Don Lemon and Georgia Fort were arrested by federal agents for documenting ICE protests in MN. Trump’s DOJ is going down his hit list of political enemies. This is a blatant attack on the First Amendment and the press. www.cnn.com/2026/01/30/p...
Thank you to @repemilyrandall.bsky.social, @repkimschrier.bsky.social, and @repvalhoyle.bsky.social for coming to the first Monopoly Busters Caucus field hearing on corporate consolidation and rising food prices.
Yesterday, @repemilyrandall.bsky.social and I met with workers and union leaders at the Starbucks Workers United Strike Kitchen. So proud of these workers who are standing up for the working conditions and pay they deserve! It’s time for Starbucks to come to the table and negotiate.
At my town hall, we stood together to send our love and support to Minnesota as Trump and DHS continue their deadly assault on the community. We will NEVER stop fighting for our people, this country, and our democracy.
ICYMI: Special Counsel Jack Smith testified before the Judiciary Committee about his case against Trump and the evidence showing Trump tried to steal the 2020 election and incited an insurrection. Failing to hold Trump accountable is catastrophic for our democracy.
There are 73,000 people sitting in for profit, private immigrant mass incarceration facilities right now — most of whom never committed a crime. Trump isn’t going after the worst of the worst, he is just terrorizing our communities. We cannot give another dime to DHS, ICE, and CBP.
I’ll say this again — the immigration system is a CIVIL system, not criminal. Yet Trump’s DHS snatching up thousands of immigrants and throwing them into private, for profit prisons with no regard for their rights.
From farms to grocery store shelves — monopolies are hurting the folks who grow our food, local businesses, and consumers. We can take on this corporate consolidation and lower costs for the American people.
Happening now: I’m hosting a field hearing on corporate consolidation and rising grocery prices. Food is something that should be accessible for every American. As costs continue to go up, I am working to shine a light on the root causes and hold those responsible accountable.
Today, I joined students at UW Law School to discuss my antitrust work with the Monopoly Busters Caucus. Thank you to Danica Noble and Jonathan Kanter for such a great conversation, and to all of the UW students who showed up with great questions!
Last night, I hosted my 127th town hall, where hundreds of folks came to make their voices heard and stand together in community to protect our democracy. If you weren’t able to make it, I hope to see you at the next one.
January 6th was an incredibly dark day for our democracy, and it changed my view of what could be possible in this country in the worst case scenarios. We cannot allow that fear to paralyze us though. Our democracy is fragile, and we have to stand up and work like hell to protect it.
Trump’s attacks on immigrants, his handing over of our economy to billionaires, his slashing of health care — it’s all intertwined. It is a takeover of every facet of our lives. It’s authoritarian, and we will not let it stand.
During these dark times, speaking with such engaged young people gives me hope for our future. It was great to chat with students from Shorecrest HS about how they can use their voices and get involved in our democracy.
On International Holocaust Remembrance Day, we honor the 6 million Jews and many others murdered by the Nazis and recognize the lasting impact of these horrific events on Jewish communities. We must never forget these atrocities and commit to stopping genocide wherever it occurs.
