As you honor my father today, please remember and honor my mother, as well. She was the architect of the King Legacy and founder of @TheKingCenter, which she founded two months after Daddy died. Without #CorettaScottKing, there would be no #MLKDay. #MLK50Forward #MLK

Regardless of how this Alabama senate race ends, I have a message for the Democratic Party and the @DNC. Guess who is doing the heavy lifting for the party? Black voters. Not phantom white working class or white swing voters. Apply resources & time accordingly.

What if one party controlled two branches of government and you wanted to protest them but the page you were using to organize it loaded one word at a time? Let's #BreakTheInternet so the FCC hears us. Call Congress now. aclu.org/netneutrality-callT…

People are not poor b/c they spend their money on ‘women & booze,’ @ChuckGrassley. Working people are poor b/c we inherited an unjust distribution of wealth & ppl like you work to keep it that way.

Wouldn’t it be powerful if tomorrow the 33 US Senators who called on Al Franken to resign called a press conference and called for Senate hearings on allegations of sexual assault by Donald Trump.

We will not let Republicans do the 2021 redistricting in secret. What are they afraid of - the very voters they claim to want to represent? Not this time. Join us. xitter.cf/demredistrict/status/9…
We are building a movement to ensure that the next round of redistricting doesn't happen in secret. #fairmaps Find out how you can get involved at democraticredistricting.com. xitter.cf/srl/status/93818625773…

So Kushner was essentially working for Israel, Michael Flynn was working for Turkey, Paul Manafort was working for Ukraine, and Trump was working for Russia. But, hey, America First, right?

I’ve long believed in and written about “due process of lawmaking.” Subjecting people to a tax law not even written when voted for is anything but. It’s akin to taxation without representation. As I recall, we fought a revolution to resist just that kind of undemocratic exaction.

Responding “higher” is hard. I struggle with it every day. I’ve learned from my parents, from the cycles of hate and violence I see in the world, and from my own errors that peace can only be achieved through peaceful means. But remember: True peace includes justice.

Breaking: CONGRESS HAS NOT PASSED A TAX BILL YET. House & Senate passed 2 different bills. Nothing to send to president yet. This is half time. Plenty of bills have gotten this far and never become law.

I’m furious, but this fight is not over. In the days and weeks to come, I’ll do everything I possibly can to ensure this embarrassment of a tax bill never becomes law.

This is so bad. We have just gotten list of amendments to be included in bill NOT from our R colleagues, but from lobbyists downtown. None of us have seen this list, but lobbyists have it. Need I say more? Disgusting. And we probably will not even be given time to read them.
