The IDF detained numerous American citizens, including @bradlander.bsky.social, in the West Bank, simply for participating in the olive harvest. All while turning a blind eye to settler violence against Palestinians there. Pass the Stop The Settlements Act now.
I’ve been released from IDF custody with a “warning,” apparently because of my public profile (I told them I wasn’t even a congressmember yet, just a nominee). But several dozen rabbis & participants harvesting olives with me are still in detention.
This treatment of an American journalist is disgraceful, and the Netanyahu government's response is unacceptable. Such scenes of violence are frequent amid the illegal expansion of Israeli settlements into Palestinian territory.
Masked Israeli settlers attacked Palestinian villagers on Friday, setting olive groves on fire and slinging rocks. Caught in the attack was Post photographer Heidi Levine. “They just kept kicking me and kicking me, like probably 50 times,” Levine said. https://wapo.st/4yt6dHY
Two years ago, Donald Trump and Republicans pledged to lower costs, but families are now facing even higher costs than before. In my district in Northern Virginia, those rising prices cost families an additional $4,600 since Trump took office.
A 250-ft arch towering over Arlington National Cemetery would be a sacrilege to those buried there and their families. These men and women served our country honorably. They deserve our respect, not a monument to Donald Trump looming over their final resting place.
After years of hard work, seniors deserve quality care and clear options when choosing their healthcare plan. As Medicare Open Enrollment begins, millions are facing the painful consequences of Trump and Republicans’ Big Ugly Bill: fewer choices, higher

Trump just waived all sanctions on Russia in the Lindsey Graham Sanctioning Russia Act, just as I and others warned. Trump’s latest surrender to Putin again betrays our Ukrainian partners and defies clear congressional intent of legislation passed to punish Russia for its illegal war of aggression.
Trump order just issued from the White House: “I am hereby waiving the application of such sanctions, restrictions, and duties [on Russia] provided for in the Graham Act.” www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...
October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month.   Awareness is where it starts but we must come together to ensure survivors have the support they need.   If you or a loved one need help, contact the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-7233 for resources and support.
Congress expanded Head Start because we know how important those early years are for children's development.   The Trump administration’s efforts to gut this program would take away critical early education, nutrition, and support services from the children who need them most.
Ranking Members @bobbyscott.house.gov and @sanders.senate.gov, joined by nearly 200 Members of Congress, demand that the Trump Administration end its attack on Head Start families and children. abcnews.com/Politics/dem...
Federal employees deserve a fair, independent process to challenge workplace discrimination. I joined @vanhollen.senate.gov, @repkweisimfume.bsky.social, @repgreglandsman.bsky.social and colleagues urging the withdrawal of a proposed rule that would weaken these protections.
The Trump administration’s repeated abuses of power demand transparency and accountability, but DHS is refusing to take even this basic step. Every ICE agent should be equipped with a body camera, and those cameras should be ON. Period.
Scoop: ICE won’t automatically turn on agents’ body cameras, declining a recommendation from Congress’ watchdog. DHS told the GAO it wouldn’t implement a mechanism to start recording if an agent draws their weapon. CBP has this in place. www.washingtonsun.com/immigration/...
Opposition to Trump's vanity arch is growing. I applaud Arlington County’s legal challenge, which rightly confronts the Administration’s illegal attempts to bypass legally required processes to assess the project’s impacts on the local community.
Breaking news: Arlington County sued to block construction of President Trump’s planned 250-foot triumphal arch, arguing that the administration failed to adequately evaluate potential environmental impacts of the project as required by federal law.
Congress foolishly passed legislation granting President Trump expanded tariff powers, hoping he’d use them to help Ukraine. Instead, he’s lifting sanctions on Russian diesel and funneling money into Russia’s economy – money that will help fund its war against Ukraine.
I recently visited Arlington Weaves and got to see the incredible handcrafted work created by individuals with disabilities. This is a great program that helps participants build skills, grow their independence, and earn income from the art they create.
Last year, DOGE cuts cost thousands of federal workers their jobs. Too many are still searching for their next opportunity. These dedicated public servants deserve our support, and I’m grateful to our local partners for helping them get back on their feet.
Indigenous Peoples' Day celebrates the culture and resilience of the native stewards of this land.  Our nation is better when we honor our shared history, and shared responsibility for this beautiful country we call home.
