You’ve probably heard about big wins under the Biden-Harris administration like fighting climate change & upgrading infrastructure. Here are a few more ahead of the #StateOfTheUnion—and some that may have flown under your radar. Brought to you by a persistent grassroots movement. Written in Elizabeth Warren’s handwriting: The past two ye

By the way: six years ago today, Mitch McConnell banned me from speaking on the Senate floor after I started reading a letter by Coretta Scott King. He was trying to silence a whole movement. Nevertheless, we persisted. We took back power. And we’re using it to make real change.

With exactly two weeks left until Election Day, I want to talk about four candidates I’m very happy to support—and why:
I’m proud to endorse Peter @WelchForVT. From lowering the cost of prescription drugs to fighting the climate crisis, he’s been a trusted partner to get things done in the House, and I look forward to continuing to fight by his side in the Senate. A photo of Peter Welch next...
Now more than ever, we need champions like @AndreaRSalinas in Congress. She helped Oregon pass one of the nation’s strongest abortion rights laws, and she’s ready to fight her heart out for working families. I’m happy to support her. A photo of Andrea Salinas n...

Here’s what you need to know about how to get your student debt canceled under President Biden’s new plan.
And here are those links:

1. Sign up for email alerts at ed.gov/subscriptions to get notified when applications are live—expected to launch in early October. Apply by Nov. 15, and your relief will come through before payments start up again on Jan. 1.
2. For more information on Public Service Loan Forgiveness and whether your employer qualifies: studentaid.gov/pslf/ and studentaid.gov/pslf/employer-…

We’ve been working towards this day for a long time, and it’s here: President @JoeBiden is taking historic action to cancel up to $20,000 of debt for millions and millions of Americans.
Make no mistake: This is one of the biggest acts of consumer debt relief in American history, and it will directly help hard-working people who borrowed money to go to school because they didn’t come from a family that could write a big check.
By canceling student debt, President Biden is helping working people who are struggling with rising costs. He’s freeing people up to buy homes or start new businesses or start families. And he’s helping narrow the racial wealth gap for borrowers. It’s a big step forward.

Right-wing extremists tried to pull a fast one on us in Kansas last night. They thought they could sneak a ballot measure through a low-turnout primary to clear the way for extreme abortion bans. But they forgot something: we’re fighting back like never before.
The threat was real. Abortion bans in Kansas would leave a huge reproductive health care desert in the middle of the country.

But Kansans turned out in huge numbers and sent a strong message: no, no, NO, we are not going back.

Thank you for staying in this fight.
Kansas sent a message to every anti-choice politician in the country last night. For their sake, they’d better listen.

The stakes couldn’t be higher in this year’s midterms. Today, I’m glad to endorse two more Warren Democrats who will fight to make our government work for everyone.
As State Senate President, @BeccaBalintVT passed one of the strongest reproductive rights laws in the nation, raised the minimum wage, & passed Vermont's first gun safety laws. Becca has the experience, record, & grit to fight for families in Washington. I’m proud to endorse her. A photo of Becca Balint nex...
I'm proud to endorse @KarenBassLA in the race for Los Angeles mayor. She has always fought for reproductive freedom, good-paying jobs for working families, & to protect our planet. I’m thrilled to endorse her to lead the 2nd largest city in the country. A photo of Karen Bass next ...

I want to talk about some very concrete next steps now that Roe v. Wade is gone—where we can go on offense as well as defense in our fight for the right to an abortion. Here’s a quick thread:
In Michigan, @mireprofreedom is fighting to get an initiative on the ballot to protect reproductive freedom—including abortion & contraception—in the state constitution. It could be a blueprint for many other states. Chip in to their campaign if you can: ewar.ren/6br Michigan: Expand protection...
Kansas protects the right to an abortion now—but a measure on the ballot 8/2 would eliminate it & leave a huge reproductive health desert in the middle of the country. Chip in to @Kansans4Freedom if you can to fight back: ewar.ren/r7d Vote NO if you’re in Kansas. Kansas: Hold the line on bl...
