I join millions around the world in mourning the passing of Pope Francis.
Like thousands of El Pasoans, I was fortunate to attend his historic visit and mass in Ciudad Juárez with my mom.

People will have less access to healthcare because Republicans decided the wealthy need more tax cuts.
All of this is interconnected; as Republicans make massive, harmful cuts to programs and organizations that provide critical services like cancer screenings, communities like ours are severely impacted.
By withholding Title X funds from Planned Parenthood health centers, the government is making it harder for people to afford the health care they need – birth control, cancer screenings, STI testing and treatment, and wellness exams.
During a visit this week to Planned Parenthood, it was brought to my attention that 75% of Planned Parenthood's patients rely on Title X funding, which Donald Trump froze.
A thread.
I’m not holding my breath.

Earlier this week, I sent an email to nearly 200k El Pasoans asking about Trump’s job approval.
It should come as no surprise that following his disastrous tariffs, his disdain for the rule of law, and more, 79% of respondents said they did not approve of his job performance.
I am saddened by the loss of two U.S. service members who were killed in yesterday's accident in Santa Teresa.
I'm praying that the third service member who remains in serious condition recovers, and I'm thinking of the families of all involved.

"74% of Americans believe that the wealthy will benefit from Trump's trade and tariff policies."
Americans are seeing right through Republican lies about the economy and their budget.

Director John Ratcliffe broke the law.
He must resign.

While Americans lost trillions in retirement funds because of Trump’s erratic trade war, some members of Congress benefitted.
Members should be banned from buying & selling stocks. Until then, I’m urging the Ethics Committee to look into this exploitation.

The two men responsible for sending and detaining an innocent man to a gulag both claim to be powerless?
They are both wanna-be dictators in every way possible.
How long before they do this to a U.S. citizen? This is an outrage.
Chag Pesach Sameach to all those beginning their Passover celebrations tonight. Wishing you and your family a meaningful holiday!
Detaining children causes lasting harm and does nothing to deter migration.
Along with @jayapal.house.gov, @raskin.house.gov, and @benniethompson.bsky.social, we’re calling on the Trump administration to end this practice.

Did you keep your maiden name after marriage?
Does your birth certificate match your current legal name?
Do you have a valid U.S. passport?
If you answered no to any of these questions, you won’t be able to register to vote under the Republican SAVE Act.

There’s only one group this budget helps: billionaires. Hard working Americans will pay for those massive tax breaks with cuts to Medicaid and nutrition programs, and our children will inherit explosive debt.
