My dad took me to visit the Dachau concentration camp when I was ten. In high school, he urged me to read Peter Singer's The Life You Can Save. Today, he sometimes gets frustrated with my strong moral views but I think he only has himself to blame. Lucky to have such a father.

Just yesterday, after struggling to cancel my gym membership online, I went in person and waited in line with someone else who's struggled for months to cancel theirs. I found 100s of similar stories online. Thankfully, @POTUS is working to address this corporate theft. 1/2

Florida, today’s the day. Go vote IN PERSON! DO NOT MAIL your ballot today—it’s too late. Vote by Mail ballots must be *RECEIVED* by your county’s Supervisor of Elections office by 7pm today. You can drop them off there in person but do not wait until the last minute. Let’s go!

Very glad I got to speak alongside the amazing @HalieSoifer at the @USJewishDems Florida Chapter meeting tonight. Almost 100 people signed up to join this event with less than two weeks notice (in Florida summertime!) The backlash to GOP extremism is coming.

During COVID, big meat companies argued that our lawsuits to protect consumers and workers should be dismissed because a Trump admin Executive Order designated their operations as essential to US national security. Now we have confirmation that these companies drafted the order.

Top U.S. meatpacking companies drafted the executive order issued by President Trump to keep meat plants running and convinced his administration to encourage workers to stay on the job at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. The latest by @leahjdouglas

Thrilled to work with @MatthewStrugar on this case. Since we both donated our kidneys to strangers, I think we may have the lowest kidney-to-lawyer ratio of any legal team in history.

So I raised over $1000 from a Tweet about Taylor Swift. The people have spoken. They demand more celebrity content. And who am I to deny that from them?

Some food marketing claims like "all natural" and "humanely" raised animals are misleading consumers, according to a wave of lawsuits by advocacy groups. They argue that Big Food has exploited a regulatory vacuum in the U.S. and needs more oversight.

Was great to be in DC last week with my fellow Florida Jewish Dems and national Democratic Party leaders. Florida has become the new home of antisemitism and right wing extremism in America, but it was the home of a lot of Jewish Democrats first, and we're not going anywhere.

Looking forward to a Swift defeat of extremism in Florida this November. This is not a red state. The GOP is in trouble trouble trouble.

Today is my first fundraising deadline—one of the most important days of my campaign. I want to make clear from the outset that we are going to defeat Republican extremism in Florida and flip this seat. It would mean a lot if you could chip in here.

In some positive news, these floating factory farms are now almost completely banned along the entire west coast of the US. Kudos to all the advocates who have been working on this issue for years.
