Trump has continued to double down on the Iran war. MORE airstrikes, MORE taxpayer dollars, and NO attention to American troops, innocent civilians, or to your pockets. Congress must support my War Powers Resolution and we must end this war immediately.
From the beginning, Trump’s war in Iran has had no mission, no strategy, and no end goal. And now he wants us to pour billions more taxpayer dollars into it. Meanwhile, Americans can’t afford healthcare, gas, and groceries. It’s an insult and it must end.
Trump and Republicans’ priority is pursuing a deadly, destructive, and illegal war in Iran and paying out their defense contractor donors. That could not be clearer from this year’s NDAA. I voted HELL NO. Full statement:
Jayapal Statement on NDAA:

A budget is first and foremost a declaration of our priorities. Trump and Republicans’ priority is pursuing a deadly, destructive, and illegal war in Iran and paying out their defense contractor donors. That could not be clearer from this year’s NDAA — which I voted HELL NO on. 

The American people are being crushed under the weight of inflation, as Trump’s unconstitutional war raises gas prices. And a small fraction of the money Republicans have put in this bill could restore the Medicaid cuts that pushed millions off their healthcare, pay for universal pre-k, any number of things that would actually ease the cost of living crisis that Americans are facing. 

Time and again we are seeing from this administration, and their Republican yes-men in Congress, that they simply do not care that working people are struggling. I refuse to support that agenda and will continue working to stop this funding and actually invest in our people and our communities.
Republicans are bringing a weak-ass bill to the floor that’s called the “Stop Insider Trading Act.” Except it does NOT actually stop insider trading. If Republicans actually wanted to stop congressional stock trading, they’d pass our bipartisan Restore Trust in Congress Act.
BREAKING: I am forcing a vote on my War Powers Resolution with Rep. Jason Crow to stop Trump's illegal Iran war. This war has killed 18 U.S. servicemembers, cost BILLIONS of taxpayer dollars, and displaced millions of civilians. I urge my colleagues to vote YES.
Family detention is barbaric and deeply traumatizing for children. Yet, Republicans are allowing it to continue under their bad immigration bill. I introduced an amendment to stop this cruel practice. No Republicans supported it.
What would happen if we actually passed comprehensive, humane immigration reform? Republicans would no longer be able to use immigrants to distract us from real issues. No wonder Republicans can’t stop lying.
As Trump cracks down on all immigration — it is more urgent than ever that Congress act to protect Dreamers and TPS recipients. I'm joining Rep. Sylvia Garcia in an effort to force a vote on the American Dream and Promise Act, to provide Dreamers a roadmap to citizenship and keep families together.
Reps. Jayapal and Garcia speaking at an event with a podium sign that reads "AMERICAN DREAM AND PROMISE ACT." The text overlays say, "Jayapal Joins Garcia On Discharge Petition To Force A Vote On Bill To Give Dreamers and TPS Holders Permanent Protections & Pathway To Citizenship." Additional text explains the discharge petition needs of 218 members to sign. In the background are people holding signs demanding protections for Dreamers.
I am formally calling for an independent, impartial, and credible investigation into the Philippine Army’s recent killing of 19 people in Toboso, Negros Occidental province. Among those killed were U.S. citizen civilians Kai Sorem, a resident of Seattle, and Lyle Prijoles.
Overlayed a letter to the ambassador to the Philippines is a photo of Kai Sorem and text that reads, "NEW: Jayapal Calls for an Independent Investigation into Toboso Killings, including seattle resident Kai Sorem." Smaller text reads, "Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal is calling for an independent, impartial, and credible investigation into the Philippine Army’s recent killing of 19 people in Toboso, Negros Occidental province. Among those killed were U.S. citizen civilians Kai Sorem, a resident of Seattle, and Lyle Prijoles."
Today instead of addressing the killings by ICE and CBP, Republicans are pushing forward an extreme bill to eviscerate asylum, strip protections for unaccompanied kids, and allow for the indefinite detention of children and families. We cannot let this cruelty continue.
85% of the US beef market is controlled by 4 corporations. This consolidation boosts the profits of these corporate giants at the expense of independent farmers and consumers. Our Family Grocery and Farmer Relief Act would break up these monopolies and lower costs.
I was honored to speak at Pacific Northwest Climate Week — the first-ever cross-region climate week of its kind in North America. It was great to come together with so many leaders, researchers, and advocates to chart the path forward to protect and prioritize our climate.
