All of us have seen the tragedy of Gaza.
We've seen how Netanyahu's government has used US weapons to kill indiscriminately and create famine.
I will not participate in this carnage.
When Congress votes on sending more offensive weapons to Israel today, I will vote no. 1/

If true, this is the right decision. I want to commend the President and Secretary of State for making a decision consistent with American values. I was glad to join many colleagues in Congress in urging this action. Most of all, thanks to the American people who have spoken up.

San Antonio's servicemembers, cybersecurity pros, & business travelers spend hours stuck on layovers when traveling to the Pentagon and the nation's capital.
I'm pushing the Congress to approve new flight slots at
@Reagan_Airport

@SATAirport

Incredible historical document here: Blinken says Israel’s PR is failing because social media allows people a direct look at what’s happening, shorn of the ability to mediate it, and it lands with emotional resonance. Romney then says yes, that’s why we moved to ban TikTok

Along w/many others,
@CoryBooker
and I have pushed for this for years, as DACA recipients already pay to support ACA coverage.
