Right wing billionaires and Islamophobes are scared of our movement, and that gives me hope, because it means we are organizing to deliver real change for our working families.

We’re in the fight of our lives in NC, yet $20 MILLION is being spent in a D-primary for a safe blue seat in NYC…. Do you know how many state leg seats we could flip with that investment... Don’t let anyone tell you this type of spending is normal, IT’S NOT!

It's been difficult to come to terms with the fact that their lives were taken by hate — hate that's still tearing up communities like it tore up mine. There is so much work to do in our fight against Islamophobia, but today l would just like to remember Deah, Yusor, and Razan.

No offense but some of y'all talking about this George Santos drag story sound like far-right Republicans yourselves. We can hold someone accountable for aligning with & elevating leaders who target the LGBTQ+ community without ridiculing drag performers. ☕

I’m endorsing @NidaAllam for U.S. Congress in North Carolina's 4th District because she understands the need for an agenda that benefits the working class. That means Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, and a living wage. We need her in the Congress.

There’s a story in Islam of a Bedouin man who was leaving his camel without tying it. The Prophet (PBUH) asked him “Why don’t you tie down your camel?” The man answered, “I put my trust in Allah.” The Prophet replied, “Tie your camel first, & then put your trust in Allah.”

I'm Muslim, a hijabi woman, and an immigrant who speaks English not as her second language but her third. I'm also American, NC public-school educated, and raised by my Southern community. Americans rarely fit neatly into boxes & our elected leaders should reflect our diversity.

The @NCDemParty respect protestors and the right to civic action. We condemn any behavior that mocks or belittles that right. The person shown in the video was not a member of party staff and was asked to stop. We are taking proactive steps to ensure this does not happen again.

Cancel student debt today and borrowers across America would get a nearly two trillion dollar load off their shoulders and into theirs pockets. Millennials could save to buy homes, start families, and jumpstart our economy. Let's get it done, @JoeBiden .

Unbelievable. There are some Dems who want to lower the income eligibility for direct payments from $75,000 to $50,000 for individuals, and $150,000 to $100,000 for couples. In other words, working class people who got checks from Trump would not get them from Biden. Brilliant!
