Jeff Merkley for U.S. Senate, Oregon - http://www.jeffmerkley.com

I’m still on the Senate floor after 15 hours

I'm still on the Senate floor — 15 hours in — ringing the alarm bells about Trump's growing authoritarianism.

Americans are standing up because the President is not a king, the law is not a suggestion, and the Constitution is not optional.

But Donald Trump is attacking the free press, deploying the military against peaceful protesters, defying court orders, and weaponizing federal agencies to punish his enemies. Every move is part of his effort to normalize authoritarian power.

Republicans are helping him every step of the way. Families lose. Billionaires win. Democracy hangs in the balance.

I'm fighting back on the Senate floor, but I need you with me. Chip in now to stand with me against Trump's authoritarian takeover and help protect a government of, by, and for the people.
