I remember being trapped in the House gallery on January 6th as insurrectionists pounded on the doors. Trump incited a violent mob that assaulted law enforcement officers. Now, House Republicans refuse to condemn Trump’s pardons of those same insurrectionists.
It’s horrifying & stunning to see this admin stand with dictators over our own allies. We should be standing up for peace, freedom, & security worldwide. I’m deeply concerned about what today's meeting in the Oval Office means for the people of Ukraine, and I’ll continue to stand with our allies.
House Republicans are passing immigration bills that put people at risk of deportation just for being *accused* of minor crimes. That’s incredibly dangerous. As Republicans rip away due process rights, I’ll continue standing up for immigrants.
In just over a month, what have Trump and Republicans done to deliver on their promise of lowering prices? NOTHING. Instead, they’ve made things worse for Americans with sweeping tariffs and the dismantling of agencies like the CFPB. They have no plans to actually help you.
Today, I was proud to stand with my colleagues to reintroduce the American Dream and Promise Act to give Dreamers a roadmap to citizenship. Dreamers do essential work across our country — let’s finally pass this bipartisan bill to give them the security & protection they deserve.
Are House Republicans okay with Trump pardoning criminals who assaulted law enforcement on Jan 6? Are they okay with some of those people having already committed more violent crimes since being pardoned? These should be easy questions. They should be able to answer them.
Today, I joined @sylviagarcia.house.gov to reintroduce The American Dream and Promise Act. My work with Dreamers began long before coming to Congress, and even as the Trump administration puts in place cruel and extreme immigration policies, I will continue to stand with Dreamers.
For those who missed it last night: Almost every single House Republican voted to gut Medicaid just so they can pass a giant tax cut for the richest 1% of millionaires and billionaires. They’re working for their donors, not you.
