I’m relieved that my friend Ilhan Omar is unharmed after being attacked at a town hall last night. She has a backbone of steel as Donald Trump and his MAGA cronies villainize her at every step. I know she won’t let this incident stop her tireless advocacy on behalf of her district.
On International Holocaust Remembrance Day, we remember the six million Jews who were murdered during one of the darkest chapters of recent history.  Today, and every day, we must recommit to continuing the fight against antisemitism and hate – whether here in the U.S. or anywhere across the globe.
The funding bill passed the House because of Republicans, so now it’s up to the Senate to reject it after federal agents murdered Alex Pretti in Minneapolis. It cannot be business as usual as American citizens are being shot and killed.
This morning, masked, untrained ICE and CBP agents have once again escalated a situation and shot and killed a person in Minneapolis. This rogue agency is out of control. ICE and CBP must immediately leave Minnesota. ICE must be dismantled, and Secretary Noem must be impeached as soon as possible.
Last night, I voted YES on a resolution to assert Congress’ war powers authority and rein in Trump's actions in Venezuela. Every single House Democrat showed up. Every single House Democrat voted YES. We are holding this administration accountable, while Republicans surrender at every opportunity.
Great news: A federal judge just again ruled against Trump’s vindictive, illegal funding freeze for child care and nutrition services for Colorado families. The courts are holding this administration accountable. We must keep fighting this clear retribution against Colorado. buff.ly/LTJmgJb
Republicans want you to believe it's either jobs OR clean air. Here's the truth: Companies break Clean Air laws for extra profit and want a get-out-of-jail-free pass. In turn, Denverites who live and work near the Suncor plant breathe toxic pollution 365 days a year. This has to stop.
The administration’s move to end the use of fetal tissue in NIH research only furthers their anti-science and anti-abortion agenda. Stem cell research is vital for research into regenerative medicine and other cutting-edge treatments. This assault on science will mean fewer cures for those in need.
The National Institutes of Health, the largest public funder of biomedical research in the world, announced that it would no longer support research that uses fetal tissue donated to science after elective abortions.
As co-chair of the Reproductive Freedom Caucus, I will continue fighting with everything I’ve got until every American has the freedom to make their own health care decisions, without political interference
53 years ago today, Roe v. Wade recognized our Constitutional right to abortion care. Four years ago, an extremist Supreme Court stripped that right away. Now, Donald Trump and his GOP allies in Congress are pushing for a nationwide abortion ban.
However, I cannot fund an administration that is bombing multiple countries, threatening allies like Denmark and Canada, and ignoring Congress’s role in authorizing the use of force.
This package includes real and meaningful wins for public health, medical research, working families, and communities in Denver. That includes funding for diabetes research and community health clinics.
Good policy can only do so much when this administration continues to act lawlessly, bypass Congress, and drag our country toward unnecessary conflict while demanding ever-growing military budgets.
Two weeks ago, House Democrats forced Republicans to vote on extending vital ACA tax credits, to address the Republican health care crisis and lower costs after their leadership fought tooth and nail against it. The Senate must now pass it, and Donald Trump must sign it into law immediately.
I just signed the Democratic discharge petition to ban members of Congress, the President, and Vice President from exploiting their position for personal gain.  While Republicans remain silent on Trump’s grifting, this bill will rein in corruption and ban stock trading across Washington.
ICE should be dismantled immediately.  I will not support funding for the Department of Homeland Security when ICE and Border Patrol agents are assaulting protestors, detaining and arresting people with impunity, inciting violence, and shooting and killing American citizens.  Read my statement:
Purple-toned, high-contrast graphic showing two figures side by side. On the left, a woman, Kristi Noem, speaking into a microphone, partially visible. On the right, a masked ICE agent in tactical gear with an “ICE” patch visible on the chest. White overlaid text reads: The Trump administration has weaponized ICE and Border Patrol, turning those agencies into masked, hostile police forces that are terrorizing the American people.
ICE has become a rogue agency that has gone far beyond its original mandate. It should be immediately dismantled.

Furthermore, Secretary Kristi Noem and her thugs have been acting in violation of court orders and in contempt of Congress, and she should be impeached.

An oil refinery boasted about their "record-breaking year"—860,000 barrels a day, $1.2 billion in profit. They don't need a handout to pollute. They need to be held accountable for harming communities. Families shouldn’t have to choose between their health and home to line polluters' pockets.
In Trump’s first year, families spent over $1,600 more on daily necessities while Trump’s family got $1.4 billion richer.   Donald Trump’s priority isn’t making life more affordable for you and your family, it’s exploiting the presidency to enrich himself and his allies.
