Jeff Alexander, 65, a meat wrapper, on Kroger closings after $4/hr hazard pay mandate: "To me it's retaliation...they talk about well we appreciate your hard work but when it is time to talk about $ it’s a whole different story" Great story @emrosenberg washingtonpost.com/business/…

There's an old Texas saying: When the going gets tough, the tough go to Cancun. (No, there actually is no such saying).

When Jackie Robinson faced down slurs, spiked cleats, and pitches aimed at his head—and stole home anyway—he didn't only change baseball. He changed the world and paved the way for others, including me. On his birthday, we’re called not only to honor that legacy but build on it.

People are hurting right now. The American Rescue Plan gets economic relief to those who need it, and it gets people vaccinated. We need to pass it into law.

Reminder that billionaires have become $1.1 trillion richer just during this pandemic. It’s time for a wealth tax.

A maskless Marjorie Taylor Greene & her staff berated me in a hallway. She targeted me & others on social media. I'm moving my office away from hers for my team's safety. I've called for the expulsion of members who incited the insurrection from Day 1. Bring H.Res 25 to a vote.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
twitter.com/mtgreenee/stat… Rep. Greene also posted a video where Rep. Bush can be heard speaking to Rep. Greene first. While both claim to be “berated” by the other, the video is inconclusive of either side being berated. However, there’s no known context of the incident prior to Rep. Greene’s video.

Any elected official who participated in the insurrection and/or continues to perpetuate the big lie should be forced to recuse themselves from the Senate impeachment trial.

I know you’re not used to these, but they’re called consequences, Josh. And you’re handling them very poorly. Resign.
