Trump's oil blockade on Cuba is suffocating an entire nation. This is a clear, despotic attempt at regime change, and civilians are paying the price. https://t.co/w0sCyKnrNA

House Republicans just rejected the Senate's deal to end the DHS shutdown. 🤦🏽‍♀️ They would rather let TSA workers go unpaid than sacrifice a single dollar of funding for ICE. It's reprehensible.

Here's a clear message for my Senate Republican colleagues: we will NOT support a bill that disenfranchises millions of American citizens. The SAVE Act is voter suppression. It's a NO.
