Valerie P.'s ATmosphere Activity
20 recent posts · 35 sponsored · 151 cosponsored
Recent ATmosphere posts, sponsorships, and cosponsorships.
Temporary Protected Status for Haiti has officially ended today after the Supreme Court’s shameful ruling earlier this year.
I stand with all the Haitian immigrants who call the Fourth District home.
Inflated commissary prices often force people in federal custody to be charged more for basic necessities, simply because they have no other place to buy them.
I'm introducing the Stop Prison Price Gouging Act to ensure that prison commissaries are not used for profiteering.
USAID, and the work of its employees, saves lives across the world. I will continue to fight for this agency and all the hardworking federal employees to ensure they can continue this impactful work.
I had the pleasure of meeting with Alliance 4 American Leadership to discuss the local impact of Trump’s gutting of USAID, and how we can work to rebuild the agency.

Speeding contributed to nearly 30% of traffic fatalities in 2024. One proven solution is the use of intelligent speed assistance (ISA) programs for repeat & "super speeders." We commend @foushee.house.gov for introducing this bill & urge Congress to enact it: foushee.house.gov/media/press-...
I'm introducing the Slow Down Act to provide federal support for state super speeder programs, hold drivers accountable, and make our roads safer for everyone.

People who drive far above the speed limit put every single person around them at risk. People should be able to walk, bike, or cross the street without fearing that a reckless driver could change their lives forever.

And it's also worth looking at the People-First chatbot bill, from @consumerfed.bsky.social and @epic.org -- recently introduced by @foushee.house.gov and @repcasar.bsky.social

As AI continues to develop, we must work hand-in-hand with our allies to ensure this technology is not being developed in a manner that harms working people.
I met with Bernd Lange, Brando Benifei, Kathleen Van Brempt, Christel Schaldemose and Lina Gálvez of the European Parliament to discuss AI and digital policy efforts.
I am a cosponsor of the Restore Trust in Government Act to actually ban congressional stock trading and will continue to fight for its passage.
I am strongly against insider trading, but this week I voted against the so-called Stop Insider Trading Act because it doesn't prevent Congressmembers from owning or selling stocks and also exempts the President from any insider trading restrictions.
I asked Trump’s science advisor if the non-binding “ratepayer protection pledge” has helped with rising energy costs due to data centers.
He gave me 3 different answers. I’ll let you decide if you believe this Administration cares about rising utility costs due to data centers.
As a cosponsor of the Block the Bombs Act, I will continue to fight to ensure our taxpayer dollars are only being spent in accordance with our humanitarian values.
My office continues to get calls about Section 219 in the defense budget, which expands defense cooperation with Israel.
I want to reiterate that I voted against this budget, and do not support this policy.
Today, I voted no on the GOP's budget resolution that wastes tens of billions of taxpayer dollars on Trump's wars abroad through reconciliation.
This bill sets the stage for more wasteful spending without addressing the cost-of-living in any way.
Read my full statement.
The defense budget also includes the GOP's voter disenfranchisement bill, the so-called Save America Act, as well as Section 219, which expands defense cooperation with Israel.
These are policy riders that I cannot support. The Senate must reject this legislation immediately.
