    More lies. The Affordable Care Act protects people with pre-existing conditions. You want to repeal it, and Republicans in Congress have tried to repeal it more than 70 times.

    Dedicated public servants like our service members, teachers & first responders deserve the student loan forgiveness they were promised. Yet new data shows 99.6% of applications have been denied. Secretary DeVos needs to end this mismanagement of PSLF.

    For decades, NAFTA has driven down workers’ wages and shipped good-paying jobs overseas. Over the coming weeks it will be on Congress to decide—on the merits—if the final deal improves the lives of working people across North America. Anything less than that should be rejected.

    I still believe that the American people deserve more than a dismissal of allegations, be they from Professor Hill or Dr. Ford. We deserve to know the truth.
