From redrawing Congressional seats to eliminate Black representation, to restricting vote-by-mail, we know that there's nothing they won't do to clutch onto absolute power.

Donald Trump, Republicans in Congress, and the far-right Supreme Court are doing everything they can to erode our democracy.

With less than two months until Election Day, Trump has spread confusion and chaos in our voting system by restricting vote-by-mail.

Donald Trump wants us to fear our government. He wants us divided, blaming each other and not noticing what he's doing to our institutions and our democracy. We have to stand up to his threats and fight for freedom, equality, and safety for all Americans.

Mifepristone is safe and effective, and abortion care is health care. Republican-led states like Louisiana are trying to restrict access to the abortion pill nationwide, infringing on individual states' rights to defend the freedom for women to choose. politico.com/news/2026/09/0…

I'm proud to earn the support of the Teamsters! I am committed to standing with the Teamsters in the fight to protect union jobs and support working people.

And yet Republicans continue to stand with Trump or stand as he makes a mockery of the American presidency.

From the Qatari Air Force One, to insider trading on Truth Social, to a massive and wasteful White House ballroom, Trump's corruption and vanity are on display for all to see.

Donald Trump has spent nearly a quarter of his second term on the golf course at a cost to taxpayers of over $180 million, yet he wants to take away holidays from hardworking Americans.

It was great to see so many Bronx families at the Concourse Village Family Day celebration ahead of the start of the school year.

On the eve of the midterms, Donald Trump is trying to suppress Democratic votes and erode our democracy with his executive order to restrict vote-by-mail.

He compelled the Postal Service to implement a system that will be riddled with errors — a whistleblower just reported that a single scanning error could deny tens of thousands of voters from receiving their mail ballots.

And the Supreme Court just cleared the way for him, choosing to hand more power to Trump over protecting our democracy.

An otter was just spotted in the Bronx River for the first time in a century. That's what happens when we actually invest in cleaning up our environment. The Trump administration wants to gut the investments that made this possible.
