Congress has a good opportunity to renew AGOA and Haiti trade preference programs that expired last year, and we should take it.
These programs spurred investment in emerging markets, growing their economies and lowering our prices. My statement for @newdems.bsky.social:
Jerome Powell won’t bow to Trump’s pressure to dramatically slash interest rates, which would drive up inflation.
So, Trump is turning to his pattern of abusing the Justice Department to intimidate, silence, or even jail him, just as he’s done to other political opponents.
And the corollary: pardons and non-prosecutions for the president's friends and allies.
This kind of corruption is the hallmark of criminal justice systems in countries you don't want to live in.
“Make America Healthy Again”
Trump's phony investigation of Fed Chair Powell on made up charges jeopardizes Fed independence, a key to our economic success.
It's part of a larger pattern of Trump trying to prosecute and jail those who cross him—thuggish, autocratic behavior that threatens our democracy.
Takeaways from this morning's December jobs report:
- Negative job growth in the final quarter of 2025
- The worst year for job growth outside a recession in 20+ years
- Manufacturing jobs plummeting
- Barely any job growth since Trump announced tariffs
This is not good.
Leaders in the party that once claimed to stand for individual freedom and limited government now say if you don’t do what the masked men say, regardless of whether their orders are legal or contradictory, you won’t “get to keep your life.”
They may kill you without trial.

December jobs numbers are out: Employment continues to slow, and we added +50k jobs. The unemployment rate fell a tick to 4.4%.
Oooph, revisions are brutal: October revised down -68k to -173k; November revised down -8k to +56k. Remember: The Fed thinks these numbers are overstated by 60k.

Every day more Americans are hurt by the Republican health care crisis.
But Democrats put forward this bill to help the American people by extending health care tax credits, and forced a vote on it.
Thanks to a few sensible colleagues on the other side, that bill just passed.
The Trump Administration is brazenly lying to justify murder, telling us to ignore what we've seen on video.
We must honor Renee Good's memory by demanding justice and accountability.
Congress and authorities must investigate and hold the perpetrators accountable.

The FBI must work with the professionals at the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension to conduct a thorough and transparent investigation of the shooting of Renee Nicole Good by an ICE officer yesterday.
This has to be about justice, not politics.
Reposted byCongressman Don Beyer
Thousands of Minnesotans gathered last night to honor Renee Nicole Good. We will never accept that a single federal agent can be judge, jury, and executioner in our streets. ICE needs to get out of Minneapolis.
Everyone should ask why the Trump Administration keeps lying about this — why they are telling you to disbelieve your own eyes.
An American citizen in a peaceful neighborhood gunned down by masked agents sent there to make people afraid.
The Vice President’s lies are despicable.
The video shows that the driver of the vehicle turned her wheels to avoid the ICE agents who surrounded her, screamed profanity at her, and gave her conflicting orders.
They escalated the situation, put the public in danger, killed her without justification, and kept firing at her.
The Trump Administration sent ICE to communities like Minneapolis to sow fear and division.
A masked ICE agent just killed an unarmed woman without justification, and the Administration is lying about it.
This doesn't make us safer. We need an investigation and accountability.

I want to express my deepest sympathy to the family and loved ones of the woman killed by ICE this morning.
She should not have died today. This should not have happened. I can’t imagine the heartbreak you are going through and the grief you are enduring.
Reposted byCongressman Don Beyer
There is no evidence that the officer who shot the woman was injured at ALL, despite Trump’s claim here that he is “recovering in the hospital.”
Immediately after the shooting you can see him walking completely normally, and he stayed on the scene for a while before driving off.
