If you support eliminating the Department of Education, you do not support our students. Period. @USEDgov provides funding for: ✅Students w/ disabilities ✅Rural students ✅Programs that make college affordable This would be bad for students, and bad for America.

It’s going to take time to sort through what happened Tuesday. But I've read a lot of takes the past few days (some good, many bad), and I've had a lot of people ask how I won one of the toughest districts in the country by over 13%. Here are some thoughts: 🧵

To everyone who is afraid of what happens next, I share your fears. But what we do next is important. We have to learn from what happened. And then, make a plan. As we confront a second Trump presidency, here’s a path forward: 🧵

A Texas teen tested positive for sepsis, but was cleared to leave because her fetus still had a heartbeat. She got worse, but they insisted on 2 ultrasounds before treatment. She died hours later. If you have daughters in TX, vote for Allred & Harris. Their lives depend on it.

This Halloween, we know that affordable health care, quality education, and clean air aren’t treats – they’re freedoms that every Minnesotan deserves. MAGA Republicans want to control these freedoms, but we won’t fall for their tricks. Be a voter by Nov. 5th. #WeMakeOurFuture

I’ve been all over the country in the last month. And I get asked the same question, over and over again: “I disagree with Kamala’s position on the war in Gaza. How can I vote for her?” Here is my answer:

MLK’s daughter writes: A vote for Kamala Harris is not an endorsement of US funding for the war. It does not mean you are forsaking your right to protest her actions and policies. But she is the candidate who will protect our constitutional right to protest. bit.ly/3A63v3d

Replying to @terrelljstarr
If Ukraine is your issue,you should be voting Harris. If Palestine is your issue, you should be voting Harris. If you are a non fascist, you should be voting Harris. If you are for no Muslim ban, etc. This is an easy choice. It's only hard if you compare Harris to the perfect
