Let's pass the damn bill.
If Donald Trump wants to veto Medicare for All and defend our broken healthcare system and Republicans want to sustain that veto, then the American people will know exactly who is standing in the way of real change.
Poll after poll shows Americans support Medicare for All.
66% - KFF poll
59% - Wall Street Journal poll
60%, including 87% of Democrats - Economist-YouGov poll
It’s time for Democratic leadership to listen to the American people and PASS IT.
Today:
60% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck and we have the highest rate of childhood poverty of any major nation.
Meanwhile, Elon Musk owns more wealth than the bottom 53% of households and the 1% have never ever had it so good
Not acceptable
We need an economy that works for all, not just the few.
This election showed that the American people want BOLD change:
- Medicare for All
- A wealth tax on billionaires so that we can build affordable housing, have universal childcare and free tuition at public colleges and universities.
- Raise the minimum wage to $20 an hour.
- End the war in Iran and U.S. military aid to Israel
LET’S DO IT
Congratulations to Jane Kim on her election as California Insurance Commissioner.
At a time when insurance companies are raking in record profits while working families struggle to afford coverage, Jane will stand up to powerful corporate interests.
End the illegal war in Iran.
19 American troops dead.
Thousands of innocent people killed.
Tens of billions of taxpayer dollars wasted.
Gas and diesel prices skyrocketing.
On Tuesday, the American people sent a clear message.
Democrats must DEFUND this horrific war.
DEMOCRATS MUST DELIVER
Trumpism grew out of the failure of the Democratic Party to stand with working families. That cannot continue. At a time of unprecedented income and wealth inequality and declining faith in democracy, Democrats MUST deliver. No excuses.
- Medicare for All
- A $20-an-hour minimum wage
- The PRO Act
- A wealth tax on billionaires, which would pay for universal childcare, free public colleges and universities, and a massive housing program
- An AI data center moratorium
- Bringing ICE under control and comprehensive immigration reform
- REAL campaign finance reform
Progressives are winning — big time.
Candidates we endorsed in this election won:
15 of 16 House races
3 of 4 Senate races
And flipped 6 Republican-held House seats
From MI to TX, ME and everywhere in between, candidates across the country took on the billionaire class and WON.
The American people spoke loudly and clearly on Tuesday. The new Democratic majority cannot continue the same old, same old establishment policies.
Working families want change, REAL change, and that’s what Democrats must deliver.
Last night saw some of the greatest progressive victories in modern American history. All across the country, in rural and urban areas, Americans said NO to oligarchy, and YES to an agenda that fights for the working class.

Trump asked the people to vote as if he were on the ballot. THEY DID. Thank you Americans from coast to coast.
Democrats will now control the House and Senate and be able to hold Trump accountable. That's great.
At a time of massive income and wealth inequality, we must do more. We must aggressively fight for working families.
No more excuses.

AIPAC spent $30 million against Abdul El-Sayed in the primary. Then they dropped another $9 million to support Mike Rogers.
Here's the good news. In response to AIPAC, ordinary Americans donated $12 million to Abdul.
They have the money. We have the people. Let's win.
On this Election Day, we must vote to hold Donald Trump and his corrupt administration accountable.
We must end Republican control over the Senate and House.
Please get out and vote — and make sure your friends do as well.
Thanks to the many thousands across Florida who participated in our telephone town hall with Angie Nixon today.
The American people are fed up with status quo politics. They want real change.
And that’s what Angie will deliver.
Angie Nixon for U.S. Senate!
Oligarchs in California spent $379 million against Prop 40, a 5% billionaire wealth tax, outraising supporters 250-1.
They’d rather poor kids die than pay a little more in taxes. Obscene.
California, send these oligarchs a message: Democracy is not for sale.
Vote for Prop 40.
