CALL OUT THE LIES
ICE is gunning down and murdering American citizens exercising their Constitutional rights. And they--and their enablers at DHS--are lying about what we can all see with our own eyes. The Trump regime has given themselves authority to murder ANY American and then will defame them as a domestic terrorist. This is what MAGA and the Republicans have done to our country, all to protect an adjudicated rapist and pedofile protector
NO THRONES. NO CROWNS. NO KINGS.
On October 18, millions of us are rising again to show the world: America has no kings, and the power belongs to the people.
Join your fellow patriots to stand up to the Trump regime's fascism, lawlessness, and hate. Lift your voice in support of our democracy and the rule of law.
We will rally in front of the Yates County Building at 3:00pm. Bring your best signs, a chair if needed, and your thirst for democracy.

Republicans Continue to Vote to Take Away Your Hard-Earned Benefits
Senate and House Republicans are continuing their quest to pass a cruel, reckless budget proposal that robs hard-working Americans of the benefits that we have spent our lives earning and paying for. The budget includes billions of dollars in cuts to Medicaid, which over seven million New Yorkers rely on. With these votes, Republicans--including Claudia Tenney, NY-24--make very clear that our health and wellbeing mean nothing to them if it stands in the way of giving corrupt billionaires and corporate donors trillions of dollars in tax breaks.
This is what voting for Republicans gets you.
Trump Always Chickens Out
The TACO acronym perfectly describe Trump's tendency to make reciprocal tariff threats, only to later delay or cancel them as he folds in the face of opposition. Like all bullies, Trump is a coward afraid of anyone who actually stands up to him.
Everyone now knows that he will back down when challenged --about his tariff war that is hurting American businesses and consumers and about deporting legal immigrants doing necessary work.
The lesson? Stand up to Trump and his corrupt, incompetent cronies and help protect America from authoritarianism.
National Day of Mourning on January 9
President Jimmy Carter, 1924-2024
Rest in peace, Mr. Carter. Your lifetime of service, compassion, patriotism, and community will never be forgotten. You, together with your wife Rosalynn, leave behind an enduring legacy that espouses the best of America and the Democratic Party. It is fitting that the flags over Washington, DC will fly at half mast in your honor while a convicted criminal and adjudicated rapist who represents the worst of America is sworn in to occupy the Oval Office. All Democrats join together to celebrate your life of integrity and service.
Thank You, Vice President Kamala Harris!
Thank you for your superlative work as our Vice President, for running an amazing and inspiring campaign for President, and for presiding over the peaceful transfer of power with grace, class, and dignity (traits totally lacking in your Republican colleagues). Thank you for being willing to stand up to the fascism, criminality, and corruption of the Republican Party and the racist, hateful MAGA movement that is working to destroy this country. We look forward to supporting you in whatever you choose to do next!
Thank You, President Biden!
First and foremost, we all owe President Biden an enormous debt of gratitude for the unparalleled progress he has delivered over the last four years. He has been one of the most effective and consequential Presidents to ever lead our nation. Joe represents the best of America--patriotism, dedication, compassion, empathy, and an unshakable faith in the potential of the American people.
Thanks, President Biden, for always working to make things better for all Americans! You will be greatly missed and history will be very, very kind to you.
Economic Opportunity
Economic Opportunity
Democrats have created millions of good-paying jobs over the last three years, helping our country, state, and county recover from the pandemic. But more must be done to ensure economic security for all. This includes protecting Social Security and Medicare--programs YOU pay for--from attacks by extremist MAGA Republicans.
Reproductive Rights
Reproductive Rights
The overturn of Roe v. Wade stripped reproductive freedom from many people. We will work to keep New York a safe haven for access to abortion, birth control, fertility treatments, and other forms of reproductive healthcare currently under attack across the country.

Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries: Dems to reject Trump-backed policy provisions in CR
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) said Thursday that Democrats will reject any short-term spending bill that includes Trump-backed policy provisions or kicks the issue of 2025 spending into next year. Jeffries noted that Republican leaders in both chambers have already backed legislation, known as the Fiscal Responsibility Act (FRA), that set government spending levels for both fiscal 2024 and 2025 and are now walking away from that deal at the risk of a shutdown.
