I’m incredibly disappointed in the Senate’s vote to pass Republicans’ partisan spending bill. Democrats should not be complicit in giving a blank check to Trump and Elon Musk. Fighting back for the American people is the only way forward.
Senate Democrats: Don’t betray working families. Don’t give Trump and Elon Musk a blank check. Don’t be complicit in the slashing of government programs. Vote NO on cloture and NO on final passage of Republicans’ bad bill.
🚨BREAKING: With @raskin.house.gov & @scanlon.house.gov, I’m leading 100+ House Democrats in demanding answers on Mahmoud Khalil’s arrest. Trump’s attempt to deport Khalil is authoritarian & an attack on the First Amendment. We won’t sit quietly as his administration tries to dismantle free speech.
I am proud of the senior senator from my state and the top Democrat on the Appropriations Committee. She is 100% correct and showing us the way forward by being willing to fight for the American people. That is exactly what every Senate Democrat should do. Vote No on cloture.✊🏾✊🏾
Good morning. I am a firm 100% NO on House Republicans' slush fund CR. I will NOT vote to let Elon and Trump pick winners and losers with your taxpayer dollars. Senators were not elected to beg Trump for federal resources.
Senate Democrats must refuse to provide the votes to pass this partisan Republican spending bill. Stand up and fight for the American people like House Democrats did. Vote no on cloture. Refuse to be complicit in giving Musk and Trump a slush fund to destroy Americans lives.
Democrats cannot give a blank check to Trump and Elon Musk to continue their destruction of Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, and more. We have to stand up for the American people. Senate Democrats must hold the line and vote NO on this Republican spending bill.
Democrats need to stand up and fight for the American people. We are ready to pass a 30-day clean funding bill that gives time for the two sides to negotiate, but we refuse to give Trump and Elon Musk a blank check to continue slashing and burning our government.
This is the Trump Administration. Deporting a child, who is a US citizen with brain cancer and was literally on her way to an emergency checkup, because her parents are undocumented. Cruel. Inhumane. Evil. www.nbcnews.com/news/latino/...
Trump, Elon Musk, and Republicans are going to keep trying to slash Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid. The question for Democrats is: are we going to be complicit and give them a blank check to continue? My answer is HELL NO.
Republicans have the power to keep the government open. They have majorities in the House, Senate, and the White House. If the government shuts down, it will be on them. Democrats have the power to stand up for the American people — and that’s exactly what we’re doing.
My bill would repeal parts of the Alien Registration Act that Trump is trying to use, blocking his ability to force immigrants to register with the government. We’ve seen this script before. It’s racist, xenophobic, and a waste of resources. Let’s stop it.
Yes, there are many undocumented immigrants currently residing in the United States. It is also true that the average undocumented immigrant has been in America for 16 years — working and contributing to our economy and our communities. They have jobs and families. They pay taxes.
This law was also used after 9/11, putting 13,000 people from Muslim-majority, Arab, African, and South Asian countries into deportation proceedings. It resulted in zero terrorism convictions and was later called inefficient and a waste of resources by Homeland Security.
The Alien Registration Act of 1940 was used for the inhumane imprisonment of more than 120,000 people of Japanese descent in concentration camps across the U.S. during WWII. Trump is following in those footsteps.
NEW: Trump is trying to use a long-dormant immigration law associated with the most shameful periods of US history to force undocumented people to register, making it easier to carry out his mass deportations. I’ll be introducing legislation to stop him. Let me explain.🧵
