Americans have the right to express their views without being killed. We should know that we are upholding civil liberties. The Department of Homeland Security and ICE should be investigated. My speech on the Senate floor ⬇️
Pam Bondi has sued Washington state to get sensitive voter data. I’m standing strong against efforts to undermine our voting system. Democracies don't grow on trees. They need to be protected, defended, and fought for. My letter to AG Bondi ⬇️

#BlackHistoryMonth is a time to celebrate the immense contributions of Black Americans to our society, culture, and politics. We also recommit ourselves to fighting racial inequities and ensuring equality for all Americans.

Today the Senate refused to give a blank check to fund DHS and ICE for the next year. We rejected President Trump’s 40% cuts to health care research and mental health programs and instead invested in them. (1/2)
Voting by mail is safe and secure. A new USPS rule could delay postmarks, preventing mail-in voters’ ballots from being counted. I’ll continue to push back against any actions that would undermine our elections or make it harder to vote. My letter to the Trump Administration⬇️

Today, on International Holocaust Remembrance Day, we honor the memory of the six million Jewish victims of the Holocaust and millions of other victims of Nazism. May we never forget these atrocities.
International Holocaust Remembrance Day: We Remember.
When a federal officer kills a U.S. citizen amid a pattern of unlawful enforcement practices, there must be accountability and change. I will not vote for additional funding for DHS or ICE this week.
President Trump has crossed the line. Americans will not stand for masked, armed troops roaming their neighborhoods. ICE is not trained in this capacity and should not be on streets. This incident should be investigated immediately and not politicized by the President.
NEW: Man fatally shot by federal agents in Minneapolis identified as 37-year-old ICU nurse Alex Jeffrey Pretti, family members tell the AP.
The new Clark College Advanced Manufacturing Center in Ridgefield is open! With over $3 million in federal support, the Center will provide more opportunities for Southwest Washington residents to gain the skills they need to land good-paying jobs.

Today, we honor Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., a legendary civil rights leader, drum major for justice, and American hero. As we face new attacks on our civil rights, Dr. King's legacy inspires us to fight against injustice, stand for equality, and work together to defend hard-won freedoms.

I see the President released a one-page health care framework today. Mr. President, today is the end of open enrollment. 80,000 people in Washington state are at risk of losing their health insurance. We need more than a one-page plan.
