The labor movement has changed what it means to be a worker in America. Generations of union members fought for better pay, safer workplaces, and dignity on the job. Their victories have benefited all of us. This Labor Day, we celebrate the workers who keep our country moving a…Mostrar mais

Gloria Steinem was a trailblazing activist, organizer, and journalist — an icon in so many ways. I first met her in the late '90s, when I was a young prosecutor specializing in crimes against women and children and co-founded an organization called Women Count, where our slogan…Mostrar mais

250,000 Americans marched on Washington 63 years ago today. They marched for jobs and for freedom. They marched because they were tired of being told to wait for equality. The March on Washington was a call to action for our nation. Today, we must answer the call once again. Th…Mostrar mais

This week’s Supreme Court decision is another reminder of what we are up against heading into November. They can put more obstacles in our way, but they cannot take away our power. Our answer is to show up, make our voices heard, and turn out in numbers that are too big to rig.

Dolly Parton was a true American icon. First introduced to the world as a "little girl from up in East Tennessee," she became a global superstar. Her career accolades included 11 Grammy awards, an Emmy, an honorary Oscar, and — my favorite — more than 300 million books sent to m…Mostrar mais

Happy anniversary to the best partner I could ask for. I love you so very much, Dougie.

If you want to feel hopeful about our nation's future, spend some time with our young leaders. Thank you, @InspireNOLA, for welcoming me last week. The joy in this room was contagious, and so was the belief these scholars have in themselves and their community.

The Democratic Party needs to get comfortable with a certain kind of ruthlessness.

These are challenging times, but we are not powerless. If our votes did not matter, they would not be working overtime to make them harder to cast. This November, we will show them what happens when millions of Americans turn out in our numbers.

Sixty-one years ago, the Voting Rights Act became the law of the land after generations of Americans refused to accept that the right to vote should depend on who you are. Today, we have a Supreme Court that gutted the Voting Rights Act and a Republican Party that wants to cheat…Mostrar mais

One thing that gives me hope is organizations like the @NatUrbanLeague and the leaders who continue showing up for their communities, especially in moments like this. Thank you for today's conversation and for the work you do every day. Now it's our turn. Check your voter regis…Mostrar mais

Before the president gets on television tonight to peddle lies and conspiracy theories, here is what you need to know: The 2020 election was not stolen. We won, and he lost.

Joan Sebastian Guerrero should still be alive. This is the second time in a week that ICE agents have killed someone who — by their own admission — was not the subject of their operation. Now Sebastian is dead, his killing witnessed by his three-year-old daughter wearing her B…Mostrar mais

I am saddened to learn of the passing of my former colleague, Senator Lindsey Graham. He was full of wit, energy, and charm, and he cared deeply about the Senate and the people of South Carolina. Doug and I are sending our thoughts and our prayers to his friends and loved ones.

The news cycle has moved on since the Louisiana v. Callais decision on April 29, but we cannot.

The President of the United States is threatening to commit war crimes and wipe out a "whole civilization" — all because he started a disastrous war of his own making and had no plan and no strategy for how to end it. This is abhorrent, and the American people do not support thi…Mostrar mais

Congratulations to Coach Cori Close and the @UCLAWBB team on your dominant performance during March Madness and your history-making national championship. To Coach Dawn Staley and @GamecockWBB: We applaud your hard-fought season. Your grit and excellence continues to inspire.

Happy Resurrection Sunday to all those celebrating. May this Easter remind us all of the promise of renewal, the power of faith, and the enduring hope that carries us through even the most challenging moments. Wishing you and your loved ones peace, joy, and quality time together.

Donald Trump votes by mail. But this week, he signed an Executive Order so you can’t. Why? Because he is scared of your power, and he is scared of losing the midterms.

We must be clear eyed about what is at stake with the Supreme Court right now. We cannot allow Donald Trump to hand pick one, if not two, additional justices. The nation's highest court must be stopped from becoming even more beholden to him. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/03/us/politics/tru...Mostrar mais

A few thoughts ahead of the President’s speech tonight.

Today’s Artemis II launch marks a major step forward in space exploration. I have had the privilege of spending time with this crew and seeing their discipline and commitment up close. As they begin this mission, I am wishing them a safe journey and a safe return home. Reid, Vi…Mostrar mais

When systems fall short, people step up. At MidTown Market in Cleveland, I stood with Juanita, Rep. Shontel Brown, and volunteers who are making sure their community is cared for. Now we need leadership that meets them there.

Long before today’s ruling, we knew social media was harming our young people. Teens, parents, advocates, and even casual observers begged tech and elected leaders to take action. While we applaud this decision, we have much more work to do to protect young people online and sup…Mostrar mais

I know so many of us have been struggling as we watch the chaos and cruelty inflicted by the current administration. But while on the road this year, I have been thinking about and asking the question: What makes you proud to be an American? I hope we can hold on to that pride…Mostrar mais

Donald Trump is dragging the United States into a war the American people do not want. Let me be clear: I am opposed to a regime-change war in Iran, and our troops are being put in harm’s way for the sake of Trump’s war of choice. Read my full statement:

🚨 Vice President @KamalaHarris will be joining me tomorrow morning to react to tonight's State of the Union address. Stay tuned.

We love our country. And that love means we do not hand our future over to this President, his administration, and his billionaire friends. We, the people, continue to fight for our future.

I will be back on the road next week in conversation with the wonderful @dopequeenpheebs, Dr. Jessica Knurick, @jemelehill, and V Spehar. See you soon in Cleveland, Indianapolis, Detroit, and Madison: kamalaharris.link/tour

Happy Valentine’s Day to my husband, who shows up for me every step of the way. I love you so very much, Dougie.

In Macon, Georgia, I heard from people who are doing the work of bringing folks together every day. Travis is a local bartender who works to make his space welcoming for people from all walks of life. Thank you, Travis and The Rookery, for the work you do to build community.

The Trump administration’s attempt to indict six Democratic lawmakers was an outrageous abuse of power and perhaps its most brazen attack on freedom of speech so far. We should all be grateful to the citizens serving on this grand jury who saw through what the Trump Justice Depa…Mostrar mais

No one believes this cover up from the White House, especially since they originally defended the post. We are all clear-eyed about who Donald Trump is and what he believes.

Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. loved America. He loved our country so much that he dedicated his life — and in the end, his life was taken — in a fight for our nation's highest ideal: Freedom. Last week, it was my honor to visit the National Civil Rights Museum in Memphis. As…Mostrar mais
