Trump is ignoring the Supreme Court and saying he wants to deport U.S. citizens too. Enough of the lawlessness. It’s beyond time for the Trump Administration to end this and obey the courts.    Bring Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia home NOW.

Trump says he'd like to deport US citizens to El Salvador: "I'd like to go a step further. I don't know what the laws are, we always have to obey the laws, but we also have homegrown criminals that push people into subways... I'd like to include them in the group of people to get out of the country"

The Republican budget includes $7 TRILLION in giveaways to the wealthiest while making the largest cuts to Medicaid and food assistance in history. I oppose taking food and health care from working families to pay for tax cuts for billionaires. Simple as that. I voted NO.
Congressman Juan Vargas@vargas.house.govApr 10(source)
Kilmar Abrego Garcia is a father. A husband. A legal resident. The Trump Administration wrongly deported him to a prison in El Salvador with NO DUE PROCESS and called it an "administrative error". Yesterday, I joined his family to demand his return and demand justice. #BringKilmarHome

For decades, undocumented immigrants have trusted the IRS when it encouraged them to file. They've paid taxes in good faith, contributing nearly $100 BILLION per year and supporting social services they can't even access. Not only is this a total betrayal, but it's also illegal. We'll fight this.

The IRS has agreed to share information with ICE to help locate people for deportation, court records show, a fundamental change in how the tax collector uses its tightly regulated records. nyti.ms/3XQ9vWk

Elon Musk and Trump are making it harder for Americans to get the benefits they've EARNED. This isn’t a game. Social Security is a lifeline for millions and they’re putting it in jeopardy. Hands OFF!

Retirees and disabled people are facing chronic website outages and other access problems as they attempt to log in to their online Social Security accounts, even as they are being directed to do more of their business with the agency online.

"The United States Government has no legal authority to snatch a person who is lawfully present in the United States off the street and remove him from the country without due process." Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia must be reunited with his family.

BREAKING: The 4th Circuit has *denied* the Trump administration's effort to resist an order to return Kilmar Abrego Garcia to the United States by midnight tonight. Judge Xinis' order is still in effect. s3.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

🚨 A judge just ordered Trump to return Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a father with legal status who was deported in "error" to a Salvadoran megaprison, to the United States. In America, we have due process. While I'm glad to see today's ruling, this should have NEVER happened to begin with.

BREAKING: The Social Security Administration could lay off thousands more employees next week, WaPo reports. Some 7,000 jobs have already been cut through firings and buyouts. Elon Musk's DOGE is demanding more cuts to dismantle the services that 74 million rely on.
Social Security faces thousands more job cuts even with service in tailspin
The agency has already seen 7,000 job losses from dramatic cost-cutting efforts by Trump and Musk — even as they promise no benefit reductions.

Rumeysa was grabbed off the street by plain-clothes ICE agents and shipped to a detention center over 1,300 miles away from her school. She had a valid student visa. She hasn't been charged with a crime. It's an outrage – and it's not an isolated incident as Trump continues to attack immigrants.
Tufts University pushes for release of student grabbed off the street by immigration officials
The school's declaration in federal court on behalf of Rümeysa Öztürk is some of the strongest pushback by a university against the Trump administration's arrests of foreign students.

Trump just imposed one of the largest tax hikes in U.S. history. These tariffs will cost the average family nearly $4,000 *per year.* This is a completely self-inflicted economic disaster, brought to you by the Trump Administration.
Stocks plunge and businesses recoil after across-the-board tariffs
Other countries vowed to respond after President Donald Trump imposed higher tariffs on imports from much of the world, including many U.S. allies.

This is a big win for working families. I was one of the 200+ Members of Congress who filed a brief in this lawsuit to save the CFPB – the only agency dedicated to protecting consumers from financial fraud and predatory lenders. We'll keep the pressure on.
