Why would we give him more power to do the former while trusting him not to do the latter?
We strongly urge our colleagues to read this legislation more closely before Congress makes a major mistake.

Trump is likely to exploit this green light to impose new tariffs—not to help Ukraine, but to escalate his global trade war.
This president has grossly abused trade authorities over and over again, and repeatedly shown willingness to do Putin’s bidding at Ukraine’s expense.
We passed a good bill in the House to sanction Russia and help Ukraine.
The bill offered by the late Senator Graham is not that bill, it is a bill that would give Trump new powers to impose additional tariffs of up to 100% on U.S. trading partners without congressional oversight.
Last year, Donald Trump illegally fired thousands of our dedicated public servants at USAID and the State Department. Our country is worse off for it.
I'm working to ensure these experts can return back to the roles we need them in to protect America’s interests abroad.

The American people cannot afford more of Trump's reckless tariffs, yet Republicans want to hand Trump even more power to leverage tariffs by asserting it's to "defend Ukraine."

I do not expect the current Republican rubber stamp majority to look into this, but majorities change. And there is a clear imperative for Congress to investigate this matter.
We do not know what the request was, who made it, or who the target of the audit or investigation was.
This warning brings to mind Trump's attempts to direct IRS investigations of his enemies during his first term, and his recent agreement with DOJ to permanently exempt himself from audits.
The law in question "prohibits the president, vice president, White House staff and certain agency heads from directly or indirectly requesting that the IRS conduct or terminate an audit or investigation of any particular taxpayer."
A major story here.
A longtime Republican tax expert and Trump appointee was just ousted from a key position at the IRS after warning that the White House was potentially violating federal law.

Trump’s shocking “bombshells” about China are totally bogus.
The fact is our intelligence agencies unanimously agreed that China did not even try to change a single vote in the 2020 election.
Trump releases a bunch of stale, discredited documents to prop up old, debunked election lies but he’s still covering up the Epstein files.

Republicans are trying to pass another cost-hiking budget.
They want to spend billions of taxpayer dollars to rig our elections and fund Trump’s reckless war — but not a penny to lower costs.
You deserve better.

Yesterday, New Dem Vice Chair @carbajal.house.gov, @beyer.house.gov, and @repjimcosta.bsky.social met with local small business owners to hear firsthand how they're being affected by Trump's reckless economic and immigration policies and discuss how New Dems can continue supporting Main Street.
It is long past time for our country to reevaluate its security relationship with the state of Israel.
Today I will vote for Rep. Thomas Massie's amendment to eliminate billions in military assistance funding to Israel.
Here's why:

Todd Blanche is lying. The DOJ STILL has not released all the Epstein Files as required by law. The coverup continues.
Republicans are trying to install Trump lawyer Todd Blanche atop the Justice Department.
His record:
- Epstein files coverup
- Pardons for J6ers who attacked police
- Corrupt Trump slush fund
- Mass purge of career prosecutors
It's awful that he's even being considered for AG.
There's a reason Trump and his allies and cronies are afraid of the International Criminal Court, which prosecutes war crimes, and are trying to destroy it.
It's good that Trump is backing down from his brainless idea, which Marco Rubio previously described as illegal, that would further raise prices.
Unfortunately it comes too late to undo damage to the global economy from Trump's crazed directives. This war is a disaster.
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.
