    Just read the FBI report on Kavanaugh - if that’s an investigation, it’s a bullshit investigation.

    While campaigning, Trump may have said he’d protect Americans, but it was a charade - he’s still attacking this vulnerable community. Members of the LGBTQ community if Congress steps in and passes The Equality Act, something that’s now more urgent than ever.

    “Defining ‘sex’ with narrow language tailored to the talking points of anti-equality extremists is part of a deliberate strategy to eliminate federal protections for LGBTQ people,” said President . Trans people .

    Celebrating 125 years of the Wallace Temple AME Zion Church in Bayonne! The mission of this church and its pastor, Reverend Dorothy Patterson, is exactly what I advocate for in the Senate: human rights, social justice, tolerance and inclusion. Loved being here today.

    This is far from the end and we need to keep up the international pressure. Congress did its part when we invoked Global Magnitsky Act for a presidential determination. Now President Trump must follow the law.

    We have proven that international pressure can succeed. Our united outrage clearly factored into the Saudi gov’s calculated admission The Global Magnitsky Act doesn’t have exceptions for accidents. Even if Khashoggi died because of an altercation, that’s no excuse for his murder

    A year ago we stopped Republicans from making these drastic cuts. Cutting Medicaid and Medicare is their M.O., and they will try to do it again. I will work to stop them every time.

    Cutting $1 TRILLION from Medicaid & BILLIONS from Medicare to help the top 1% is unconscionable. What a terrible deal for the middle class

    Mitch McConnell confirming out loud what we've been warning about: that if he's in power next year, he'll come after Medicare, Social Security, and even affordable health care!

    Sen. McConnell on health care this week: 1: Republicans want to cut Medicare, Medicaid, & Social Security to pay for tax cuts for corporations. 2: Rs will try again to repeal our health care law. 3: He supports the lawsuit that could get rid of pre-existing condition protections.

    to when the Republicans tried to cut $473 billion from Medicare last year to offset tax cuts for the top 1%. We stopped this budget then, and I will stand strong against Republican Medicare cuts again and again.

    Republicans have no problem taking $473 billion from Medicare in their budget to give tax cuts to the top 1%. Really shows who they value

    Those responsible for the murder of Jamal Khashoggi must be held accountable. If they’re not, we know what will happen based on Jamal’s final column where he warns, “governments will have free rein to continue silencing the media."

    Watch the video. Republican leaders think saving corporate tax giveaways are more important than saving your retirement and health care. We can't let them take your hard-earned benefits just because they foolishly gave away $1.5 trillion to big corporations and the top 1%

    In 2017, I mustered all of my energy to fight tooth and nail to save the Affordable Care Act alongside & more brave NJans. Now Republicans say they will try again. When. Will. They. Learn!?

    As the great Maya Angelou said, "When someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time." Mitch McConnell is saying what I've always known - he hasn't given up on gutting protections for preexisting conditions & ending the progress we've made under Obamacare.

    You pay into Social Security and Medicare your entire working life. You EARNED those benefits. We can't let McConnell Republicans take your hard-earned benefits because he foolishly gave away $1.5 trillion to big corporations and the top 1%

    So let’s get this straight: Republicans passed a tax law that they claimed would give Americans a $4k raise Instead it expanded the deficit with $2T in tax cuts mostly for corporations & the wealthiest few Now they blame—and want to cut—Medicaid, Medicare & Social Security 🤔

    I tried to stop this! As you see from my tweet a year ago, Republicans wouldn't have it. And now McConnell says it out loud - he wants to target Social Security and Medicare to make up for massive deficits from his tax giveaway. Absolutely not. Not while I'm here, dammit.

    I just voted to stop future cuts to Medicare and Social Security that may be triggered by , but not surprisingly the Republicans rejected it. It's almost like they know those kind of painful cuts is exactly what their deficit will lead to.

    Look at this graphic I posted about a year ago. It's coming to fruition. McConnell said he needs to cut Social Security & Medicare to make up for deficits from his tax giveaway. Rest assured, I'm standing strong to defend these essential lifelines.

    The non-partisan now says the will blow an even bigger hole in the deficit than they thought. That means future Republicans will have to take even more out of Medicare, Social Security & Education to pay for it.

    From marriage equality and non-discrimination legislation, to protecting health care rights and opposing homophobic nominees, I'm proud to stand up for the community now and always.

    Alarmed that Facebook wants your banking info when we just learned that a security breach exposed 50 million users’ info? So am I. & I are pressing Facebook to secure their users’ info before they get even more sensitive data.
