Congress has just NINE voting days left before Republicans let the ACA tax credits expire.
It’s time for Speaker Johnson to put a bill on the floor to stop premiums from doubling or tripling for millions of Americans.
In October, I demanded answers from Trump’s ICE on its wrongful arrests of U.S. citizens.
Nearly two months later, they haven’t responded — and they’ve continued illegally detaining and assaulting U.S. citizens. This must end. www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...
Trump and Republicans gave ICE $45 billion in their Big Bad Betrayal Bill to ramp up their campaign to kidnap and disappear immigrants — sending many to inhumane detention centers.
Yet DHS is refusing to allow members of Congress to conduct oversight visits of these facilities.
The conditions in many immigration detention centers are horrifying.
Inedible food. Individuals forced to sleep on the floor next to overflowing toilets. Pregnant women shackled and suffering miscarriages.
It is a system designed to break peoples’ spirit, akin to torture.
A balanced budget cannot be reached by just slashing spending without dramatically increasing poverty.
That’s what Trump and Republicans are doing — that’s why millions are struggling to afford groceries and rent. All while passing tax breaks for their billionaire buddies.
Illegal boat strikes, health care anxiety, judge rules on immigrant detention, and the Tennessee special election.
Here are 3 good things and 3 bad things you need to know!
ICE is kidnapping parents from outside of their children’s daycare centers.
This is not what going after the “worst of the worst” looks like. Trump is terrorizing families and traumatizing children.

I was honored to stand alongside Mahmoud Khalil, who was wrongfully detained, to introduce my Dignity for Detained Immigrants Act.
He and the thousands of immigrants in detention or who have been detained deserve better from this country.
My Dignity for Detained Immigrants Act establishes real standards for immigrant detention and phases out for-profit facilities.
This corrupt administration shouldn’t be allowed to funnel billions of dollars to private prisons companies who donated millions to Trump’s campaign.
23 people have died in immigration detention this year under the Trump administration, and ICE seems to be lying about the circumstances.
They told Congress that Chaofeng Ge died by suicide, but he was found with his hands and feet tied. That simply doesn’t add up.
Republicans want to slash programs across the government and make sure there’s no way for future administrations to fund them.
That means programs like Medicare and Social Security would be on the chopping block.
220 judges, including 23 appointed by Trump, have ruled that this administration’s mass detention policies are unlawful.
They are sending tens of thousands of innocent immigrants into for-profit prisons with subhuman conditions and no access to attorneys. It’s horrific.
Sarah Owings is a lawyer who represents immigrants who have been detained by ICE. As Trump and Republicans remove all oversight measures at these facilities, it is critical that we listen to her clients’ stories.
In Charlotte, NC, Border Patrol raided a church, tried to arrest the same U.S. citizen twice within five minutes, and scared families so much that thousands of kids were kept out of school.
In WA and OR, we’ve seen people kidnapped from preschools and daycares.
It’s disgusting.
The CFPB has returned billions to Americans scammed by corporations. But now the Trump administration is canceling lawsuits and taking money out of consumers’ pockets.
The government should work for the people, not billionaire CEOs — and I’m demanding answers.
Trump is doing everything he can to hide his immigration detention abuses — lying to the public, sending people to third countries, and denying members of Congress access to detention facilities.
But I promise you I will not give up in this fight for truth and justice.
NEW: @repcasar.bsky.social & I led 42 members in calling on Sec. Rubio to hold Pakistan’s military accountable as they face an escalating crisis of authoritarianism.
As US citizens who speak out face intimidation, our govt must take concrete action to defend them. jayapal.house.gov/2025/12/03/j...
It was an honor to meet with leadership of the Washington State National Guard.
Our National Guard members sacrifice so much to serve this country, and it is critical that we work to ensure that their skills are respected and used correctly, not politicized by this administration.
NEW POD: In the 1st episode of my series on Medicare For All, I spoke w/ @wendellpotter.bsky.social — a former health insurance exec turned universal health care advocate — about our broken system & how we can fix it.
Watch below or listen wherever you get podcasts! www.youtube.com/watch?v=PzjP...
Thank you so much to Mahmoud Khalil and Badar Khan Suri for sharing their important stories and to Sarah Owings and Heidi Altman for providing much needed legal expertise and information.
