10 years ago, 49 innocent lives were stolen during a mass shooting at Pulse Nightclub in Orlando. Today, we honor their memories by condemning hate in all forms and continuing the push for gun safety solutions that will keep our communities safe.

Because Republicans in Congress refused to shut down this slush fund, the administration continues to move forward with their attempt to steal $1.8 BILLION from American taxpayers to reward individuals that attacked police officers. It’s beyond shameful.

The president may have doubled his net worth since returning to office—but American families are falling further and further behind because of his disastrous war and failed economic policies. They deserve so much better.

“Prices have soared in particular on a lot of things Americans buy every day, including coffee, lettuce and more.” American families continue to pay the price for Republicans’ disastrous war in the Middle East.
