It is a dark day for democracy when the Senate will not even allow a vote on whether U.S. taxpayer dollars should fund Netanyahu’s war against the Palestinian people.

This country is in the midst of a massive housing crisis.
Millions of people are spending more than 50% of their limited income on rent.
More than 650K people are homeless.
Enough is enough. Affordable housing is a human right.

LIVE NOW: We are witnessing unspeakable suffering in Gaza as we speak. It’s time for the U.S. to stop asking Netanyahu to do the right thing, and start telling him what must happen. xitter.cf/i/broadcasts/1MYxNoLDB…

While CEOs are making nearly 350x as much as their employees, workers are missing their kids’ birthday parties and little league games...and many of them, STILL do not have enough money to pay the rent.
We need a 32-hour workweek with no loss in pay.

Israel is blocking humanitarian aid in clear violation of U.S. law, which prohibits military assistance to any country that restricts U.S. humanitarian aid.
It’s time we enforce our laws and stop military assistance to Israel.

The top 5 of the richest billionaires have seen their wealth *double* since 2020.
Inequality is *the* fundamental issue facing our world.
And the rich and powerful are doing everything they can to keep power concentrated at the top.
@OxfamAmerica tells us why.

The American people understand a simple truth that Congress ignores: It is absurd and hypocritical to criticize Netanyahu’s inhumane war in one breath, and provide him another $10 billion to continue that war in the next.
Tom retweeted
A majority of Americans now believe that — due to the horrific humanitarian disaster in Gaza — the U.S. should block new arms shipments to Israel.
I agree.
There should be no more U.S. money for the Netanyahu war machine. cepr.net/press-release/poll-…

The United States, which has helped fund the Israeli military for years, cannot sit back and allow hundreds of thousands of innocent children in Gaza to starve to death.

We cannot allow millions to suffer because of the alleged actions of 12 people.
The U.S. and other countries must restore funding to UNRWA, which provides food, water, and essential services to the people of Gaza.

Currently, the U.S. provides $3.8 billion a year to Israel with close to no strings attached.
President Biden has asked Congress for $14.3 billion more on top of that and to waive normal, already-limited oversight rules.
This blank check approach must end.

I just got our monthly Enmax bill...$188.40. We used $35.19 of electricity and $4.13 of natural gas last month. It is the add on charges and fees that make up the bulk of the bill. @TheRealDKGray or @ABDanielleSmith or @neudorf_ab can you explain my bill to me?
