This is Trump looking to create more problems rather than find a solution. The solution here is to pass @delauro.house.gov bill to fund the law abiding parts of DHS.

Trump: "If the Radical Left Dems don’t immediately agree to let our Airports be FREE & SAFE again, I'll move our patriotic ICE Agents to Airports where they will do Security, including immediate arrest of all Illegal Immigrants, w/heavy emphasis on those from Somalia, who have totally destroyed MN."

Trump: "If the Radical Left Democrats don’t immediately sign an agreement to let our Country, in particular, our Airports, be FREE and SAFE again, I will move our brilliant and patriotic ICE Agents to the Airports where they will do Security like no one has ever seen before, including the immediate arrest of all Illegal Immigrants who have come into our Country, with heavy emphasis on those from Somalia, who have totally destroyed, with the approval of a corrupt Governor, Attorney General, and Congresswoman, Ilhan Omar, the once Great State of Minnesota. I look forward to seeing ICE in action at our Airports. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! President DONALD J. TRUMP"

With the National Cherry Blossom Festival and America 250 celebrations approaching, NPS must immediately end any effort to intentionally cut off public access to DC and the National Mall. More here: beyer.house.gov/news/documen...

@eleanornorton.bsky.social, @mikethompson.house.gov, and I are demanding that NPS immediately halt any plans to remove this bike lane, which is a vital commuter route for DC-area residents.

The Trump administration is removing a protected bike lane that runs along 15th Street from the National Mall to the Tidal Basin. Officials say it causes traffic; bike advocates say it actually makes everyone safer. 51st.news/trump-admini...

Our GUARDRAILS Act would prohibit Trump's previously announced AI executive order from taking effect to ensure states can enact commonsense safeguards in the face of rapidly evolving AI technologies. More on our bill here: beyer.house.gov/news/documen... 4/4

But until federal action ensures safe and responsible AI development, deployment, and use, states must retain the ability to implement policies to protect the American public. 2/

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govMar 20(source)

The WH National AI Policy Framework reinforces the Trump administration’s commitment to preempting state-level AI laws without the establishment of clear, enforceable federal guardrails to address the urgent risks posed by AI systems. It even seeks to limit Congressional regulatory action. 1/

Eid Mubarak to all celebrating the end of the holy month of Ramadan! May this time be filled with love, joy, and peace.

Instead of working on policies to make health care more affordable, the Trump Administration is promoting a sham Trump Rx website with access to drugs that already have cheaper generic options or can be found for the same or lower price through other discount services.

TrumpRx Discounts Only One Drug While 22 Million Americans See Costs Rise

Premiums have more than doubled for millions of Americans since enhanced Affordable Care Act tax credits expired, and millions more are projected to lose coverage over the next decade. The administrat...

Between tariffs and a war with Iran, Trump keeps delivering what people didn’t ask for: higher prices and more uncertainty. Americans didn’t ask for this. And they shouldn’t have to bear the cost of it.

Analysis: Trump keeps asking Americans to sacrifice — for things they don’t want | CNN Politics

About a year ago, President Donald Trump asked Americans to deal with some short-term pain over tariffs. Now he’s doing the same on Iran and oil prices.

A relief to see the courts uphold science, public health, and evidence-based medicine. This is hopefully the first of many steps to undo the damage done by RFK Jr. and his team of quacks.

If Republicans know negotiations remain ongoing and if they truly cared about shutdown impacts, they’d move with Democrats to fund FEMA, TSA, cybersecurity, Secret Service & Coast Guard. My bill does that while keeping ICE & CBP negotiations separate.

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govMar 19(source)

They are out for themselves, with no regard for ethical and honest public service. We've never seen anything like it, and the rot comes from the very top.

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govMar 19(source)

The corruption in this Administration is the worst in American history, and my Republican colleagues continue to turn a blind eye. Before they were even sworn in, senior Trump appointees and their families viewed their positions as a license to steal.

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govMar 19(source)

While Americans are crushed by skyrocketing costs, Lewandowski is raking in profits in corrupt pay to play schemes.  This is blatantly illegal, and demands an independent investigation. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

Some DHS contractors told White House officials they were asked to pay Corey Lewandowski

Some companies complained to the Trump administration that Lewandowski has stood to personally profit from the DHS contracting process. Lewandowski denies the allegations.

Donald Trump and Republicans are trying to confuse Americans on purpose. The SAVE America Act doesn’t just require a simple photo ID. This bill would require a passport or a birth certificate to vote, documents which millions of Americans don’t have access to.

Trump's so-called SAVE America Act will make it more difficult for millions of Americans to vote in our elections. Republicans know the only way they can win is by ripping away Americans' right to vote.

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govMar 19(source)

This administration unleashed a war without adequately anticipating or preparing for its consequences. Now, as energy prices surge, they're scrambling to recover and are even considering lifting sanctions on Iranian oil to bring prices down and... hurt Iran. A clown show.

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govMar 19(source)

When energy costs surge, they're hard to bring down. And everything becomes more expensive: transportation, manufacturing, you name it.

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govMar 19(source)

The idea that this illegal war is great for our long-term economy is laughable. The reckless destruction of oil and gas infrastructure combined with Republican policies to keep us dependent on fossil fuels means increased volatility that sends energy costs soaring.
