Republicans love to say that immigrants hurt our economy. The truth is that they pay trillions more in taxes than they receive in any sort of benefits.
Immigrants contribute so much to this country, including to our economy.

So excited to cheer on all of the talented athletes from my home state of WA during the Winter Olympics!

Trump promised to go after the “worst of the worst.” Instead, he is sending federal agents to kidnap kids off the street as they head to school — sending them to prisons thousands of miles from home.
How does this make any of us safer?

Last year, I asked FBI Director Kash Patel if he had met with any of the women abused by Epstein and his friends. He refused to answer.
As we see more of the files, the DOJ is now saying it won’t prosecute anyone further. This is a disgusting cover-up from both the FBI & DOJ.
NEW POD: I sat down to discuss my latest field hearing on corporate consolidation and the rising cost of food. Tune in to hear about my work on the Monopoly Busters Caucus!
Watch at the link in my story or listen where you get your podcasts.

DHS is using biometric identification systems — filming protesters and legal observers.
They are creating a surveillance state. That’s why I introduced the ICE Out of My Face Act to protect our freedoms and our democracy.
This is fantastic news! I’m thrilled to see the dedicated nurses at Seattle Children’s Hospital getting a contract that provides them with fair wages and working conditions.

Trump has already fired or forced out nearly 200,000 workers. Now they are slashing protections for thousands more.
Federal workers keep our gov’t running and ensure the American people get their Social Security, VA benefits, and Medicaid. This is ridiculous.

Republicans love to talk about protecting kids, yet they are constantly putting trans kids in danger. Trans people account for less than 1% of the population, yet there were 745 anti-trans bills introduced last year alone.
It’s cruelty for the sake of cruelty.
Layoffs are up 118% from January 2025.
Trump promised to come in and fix the economy on day one. He lied. And now thousands of Americans have lost their jobs as unemployment rates continue to rise.

Two-thirds of Americans agree that ICE has “gone too far”.
It is time to get these masked men out of our cities. NOW.

Republicans have handed over Congress’s Article I powers to the White House.
They don’t question him, they don’t hold him accountable. They don’t do anything to rein in the lawlessness of this administration. But Democrats will.
Crumbs for working people, gold bars for billionaires — that’s the Republican Party's priority.
Tom Homan has said that he will pull 700 DHS agents out of Minnesota — that still leaves 2,300 agents or a force FOUR TIMES the size of the local Minneapolis police force.
ICE and CBP need to get out of our communities NOW.
U.S. citizens are facing intimidation, threats, and brutality at the hands of ICE and Border Patrol.
Instead of calling this out, Republicans are trying to point the finger to free speech in Europe. We won’t let them. It’s time for accountability right here at home.
DHS is using biometric technology to create a surveillance state with militarized troops terrorizing communities.
That’s why I’m leading the ICE Out of Our Faces Act with @edmarkey.bsky.social and @jeff-merkley.bsky.social to stop the proliferation of this technology and protect our democracy.
Republicans held a hearing on “Europe’s threat to American speech” — fully ignoring the fact that Trump and his DHS are violating the First Amendment here in American daily.
We are in a crisis in this country, and Republicans are doing everything possible to distract from that.
It is unbelievable that Kash Patel, Pam Bondi, and Todd Blanche are continuing to protect predators — redacting their names while exposing the names of survivors and REFUSING to investigate these pedophiles. The people in these files, who wrote these emails, should be investigated and deposed NOW.
ICYMI: I hosted a field hearing in Seattle on corporate consolidation and the rising cost of food.
Trump and Republicans are sitting back as prices skyrocket. Democrats are standing up and working towards solutions to lower costs for American families.

The way that my Republican colleagues speak about trans people is absolutely despicable.
Their rhetoric is dangerous and puts the lives of trans people in jeopardy.
