Trump is doing Big Oil’s bidding yet again – and this time he's calling it "national security." His minions voted to let oil and gas companies ignore protections for endangered species when they drill in the Gulf of Mexico.
And Gulf communities are going to pay the price for this corruption.

@rephuffman.bsky.social: "The corrupt bargain between the Trump administration and the fossil fuel industry will not stand. My Democratic colleagues and I will fight this in court & we’ll have the support of every community in America that values public integrity and a healthy environment."

Trump started a war with Iran that is driving gas prices through the roof. Now his administration is using that crisis as a pretext to hand oil companies a blank check to destroy the Gulf.
And Gulf Coast communities and wildlife will pay for it.

Gulf Coast fishing families, shrimpers, tourism operators, and coastal communities that depend on a healthy ocean are now at the mercy of an industry with a track record of greed, catastrophic spills, and zero accountability.

Sea turtles, sperm whales, sharks, rays, and corals all lose their protections under this decision.

There are 50 Rice's whales left alive on Earth. They live nowhere else but the Gulf of Mexico. The admin’s own scientists said last year drilling would drive the species to extinction.
Today, Trump's cabinet removed every protection standing between the oil industry & these animals’ deaths.

He claims protecting endangered sea creatures in the Gulf is getting in the way of "national security." No administration, Republican or Democrat, has ever tried anything this sweeping and reckless.

This is happening because Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth invoked a never-before-used loophole in the Endangered Species Act.

BREAKING: The Trump administration just voted to let Big Oil ignore every endangered species protection in the Gulf of Mexico.
In a single meeting, Trump's corrupt cabinet gave oil companies a free pass to kill endangered whales & sea turtles so they can drill without limits.

E-bikes are affordable, convenient, and sustainable, but we need ways to keep kids and folks in our community safe when using them. My bill will help define federal e-bike standards and give local governments resources to enhance their safety programs.
ICE agents are now checking travelers' IDs at airports – a job they're not even remotely trained to do. This is a blatant government overreach that does nothing but intimidate people and distract from real priorities like funding our government and paying real TSA agents.

🚨 Breaking: House Natural Resources SHUT DOWN over Don Jr. Subpoena! 🚨
We know Trump and his family are lining their own pockets with corrupt government deals. But, when we tried to subpoena his Jr. to answer questions today, Republicans shut it down. ⬇️

Donald Trump Jr. bought into a company. Three months later, his dad's Pentagon handed them $620 million in taxpayer dollars. Democrats forced a vote to subpoena Don Jr. today to come clean about this shady deal.
But Republicans blocked it and even shut down the hearing to protect him.
Make It Home’s new furniture warehouse is going to help a lot of low-income families and underserved youth throughout our community. It was great to attend the grand opening and tour the space, and I'm glad I could get some federal funding to help finish this project.
Ever since Trump launched his reckless war in Iran, Americans have faced ridiculously high prices at the pump – and we're being hit the hardest in California. Your taxpayer dollars should go toward making your life more affordable, not wage a senseless war.
Service members risk their lives for this country and deserve dignity in return.
But Trump is deporting them in his rogue ICE campaign - and House Republicans are covering it up. This administration continues to hand out betrayal after betrayal.
We have Trump and House Republicans to thank for all the airport chaos right now. Instead of working with Democrats to fund airport security and disaster aid, they're using American travelers as political pawns to keep ICE unchecked and pass their insane bill to take away your right to vote.
Health care costs are skyrocketing due to Republicans' cuts in the Big, Ugly Law. Meanwhile, Trump’s war of choice in Iran is costing American taxpayers at least $1 billion per day. Our priority should be making life better for Americans, not fighting forever wars abroad.
Democrats lowered health care costs by an average of $2,400 per family through the Affordable Care Act. But Republicans slashed that coverage for over 20 million Americans to pay for billionaire tax breaks.
You deserve better, and Republicans need to help us reinstate these credits immediately.
