You clearly do not know me or what I do with my voice. Let me ask you: Would you prefer that I say things just to get applause, or that I use my voice in places where it will actually be heard?

Health care costs up 6% a year (not 38%).Fortune magazine fortune.com/2016/06/21/healt….
CEO compensation skyrocketed while average worker wages stagnated. Not just 2017; it’s 50 year trend: CEO compensation rose 1,000% while workers wages stayed flat (Forbes forbes.com/sites/dianahembre…)

When you pray today, say a prayer for Samar Badawi and all those around the world who are imprisoned for trying to make the world a better place.
I have written a letter to Secretary of State Pompeo demanding that he push the Saudis to release Samar Badawi, Waleed Abulkhair, and all prisoners of conscience in Saudi Arabia. We must stand up to the Saudi monarchy’s flagrant disrespect for human rights and the rule of law.

Watch Lee Gelernt of the ACLU on Rachel Maddow talking about how the government is actually stymieing their efforts to help reunite the families. The callousness, the lack of contrition, the sociopathic attitude is outrageous. Let’s not be silent. #votenov6

I hope the Gov. of AZ will appoint Cindy McCain to fill her husband’s Senate seat. In picture after picture, their mindmeld is obvious. Arizonans, if you agree then lobby for it. There’s a lot of lobbying already behind the scenes. It’s going to be a Republican. I hope it’s her.

By any standards John McCain was a great American, and his spirit will continue to light the way. May his dignity, intelligence, service & basic decency be a standard we all try to uphold. May his family be comforted and his spirit soar. May he be forever blessed. Amen.
