Today, Republicans in Congress demonstrated their commitment to “fiscal responsibility.” The first bill advanced by the GOP adds $114 billion to the deficit — by allowing the super wealthy to cheat their taxes while everyone else pays. Corporate lobbyists are popping champagne.

Inflation has slowed for six months, providing families more breathing room. The Fed needs to take this data into account and not drive the economy off a cliff with more extreme interest rate hikes.

Republicans voted to raise the debt ceiling for Trump — not once, not twice, but 3 times. But now there's a Democrat in the White House, they don't want to raise it again. It’s a con to create economic chaos, and we shouldn’t fall for it.

The violent attack on democracy in Brazil is eerily reminiscent of the insurrection on January 6th. The people of Brazil voted in a free and fair election and deserve a peaceful transfer of power. I condemn this violence and stand in solidarity in defense of democracy.

@BankofAmerica  and @Zelle are apparently failing customers again, with money somehow disappearing from accounts. This should be fixed immediately and customers should be compensated. I’ve called out serious fraud issues on Zelle and this is their latest failure.

Speaker McCarthy and extremist Republicans are running a con game. The Republican plan for the debt ceiling is about protecting the wealthy and the well-connected from paying their fair share in taxes—nothing more and nothing less. My @BostonGlobe  op-ed:

My heart is truly broken by the horrific videos released from Memphis. Tyre Nichols should be alive. Tyre should be home with his family tonight. I stand with his family, friends and community in the demand for justice.
