The DHS funding bill does allocate additional funding for bodycams, limit the Department’s transfer authority and provide robust support for FEMA.
While these provisions are encouraging, they fall short of addressing the impunity afforded to ICE — and the moral rot it has allowed to fester.
In Virginia’s Fourth, I hear from communities in Chesterfield, Henrico, Petersburg, Richmond and beyond about ICE escalating its tactics to the detriment of public safety and civil liberties.
None of this has served to make us safer, and this disturbing pattern of behavior demands drastic action.
This past year has seen horrific breaches of fundamental constitutional rights at the hands of ICE.
Overly aggressive agents have entered homes without a warrant; detained people without due process, some in horrendous conditions; terrorized immigrant communities and shed American blood.
Today’s bill to fund the Department of Homeland Security does not go nearly far enough to rein in an out-of-control ICE and hold it accountable for the chaos and fear it has unleashed.
I voted no. 🧵
Roe protected abortion rights for 50 years. Dobbs ended it.
As Chair of the Abortion Rights and Access Task Force, I joined @ReproCaucus Co-Chair @RepDegette on this anniversary of Roe to hold a roundtable with @PlannedParenthood CEO @alexismcgill to discuss the work that remains to be done.
This weekend, Virginia inaugurated a new Governor, Lieutenant Governor and Attorney General. I was excited to participate in the historic celebrations as Abigail Spanberger became the first woman Governor in the Commonwealth’s history.

Trump’s EPA said it would disregard the value of human life in regulatory analysis. This decision exposes Americans to more oil and gas pollution.
During today’s committee markup, I joined @energycommerce.bsky.social Democrats to urge my Republican colleagues to oppose this rollback.

Dr. King’s dream was to make America live up to the ideals upon which it was founded. His nightmare was that laws alone would not systemically address the impact of over 300 years of slavery and Jim Crow.
I led a @cbc.house.gov Special Order Hour to discuss our work to make his dream a reality.
Shirley Chisolm took her oath of office as the first Black woman in Congress 57 years ago. Today, I am one of 31 Black women in the 119th Congress.
Chisholm wrote, “If they don’t give you a seat at the table, bring a folding chair.” We won’t stop pulling up chairs as we work to expand the table.
Read the full report by @jecdems.bsky.social here:
The Trump Administration has made life harder for millions thanks to its reckless tariff policies, devastating cuts to our health care system and SNAP, failure to bring down costs and more.
Virginia families paid $1,269 more in 2025 due to rising inflation. Nationwide, they paid over $1,600 more.
I remain focused on sounding the alarm, sharing stories of how his actions impact communities, and fighting attempts to roll back progress.
One year ago today, the world watched as Donald Trump took his oath of office as the 47th President of the United States.
Since then? Trump has unleashed chaos; stoked division with his war on DEI; traumatized our federal workforce; intimidated immigrant communities; and sowed fear in our country.
In her own words, “I’m a doer, hands-on kind of person. If I can see the road and see where it turns and see where it went, I am more sure.” Her precision, perseverance and leadership paved the way for generations of scientists and engineers.
Virginia’s 4th District has lost a trailblazing native daughter. Born in Dinwiddie County, educated at Virginia State and Virginia Tech, Dr. Gladys West was one of the Hidden Figures whose research led to the development of the GPS and transformed how we understand and navigate the Earth.

In 1962, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. toured Virginia’s Fourth as part of his “People to People” tour recruiting volunteers for the Southern Christian Leadership Conference’s Freedom Corp.
Today, I joined Mount Level Baptist Church to commemorate Dr. King’s visit and celebrate his legacy.
