Read part of a statement from AFGE’s president, the union for TSA agents. ICE is not helping TSA. It is creating more unnecessary chaos and confusion.

Statement from Everett Kelley: ICE agents are not trained or certified in aviation security. TSA officers spend months learning to detect explosives, weapons, and threats specifically designed to evade detection at checkpoints — skills that require specialized instruction, hands-on practice, and ongoing recertification. You cannot improvise that. Putting untrained personnel at security checkpoints does not fill a gap. It creates one.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govMar 23(source)

Trump's lawless ICE creates nothing but chaos and are completely untrained to conduct airport security. Democrats are ready to fund TSA without giving ICE a blank check. Republicans are blocking it. ICE needs to get the hell out of our airports NOW.

Medicare for All would provide comprehensive, quality health care to every American. (6/6)

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govMar 23(source)

We need Medicare for All. (5/6)

Republicans want unlimited taxpayer dollars for war, but nothing for your health care. (4/6)

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govMar 23(source)

Republicans have since taken an axe to health care. Our system is broken. (3/6)

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govMar 23(source)

The Affordable Care Act expanded coverage and protected patients with pre-existing conditions. (2/6)

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govMar 23(source)

16 years ago, the Affordable Care Act was signed into law. Let’s talk about it. 🧵

Trump wants to send ICE agents to US airports. This will not make any of us safer. Read my full statement.

We have to stop Trump’s illegal war.

Rep. Jayapal stands behind a "No War With Iran" sign. The U.S. Capitol building is visible in the background. A quote on the image discusses opposing war and investing in tools for peace and freedom, attributed to Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal.

This week, I joined the Main Street Alliance Summit for a great roundtable discussion about policies that would help small businesses and our nation’s care infrastructure. We need universal childcare, paid leave, and Medicare for All!

Priorities.

A quiz graphic titled "Quiz Time" with a question: "You have $200 billion, what are you spending it on?" The options are: A. Cancel nearly all medical debt in the United States, B. Supply food assistance to 42 million Americans for 2 years, C. Provide free child care for 10 million children, D. Give the Pentagon more money for an illegal war in Iran.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govMar 21(source)

Find a crime. Blame an immigrant. Make people deportable. Deny basic due process. Rinse and repeat. That is Republicans' favorite type of bill.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govMar 21(source)

Trump’s illegal war in Iran is making life more expensive. It needs to end. Now.

The image shows a news headline from The Seattle Times about Washington gas prices hitting $5 a gallon due to the Iran war. In the background, the Seattle Space Needle is visible. In the foreground, there's a gas station sign displaying the price as $5.29 for regular.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govMar 21(source)

The Pentagon just requested an additional $200 BILLION to fund Trump’s illegal war in Iran. That’s your taxpayer dollars going to war instead of to education, food assistance, and health care. We need to end this war and focus on issues right here at home.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govMar 21(source)

Trump is trying to distract us from the Epstein files with his illegal war with Iran. But it won’t work and we won’t stop our fight for transparency. The DOJ needs to release ALL the files.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govMar 20(source)

Every death that is recorded under ICE’s watch is not just a number — there are families that have lost loved ones. Imrain and all those in mourning deserve answers. I will not stop fighting until we get real accountability.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govMar 20(source)

Yesterday on the House Floor, the Washington Delegation held a moment of silence to honor the life of Air Force Captain Ariana Savino. I send my deepest condolences to her family and loved ones.

Loss of Air Force captain from WA leaves ‘shock, anger, grief, pride'

Ariana Savino, 31, of Covington, was a natural leader and dedicated friend, said those who knew her. She was one of six aviators killed in Iraq last week.

Removing undocumented students from public schools would hurt us all.

Another escalation of Trump’s illegal war: The administration is now sending thousands of additional Marines to the Middle East. Nobody wants another forever war. Congress must demand a stop to this before more lives are lost and trillions of taxpayer dollars are wasted.

Headline from The Wall Street Journal: "Pentagon Sending Thousands of Additional Marines to Middle East" Below is a photo of a warship and additional text from the article that reads, "The Pentagon is sending three warships and thousands of additional Marines to the Middle East, even as President Trump insists he won’t put American boots on the ground in Iran, according to U.S. officials. Roughly 2,200 to 2,500 Marines from the California-based USS Boxer amphibious ready group and 11th Marine Expeditionary Unit are heading to the U.S. Central Command, responsible for all American forces in the Middle East, the officials said."
