🚨Statement Alert🚨 In response to the Senate Parliamentarian’s ruling on a pathway to citizenship through reconciliation, @AnaMariaArchil2 , co-executive director of the Center for Popular Democracy, issued the following statement:
“Today, the Senate Parliamentarian once again issued a misguided advisory opinion against the inclusion of a pathway to citizenship in reconciliation. However, there is precedent and a strong rationale for the immigration proposal to be included in the reconciliation bill."
If Democrats, who control the Senate, House of Representatives, and the White House choose to follow this advisory opinion, they would be shutting the doors to millions of undocumented immigrants who call this country home.

The first millennial to run for president should have reflected the overwhelming millennial desire for climate transformation and justice.

Instead, @PeteButtigieg and his campaign has chosen to use and abuse Iowa POC voters like a cheat code in a video game.

1/
@PeteButtigieg Iowan people of color worked hard to show up against all obstacles. They overwhelmingly chose @BernieSanders more than any other candidate, by far.

Instead of improving for New Hampshire, @PeteButtigieg knocked on the Democrats door to demand minimizing POC votes.

2/
@PeteButtigieg @BernieSanders When confronted by Black voters moved by tragic personal experiences to question @PeteButtigieg's policies, Mayor Pete looked them in the eye and told them he doesn't want their vote.

So they didn't give it to him. And now he wants them erased.
