Trump doesn’t want to fix our broken immigration system. If he did, he would support popular bipartisan bills like the Dream and Promise Act to provide people with a pathway to citizenship. What he wants is to kidnap legal residents, deport U.S. citizens, and end ALL immigration.
Republicans and big insurance companies like to call Medicare for All “radical.” What’s so radical about having a universal health care system like every other developed country in the world? The American people deserve a health care system that actually WORKS.
What’s in Republicans’ budget bill? A complete and total endorsement of everything Trump is doing. Cutting Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security. Illegal deportations. Ending the Department of Education. They support all of it.
Today is World Press Freedom Day. The US is now ranked 57th in the world for press freedom — and that is rapidly declining as Trump continues to attack journalism. Democracy needs a strong, free press to survive.
We have never suffered from scarcity in America. We suffer from greed. And because of that greed, more and more people are not taking their medication, losing their health care, and dying. It’s enough. We need Medicare for All.
Trump terminated $400 of AmeriCorps funding — including $21.6 MILLION for WA programs — funding that goes toward teaching our students, preventing wildfires, supporting veterans, and so much more. This funding must be restored.
NEW: A federal judge just ruled that Apple restricted choice and ripped off consumers using the app store. Americans deserve better. My full statement with Monopoly Busters Caucus co-chairs @deluzio.house.gov, @pkryan.bsky.social, and @repangiecraig.bsky.social.
When a school shooting happens, Republicans don’t blame the guns — they blame mental health issues. But now Donald Trump is cutting $1 billion in mental health funding that aimed to stop gun violence in schools. Make it make sense. www.washingtonpost.com/education/20...
Tuesday, I rallied with @balint.house.gov and colleagues, calling for Mohsen Mahdawi to be released from ICE detention. Wednesday, he was freed. We will not back down until Mahmoud, Kilmar, Rümeysa, and all the other immigrants kidnapped by Trump are returned home.
Workers’ rights and immigrants’ rights are deeply intertwined — and we must fight for both. For the right to organize on the job. For the right to not be kidnapped and disappeared like Kilmar Abrego Garcia. For every immigrant worker that helps move this country forward.
