This bill is literally taking food out of the mouths of children to give tax breaks to millionaires. It's wrong and it's immoral.
I'm urging all my colleagues to vote no so we can start over and work together to deliver a responsible, bipartisan spending bill.

An American icon. He changed the landscape of an entire genre while creating his own. He made every living artist up their game. He made you feel a season.
Best of all, he was ours.
Love you Brian Wilson.

Aretha Franklin was born OTD in 1942.
The Blues Brothers (1980)
Mrs. Murphy was Aretha's only fictional movie role. Unsurprisingly, The Queen of Soul gives a blistering performance, pink slippers and all, which introduced her to a younger audience and reinvigorated her career.
