April 15, 2019 is Tax Day. Do you know where your tax dollars are? Here's a hint: military contractors cost the average taxpayer more than the price of a new Macbook Pro, but public housing costs the average taxpayer less than a curling iron from Wal-Mart. The average American paid...

The president’s budget request, which is legally due on the first Monday in February, will be late this year as a direct result of the government shutdown.

It’s time to end this shutdown once and for all, and it’s time to end the fiction that Americans want or need a wall at our border.

Congress has the power to make things right, but it would take a bipartisan stand against the president.
