Trump and Republicans are working for one group of people right now — billionaires. Instead of introducing ludicrous legislation to pretend they’re trying to balance the budget, they should be working to serve their constituents — not the President and his billionaire buddies.
The Judiciary Committee should be a space where we discuss how we can protect our Constitution and how we can protect the American people. These should be things we can work on in a bipartisan way. Republicans don’t want to do any of that.
I will not be complicit in sending another dime to DHS as they continue their reign of terror. We must get these agents out of the Twin Cities and out of our communities across this country. My full statement:
When Democrats have the gavels back, we need to dismantle DHS and ensure that immigration is handled how it should be — as a CIVIL system. In the meantime, we won’t stop pushing for guardrails to ICE and CBP.
Kristi Noem sending ICE agents in MN body cameras is simply not enough. We also need major reforms — including access to body cam footage, no masks, independent investigations, and real accountability for ICE and CBP’s lawlessness.
We are in an affordability crisis in this country — as millions of workers struggle to stay afloat. The Trump administration’s reckless tariffs and Big Bad Betrayal have raised prices for food, health care, you name it. It’s time to work to lower costs.
Mike Johnson handing Congress’s constitutional power to the cult party of Trump — allowing their lawlessness to continue without checks. Congress has the power of the purse, and we can and must use it to rein in ICE and CBP.
When Democrats take the majority, DHS needs to be overhauled. In the meantime, we demand clear guardrails for ICE and CBP. No warrantless arrests, no masks, no private, for-profit detention centers. And there must be independent investigations and real accountability.
It was so great to meet with so many groups and local leaders who are doing such incredible work in Seattle and beyond. Thank you to J Street, Jewish Voice for Peace, and IAFF for sitting down and for everything you do!
Today marks the start of Black History Month — a time to recognize both the hardships endured by and celebrate the achievements of Black Americans. As the Trump admin attempts to erase Black history — it’s critical that we honor Black history, voices, and leaders every single day.
“This business represents years of sacrifice, long hours, and the belief that hard work and persistence should still mean something in this country.” Listen to Cynthia’s story about how corporate consolidation has threatened her small business.
