For 40 years, my dad worked as a short-order cook and my mom cleaned houses. It’s because of their hard work and sacrifices that I stand here today, ready to preserve and fight for the American Dream.

Trump is quietly cutting sweetheart deals for known gang members while his ICE and CBP agents go after hardworking, law abiding immigrants.

Alejandro bravely reminded us all what’s at stake today: Despite what he says, Trump isn’t only going after criminals. He’s going after hardworking people like Alejandro’s dad who love this country and call it home. They belong here.

The fact of the matter is that Donald Trump has gone too far, and the public is turning against him.

Thanks to Trump’s tax bill, health insurance premiums will rise by an average of $700 a year for nearly 20 million Americans. Working families shouldn’t pay more to give the billionaires a tax break.

The majority of Americans agree: Donald Trump has gone too far. No one opposes deporting violent criminals — but that’s not who these raids are targeting. ICE has arrested farmworkers, hospital patients, even American citizens.

Good. Trump should never have diverted these Marines from their core mission for his own political stunt.

Attorneys general across the country agree –– ICE agents should clearly identify themselves as federal officials. My VISIBLE Act is a commonsense solution toprotect public safety and the safety of agents.

🚨The Trump Administration just gave ICE access to the private health records of over 79 million Medicaid recipients, including their race, ethnicity, and home addresses. Weaponizing this personal information to go after immigrants who need emergency services isn’t just cruel,.

I am closely monitoring the explosion at the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department’s Training Center. My thoughts are with the families of those reportedly killed and the entire LA County Sheriff staff as we await more information.

AG Bondi’s announcement that they plan to reopen Alcatraz is a ridiculous, costly stunt — Trump’s latest distraction from the Epstein scandal. Release the files.

It is hard to believe it’s been five years since we lost the conscience of Congress, Congressman John Lewis. From the March on Washington to a bridge across Selma to the halls of Congress, John Lewis called out the contradictions of our country and urged us ALL to stand up for

This is not business as usual. I’m blocking Trump’s National Guard nominee until he pulls every last troop he needlessly deployed out of LA. Our service members didn’t sign up to be pawns in his political vendetta against California.

At the same time, cuts to foreign aid will end low-cost, high-impact programs while undermining U.S. national security, creating a vacuum in global leadership that China and Russia are more than happy to fill.

🧵On the heels of handing out $4.5 trillion in tax breaks to corporations and their billionaire donors, Republicans are trying to distract from their America-last reconciliation bill by gutting billions for essential public broadcasting services and foreign aid programs.
