It is the voices of the survivors ringing through the darkness of all of this horror that has gotten us this far. These survivors aren’t just doing it for them — they are doing it for young girls, children, and survivors of sexual assault and violence everywhere.
Pam Bondi refused to apologize to the Epstein survivors and essentially said, “I’m not going to get in the gutter with you.” How is an apology to survivors getting in the gutter? I’ll continue fighting for the courageous survivors who deserve much better than this DOJ.
Too often when discussing trans rights, we’re forced to be on the defensive, as Republicans wage attacks. Today, we take the opportunity to look forward by introducing my Trans Bill of Rights, a comprehensive vision to provide protections for all trans and nonbinary people.
To every Epstein survivor who has fought so hard and had to live with the horrors that were inflicted upon them: I will not stop pushing until there is real justice for you. Today, we’re holding the Department of Justice’s feet to the fire and demanding real answers.
I asked AG Bondi to turn around to the survivors in the room and apologize for not protecting their identities in the release of the Epstein files. She wouldn’t look at them. The way the DOJ has treated these survivors while conducting a massive cover up is absolutely disgraceful.
Pam Bondi’s DOJ has released Epstein files with thousands of redactions to cover for abusers. Meanwhile, they have released the survivor’s names, personal information, addresses, and even nude photos of them — putting them and their families’ safety in jeopardy. Shameful.
The Democratic Republic of the Congo is facing an unprecedented humanitarian crisis, with more than 16 million people in need of food assistance, and millions displaced. Trump’s gutting of USAID has only made the crisis worse.
Everyone should read this letter from some of the Epstein survivors about the Department of Justice’s actions mirroring the "very dynamics Epstein relied upon”. The survivors deserve justice and accountability NOW.
After decades of repression and brutal conflict, the Syrian people are finally free of the Assad regime. The U.S. must continue to use policy to support Syria’s new government through diplomacy and dialogue, not punishment and isolation.
ICE arbitrarily determined that some immigrants are no longer eligible for bond hearings, a policy that flies in the face of the right to due process. This is a policy that over 300 judges have rejected 1,600 times. Trump must follow the law and rescind this policy.
Picture of  DHS seal with white and green text overlayed: "NEW JAYAPAL LEADS 62 MEMBERS OF CONGRESS TO DEMAND TRUMP ADMINISTRATION RESCIND ILLEGAL DETENTION POLICY DENYING IMMIGRANTS BOND HEARINGS"
We knew Trump was lying when he said he was going after the “worst of the worst”. And now the data confirms it. ICE has torn apart communities, gone after children, and arrested people who are here LEGALLY. Stop the quotas. Require judicial warrants. ICE out NOW.
Masked federal immigration agents with a headline from CBS News overlayed in white font that reads: "LESS THAN 14% of those arrested by ICE in Trump's 1st year back in office had violent criminal records"
“Washington made a choice. A choice to let the laws turn to rust.” Here’s former Assistant AG for the U.S. Antitrust Division Jonathan Kanter on how Trump’s admin is failing to enforce the antitrust laws on the books. And how we can actually lower costs for Americans.
“When access to distribution is fair, consumers see lower everyday prices, communities retain local food access, and small producers gain a foothold in the market.” Listen to Emily Chase’s testimony about the concentration of the grocery market and her experience as an independent grocer:
