuing spread of the coronavirus. The Donald J. Trump budget proposes cuts to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Retweet if you think cutting CDC is really dumb. #MondayMorning Thoughts

As a child, Katherine Johnson said she “counted everything: the steps, the dishes, the stars in the sky." As a mathematician, she broke barriers to help reach those stars. Her calculations helped put Americans in space, in orbit, and, finally, on the moon. #HiddenFigures

Just a reminder that Rush Limbaugh, who was given the medal of freedom by Trump, said that Obama wasn’t stoping flights from west Africa during the Ebola crisis because he believed Americans deserved payback for slavery

Despicable.

Dear Donald J. Trump: Here are some ideas to combat the coronavirus: -Tell the truth -Restore The White House pandemic position -Reverse your cuts to CDC -Reverse your cuts to NIH -Have Acting Secretary Chad Wolf stop telling people the kill rate is same as the flu. It’s 20 times deadlier.

Rush Limbaugh and right-wing fringe sites are attacking Dr. Nancy Messonnier, a top CDC official handling the coronavirus response, because she is Rod Rosenstein's sister. They're spreading the lie that she's part of the deep state and trying to tank the markets to weaken Trump.

There is a big ballot flaw in LA County ballots. Half the voters in my district won’t see my name or other candidates unless they hit “more” button because only 4 names are shown. Voters could skip to next race without knowing there were more candidates. google.com/amp/s/www.lati…

JUST IN: House passes Emmett Till Antilynching Act that would make lynching a federal hate crime; passage comes more than century after anti-lynching legislation was first introduced; bill heads to the president. The bill states that 4,742 lynchings were reported from 1892-1968.

Purging public servants disloyal to a regime is banana-republic stuff. Our federal employees work for the American people, not the president.

Agree with New York Times Opinion #blueunityticket2020 let’s go! My choice Biden/Warren ++ +. could be Sanders/Klobuchar +++ Dems -Show us you put democracy over ego & ideals We’ll show you 1+1= way more than 2

While I am grateful for the people who got their jobs back, my heart goes out to the more than 16 million Americans still out of work. The truth is it didn't have to be this bad, but Donald Trump failed to act. He's the one person who should lose his job. medium.com/@JoeBiden/my-s…
