SHARE WIDELY.
KNOW YOUR RIGHTS.
With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights.
You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one.

Elon Musk and his 19-year-olds have now disrupted the approval of medical devices that save lives.
Every member of Congress bears a responsibility to stop this right now.
Tomorrow, the House will vote on the NDAA, which includes a provision to merge parts of our military with the IDF.
This amendment is an existential threat to American sovereignty and democracy.
Every member of Congress must vote NO.
This is not a fight about tax credits.
This is a fight over your ability to go to a pharmacy and afford your insulin.
We have the chance to protect the health care of millions of Americans. We need to take it.
Republicans’ partisan spending bill turns the federal government into a slush fund for Donald Trump and Elon Musk.
It’s unthinkable that any Senate Democrat would hand them a blank check by voting for cloture.
The bipartisan Restore Trust in Congress Act is a necessary step to ban Members of Congress and their families from engaging in insider trading.
It is time to pass this bill and make it clear to the American people that their elected officials put them first.
School just started, and we are already mourning two children killed and dozens more injured as they prayed during mass.
It doesn’t have to be this way. Congress must act to keep our kids safe.
Republicans have just proposed defunding Planned Parenthood nationwide.
In doing so, they are telling women and people across the country that our healthcare doesn’t matter and that we are undeserving of care.
It’s time to stop this bill in its tracks.
Three years ago, a corrupt Supreme Court seized our rights and overturned Roe v. Wade. The resulted is just what we predicted. Women dying because they can't get basic healthcare. Doctors afraid to treat patients.
We will not stop fighting until abortion rights are restored.
Republicans are saying that these cuts will be reinvested into Medicaid for people who "deserve" it.
If that were true, the budget would stay the same. But that's not what's happening. Why?
Because down the hall, they are trying to finance tax breaks for billionaires.
It’s 2 am and we’re still marking up massive cuts to Medicaid.
While their constituents are asleep, Republicans are trying to take away health care from 13.7 million people to pay for tax cuts for billionaires.
They want you to tune out. Don’t ⬇️

I am sickened by today’s attack in Manchester. Antisemitism is on the rise around the world, and we must do all we can to stomp it out. I am grateful to first responders and congregants who showed incredible bravery, and I am praying for those who were killed.
For-profit insurance companies like UnitedHealthcare are defrauding taxpayers out of $80 billion a year.
HHS Secretary Kennedy claims he wants to "clean up corruption" while he is doubling taxpayer dollars to these companies.
That sounds like the real "waste, fraud, and abuse."

You do NOT have to speak to ICE without a JUDICIAL warrant. If they attempt to enter your home or your workplace, ask for a warrant. Sometimes they will try to use other, non qualifying paperwork. They need a warrant.

We can't fall into right-wing populism’s lie that the most vulnerable in society are to blame for wealth inequality in our countries. We need to build movements that tell the truth: the story of wealth inequality is not a cultural one, but a class one.
If Paramount can shell out billions of dollars to acquire Warner Bros. Discovery, then they can pay their unionized CBS staff a fair wage.
I stand with the CBS staff who walked out today as they fight these corporate giants for essential protections and fair contracts.
The Department of Education, among other things, is what funds special education for children with disabilities.
Trump’s executive order will hurt kids and parents in virtually every school district in the country.
Washington’s refusal to regulate AI is a corruption story. Just ask Donald Trump and Speaker Mike Johnson.

We distributed these materials in English and Spanish across our community this weekend and invite you to share these reminders widely.
Print it out and keep it in your wallet or on your fridge for reference and safe keeping. We are in this together. (3/3)
The Trump Admin is trying to disappear almost 200 more people to El Salvador.
This is a violation of due process.
If we let Trump get away with disappearing immigrants under the Alien Enemies Act, there is nothing stopping him from disappearing U.S. citizens next. (1/2)
The Trump Administration’s treatment of Mahmoud Khalil is inhumane and unconstitutional.
Today, I was proud to join NYS Assemblymember Valdez, NYC Council Member Avilés, and 27 city, state, and federal officials to call for his immediate release.
Republicans are using kids as a smokescreen for what Big Tech lobbyists want: a national surveillance program to harvest our data with zero protections for people and their privacy.
We must fight this dangerous expansion of surveillance technology.
Thank you to all our neighbors who joined us for yesterday’s town hall—it was our largest district town hall ever!
NY-14, I love you and I’m fighting for you.
Trump's economy is being held up by a massive AI bubble.
A recent study found that of 300 companies that owned generative AI tools, 95% reported zero return on their investments.
We will not entertain a bailout of these companies should this bubble pop.
