Palestinians in Gaza are being starved to death. The IDF is blocking aid and shooting people waiting in line for food. People are collapsing in the streets from extreme starvation. Horrors upon horrors. The U.S. must stop funding Israel’s manufactured famine and genocide.
Doctors Without Borders, Save the Children and Oxfam International were among the 115 international aid groups that signed a statement describing food shortages in Gaza as "mass starvation," as the "Israeli government’s siege starves the people of Gaza." abcnews.link/IjBCpVy
The minimum wage has been $7.25 an hour for 16 years. If Members of Congress had to live off $7.25 an hour, they'd be raising the minimum wage this afternoon.

Zohran Mamdani’s proposal for government-run grocery stores is yet another radical Marxist fantasy that ignores reality and history. That’s why I’m introducing the MAMDANI Act.
Trump’s EPA is going to tell us that climate change isn’t dangerous and that the government should turn a blind eye as it gets worse. This goes beyond the law, beyond the courts, and beyond common sense. Selling out our safety for the convenience of polluters. Shameful.
Trump is trying to destroy unions so that billionaires can have free reign to exploit workers. Congress must push back against these attacks. Join @AFLCIO and urge your Representative to sign a discharge petition and pass the Protect America’s Workforce Act: 844-944-4554.
Attacking @AOC's office is a gift to those who prefer our anti-war movement stay busy attacking pro-Palestinian voices in Congress instead of building the political power necessary to stop the bombs. Here's the truth: @AOC is on H.R.3565, the Block the Bombs Act. Is your rep on?
She has one of the strongest pro-Palestinian voting records in Congress. It’s fair to debate strategy and disagreement over specific choices--but vandalizing her office and saying @AOC “funds genocide” isn’t just wrong. It’s reckless, dishonest, misleading, and deeply unserious.…
“The fossil fuel industry has a new lie,” says @aru_shineyajay w/@sunrisemvmt. “First, it was climate denial, then personal responsibility. Now it’s: ‘It’s too late, we can’t do anything.’ It’s all to keep drilling and screwing over the rest of us.” WATCH:…
Good afternoon! AOC & Paul Tonko are in Plattsburgh, NY (Stefanik’s district). This is the overflow for a sold out town hall that’s about to start. About 10% of the entire population of the town is out today to make their voices heard.
Not an existential threat?
.@SecretaryWright tells it like it is: Climate change is a by-product of human progress—not an existential threat. We do not apologize for American energy; it is the foundation of EVERYTHING! economist.com/by-invitation/…
After deadly floods swept through Texas, we demanded answers. Today, we secured an independent investigation into whether cuts to weather agencies made the disaster worse and make us less safe going forward. Texans deserve answers — and real action before the next disaster.
Rep. Greg Casar has secured an independent investigation of cuts to weather agencies following the Texas flooding disaster, according to a press release from the congressman. cbsaustin.com/news/local/rep…
if you care about immigration, democracy, and the American Dream, perhaps you should be endorsing the immigrant who was fairly elected as the DEMOCRATIC nominee for mayor of New York City. Seems like basic practice for a supposed democrat.
People are always asking me why I care about immigration. For me, it’s personal. It’s the story of my family and the American dream.
Better things, they are possible. Join us as we fight for a Green New Deal that puts workers first.
The climate crisis is fueling extreme heat putting and workers' lives are on the line. Thank you to @SenMarkey for fighting for their safety and standing with working people.
No worker should have to risk injury or death from extreme heat. My Heat Stress Protection Act will guarantee workers water, shade, breaks, and basic safety. The thermometer’s rising—and workers can’t wait.
The environment is Trump's second weakest issue. Democratic politicians should be talking every day about this: how he's polluting our water and burning our future — all to help Big Oil get richer.

Everything is a hoax, until it starts affecting him.
Trump is trashing members of his MAGA base, condemning their ongoing push for files related to Jeffrey Epstein and calling the ongoing controversy a hoax. ow.ly/PM1n50WqFIm
The brutal killing of Palestinian American citizen Sayfollah Musallet while visiting family in the West Bank is a tragedy, and one that deserves a full investigation, answers, and accountability. My thoughts are with his family during this difficult time.
Another U.S. citizen murdered in the West Bank. Sayfollah Musallet deserves justice and accountability. The U.S. government must conduct a swift investigation and take action against settler violence. npr.org/2025/07/12/g-s…
A TENFOLD increase from last summer. We can't go on like this.
Extreme heat in Spain contributed to more than 1,100 deaths between May and July, a tenfold increase from last summer, the Spanish government said bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
