U.S. credit rating gets downgraded, a good SCOTUS decision, and a federal judge blocks DOGE. Here are your 3 bad things and 3 good things you need to know about this week to stay informed and keep up your resistance!
NEW: The Trump administration defied a court order and attempted to deport immigrants to South Sudan — an incredibly dangerous country where many of these individuals are not even from. Donald Trump is not a king. He must obey the courts. My full statement:
I introduced an amendment in the Judiciary Committee to try and stop Republicans' anti-immigrant bill from moving forward until Trump obeys the courts and returns wrongfully deported individuals, like Kilmar Abrego Garcia. Bring him home.
NEW: Trump just came out in favor of Medicaid work requirements — which are a CUT to Medicaid benefits. Republicans want to kick sick people and those with disabilities off their health care, all so they can give billionaires a giant tax cut.
Proud to join dozens of my colleagues to stand in solidarity with @replamonica.bsky.social. The DOJ’s targeting of Rep. McIver is a political attack and a blatant attempt to intimidate members of Congress from doing our jobs. When you come after one of us, you come after all of us.
Last night, @welch.senate.gov and I hosted a viewing of No Other Land — an Oscar-winning film about violence and destruction in the occupied West Bank. Thank you to Basel Adra, Hamdan Ballal, Yuval Abraham, and Rachel Szor for letting us share this important story at the Capitol.
44% of all kids in America depend on Medicaid or SNAP to survive. But Republicans want to slash these programs so they can give a tax cut to billionaires. That’ll leave 34 million kids poorer, sicker, and hungrier.
Trump’s senseless cuts are driving away dedicated climate scientists and discouraging young people from entering the field. This will destroy our region’s progress in natural resource conservation — harming our planet for generations. www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news...
Today, SCOTUS ruled that the Trump admin can revoke TPS for Venezuelans, despite the fact that they face extreme oppression, arbitrary detention, extrajudicial killings, and torture — the exact type of situation that requires our govt to provide TPS. Read my full statement:
Sometimes, the Constitution can be unclear, and we need a judge to interpret it. The 14th Amendment is not one of those cases. Birthright citizenship is the law, and if you are born in the United States, you are a U.S. citizen.
After the Great Recession — which cost millions of jobs and destroyed countless lives — our government put regulations in place to make sure it never happened again. Now, Trump is getting rid of those rules. What could possibly go wrong? www.theguardian.com/business/202...
If Trump can undermine due process for immigrants here legally, he can do the same to you. What happens when he disagrees with you? What happens if he doesn’t like what you say? He’ll come after you just like he has to so many others. We must stand up for our collective rights.
