Anabella Gyasi and her child are now fearful and uncertain about their future, despite doing what we ask people to do: tell the truth.
What message does that send?
Now we’re seeing it again.
A pregnant woman and her young child were detained at Dulles Airport and now face deportation after being transparent with authorities about their situation.

Ana was a victim of domestic violence who refused to seek help because she was terrified it could affect her immigration status. Now, she’s gone.
Ana deserved safety, and she deserved to live.

When this Administration punishes people for being honest, they send the message that it is safer to avoid law enforcement, which can have tragic consequences like it did for my constituent Ana Mena Membreno.

After he was found liable of sexually abusing E. Jean Carroll, Donald Trump is now using the Department of Justice — now led by his former personal lawyer — to go after her. It's disgusting, and no president should be able to abuse the powers of the executive in this way.

Almost half of American households can’t afford basic necessities and instead of legislating to deliver solutions for the American people, my Republican colleagues in Congress are preoccupied with fulfilling the President's vanity project wishes.

This Mental Health Awareness Month, I sat down with @salinas.house.gov to talk about the status of mental healthcare in America. We know there's lots of work to do, and the Mental Health Caucus is working to educate and move solutions forward.
Reducing water pollution and other detrimental effects of toxic mining disposal is commonsense,
and I've introduced the CLEAN UP Mines Act to get it done.

Allowing Donald Trump to desecrate Arlington National Cemetery to inflate his ego would not only be wrong, it would also be illegal and a massive waste of taxpayer money.
As I told @jaketapper.bsky.social, I’m asking my Republican colleagues join my bill to stop it:
Trump, Rubio, and Musk killed many thousands of the poorest and most vulnerable people around the world by cutting off aid for food and medical supplies, which earned us influence and goodwill while saving lives.
But they're spending millions to put gold leaf on bronze horses.

President Trump’s plan to build a 250-foot-tall arch at the south end of the Memorial Bridge could create traffic headaches for commuters, Rep. Don Beyer (D-Virginia) wrote to administration officials.
Reposted byCongressman Don Beyer
The stunning array of white graves blanketing Arlington National Cemetery reminds us of the collective sacrifice of generations of American service members. President Trump's arch would replace that view with a monument to his ego. I'm supporting Rep. Don Beyer's bill to block it.
Republican majorities spent years investigating recent Democratic administrations for far less.
Trump and his family engage every day in some of the most blatant acts of corruption we’ve ever seen, often with taxpayer money, and Republicans in Congress are nowhere to be found.
New: A top White House aide intervened to get a $620 million Pentagon loan for a company tied to Donald Trump Jr.
“The call came from the White House: We have to get this done,” said one person involved.

The City of Alexandria and Representative Don Beyer invite the community to a memorial honoring the 67 lives lost in the January 2025 Potomac River mid-air collision.
Join us Monday, June 1, at 5:30 p.m. at Rivergate City Park (2 Montgomery St.). Details: alexandriava.gov/c/62495
Arlington National Cemetery is sacred ground, the resting place for our heroes.
Desecrating this hallowed space to build a monument to Trump’s ego is wrong, it would waste taxpayer money, and break the law.
I'm introducing a bill with @titus.house.gov and others to stop this:
