The humanitarian situation in Syria has long been unimaginable. But now, families are returning, hoping for security and safety under their new government. Assisting the rebuilding process in Syria not only helps the region, but is also good for U.S. national security interests.
ICYMI: I introduced my Trans Bill of Rights with @markey.senate.gov — legislation to defend trans people across this country as Republicans continue to push anti-trans rhetoric and bills. To our beloved trans community: We see you, we love you, and we will always stand with you.
The image features a gradient background transitioning from pink to blue. Text reads "Introducing the Trans Bill of Rights" with an icon of a paper and pen.
A colorful infographic titled "What is the Trans Bill of Rights?" outlines four points with icons: protections from employment and housing discrimination, equal access to medical treatment without discrimination, legal recognition of gender identity, and the right to use restrooms aligning with a person's gender identity.
“It’s not right. And it’s not something that I would have ever thought I would have lived.” Alejandro Barranco is a U.S. Marine. His father was beaten and detained by immigration agents while at work. Listen to his telling of the impact this had on him and his community.
The idea that Trump is creating quotas for denaturalization is a gross abuse of power that should scare every single American. Republicans used to pretend they were for legal immigration, but now they are working to strip citizenship from Americans for no reason.
DHS is operating with zero accountability, way too much funding, and a culture of lawlessness. As Ranking Member of the Immigration Subcommittee, I will continue working to push for accountability using every tool possible.
The DOJ has compromised the privacy of Epstein survivors at every turn, all while protecting Donald Trump and all the other rich and powerful men involved in this abuse. Pam Bondi wouldn’t apologize to the survivors — she wouldn’t even look at them. It’s absolutely stunning.
The Department of Justice publicly released some of the Epstein files without redacting the names of survivors. However, they redacted some of the powerful people involved in Epstein’s sex trafficking ring. This is an attempt to intimidate survivors and we must demand better.
Yesterday, I gave Pam Bondi the opportunity to apologize to the Epstein survivors for the DOJ’s handling of their personal information. Instead of doing that, she showed herself to be cruel, small, and to have an audience of one: Donald Trump.
Governments around the world are bringing down princes, ambassadors, and maybe even prime ministers because of the Epstein files. It is stomach turning that here in America, Trump and Bondi’s Department of Justice is not even investigating the predators that need to be brought to justice.
Bondi has enough time to spy on Members of Congress, but can’t find it in herself to apologize to the survivors of Epstein’s horrific abuse. We will be demanding a full accounting of what they are using our searches for. We need a new process.
