President Trump's executive order politicizing the federal workforce is a recipe for corruption that would make the country less safe.

Donald Trump is diverting federal law enforcement away from their counterterrorism mission just three weeks after one of the deadliest terrorist attacks in recent history, in New Orleans. This does not make us safer.
NEW: Trump DOJ officials issue first broad directives, shifting resources from counterterrorism to immigration enforcement. Likely to prompt strife with local and state cops on Joint Terrorism Task Forces across country

How Trump's hiring freeze and civil service attacks affect the American people:
Today I was contacted by a constituent who is a mental health professional hired to treat veterans at the V.A.
Trump’s executive actions are preventing them from starting work and providing care to American veterans.
Trump pardoned this man, who was:
- Convicted of domestic violence battery by strangulation
- Convicted of battery on law enforcement officer
- Charged with assaulting police and using an explosive on Jan. 6
And Trump just released hundreds more violent criminals like him into American communities
Trump’s executive actions are a collection of bad ideas, many of dubious legality, clearly unconstitutional, or poorly drafted.
Some will raise costs.
Trump was evidently more interested in scamming his supporters with meme coins than he was in following through on promises to address inflation.
My thoughts today are with the officers who defended the Capitol on January 6th, 2021, and with the families of the officers who defended the Capitol that day who are no longer with us. I represent many of them, and will continue to advocate for them as long as I serve here.
Trump's pardons signal his embrace of his supporters’ violent attack on the Capitol.
His attempts to erase or rewrite history have failed utterly in the face of his choice to pardon hundreds of violent criminals for brutal assaults that left hundreds of police officers wounded.
By pardoning those who carried out these heinous crimes, Donald Trump made our country less safe and betrayed the law enforcement heroes who protected the Capitol at great personal cost.
No one who remains silent in this moment can ever credibly claim to "back the blue."
Trump pardoned hundreds of people who pleaded guilty to assaulting law enforcement, many of them with deadly weapons, and pardoned or commuted the sentences of over a dozen violent criminals convicted of seditious conspiracy.

Trump pardoned the people who beat and tazed my constituent, Officer Michael Fanone, who gave a brain injury to my constituent Officer Jeff Smith days before he died by suicide, and who attacked and sprayed my constituent, Officer Brian Sicknick, with bear spray before his death from two strokes.
With these pardons and commutations Donald Trump embraced violence and lawlessness.
This injustice is a gross betrayal of the service and sacrifice of the courageous officers who defended the Capitol on January 6th, but it does not diminish their patriotism.
My statement:
*Youngkin, obviously
Oligarchy watch: four of the five richest people in the world just got prime seating with their guests in the Capitol Rotunda while governors of U.S. states - including Governor Youngin - were made to watch Trump's inauguration ceremony on TV screens in an overflow room.
We remember Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., whose vision of equality and justice continues to inspire us to believe in and pursue the promise of America. And we honor his life and vision with action to make the world a better place.
Holding my first town hall of the year right now at Yorktown High School in Arlington. Questions so far covered a wide range of policy areas including inflation and the economy, climate change, health care, foreign wars, and much more. Thanks to everyone who came out tonight!

(1/4) @repdelbene.bsky.social and @beyer.house.gov have today reintroduced legislation re. Congressional tariff authority.
This is important. Congress needs to exert its authority in order to prevent a massive tax increase that will raise prices for Americans.

It is crazy, dangerous, and a stupid waste of money for taxpayers to subsidize fossil fuels when we just hit the 1.5°C global warming threshold and the last 10 years were the hottest on record. Our bill would end expensive giveaways to oil and gas companies: beyer.house.gov/news/documen...
I am glad an agreement has finally been reached, and that the hostages who have endured horrific captivity will be coming home. This should have happened long ago, and if it had many more innocent people might still be alive.
Decades of failed American policies only made life worse for the Cuban people without achieving any of our stated aims, all while driving a big spike in migration to the US. We can push for freedom and human rights more effectively through engagement.
