Republicans said they want to pass DACA it but then insisted on punishing immigrant communities in exchange for it. If they want it they should just pass it. If they don’t want to pass it they should stop playing games and just say so.

Not enough has been done to research gun violence, so we actually don’t know what would work. Why don’t we have the research? Because the Republicans made a law prohibiting the CDC from researching this (and only this) epidemic.

These are not the best deals.

Republicans control Congress and refused to reauthorize the Children’s Health Insurance Program. The bad faith is still staggering.

So it’s official. Every single Dem

If we are to get a deal done this week it will be without the assistance of the President. So Comgressional Republicans have a clear choice - a shut down or a deal that has already been struck and can win majority support.

We must suspend this alert system until we can be 100 percent confident in its reliability.
