I'm holding a press conference RIGHT NOW on the PROTECT Immigration Act — a bill to stop Trump from using local police in ICE raids. Join me and @jayapal.house.gov, @mcbride.house.gov, @foushee.house.gov, @aclu.org, and @immcouncil.org by tuning into the live below.
Protect Immigration Press Conference
On Thursday, December 18, Chicago Congressman Mike Quigley will hold a press conference in Washington alongside Congresswoman Jayapal, Congresswoman McBride,...

Can you imagine a child who struggles to understand English, representing themselves in a legal proceeding, trying to cross-examine a witness, and going up against a seasoned immigration attorney? It’s completely absurd. But this is what Trump and Republicans want.
Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govDec 18(source)
Trump attempted to overturn a free and fair election and incited an insurrection. And the American people deserve to know what Jack Smith’s investigation found. Democrats will keep pushing for transparency even as Republicans try to cover it up.
Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govDec 18(source)
The American people deserve to hear, directly from Jack Smith, what his investigation into Trump found. Instead of that transparency, today Republicans brought him in for a closed door deposition, all in an effort to cover up Trump’s attempt to overturn a free and fair election.

TPS recipients are valuable members of our communities — many of them have been here for decades working, paying taxes, building families. Instead of stripping their legal status and forcing them back to warzones, as Trump is doing, we should be giving them a pathway to citizenship.
Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govDec 17(source)
The TPS program lets immigrants who are already in the US stay longer if their countries are devastated by war, natural disaster, or other harsh conditions. Trump is dismantling it and forcing those people back to danger.

Trump’s unlawful boat strikes and naval blockade around Venezuela are appalling violations of both U.S. and international law. The American people do not want another pointless forever war. I’m voting YES on a resolution to rein in Trump’s illegal actions.

Trump and Speaker Johnson are trying to block a vote to extend ACA tax credits. Democrats created a discharge petition and got 218 signatures — a majority of the House. Speaker Johnson needs to bring our bill to the floor NOW and save American families from a premium hike.
Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govDec 17(source)
Trump’s ICE is going after immigrants who are VOLUNTARILY leaving the U.S. and sending them to inhumane detention centers. Why? Just so they can funnel more money into private, for-profit prisons. The cruelty is the point. www.tpr.org/news/2025-12...
'Operation Irish Goodbye': ICE to detain migrants voluntarily leaving the US as part of Trump's deportation campaign
Detaining migrants who leave voluntarily may be a way to impose long-term reentry penalties, since formal removal can bar people from returning for years or even permanently.
Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govDec 17(source)
🚨 HUGE NEWS: Democrats' discharge petition to force a vote on extending the ACA subsidies and lowering premium costs for millions has gotten enough signatures. Speaker Johnson tried to block this bill because he doesn't care if your premiums double or triple. We do.
Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govDec 17(source)
Trump’s attacks on the H-1B visa system will mean that our country loses scientists, researchers, and new innovations that drive our economy and communities. We should be reforming our legal immigration system, not destroying it.

WA: Washington’s flooding has been declared a state of emergency. If your property has been impacted by the atmospheric rivers, there are financial relief options available to you.  www.kuow.org/stories/wash...
How WA property owners can get financial relief after the flood
More than 100,000 Washington residents have been advised to evacuate their homes in the wake of catastrophic flooding across the region. That’s about double the number of Washington homes and business...

Republicans want to give ICE the power to strip-search immigrant children to look for so-called “gang tattoos” and send them to prison-like facilities. Yes, the same ICE that sent men to El Salvador for soccer and autism awareness tattoos.

“The Trump administration had stopped USAID’s funding to World Relief. Their clinic, their lifeline, was closing… Why would the US just cut off their medical care in the middle of a deadly outbreak?” USAID saved countless lives. Trump is destroying them. www.propublica.org/article/usai...
Trump Officials Celebrated With Cake After Slashing Aid. Then People Died of Cholera.
Behind closed doors in Washington, top advisers made a series of decisions that had devastating repercussions for the poorest country on earth. We went to South Sudan and found people who died as a re...

Today, House Republicans wasted committee time targeting the Southern Poverty Law Center, going after the organization’s finances and ties to Democratic administrations. It’s stunning hypocrisy coming from the party of the Koch brothers and the Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025.
Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govDec 16(source)
Today, House Republicans are trying to pass a bill that treats all unaccompanied immigrant children as unvetted criminals, subjecting them to invasive bodily searches and prolonged detention. It’s a cruel, inhumane, and dangerous set of policies.
Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govDec 16(source)
These comments from Senator Tuberville and Congressman Fine are disgusting, racist, and Islamophobic. They have zero place in our society, much less in Congress, and must be universally condemned immediately. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
Some Republican lawmakers call for mass expulsion of American Muslims
Comments from Rep. Randy Fine (R-Florida) and Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-Alabama) reflect a brazen Islamophobic sentiment being voiced by some in the party.
