Trump and Republicans would rather give a $7 trillion tax break to billionaires than invest in our kids.
Even though study after study shows that investing in early childhood education benefits our country far more than letting the rich pay less in taxes.

In celebration of #AANHPIHeritageMonth, I’d like to take a moment to recognize an outstanding AANHPI leader in our district — Joe Nguyễn, the Director of WA State Commerce, who advocates for investing in and enhancing economic opportunities for all Washingtonians!
Every day, my office gets dozens of calls from people who rely on this funding and are deeply concerned. This is money essential for programs, including education, feeding the hungry, and public safety.

Head Start, SNAP, affordable housing, and Medicaid are all programs that help keep working families afloat.
They’re also all programs that Trump and Republicans are trying to cut.
Not on our watch. Great to join @momsrising.org to defend families and kids across America.
Today, our legal system worked: Rumeysa Öztürk was finally released from ICE detention after being unlawfully detained for more than six weeks.
Every American should understand that if Trump can kidnap and disappear Rumeysa off the street, he can do the same to any of us.
CBP is revoking protections for the most vulnerable people in its custody — pregnant women, babies, the elderly.
Every day, I think that we have reached the apex of cruelty this administration can inflict on immigrants, and yet it still continues to grow. Read my full statement.
Trump’s reckless tariffs are already raising costs for Americans, on everything from wheelchairs to comic books — and they brought receipts to show it.
We need to end these pointless trade wars, lower prices, and deliver for families. www.npr.org/2025/05/08/g...
Trump and Republicans want to give the richest 0.1% a $300,000/year tax cut.
And for the rest of us? Breadcrumbs.
There are now 1,000 measles cases in this country. And over a third of cases are children.
RFK Jr. and the Trump admin’s misinformation about this virus and vaccines are dangerous and could cost lives.
The Supreme Court ruled 9-0 that Trump must facilitate the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. His own administration admitted before a judge that his deportation was an “administrative error.”
This entire situation is a stain on our nation. Bring Kilmar back NOW.
As Public Service Recognition Week comes to a close, I want to take a moment to thank all our dedicated public workers for their service and for all the work they do to make our lives better.
As Trump continues his attacks on federal workers, I’ll keep fighting to defend them.
I’m an immigrant. I came to the United States to study, become a citizen, and contribute because I believe so much in the promise of America.
When Trump rips away student visas and terrorizes students, that hurts our entire country.
Trump just fired the head of FEMA — three weeks before the start of hurricane season in the Atlantic.
He’s kneecapping our biggest disaster agency, leaving millions of Americans in danger and without lifesaving information and aid.
Medicaid saves lives, and we will not stand by as Trump and Republicans work to cut this program and take away health care from millions of Americans, just so they can give a tax cut to billionaires.
Proud to rally with @caringacross.org to protect Medicaid.
Democrats need to show that we aren’t just fighting back — we’re fighting FORWARD.
Let’s show the country what our vision is: big investments in housing, universal child care, bringing down costs, making health care affordable, and more.
Trump’s plans to deport people to Libya without due process are illegal, full stop.
This is about all of us. If Trump can ignore due process rights for some, he can ignore them for everyone. We must loudly stand up to and fight back against these authoritarian acts.
Here are this week’s 3 bad things and 3 good things you need to know about to stay in-the-know!
Keep fighting and stay engaged. Our resistance is strong.
Trump wants to send people to a prison in Libya described as a “hellscape” in a country where the U.S. literally has a “Do Not Travel” advisory.
Absolutely not. The courts have been clear that this is illegal. Follow the law.
Americans are rationing insulin, going to bed hungry, and can’t afford rent or child care.
So what did we do this morning in the House to help people?
Absolutely nothing. Republicans wasted precious time in Congress to rename Gulf of Mexico. I voted NO.
Under Trump, the U.S. economy has shrunk for the first time in years. He’s not lowering costs, he’s not tackling inflation.
He’s just slashing critical programs like Medicaid so Republicans can pass a $7 trillion tax cut for billionaires.
