This weekend, Trump is trying to rededicate America as a "Christian Nation". How about we rededicate ourselves back to reality? 250 years ago, our founders created America to be free from religion. And my colleagues in the Freethought Caucus have the receipts.

I spoke with an ICE whistleblower who was instructed to teach agents that they could enter homes without a judicial warrant. The public deserves answers.

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govMay 15(source)

We all need to be talking about Trump’s proposed $1.5 trillion war budget! At a time when families are paying more to put food on the table, gas in the car, and get the healthcare they deserve, this budget proposal is a giveaway to defense contractors at the expense of the American people.

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govMay 14(source)

The American people are tired of presidents abusing their power by spending billions of our taxpayer dollars on unnecessary wars. I’ve been fighting for these basic checks and balances for years and will continue to defend our Constitution.

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govMay 14(source)

Today, I voted YES on the latest War Powers Resolution to end Trump's illegal war in Iran. The Constitution is clear: only Congress has the power to declare war. Unfortunately, not enough House Republicans voted for this and it failed.

Follow the money. Amazon and Blue Origin, both owned by Jeff Bezos, have billions of dollars in military contracts.

Whistleblower Aid@wbaidlaw.bsky.socialMay 14(source)

"The system is fully non-functional at this point," our client ICE whistleblower Ryan Schwank told @pocan.house.gov about the internal mechanisms to report wrongdoing in the administration. Watch the full episode: youtu.be/tDFe_nmZqXo?...

I’m excited to see the progress made on what will be Madison’s first homeless shelter for men, providing a safe, welcoming, and dignified environment for Madison's most vulnerable. I was honored to secure $2 million in federal funds to help make this 44,000+ square feet shelter come to life!

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govMay 14(source)

Republicans in Congress let the ACA tax credits expire. Now premiums have skyrocketed, and more than one in five Americans enrolled in an ACA plan simply can’t pay. We need to bring back the tax credits and make healthcare more affordable for every American! www.notus.org/healthcare/a...

One in Five HealthCare.gov Enrollees Dropped Insurance Coverage This Year

More Americans are dropping out of health care marketplaces than usual, after Congress let pandemic-era Affordable Care Act subsidies lapse.

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govMay 13(source)

Today, I offered an amendment to the Commerce, Justice, & Science funding bill to prohibit the Trump administration from targeting any person or organization solely for exercising their constitutionally-protected First Amendment rights. Every Republican in Committee voted no. (3/3)

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govMay 13(source)

Those are vague and undefined terms, and this directive is a clear effort to silence criticism and dissent by infringing on Americans' freedom of speech. (2/3)

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govMay 13(source)

Last fall, the Trump administration issued an Orwellian directive called NSPM-7 which would allow them to investigate anyone they deem to be "anti-Christian," "anti-capitalist," or "anti-American," for domestic terrorism. (1/3)

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govMay 13(source)

Thanks to a whistleblower, we now know ICE was inadequately training new agents and teaching practices that violate the Fourth Amendment. On today’s podcast, I spoke with @ryanschwank.bsky.social, who blew the lid off their training failures. youtu.be/tDFe_nmZqXo

While Americans are seeing rising costs in every aspect of their lives, Trump is focused on… 💰 A $1 billion golden ballroom 🔵 Painting the reflecting pool blue 🥊 Hosting a UFC fight on the White House lawn for his birthday (1/2)

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govMay 12(source)

That's because Trump only cares about his own financial situation.

Trump on Iran War: Reporter: What extent are Americans’ financial situation motivating you to make a deal? Trump: Not even a little bit. I don't think about Americans’ financial situation

It makes me so happy to see the beagles from Ridglan Farms on their way to loving homes!

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govMay 12(source)

BREAKING: Inflation skyrocketed to the highest point in three years because of Trump’s war with Iran.

Consumer prices rose 3.8% annually in April, the highest since May 2023

The consumer price index was expected to increase by 3.7% annually in April, according to the Dow Jones consensus.

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govMay 12(source)

Good news is rare in Washington these days, so watching countless beagles being rescued from Ridglan Farms was a welcome change. I’ll continue working to ensure that what happened at Ridglan never happens again.

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govMay 11(source)

Last minute, I went to thank the volunteers from both groups for their work. I’ll continue to fight for loving homes for all these dogs and all the remaining dogs until facilities like these no longer exist.
