We have impeachment for a reason:
For a man who would sell out his country for a political favor,
Who would threaten the integrity of our elections,
Who would invite foreign interference in our affairs,
Who would undermine our national security,
For a man like Donald Trump.

It’s enormously important that the country understand exactly what the President did.
When he sought to coerce an ally into helping him cheat in the next election. And that he’s at it still.
We have proved our case. The Senate should find him guilty, and remove him from office. twitter.com/facethenation/…

There’s no basis to expand the travel ban except to block immigrants and refugees.
America has been a beacon for generations of immigrants from all around the world, and they have helped build our nation.
This is discrimination, pure and simple. We can’t let it stand. twitter.com/JoeNeguse/stat…

The Trump Administration's attack on health care continues, this time with an effort to turn Medicaid into a block grant.
Medicaid block grants have been a far right dream for years.
If allowed to go into effect, this will mean vulnerable Americans lose their health care. twitter.com/nytimes/status…

If Senators have more questions about the President's motives, they can ask someone who has first hand knowledge:
They can call on John Bolton to testify. twitter.com/thehill/status…

An Arizona law making it harder for people to cast their ballot has been found to violate the Voting Rights Act.
It’s an important victory in the fight against voter suppression.
Every eligible voter should be able to cast a ballot. It’s that simple. twitter.com/azcentral/stat…

The President’s misconduct poses a particularly acute danger because it goes to the very heart of our democracy.
He sought to cheat in an election by soliciting foreign interference.
That’s why he was impeached, and why he must be removed. pic.twitter.com/vvfZ3xROnF

We all knew this was coming.
After a massive tax cut for the wealthy that lead to trillion dollar deficits, Trump now says it’s time to look at cuts to Social Security and Medicare.
Once again, he wants working Americans to pay the bill for corporations and billionaires. twitter.com/arappeport/sta…

Martin Luther King, Jr. led the fight for racial equality and economic justice.
His strength and moral courage challenged us to live up to our ideals, and inspired generations of new leaders.
Today, and every day, we commit to honoring his life and carrying on his legacy.

It appears if Congress wants to get a full answer on the justification for the Soleimani strike, or other decisions by the President that bring our nation to the brink of war, we need to pay to attend a Mar-a-Lago fundraiser
Or we can insist by passing the War Powers Resolution. twitter.com/washingtonpost…

More results are in from the Republican tax cut:
The big banks saved $32 BILLION in taxes while enriching shareholders and laying off workers.
Which means it's working exactly as everyone predicted. twitter.com/business/statu…

Texas Democrats are launching an aggressive operation to register voters and defend their constitutional rights.
The GOP’s voter suppression is a flawed and unethical strategy. In 2020, we must make it a failed strategy.
Everyone must have a voice in our democracy. twitter.com/ABCPolitics/st…

Today, the House did its duty.
Because American voters, not foreign powers, decide our elections.
Because a president cannot abuse his power to cheat in an election, and then obstruct Congress's investigation.
The people want a fair trial in the Senate. Let’s hope they get it.

Trump, who famously stiffed his workers and contractors, has now made it easier for other companies to do the same.
California serves as a model for protecting against wage theft. Now we need to strengthen labor laws across the country, so that all workers can be treated fairly. twitter.com/latimes/status…

Trump is asking the court to strike down the entire Affordable Care Act.
If he gets his way, 20 million Americans would lose insurance.
People with preexisting conditions would lose all protections.
House Democrats were elected to protect your healthcare.
And we will. twitter.com/realDonaldTrum…

Many of our Democratic freshmen served in military and other national security roles, as was evident in this week's debate about war powers.
As Rep. Slotkin said, “If our loved ones are going to be sent to fight,“ the American people, though their legislators, should have a say. twitter.com/RepSlotkin/sta…

The Founders gave Congress, not the President, the power to declare war.
For too long, Congress has abdicated its responsibility.
If there was ever a time to reclaim our constitutional power, it is now.
When the nation has such a reckless man at the helm. twitter.com/cnnbrk/status/…

The former GOP congressman who @ElaineLuriaVA beat in 2018 is running again and he has some complaints about “these girls” with national security backgrounds.
“These girls” are some of the brightest, toughest, most capable leaders in Congress.
And they’re not going anywhere. twitter.com/ElaineLuriaVA/…

The Founders gave Congress — and only Congress — the power to declare war.
A decision which could imperil so many should not be left to the whims of one impulsive man.
