Vote Out Republicans Who Gutted Healthcare in the One Big Beautiful Bill

Vote out every Republican who supported the "One Big Beautiful Bill Act."

Restore Power to Gary, Indiana and Investigate Racial Disparity in NIPSCO's Response

Gary, Indiana has been without power for nine days following the August 11 derecho. The predominantly Black city is still in the dark while the majority-white neighboring towns have already had their power restored.

Big Bend National Park

Clarity Act

I’m furious that Trump’s cryptocurrency company, from which he’s already profited nearly $800 million since he returned to the White House, has received the green light to become a bank and potentially make him even more money.
