Senate Judiciary Pauses Nominations for Impeachment Trial
The Senate Judiciary Committee won’t meet until after the impeachment trial of President Donald Trump has concluded, Chairman Lindsey Graham said amid calls by Democrats to halt judicial nominations during the period.

Kamala Harris
It would be wholly inappropriate for the Senate to advance any judicial nominee who Trump nominated while he’s on trial. This is a win for our democracy.

In Indian Country, a Crisis of Missing Women. And a New One When They’re Found.
The federal government is trying to catch up with a crisis of missing Native American women. But no one is addressing the problems that arise when they’re found.

Kamala Harris
Far too many Native women are dying and disappearing, their cases going unreported, unsolved, or untouched by law enforcement. We must speak out for them—and be there for those who return home.

Kamala Harris
Trump and Republicans jammed through a trillion-dollar giveaway to the top 1% and the wealthiest corporations.
It couldn’t be more clear: this tax scam did little to help working families. It must be repealed.

A Pennsylvania bill would require death certificates for fertilized eggs that never implant in the uterus
About half of all fertilized eggs never implant in the uterus, and are instead shed through the menstrual lining, where they're undetectable.

These lawmakers need to take a lesson in biology before trying to pass laws that interfere with women’s decisions about their own bodies.
