THREAD: Today, House Democrats will keep their campaign promises with a vote to raise the federal minimum wage to $15 per hour. Trump—who has failed to deliver on his own promise to raise wages—should take notes. #RaiseTheWage washingtonpost.com/business/2019/…

We adamantly reject the Administration’s ongoing blame game targeting immigrants and #disability community for the weekend’s horrific acts of violent white supremacy. #EndGunViolence 1/8

This is wonky until you've been ripped off by a business or your employer steals your wages - and then told you can't go to court. Important step forward today for workers and consumers, but Sen. McConnell will need some convincing...

“The whistleblower isn’t the reason [Trump] is facing an impeachment inquiry. Trump only has his own actions to blame for that.” Trump committed impeachable offenses by extorting Ukraine for political gain and urging interference in our elections. He gave us the proof himself.

These allegations against Alito, if true, would be a damning indictment on an institution that portrays itself as being beyond politics. There is an urgent need for a binding and enforceable code of ethics. ampr.gs/3AxAqKO

And almost certainly a president can now sell pardons to the highest bidder!! After all, pardons are official presidential actions under the Constitution. Beyond dangerous for democracy.

Vice President Kamala Harris is an exceptional and accomplished leader who is positioned to unite her Party and then a nation. It will be a great honor to knock on doors for her, make calls on her behalf, and to cast a ballot for the first woman President of the United States.
