It's been 16 years since Congress last raised the federal minimum wage. As a member of the @Labor_Caucus, I'm fighting to raise the minimum wage so that ALL workers can make a livable wage. #RaiseTheWage

Engagement
20 posts held, back to 9 August 2025 — the reader has not yet reached the start of this channel’s public history, so older posts may sit further back, unread. Read across 1 page of Telegram’s post history, 20 posts per page.
Nothing published in the last 30 days. ERR and ER are rolling 30-day measures, so there is nothing to compute — we hold 20 posts for this entry, the most recent from 9 August 2025. An engagement rate over an empty window would be a number about nothing.

Lifetime counters from Telegram’s own channel header, read 14 August 2026 — not the date at the top of this page, which is when the subscriber count was last read. Below Telegram’s rounding threshold, so these counts are exact.

Measured directly from 5 videos with a duration reading, out of the posts we hold for this channel — not this channel’s whole posting history, only the sample this register has actually read. An exact reading to the second, taken from the post itself rather than from Telegram’s own rounded chrome, so it carries no ≈ mark.
Recent posts
The courts have confirmed and the message is clear: If you’re born in the United States, you’re a citizen. Any efforts by Trump to take that away are unconstitutional.
Unilateral sanctions kill civilians, as once again demonstrated in a peer-reviewed study. They're not just morally wrong, they also drive migration, damage economic interests, and hurt the US standing in the world. It's past time for us to rethink our sanctions-first approach.
Puerto Rico’s endured decades of financial exploitation including the national debt & PREPA bankruptcy. El apagón is more than just a song - it speaks to the disservice Puerto Ricans experience at the hands of cruel creditors seeking more cash for inflated electricity rates and unreliable services. Puerto Ricans deserve more and Congress must do more!
Speaker Mike Johnson is protecting monsters. Instead of releasing the Epstein files, he’s shutting down Congress to shield Trump and other elite predators. @SpeakerJohnson, are these your Christian values?
Happy 100th to the greatest train station in the country! Our very own Union Station. 🥳
Trump's DHS is unaccountable, unlawful and unconstitutional. Join me this morning at a Democratic Oversight Forum:
As they starve under an Israeli-imposed blockade, Palestinians are being shot at for seeking food and water. I join the Pope as he once again calls for an end to the barbarity in Gaza.
My statement on the anti-immigrant and anti-Muslim vandalism in Little Village:
This trade is about cleaning up the mess left behind by Trump’s immigration agenda. The U.S. illegally deported migrants, many who had legal permission to be here, most with no criminal record. They were held without charges and used as bargaining chips in a deal. This is the legacy of the Trump administration: lying to federal judges, handing billions to DHS, and treating human beings like pawns. This is what auth…
Thank you Jackie Gomez, Ivan Solis and Jeanette Chavarria Torres of @HACIAworks, for joining me at the Hearing with Sec. Duffy and the @HispanicCaucus policy roundtable on transportation and infrastructure. Your voices are valuable in uplifting the benefits of DBE programs for Latino and women owned businesses –now, at risk thanks to Trump.
Trump & the GOP want to defund public broadcasting – a blow to local stations, and the rural & tribal communities that rely on them for trusted information, a sense of connection, and beloved children’s programming. This is all part of a broader effort by Trump to control the media & keep people uninformed, & we must call him out. #ProtectMyPublicMedia
Showing the 12 most recent of 20 posts we hold for @RepChuyGarcia. View and reaction counts are the latest single reading for each post, not a live figure, and a recent post is still accumulating both. A view count marked ≈ was rounded by Telegram before we ever saw it — t.me prints views in full below 1,000 and to three significant figures above, so ≈1,200,000 means somewhere between 1,150,000 and 1,249,999. Unmarked counts are exact. Text is reproduced from the public post preview and truncated for length.
Mentions
Named by 3 registered channels — every channel on the register whose own posts have named this one, by its current username or any other username it currently holds, merged from two separately captured readings of the same fact so a namer caught by only one of them is not missed and a namer both caught is not counted twice. A username this channel has since dropped is not matched — that handle may belong to someone else now, and crediting today’s namer to yesterday’s owner would misattribute it.
Named by
Channels on the register whose posts name this channel's handle.
Names
Channels on the register whose handles appear in this channel's posts.
A mention is a weaker signal than a forward and is counted separately for that reason — naming a channel is not republishing it, and a handle in a post body is easy to place deliberately. The post counts beside each row below are distinct posts in which the handle appeared, from posts we have read on both sides — the “Named by N registered channels” figure above is a different count, of distinct NAMING CHANNELS rather than posts, and is not the sum of the rows under it.

@RepChuyGarcia named 6 handles that resolve to nothing today. That is a fact about the reference, not necessarily a fact about the handle’s history — see the two groups below.
Most of these may never have existed as a live channel at all. A handle a channel names can be a typo, an aspirational name nobody registered, or a channel that was already gone before this one ever mentioned it. Unless a row below is marked evidenced, all we know is that it references a handle that is not a live channel today — not that anything “died”. How this is measured.
Never seen alive
References a handle that is not a live channel — we have no record it ever was one.
