Blanket sanctions on North Korea hurt civilians who lack access to essential services and lifesaving care. U.S. sanctions on North Korea should target the oppressive Kim regime and we must make it easier for non-governmental organizations to provide basic needs to North Koreans.
The Supreme Court turned back Trump’s racist attack on birthright citizenship, but now he’s trying to sidestep that ruling with two hateful executive orders. It won’t work. We must stand with immigrant communities to protect equality and justice for all.
Graphic of headline that reads, "Trump Signs Executive Orders Targeting Birthright Citizenship. The orders come after the Supreme Court ruled June 30 that President Trump’s previous efforts to end birthright citizenship were unconstitutional." Full text of story linked in reply.
Steward Health Care was an example—not the exception. When private equity is unchecked and greedy CEOs like Ralph de la Torre evade consequences, people die. We must pass my Health Over Wealth Act to get private equity out of healthcare. People across our country deserve better.
The second Trump admin is again employing "under the radar" tactics to dismantle our immigration system. My new report shines a light on Trump’s administrative attack on due process, lawful status, and our immigration courts to further his racist agenda. This cruelty must end.
The climate crisis is a health crisis. My GREEN Hospitals Act with @jayapal.house.gov will invest over $100 billion to modernize health facilities, cut emissions, create jobs, protect workers, and ensure patients can get care before, during, and after climate disasters.
For 30 years, E-Rate has connected schools and libraries to the internet, including more than $1 billion in support for Massachusetts. Now, Trump’s FCC is threatening its future. We must speak up and save E-Rate—our students and communities cannot afford to lose it.
Ending Temporary Protected Status for Haitians is cruel and wrong. Haiti remains gripped by violence and instability, and the Trump administration is now turning its back on families who have built their lives here and contribute to our communities. We must protect TPS.
Water authorities are facing unprecedented cyber threats, and we can’t hang them out to dry. My Water Intelligence, Security, and Cyber Threat Protection Act was included in the bipartisan WRDA bill. Congress must pass this bill to help utilities secure our water supply.
Hacks on U.S. Water Supply Follow Years of Warnings and Neglect
Federal and state officials are racing to address an assault on the nation’s water supply that they believe is the work of Iranian hackers.
Today, I cast my vote against Trump’s nominee for CDC Director. As long as RFK Jr. is at the helm, any CDC Director will a rubber stamp on his dangerous, anti-science agenda. Enough of the Make America Sick Agenda—RFK must go.
