.@PattyMurray responds: “Once again, when President Trump and his self-described ‘grim reaper’ decide to ignore the pleas of congressional Republicans and conduct more mass firings, they are choosing to inflict more pain on the American people.”
 “No one is making Trump and Vought hurt American workers—they just want to.”

It’s time to take back our city—and our country—from bullies inside and outside the government. I'm running for Congress to take on corporate greed and stand up for working people in IL-07 and across the country. Together, we can fight back against concentrated power, and win.

Oh but we need a "Manhattan Project" to figure out how to get people to have more babies. 🤔
NEW: More than half of America's rural hospitals no longer deliver babies. Parents in rural towns often have to travel upwards of an hour to access essential healthcare. But instead of funding healthcare for rural Americans, Republicans' Medicaid cuts will deepen this divide.

"I don't wait, I work!" Commissioner Slaughter on @CNBC today discussing her return to an "entirely transformed" FTC this week and why the independence of agencies targeted by Trump firings (FTC, the Fed) is necessary for market stability.

Excited to be heading into the office this am! Top of the to-do list: calling a vote on restoring the Click to Cancel Rule. It’s time the FTC gets back to protecting consumers from real abuses like subscription traps that cost Americans countless hours and millions of dollars.

Hours after the Paul Weiss news broke, an associate at Skadden Arps sent a firm-wide email: "Please consider this email my two week notice, revocable if the firm comes up with a satisfactory response to the current moment...We do not have time. It is now or it is never, and if it is never, I will not continue to work here."

Commissioner @RKSlaughterFTC on Bloomberg yesterday: "If the President can illegally remove me, he can illegally remove Jerome Powell... People should be very worried about that."

I'm going to try to attend the ANC meeting tomorrow but it's during kiddo bedtime! I want to let the Commissioners know there's a lot of support for this project!
Here are a few clips from my morning commute on 11th St NW this morning, which @DDOTDC is trying to build a protected bike lane on; @CharlottesWWWeb was hit by a careless driver on this stretch of road last year and broke her wrist.

1. All too often these days, a single glitch results in a system-wide outage, affecting industries from healthcare and airlines to banks and auto-dealers. Millions of people and businesses pay the price. These incidents reveal how concentration can create fragile systems.

I was pleased to be able to ask Acting @DDOTDC Dir. Kershbuam last night about DDOT's plans for Sherman Circle and whether DDOT is retrenching from plans to build safe bike network that DC's families can use. Watch here (sorry for the video quality!): youtu.be/QZUdIXDNzs4

🚨The FTC is finalizing a rule banning noncompete clauses for *all workers* regardless of income or industry. It will increase pay, new business formation, innovation -- and cut health care costs. It's one of the most important things the Biden Administration has done.

Grateful for every minute of the 446 hours I got to spend outdoors, moving and grooving with my kids. Mostly to/from school, appointments, and events - but we got to enjoy the journey.

So frustrating to see Ticketmaster is not cooperating with the DOJ Antitrust investigation. Ensuring compliance with antitrust remedies isn't easy. In the meantime, consumers are missing our chance to have a real competitor. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

We now have a trial date for DOJ’s adtech #monopoly lawsuit against @Google in the “rocket docket” of Eastern District of Virginia. Sept 9, 2024. Six months later, on March 31, 2025, a @TXAG led #antitrust adtech suit v Google will go to trial in Texas (also a rocket docket).

Worth noting his company is currently suing the FTC over it's right to exist and to punish violations of the law. Doesn't really seem consistent with the claims of contrition. 🤷🏼‍♀️
Big moment: Zuckerberg apologizes to survivors and parents in the room after pressure from Sen. Hawley. One parent in the audience told me the move was "really weak" and urged Meta to answer her or her attorneys if he "really wants to apologize." thehill.com/policy/technolog…

To all of the working parents struggling to manage the logistics of a school day that doesn’t align with the work day, release days, the expenses of before/after care… I have a story about living in a walkable neighborhood & sending your kids to the neighborhood school. 1/8
