It’s troubling to see the U.S. moving backward. Targeting Brown communities is NOT okay. We’re better than this.
Brandon Brown believes we can get back on track — but we must confront the real issues now. It’s time for change.

Why did so many working class New Yorkers vote for Donald Trump last week — and even more not vote at all?
I went to Hillside Ave in Queens and Fordham Rd in the Bronx to find out.

Here's some good news: Catelin Drey won a special election this week to flip a seat blue in the Iowa Senate and break Republicans' supermajority. This seat had been in Republican hands for 13 years. When we are organized and support strong candidates who are focused on the issues that matter, we can win. Let's keep this going.

Since we passed the Affordable Care Act, Republicans have tried over and over to repeal it. And over and over, they’ve failed — in part because millions of people now depend on the ACA for quality, affordable health care.
Now Republicans are trying something different: quietly weakening the law and hoping you won’t notice. We can’t let them.

Nancy Mace says she’s open to the tough questions — until she’s actually asked one.
Now she’s running for governor, chasing a new job after leaving behind a trail of chaos, headlines, and broken trust.

Look at all of this support! These young scholars from The Verita Schools delivered excellence and made it to the semifinals at Harvard’s international summer debate program! It's only right that their community met them with the love they earned. 🙌🏿

Good morning! I'm in Uganda to visit family and friends.
But depending on your perspective, don't worry or I'm sorry: I'll be back by the end of the month.
See you soon, NYC.

Lindsey Graham said, “If we nominate Trump, we will get destroyed… and we will deserve it.” Then spent the next 8 years being Trump’s biggest cheerleader.
He’s a a career politician who only cares about himself, not South Carolinians.

I had a great afternoon in Spartanburg with the brothers of Alpha Phi Alpha. Grateful for the warm welcome and inspired by the powerful civic work they’re doing across the Upstate. Keep leading the way!

It’s nice to know that our candidates for Governor don’t even know what the Governor does.
Last I checked, this still lies with the legislature. But I am happy to discuss this with you Congresswoman. As well as give you a school house rock refresher

Jim Carrey on Donald Trump: “We have a president who started out when the country was together and we had a wonderful leader and he is tearing us limb from limb. Destroying every institution. He’s a used car salesman. He didn’t make America great again, but he did turn back the odometer.”
