Yesterday, the Senate passed a budget that contains billions more $$ for the Pentagon. That's right, a huge increase for a department that can’t even keep track of the money it already has. We hope the House does the right thing and rejects this bill.

This is more blatant lawless overreach by the president. Congress MUST assert its spending power.

We need to close the revolving door. We’re grateful to @SenWarren and @SenRickScott for asking these important questions about former Sec. Def. Austin launching a lobbying firm.

Stephen Miller isn't just the architect of the Trump administration’s hardline immigration policies. He has a personal financial stake in them. Learn more in our investigation:

It's crucial for the branch that represents you to have a say in whether America gets involved in a war. That's why Congress needs to take back its war powers. Learn more from out analysis:.

This decision will bring profound harm to communities that have been forced to rely on the courts as a last resort to defend their due process and constitutional rights-- which are currently under assault.

While this ruling takes no clear position on the constitutionality of the admin's birthright citizenship EO, it's still dangerous. Limiting ways people can be protected from authoritarianism facilitates the very trampling of the Constitution #SCOTUS has a duty to stop.

We signed onto this letter to Congress because cutting GAO's funding by 49% is a bad idea, plain and simple. These cuts would reduce Congress’s ability to ensure taxpayer funds are used wisely and to prevent waste, fraud and abuse.

When asked for reassurance that the admin. would not use rescission & deferral packages to undermine Congress's power, Vought was unable to commit, stating that using them was "on the table.". He can't even commit to the admin. acting within the bounds of the law. Unacceptable.

Yesterday senators from both sides of the aisle questioned OMB Dir. Russell Vought about the Trump administration's rescission package. Unfortunately, they didn’t get much insight. Worse, though, was Vought's blatant disregard for the rule of law. (cont ⬇️).
