(1/2) We just completed an unannounced oversight visit at ICE’s temporary holding facility in Chantilly.
We have received reports of overcrowding and long stays at this facility designed to process small numbers of people before they are sent to detention facilities.
In my meeting with the FAA yesterday we discussed reports of failed communications between helicopter and commercial airline traffic at DCA.
I reiterated the need to implement the NTSB’s recommendations related to last year’s tragic midair collision, which is why the House passed the ALERT Act.
The Voting Rights Act of 1965 was a landmark step toward ensuring every eligible American could exercise their right to vote.
We’ve made meaningful progress since then, but the fight isn’t over. I’ll keep working to protect our democracy and strengthen voting rights for all Americans.
The Constitution gives Congress the power of the purse, but Trump keeps violating the law to block funding passed by Congress, including medical research, anti-poverty programs, education funding, and much more.
I introduced new legislation to stop him:

If Trump and Republicans wanted to crack down on fraud and abuse, they wouldn’t close more than 23,000 criminal cases investigating fraud and white-collar crimes.
And they certainly wouldn’t agree to a deal shielding Trump from investigations into potential financial crimes.
The corruption at the FCC under Brendan Carr is another example of the culture of corruption that surrounds Donald Trump and his administration. Carr is a disaster and he should resign or be fired.

More blatant and potentially criminal corruption from Trump, again using his position to line his own pockets.
The worst corruption in American history is playing out every day, and Republicans in Congress are letting it happen.
Shameful and embarrassing dereliction of duty.
So sorry to hear about the passing of Janet Howell. She was a great public servant who worked hard to help Virginians, especially those in need, in addition to being a wonderful person and good friend. Sending out my best to all of her friends and family today.

Trump’s Saudi nuclear deal risks igniting a nuclear arms race in the Middle East.
Marco Rubio warned about these very dangers when he served in the Senate. Now he's flip flopped.
@markey.senate.gov, @merkley.senate.gov, & @beyer.house.gov, and I explain why Congress must reject this reckless deal.
Republican Senators cave to Trump again.
They'll make his personal lawyer the Attorney General without stopping Trump's "license to steal" lifetime audit protection.
Trump and his family will get many millions of taxpayer thanks to Republicans' failure.
Incredible corruption.
Republican senators looked like they were standing up to Trump over his self-serving "settlement."
But a deal between the DOJ and John Cornyn lets Trump keep immunity from owing taxes on any returns filed before May 19.
A potential windfall for Trump worth millions www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...
Donald Trump points to Iran's nuclear program as justification for this war, but he helped create this crisis by walking away from the nuclear deal negotiated by President Obama.
The solution today is the same as it was in 2015: diplomacy, not war.
Democrats passed legislation to lower drug costs by allowing Medicare to negotiate prices.
As if kicking millions of Americans off their health insurance wasn’t enough, the Trump administration now also wants to force seniors to pay more for medication they depend on.

ICE agents are untrained, unqualified, and killing people on the streets. Oversight Dems will investigate every failure that led to these tragedies and hold agents and their leadership accountable.
Reposted byCongressman Don Beyer
ICE under Trump, Mullin, and Stephen Miller is a lawless paramilitary force inflicting violence and chaos on American communities.
We can't accept the killing of innocent people, most recently in Texas and Maine.
ICE is beyond fixing—we should just dismantle it and start over.
The Trump administration is working for Donald Trump, not the American people.
While families are stretching every paycheck just to cover the basics, Donald Trump has never been richer.

“Congressman Don Beyer asked Fairfax County authorities to reject the application for a substation to support a planned data center at Plaza 500 on Edsall Road in a letter released Thursday.”

Now, the Trump administration is withholding those funds, forcing thousands of children to navigate deportation proceedings without legal counsel while further burdening an already backlogged immigration court system.
It's cruel and counterproductive.
www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...
Congress funded legal services for unaccompanied children on a bipartisan basis because due process matters.
Saudi Arabia should never get the tools to build a nuclear weapon, but the Trump administration is pursing a deal without sufficient safeguards.
@repgaramendi.bsky.social, Rep. Brad Sherman, and I urge Congress to reject any deal that puts our national security at risk:
