375,000 people in Sudan are on the brink of starvation, and both the SAF and the RSF have used hunger as a weapon of war. Congress and this administration must do more to secure the entry of much-needed food aid into Sudan.
Trump’s ICE and Border Patrol are kidnapping and disappearing anyone they can find who looks Latino or speaks Spanish — even US citizens. No due process. No respect for the rule of law. Just an authoritarian administration breaking law after law in the pursuit of maximum cruelty.
When Republicans passed their Big Bad Betrayal Bill, they kicked millions of Americans off of their health care and slashed SNAP funding for hungry families — meaning millions will get poorer and sicker. This should not be how we live in the richest country in the world.
Trump and Republicans’ slashing of Medicaid and refusal to extend ACA subsidies makes our broken health care system even worse. As millions of American families struggle to afford basic care, Republicans have no plan or answer. I’m fighting for Medicare for All. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
If Republicans really wanted to protect kids, they would address their #1 cause of death: guns. Congress must work to pass commonsense gun safety reforms — to keep these weapons out of our schools and off our streets.
Most Americans hate Trump’s economy. Why? Because he’s spending his time catering to the rich and giving tax cuts to billionaires instead of making life better for poor and working families. A President for himself and for the wealthy. www.npr.org/2025/12/17/n...
Trump’s termination of TPS for thousands of immigrants isn’t him going after the “worst of the worst.” He’s stripping legal status from highly-skilled workers who do dangerous jobs to keep our communities running, making worker shortages worse and slowing production.
“It’s not something that somebody else pays. It’s something that America pays.” Trump’s reckless tariffs are crushing American businesses, killing countless jobs, and raising prices across the board. He is destroying our economy for no reason — and all of us are paying the price.
I was glad to be joined recently in the Immigration Subcommittee by General President of the International Union of Painters and Allied Trades Jimmy Williams, TPS recipients, & other members of IUPAT. I’ll keep fighting for a path to citizenship for TPS recipients.
Trump says affordability is a “con job” and a “fake narrative” — but only 26% of Americans approve of how he’s handling the cost of living. Bottom line: Trump doesn’t care if you can’t afford to feed your family or pay your bills. He’s getting rich, and that’s all that matters.
Welcome to the newest co-sponsors of my Medicare for All bill in the House! Medicare for All is not only good policy — as premiums skyrocket for millions of Americans — it is incredibly popular. Let’s keep building momentum for universal health care and get this passed!
ICYMI: I introduced my Dignity for Detained Immigrants Act, which would require greater oversight of detention facilities, repeal mandatory detention, and prohibit the detention of families and children. It’s time to protect immigrants from this lawless administration.
One of my favorite parts of my job is getting to call people with good news! It was such a privilege to talk to the young people that I am nominating for our country’s military academies. Here’s some joy as we head into the holidays!
Trump’s cronies at the DOJ were so busy scrubbing the President’s name from the Epstein Files that they forgot to redact some mentions of victims — exposing survivors publicly. They care more about protecting Trump than protecting victims of sexual abuse.
