The Red Scare taught us what happens when fear and political hysteria replace democratic debate. Resurrecting that playbook, and pairing it with calls to deport political opponents, is un-American.

The measure of our immigration system isn’t just whether it enforces the law, it’s whether it does so with humanity, accountability, and respect for life.
Congress shouldn’t be writing ICE a bigger blank check while basic accountability remains unanswered.
A person was killed in an ICE-involved shooting in Maine, state official says. It comes days after a man was fatally shot by an ICE agent in Texas.

Today, the most consequential housing legislation in nearly half a century became law, proving that when we work together, we can deliver for the American people.
This was never about Planned Parenthood, it was always about patients. Essential healthcare should never become collateral damage.
This news means more folks can once again get preventative care, screenings, and services that keep communities healthy.

We spent the past 18 months building bipartisan consensus to help Americans afford a place to call home. The President chose politics, and Congress chose progress.
At midnight, progress becomes law.
I’m proud to have secured $750,000 to help make this vision a reality, and I’m just as proud to continue leading the fight in Congress for bold, bipartisan solutions to America’s housing crisis.
Housing is more than the roof over your head, it’s the foundation for financial security, healthier communities, and economic opportunity.
Yesterday’s ribbon cutting for reStart's upStart Affordable Housing Duplexes is proof that federal investments can deliver real results.
Democracy is built on trust. Trust is build on fairness. And fairness requires independent institutions, not partisan control.
Piece by piece, this administration continues to erode the guardrails that protect our democracy.
As Co-Chair of the new 14thAmendment Task Force, I’m standing with those who believe our constitution should expand freedom, not shrink it. We owe it to future generations to defend this promise with everything we’ve got.
The 14th Amendment changed America. It guaranteed birthright citizenship, enshrined equal protection, and laid the legal foundation for generations of civil rights victories.
Today, 158 years later, that promise is under siege.
Unconscionable.
Innocent children paid the price for decisions that should have never been made in a war that never should have been waged.
Congress cannot look the other way, there must be accountability.
Exclusive: Rush for targets led US commanders to ignore warnings before deadly Iran school strike, sources say https://cnn.it/4pcGpwP
Thank you for the warm welcome and for your unwavering commitment to serving our community.
Great to spend time yesterday with the dedicated team at Seton Center KC .
From their safety-net dental clinic and food pantry to their new children’s mental health program, they’re making a real difference for Kansas City families every single day.
The President promised to end endless wars and lower costs. Instead, his ongoing, unauthorized war of choice is driving up energy prices and making life more expensive for families already struggling to make ends meet.
We’re trusting this man with decisions of war and peace.
Higher premiums. More uninsured Americans. Less affordable care.
This is exactly what happens when Republicans sabotage the Affordable Care Act instead of strengthening it, in order to line the pockets of billionaires.
Trump called making housing more affordable a “big yawn.” I call it one of the most important challenges facing working families.
We passed a bipartisan, bicameral housing bill. It’s time for the President to sign it.
