🚨FISA VOTE TONIGHT! 🚨 While you are sleeping, Republicans plan to jam a bill through the House tonight allowing the Admin to spy and collect data for the next FIVE YEARS. No warrants REQUIRED. No real assurances a shady AG, FBI, or DNI director will follow the law. I am a NO!

Congresswoman Valerie Foushee@foushee.house.govApr 16(source)

This bill is an important step to ensure that Congress is legislating prediction markets proactively and properly taking steps to protect our communities. I look forward to continuing to fight for proper regulations surrounding these markets.

Congresswoman Valerie Foushee@foushee.house.govApr 16(source)

Prediction markets are ripe for fraud and insider trading. I’m proud to cosponsor @repcasar.bsky.social and @chrismurphyct.bsky.social’s BETS OFF Act to ban prediction market trading on terrorism, deaths, war, non-financial government actions, and more.

Democrats Sen. Murphy and Rep. Casar have introduced a new bill called the BETS OFF Act. The bill would ban insider prediction market bets on military operations and government actions that have been seemingly occurring during the second Trump administration.

Congresswoman Valerie Foushee@foushee.house.govApr 16(source)

Trump's $1.5 trillion defense budget demand is part of the same lie we have heard our whole lives: our government has money for war, but no money for social services. I'm fighting for legislation to stop these endless wars and put money back into our communities.

Congresswoman Valerie Foushee@foushee.house.govApr 16(source)

Section 702 still allows for violations of the Fourth Amendment against Americans—it’s a gross overreach of power and Congress cannot continue to permit surveillance of Americans without a warrant.

Congresswoman Valerie Foushee@foushee.house.govApr 16(source)

I want to be clear that I will not vote for FISA reauthorization if the bill remains in its current form.

Congresswoman Valerie Foushee@foushee.house.govApr 16(source)

Today, I proudly voted again in favor of a War Powers Resolution to stop Trump’s military action against Iran. Until this bill is passed by Congress, I will continue to fight for its passage in order to protect servicemembers and innocent lives abroad.

I was very proud to secure over $2 million for drinking water infrastructure and PFAS treatment in Orange County through the Community Project Funding process, and I look forward to continuing our work together to deliver for the community.

Congresswoman Valerie Foushee@foushee.house.govApr 15(source)

It was great to meet with Orange Water & Sewer Authority as we continue to work to bring federal funding to Orange County to address the needs of local residents.

Congresswoman Valerie Foushee@foushee.house.govApr 15(source)

As we continue to study the negative effects of data centers and crypto mining operations, I strongly support local communities’ efforts to halt the construction of these facilities and prioritize concerns about water and energy use.

Congresswoman Valerie Foushee@foushee.house.govApr 15(source)

This is great news. I’m glad that local leaders and Apex residents worked together to enact restrictions that the community sees fit. www.newsobserver.com/news/busines...

Apex calls year-long halt to data centers, crypto mining

“Protect the people, protect the character of Apex,” one woman told the town board Tuesday night. “It’s not going to be Apex any longer if you don’t protect that.”

Congresswoman Valerie Foushee@foushee.house.govApr 15(source)

Trump has continued to demonstrate that he is not fit for office, and it’s imperative that this independent commission is established and convenes immediately to assess the mental fitness of the President.

Congresswoman Valerie Foushee@foushee.house.govApr 15(source)

I’m proud to be a cosponsor of @raskin.house.gov's bill to establish the commission required to invoke the 25th Amendment. democrats-judiciary.house.gov/media-center...

Ranking Member Raskin Introduces Legislation Establishing Independent Commission on Presidential Capacity

Washington, D.C. (April 14, 2026)—Today, Rep. Jamie Raskin, Ranking Member of the House Judiciary Committee, introduced legislation establishing a Commission on Presidential Capacity to Discharge the ...

Congresswoman Valerie Foushee@foushee.house.govApr 15(source)

I’m cosponsoring @velazquez.house.gov's War Powers Resolution to reestablish constitutional authority and stop yet another disastrous war initiated by Trump.

Congresswoman Valerie Foushee@foushee.house.govApr 15(source)

Trump’s ongoing military blockade is another page in America’s disastrous attempts to instigate regime change in Cuba. This Administration’s actions abroad are completely out of control and put innocent civilians at risk.

Congresswoman Valerie Foushee@foushee.house.govApr 15(source)

Communities of color, immigrant communities, activists, and political dissenters bear the brunt of surveillance abuses—Congress cannot allow this continued violation of the rights afforded to every American under the Constitution.

Congresswoman Valerie Foushee@foushee.house.govApr 15(source)

I will not vote in favor of reauthorizing FISA while Section 702 continues to permit violations of the Fourth Amendment. This section in particular allows the government to collect, search, and purchase personal information and private communications of Americans without a warrant.

Congresswoman Valerie Foushee@foushee.house.govApr 14(source)

While federal funding cuts have hurt scientific research in our district, I’m glad to support efforts that provide essential care to people across the country.

Congresswoman Valerie Foushee@foushee.house.govApr 14(source)

I had the pleasure to visit United Therapeutics in Durham to learn more about their work in developing lifesaving medicine and technology to address lung disease.

Congresswoman Valerie Foushee@foushee.house.govApr 14(source)

Trump’s blockade of Iran’s ports is not the way to reach an agreement that ensures long-term peace in the region. Trump's actions in Iran are not advancing our priorities and threaten innocent civilians. Congress needs to pass a War Powers Resolution immediately. www.politico.com/news/2026/04...

Allies try to puzzle out US blockade of Iran

President Donald Trump is trying to ramp up the pressure on Tehran — but allies and officials are scrambling to understand how the blockade will help.
