Jeff: let's get to work in Congress

Robert, As Democrats fought tooth and nail to make historic gains in 2018, one thing became clear: Republicans know each and every dirty trick to steal elections, and they're not shy about using them. That's why Democrats are committed to making elections free and fair again, and why I'm leading the charge with a sweeping plan to fix what's broken in our democracy. Ending dark money thanks to Citizens United . Eliminating partisan gerrymandering. Restoring the Voting Rights Act. Instituting national vote-by-mail. Abolishing the electoral college. These are just some of the reforms I'm backing, because it's time to literally reboot our democracy. Want a perfect example? Look no further than Georgia. Then-Secretary of State Brian Kemp, eyeing a run for governor, purged voters from the rolls and put new voter registrations "on hold". Tens of thousands of voters, denied their constitutional rights. While we pass major...

President Trump is fighting each day against the left’s attempts to indoctrinate our children

The White House • September 17, 2020 President Trump: ‘Our youth will be taught to love America with all of their heart ’ President Trump is fighting each day against the left’s attempts to indoctrinate our children with a radical, misleading, and unpatriotic story of America. Divisive and distorted histories of our country—everything from Howard Zinn’s A People’s History of the United States to The New York Times’ 1619 Project—seek to erase America’s tradition of liberty, free expression, and self-determination from memory. For too long , the left has been winning that fight. For example, even though the 1619 Project has been criticized as inaccurate by multiple prominent historians, it already has been quietly disseminated in 4,500 classrooms across the United States. 🎬 President Trump: We must stop the lies in America’s classrooms Today marks 233 years since the signing of our U.S. Constitution....

Adam Schiff: Take a moment to thank Black Independents

Black Independent I want to take a moment to thank you. Through every challenge, every headline, and every attack thrown my way (of which there are many), you have stood unwaveringly with me. I never take your support and confidence for granted. And while the attacks on our work to uphold the values we share keep mounting, I’m motivated by your continued support and willingness to fight back alongside me. For the sake of our democracy. Our Constitution. Our futures. Donald Trump and his allies will continue to come after me, and anyone else who stands up to him. They hope that their persistent attacks will silence and intimidate others from holding his corrupt regime accountable. But I’m not backing down. I never have, and I never will. I’m so grateful for your support, but as these partisan attacks grow bolder, I need to know you have my back once more. I have an end-of-month fundraising deadline in a few days, and it would mean a lot to earn your support. Will...

Huma Abedin: Where meaningful action begins

Robert, If you’ve ever left a conference wondering what now? — you’re not alone. That’s why I believe so deeply in the Clinton Global Initiative. At CGI, the conversations don’t end when the meeting does. They lead to real partnerships, real commitments, and lasting results. It's a space where people from all walks of life come together to share and take action. If you’re ready to move from intention to impact, I hope you’ll be part of CGI 2025. I’ve seen the power of CGI up close — not just in the headlines, but in the way it brings people together to deliver real solutions. Whether it’s expanding access to health care, advancing gender equity, or mobilizing resources in response to crisis, CGI helps turn shared purpose into measurable progress. That kind of work doesn’t happen by accident. It happens because people show up, bring their full selves, and commit to doing the hard work together. This September, we’ll come together again in N...

Obama Foundation : If you can see it, you can be it

Hi Black Independent, Chicago Public Schools students headed back to the classroom this week, and with the start of the school year comes another year of the Futures Series! Since 2022, The Obama Foundation has partnered with Hyde Park Academy, the high school across the street from the future Obama Presidential Center, to introduce students to industry leaders and cultural icons who inspire them to achieve more than they thought possible. Last school year, Futures Series guests like investigative reporter Samantha Chapman, Jordan Brand CDO Jason Mayden, and Chicago Alderman Ronnie Mosley shared their stories, and for students like Rayshawn Blackman, these moments were life-changing: See the full 2024-2025 line-up The 2024-2025 Futures Series gave Hyde Park Academy Students opportunities to get out of the classroom and into real-world workplaces: At O’Hare Airport, students toured an aircraft and spoke with representatives from across roles at United Airlines to...

Hillary Clinton: 30 years of “women’s rights are human rights”

Black Independents -- When the UN Fourth World Conference on Women met in Beijing in 1995, I wanted to go. If my husband hadn't been president, I would have wanted to go as myself—a lawyer, an advocate. But I knew that if I went as the First Lady of the United States it would carry a message that would resound around the world: The United States is putting its leadership toward advancing the rights of women. When I was working on the speech, which took many weeks, I was really focused on how to break through. I wanted to push the envelope in the speech to state a simple truth: women and girls inherently have the same rights as men and boys. After I got back from the conference, I did a lot of media. I remember a man from Iran calling in to the Voice of America and asking me: "When you say women's rights are human rights, what can you possibly mean?" He was genuinely confused. I said, "I want you to close your eyes and think about all the rights you have. And ...

Rep. Gonzales: An Update from Texas and D.C.

On The Road in TX-23 San Antonio ➡️ Monahans ➡️ McCamey ➡️ Fort Stockton ➡️ Fort Davis ➡️ Alpine ➡️ Marfa ➡️ Sonora ➡️ It's been a great week on the road across South and West Texas! Team Gonzales takes no days off when it comes to working for you in TX-23. PICTURED: Congressman Gonzales meeting with an automotive shop owner in Alpine Relief for Texas Farmers and Ranchers This month, I joined U.S. Department of Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins and Governor Greg Abbott to announce that a $750 million new facility will be built in South Texas to stop the spread of the screwworm. Additionally, through my seat on the House Appropriations Committee, I doubled the initial funding for screwworm eradication efforts in our nation’s agriculture budget. Sterile flies are the fastest, most effective method to eliminate the screwworm. Building a facility here in the U.S. to protect against a screwworm invasion is a key pillar of my bill, the STOP Screwworms A...

Mikie Sherrill : Here's the Deal

Hey, I know my team and I have been emailing you a lot recently asking for your support. But I wanted to take a second to explain why your support matters in this crucial race. Not only is my opponent, Jack Ciattarelli, endorsed by Donald Trump – he’s also a faithful advocate for the most disastrous elements of Trump’s agenda, and wants to implement them here in New Jersey. He was one of the biggest cheerleaders for the Republican price hike bill that will throw hundreds of thousands of New Jerseyans off their health care. And now, Ciattarelli’s being supported by a MAGA super PAC that’s pouring millions of dollars into negative ads that make one false assertion after another about my record and my character. In a race this close and with the stakes this high, we need to have the resources to be able to fight back, and we can only do that with your support. Can you split $10 (or whatever you can) between my campaign and the Voter Protection Project so we can stop our ...

Gavin Newsom: Co-sign my letter to Trump

Robert — I just sent a letter directly to Donald Trump. He started this ridiculous redistricting back-and-forth and he can stop it. If he tells Texas and other red states to stand down, California will too. If he does not, then we are going to fight fire with fire and go directly to the ballot to neutralize his efforts to rig the 2026 election. You can find my letter below. I hope you'll read it and add your name as a co-signer. It's a small and simple act, but it'll send a powerful message of how committed we are to making sure Trump doesn't rig the next election. Add your name as a co-signer to my letter to Trump. ADD YOUR NAME - Gavin Newsom August 11, 2025 President Donald J. Trump The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Ave NW, Washington, DC 20500 Re: Calling Off Mid-Decade Redistricting Efforts Dear Mr. President, I am writing to ask you to call on the governor of Texas and other red states, who are acting on your request to draw new congressional maps through an unpr...
