Trump did that.

Conversion therapy is a harmful practice that poses serious danger to young LGBTQ+ people. It has zero place anywhere in this country. This decision is further proof that we need a national ban.

NBC News Headline: "Supreme Court rules against Colorado's ban on conversion therapy aimed at LGBTQ youth." Below the headline is a video thumbnail showing the exterior of the U.S. Supreme Court building, featuring classical columns and steps. Additional text from the article is below.

I was proud to push the Biden administration to enact a national ban on noncompetes from the FTC. After Trump reversed this policy, it’s great to see Washington state stepping up banning noncompete agreements. This is a huge win for workers.

New Washington law bans noncompete agreements

Washington Gov. Bob Ferguson recently signed a law that makes noncompete agreements illegal statewide.

We need to vote on another War Powers Resolution to demand that Trump end his illegal war with Iran. Civilian and servicemembers’ lives are at risk, and we are wasting billions of dollars.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govMar 30(source)

We cannot let Cuba become the next target on Trump’s list after Venezuela and Iran. Congress must pass my resolution to block Trump from using taxpayer dollars to attack Cuba without congressional authorization.

There you have it: Money for war, but not for health care. That should be the new Republican slogan.

GOP weighs health care cuts to pay for Iran war

New efforts to rein in health programs open the GOP up to attacks that they're cutting health care to pay for an unpopular war.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govMar 30(source)

The Trump administration is preparing for ground operations in Iran. This senseless war is killing civilians, wasting billions of taxpayer dollars, and raising your prices. We’ve seen this story before — more bombs and more death are not the solution.

Pentagon prepares for weeks of ground operations in Iran

If President Trump approves the plans, such an effort would mark a new phase of the war that could be significantly more dangerous to U.S. troops than the first four weeks.

Today, I was notified of another death that occurred in ICE custody, bringing the total to 45 deaths under the second Trump administration. These are not just numbers, they’re people. It’s devastating and we can’t let it continue. We need accountability & we must dismantle ICE.

Here’s where things really stand on TSA funding.

As #WomensHistoryMonth comes to an end, I want to highlight a fantastic leader in our district: Director of the UW’s Center for Human Rights Angelina Godoy! Angelina is the inaugural recipient of the Helen H. Jackson Chair in Human Rights, and is an integral part of UW and our Seattle community.

This image is a flyer titled "Constituent Spotlight Women's History Month." It features a highlighted individual, identified as Angelina Godoy, founding Director of the University of Washington Center for Human Rights. The text describes Godoy’s achievements, including her role in law, societies, and justice, and her position as the inaugural recipient of the Helen H. Jackson Chair in Human Rights. The flyer includes a photo of Angelina Godoy.

“The average time in custody for unaccompanied children has skyrocketed, from around 37 days to nearly 200 days.” Neha Desai from the National Center for Youth Law has seen firsthand how the Trump admin has ripped families apart and the harm it has caused.

Once again, Washington State is leading the way as one of the first states to officially ban federal agents from wearing face masks. Now, we need to vote to put real guardrails — including no masks — in place for ICE and CBP on the federal level.

Face mask ban for police in Washington is signed into law • Washington State Standard

SEATTLE — Law enforcement officers in Washington state can no longer cover their faces to conceal their identities.

For too long, tech giants have gone unrestricted, putting childrens’ safety and mental health at risk. As the tech industry grows, we need accountability and real guardrails for companies like Meta more than ever. This ruling is a step in the right direction.

I have been clear since the start of the appropriations process: I will not vote to give Trump’s ICE or CBP another cent without major reforms. Tonight, Republicans forced through a bill that will continue the chaos that has left TSA, FEMA, and the Coast Guard unfunded. Read my full statement.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govMar 27(source)

We not only need to hold Trump accountable for his attacks on our immigrant communities, we also need to hold every single Republican, corporate CEO, and Trump supporter accountable for being complicit and refusing to take a stand.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govMar 27(source)

Immigration detention is no place for a child.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govMar 27(source)

Republicans keep changing their minds about whether or not to finally pay TSA agents. Democrats have been consistent since day one. We want to immediately fund TSA, FEMA, and the Coast Guard. But we will not give a penny more to ICE and CBP, which need to be dismantled.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govMar 27(source)

We need to ensure that every single child is provided an attorney in immigration removal proceedings. Children should not be expected to represent themselves in court.
