This week: Trump continued his authoritarian march, Republicans embarrassed themselves in Congress, and the courts kept blocking the administration’s illegal actions. Here’s my 3 Good and 3 Bad Things for you to stay engaged.
It’s becoming increasingly clear that Republicans have stopped caring about the Constitution’s checks and balances. They’re OK with destroying free speech and ignoring the courts — as long as their Dictator-in-Chief Donald Trump says so.
Grateful to those who voted for @sanders.senate.gov measure to block offensive weapons sales to Israel, a measure I have also introduced in the House. Israel has used US weapons to violate international law and the US cannot continue being complicit in this war. www.axios.com/2025/04/03/s...
Donald Trump is disappearing and deporting people with permanent legal status just because he disagrees with their political views. This is the playbook of authoritarians and dictators. And if he can do it to them, he can do it to anyone.
Providing the Israeli govt with offensive weapons as they violate both international and U.S. laws is unacceptable and makes us complicit in the violence and destruction in Gaza. That’s why I introduced legislation to block specific offensive weapons sales to Israel. komonews.com/news/local/u...
Democrats can’t just be an opposition party, we have to be a proposition party — to show people that we will stand up and fight for them. That is how we move forward — by fighting for Medicare, Social Security, Medicaid, higher wages, and more. By fighting for the people.
Republicans say that judges blocking Trump’s illegal actions threaten judicial independence. You know what REALLY threatens judicial independence? When unelected billionaires try to buy court seats. Or when the Supreme Court has no enforceable ethics code.
Student loan borrowers are facing so much uncertainty on their payments as the Trump administration continues to change and cancel repayment programs. Here is a quick guide on what you need to know right now: www.kuow.org/stories/6-th...
A Chinese national died at the Blythe U.S. Border Patrol Station in Yuma, Arizona, and agents are unable to verify if some of the necessary welfare checks occurred. There is no excuse for that. My full statement:
When Trump pushes illegal and inhumane immigration policies, it’s on us to fight back. Glad to see @immcouncil.org filing a lawsuit — and Congress must pass my No Round Up Act to stop Trump’s cruel mass deportations. www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...
Trump isn’t “draining the swamp” — he’s flooding it with corruption and greed. He’s filling his administration with billionaires and stealing from the American people, all so he can pass a giant tax cut for the richest 1%.
Yesterday, we got news that Trump, Musk, and RFK Jr. are planning on closing Seattle’s HHS office — which serves more than 15 million people in the PNW. These cuts are dangerous, reckless, and pointless. My full statement:
WOW! My friend @booker.senate.gov just spoke on the Senate floor for over 24 HOURS, blocking Trump’s dangerous & disastrous agenda, and BREAKING THE RECORD of a man who stood in the way of civil rights! This is what Democrats must do in this moment: stand up, disrupt, make good trouble!
