National Gun Violence Awareness Day is a reminder that every day, we lose far too many lives to the gun violence epidemic.
The best way to honor those we’ve lost is by enacting policies to end this senseless violence and save lives.

BREAKING: Senate Republicans approved billions of dollars for ICE with no strings attached. Their bill also:
❌ Doesn’t make any reforms to ICE to stop violence in our communities
❌ Doesn’t prevent Trump from bringing back his ‘beautiful’ $1.8 billion slush fund
Reposted byCongressman Don Beyer
We’ve seen the brutality of ICE in our community, and I will not vote to give them billions dollars more. Instead, we could use all that money to pay for healthcare and lower the cost of gas, rent, and groceries.

Federal agents killed two American citizens in Minneapolis. Tear-gassed and brutalized families. Detained thousands of children and pregnant women.
How do Republicans respond? At nearly 5AM they passed $70 billion more for ICE, no questions. No reforms. No accountability.
Trump is abusing insider knowledge and his policymaking power to personally profit from the presidency.
This self-enrichment is wrong and unethical.
Congress must act and ban stock trading by senior government officials, including the president and Members of Congress.
Bill Pulte's only apparent qualification for his DNI appointment is a record of abusing federal resources to target Trump's political opponents.
I asked Secretary Scott Bessent, who testified that he told Pulte he’d kick his rear end, if he’s looking forward to working with him:

Questioned deceitful Treasury Secretary Bessent about enabling one of the most corrupt deals in American history, giving Trump a license to steal. The type of immunity from IRS audits granted to Trump is not available to anyone else. American families suffer while Trump & his gang enrich themselves.
A year ago in @waysmeanscmte.bsky.social, I asked Secretary Bessent about our economy under President Trump.
Since then, unemployment has risen. Inflation is up too, with prices outpacing wages.
This administration might not care, but the American people do.

On the Trump Administration’s work to reduce costs vs. what they did instead:

The Trump Administration can call this a golden age economy all they want but people know the truth every time they look at how much is left in their bank account.
Ranking Member @neal.house.gov:
NEW: 4 Republicans just joined all Democrats to pass an Iran War Powers Resolution and put an end to this reckless, illegal war.
I urge my colleagues in the Senate to pass this swiftly. Ending this war is a moral imperative.
RFK Jr. is completely unfit to lead the Department of Health and Human Services.
Not only is he wholly incompetent, but his attacks against mental healthcare directly contradict modern science and evidence-based medical practices that millions rely on.
In partnership with @alexandriavagov.bsky.social, we dedicated a memorial honoring the 67 lives lost in last year's midair collision over the Potomac.
Grief is a reminder that love doesn’t end, and I hope this space offers a place to remember and feel close to those who are deeply missed.
Happy Pride Month!
It’s always important to celebrate the joy and perseverance of the LGBTQ+ community, but especially now when the extreme right continues to vilify LGBTQ+ people in an attempt to undermine their rights and equal protection under the law.
In the United States, criticizing the government is not a crime. It’s a right protected by the First Amendment.

Trump’s latest EO asking AI companies to voluntarily provide early access to models is not sufficient.
It mirrors a broader pattern of creating a wild west environment, rather than ensuring safe and responsible AI governance to protect the American public.
My statement:
The Trump administration continues to enable the wealthiest individuals and corporations to dodge paying their fair share of taxes.
While corporations have avoided $40 billion in taxes, everyday Americans are struggling to afford basic needs. Unconscionable.

As Republicans continue to refuse to rein in the President, thousands of small businesses are closing their doors for good.
Main Street America and the American Dream should not be casualties of Trump's illegal war.
Reposted byCongressman Don Beyer
This is dangerous for our national security.
Instead of starting costly new wars, Trump should focus on doing the basics.
