Friendship bots, as I mentioned before, are poison for our kids. We can outlaw them writ large, or we can outlaw them for kids.

I think there is some low-hanging fruit that is not particularly complicated. The deepfake threat is already real… that's a pretty easy one to deal with, right? You could just outlaw them in politics, or require clear identification or…

It might be the end of our democracy if the people beg on both sides of the aisle for us to do what we've done with every complicated new technology in the history of this country since the industrial revolution – regulate and control it…

Families should be able to trust that when they send their kids to school, they will be in a safe learning environment free from physical abuse.

DHS is also required to follow the ‘Detained Parents Directive’ (DPD), even in its weakened state, to ensure that parents are not unconstitutionally deprived of their child.

As fathers, I hope we can both agree that children should not have to witness their parents being brutally arrested for civil immigration offenses.

“This seems to be the last issue that Congress should be dealing with, and I think it shows how out of touch Republicans are.”

“seeks to preserve the exploitative model of college sports.”

This bill protects the billions of dollars that coaches and sports industry executives are making over the suppression of compensation for some of the most highly valued athletes in the world.

What this bill does at its core is to protect a system of exploitation.

The problem [Jacob Coxon] articulates - AI companies in a blind race to build a death machine first - can easily be solved.

The war in Sudan is now into its fourth year. A straight renewal of the UN Security Council Resolution on Sudan that maintains the status quo will not bring an end to the unimaginable violence and devastation that has affected millions of…

Gold is not the only natural resource being exploited to fund the war... revenue tied to gum arabic production is small relative to gold, but profits from its sale and control over of trade networks now help sustain the conflict.

Artisanal and small-scale gold mining (ASGM) operations account for approximately 80-90% of Sudan’s gold production.

Restrictions meant to disrupt transactions at the point of sale must be combined with a coordinated effort to restrict access to the precursor chemicals that enable unregulated gold extraction in the first place.

Any resolution put forward to renew sanctions pursuant to United Nations Security Council Resolution 1591 (2005) should also prohibit the export or transfer of precursor chemicals used in Sudan’s artisanal mining industry, target the…

When you are pulling parents away from school bus stops, when you are intentionally traumatizing kids, when you are targeting immigrants who are here legally, you aren’t here to support Danbury.

“Today’s decision is devastating for thousands of our neighbors who have lived and worked in our communities for years and just had the rug pulled out from under them. Now that the Supreme Court has rubberstamped the racist policies of…

“It’s just shocking this was a 5-4 ruling. The plain language of the Constitution is clear, and the fact that four justices chose to willingly ignore the Constitution in order to give Trump a total victory is a sign that this court is…

“It’s hard to decide what’s worse: accepting a $400 million bribe from a foreign government or spending a billion dollars in American taxpayer money to put gold plating on that bribe,”

If you know in your heart that it is corrupt, that it is wrong, then you should say something about it. Because, the war might be continuing, not just because of incompetence, but because the president has found a way to make money.

Trump spending all his time on this BS is the reason why Americans’ gas and grocery prices are so high.

Children deserve competent representation by attorneys who practice at the intersection of child welfare and federal immigration law, but Americans also deserve to know why their federal dollars are being doled out to Trump’s friends and…

Accordingly, we insist that the Postal Service abandon this proposed regulation and return to its core mission of providing universal postal services to every American. The Constitution and federal law demand nothing less.

There is no evidence, no evidence, zero evidence in this country that there is a problem at scale with people faking their identification in elections.
