President Biden has delivered huge wins for working people, the climate, and more. He has been a consequential president. By stepping aside, he has again done the difficult, right thing. I'm deeply grateful. And now-the first Black, South Asian, MADAME President-Kamala Harris!!

Thrilled with the pick of Tim Walz! He knows how to govern, he has delivered for working families, & his down-to-earth authenticity offers a polar opposite to JD Vance. Go Harris-Walz!

Like all regular people in America's heartland, JD Vance studied at Yale, had his career funded by Silicon Valley billionaires, and wrote a bestseller trashing that community. Come on. I can't wait to debate the guy—that is, if he's willing to get off the couch and show up.

There is a lot at stake in November: workers' rights, civil rights, reproductive rights, the social safety net, our planet, and much more. We must get out the vote for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz, hold our Senate majority, and flip the House to deliver for the people!

Kids can't learn if they're hungry. Yet less than half the children eligible for free or reduced-price meals in Oregon participate in the program. This is such good news, and such good policy.

WOW—I need all the children to be okay. The poor children of inner city Atlanta, the poor children of Appalachia, the children of Israel, the children of Gaza, children of Congo, children of Haiti, the children of Ukraine, we need all children to be okay…

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again. Citizens United is a scourge on our democracy. Extremist billionaires with hidden agendas should not be able to subvert our democracy by hiding behind dark money super PACs.

Thanks to the disastrous Citizens United decision, billionaires and the ultra-wealthy can buy elections. We need campaign finance reform now.

It’s the filibuster OR an assault weapons ban. It's the filibuster OR codified abortion access. It's the filibuster OR raising the minimum wage It's the filibuster OR protecting voting rights. The choice is clear. Abolish the Jim Crow filibuster.

I joined Sen. Bernie Sanders and Senator Peter Welch to introduce Joint Resolutions of Disapproval to block the sales of offensive weapons used in Gaza by Netanyahu’s government. Gaza is suffering a cascading humanitarian disaster. The U.S. is complicit. No bombs. More aid.

I co-sponsored Sen. Bernie Sanders’ Joint Resolutions of Disapproval because the U.S. cannot continue to send offensive weapons to Netanyahu’s government as it fuels a humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza. No bombs. More aid.

If the Democratic Party is to become a democratic party, the first job of a new DNC Chair is to get super-PAC money out of Democratic primaries. AIPAC and other billionaire-funded super-PACS cannot be allowed to select Democratic candidates.
