Campaigning in this era

Every day, Ro is working towards a better future for all in Congress. Some days that means advocating for Medicare for All, some days it means speaking out against unjust wars, and some days it means fighting for working-class folks in relief bills. These are challenging times. Due to COVID-…

Working families are expected to save three months of income

Boeing spent over $43 billion on buybacks over the last 10 years. That’s money going mostly to wealthy stockholders, not investing in their workers. Working families are often told that they should keep at least three months of savings on hand for a rainy day. When you’re making minimum wag…

[Take Action] Open a special enrollment period for Obamacare

Over 6 million people filed have filed for unemployment in the last few weeks. Huge percentages of those folks may rely on their employers for health insurance. Leaving them uncovered right now is unconscionable. We just heard some troubling news. The Trump administration is refusing to open…

Listen to the doctors, the public health experts, and the nurses.

Will you become a citizen co-sponsor today?

Last week, we proposed legislation to establish an emergency Earned Income Tax Credit to get cash into the hands of people. Our plan would give a monthly check of at least $1,000 for every American and up to $3,000 for families with children. These are trying and difficult times, but like th…

Insiders.

At 27 years old, I ran for office for the first time. Since part of my platform was opposition to the Iraq War, I could feel the party establishment closing down around me — because I dared to stand for progressive ideals against a Democratic incumbent. At 27 years old, I ran for office for…

Our plan to defeat Donald Trump and create 3 million new jobs

Endless wars
