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.

This is who Dolly Parton was. ❤️
“My dad couldn’t read and write, so I wanted to do something to make him feel part of something special.”
So she did. Dolly turned her love for her dad into the Imagination Library, putting more than 330 MILLION books into the hands of children.

Republicans promised kids wouldn't lose a nickel of their SNAP benefits.

Todd Blanche is unfit to serve as Attorney General... and John Cornyn can get his get-back while doing this country a favor.

Let's cut the act.
Republicans don't actually care about what's happening inside Delaney Hall.
People are dying in our custody.
If they were serious about oversight, we'd be holding real hearings on the deadly crisis this administration has created — and how we're going to fix it.
