We knew Trump was lying when he said he was going after the “worst of the worst”. And now the data confirms it. ICE has torn apart communities, gone after children, and arrested people who are here LEGALLY. Stop the quotas. Require judicial warrants. ICE out NOW.

Masked federal immigration agents with a headline from CBS News overlayed in white font that reads: "LESS THAN 14% of those arrested by ICE in Trump's 1st year back in office had violent criminal records"

Everyone should watch this incredibly powerful ad, released on Super Bowl Sunday, from Epstein survivors. The DOJ must release all the files NOW. #StandWithSurvivors

THE SEAHAWKS ARE SUPERBOWL CHAMPIONS!!! What an AMAZING game!! 💙🏆💚

“Washington made a choice. A choice to let the laws turn to rust.” Here’s former Assistant AG for the U.S. Antitrust Division Jonathan Kanter on how Trump’s admin is failing to enforce the antitrust laws on the books. And how we can actually lower costs for Americans.

“When access to distribution is fair, consumers see lower everyday prices, communities retain local food access, and small producers gain a foothold in the market.” Listen to Emily Chase’s testimony about the concentration of the grocery market and her experience as an independent grocer:

The price of everything from chicken wings to veggie platters has skyrocketed in the Trump economy. That means that thanks to Trump and Republicans, your Super Bowl party is going to cost much more.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govFeb 7(source)

Republicans love to say that immigrants hurt our economy. The truth is that they pay trillions more in taxes than they receive in any sort of benefits. Immigrants contribute so much to this country, including to our economy.

So excited to cheer on all of the talented athletes from my home state of WA during the Winter Olympics! https://www.king5.com/article/sports/olympics/olympic-athletes/when-to-watch-washington-athletes-in-2026-winter-olympics/281-7cc8cc02-e20e-4d51-9b84-a76de48d5ba4

When to watch Washington athletes in the 2026 Winter Olympics

Over a dozen athletes with ties to the Pacific Northwest are competing at the Winter Olympics. Here's a full list of when to watch:

Trump promised to go after the “worst of the worst.” Instead, he is sending federal agents to kidnap kids off the street as they head to school — sending them to prisons thousands of miles from home. How does this make any of us safer? https://cnn.it/4rDiZ3D

She thought ICE agents were taking her to school. The 10-year-old ended up 1,200 miles away at a detention facility | CNN

As a mother drove her 10-year-old girl to the bus stop, they were intercepted by federal agents. The fourth-grader thought the officers were going to take her to school. Instead, she was put on a plan...

Last year, I asked FBI Director Kash Patel if he had met with any of the women abused by Epstein and his friends. He refused to answer. As we see more of the files, the DOJ is now saying it won’t prosecute anyone further. This is a disgusting cover-up from both the FBI & DOJ.

NEW POD: I sat down to discuss my latest field hearing on corporate consolidation and the rising cost of food. Tune in to hear about my work on the Monopoly Busters Caucus! Watch at the link in my story or listen where you get your podcasts. https://youtu.be/jkRGbHsl-qw?si=siHcEHT4ZXaLP0rD

DHS is using biometric identification systems — filming protesters and legal observers. They are creating a surveillance state. That’s why I introduced the ICE Out of My Face Act to protect our freedoms and our democracy.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govFeb 5(source)

This is fantastic news! I’m thrilled to see the dedicated nurses at Seattle Children’s Hospital getting a contract that provides them with fair wages and working conditions. https://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/health/seattle-childrens-nurses-ratify-new-3-year-contract-avoiding-strike/

Seattle Children’s nurses ratify new 3-year contract, avoiding strike

More than 2,000 nurses at Seattle Children's have a new contract that includes significant raises, protected leaves and stronger workplace violence language.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govFeb 5(source)

Trump has already fired or forced out nearly 200,000 workers. Now they are slashing protections for thousands more. Federal workers keep our gov’t running and ensure the American people get their Social Security, VA benefits, and Medicaid. This is ridiculous. https://on.wsj.com/3OqTBQ8

Exclusive | Trump Administration to Make It Easier to Fire 50,000 Federal Workers

A rule issued on Thursday would create a government-employee category that offers fewer job protections.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govFeb 5(source)

Republicans love to talk about protecting kids, yet they are constantly putting trans kids in danger. Trans people account for less than 1% of the population, yet there were 745 anti-trans bills introduced last year alone. It’s cruelty for the sake of cruelty.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govFeb 5(source)

Layoffs are up 118% from January 2025. Trump promised to come in and fix the economy on day one. He lied. And now thousands of Americans have lost their jobs as unemployment rates continue to rise. www.cnbc.com/2026/02/05/l...

Layoffs in January were the highest to start a year since 2009, Challenger says

With the recent narrative centering on a no-hire, no-fire labor market, the data suggests that the layoff part of the equation could be stepping up.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govFeb 5(source)

Two-thirds of Americans agree that ICE has “gone too far”. It is time to get these masked men out of our cities. NOW. www.npr.org/2026/02/05/n...

Poll: Two-thirds of Americans say ICE has 'gone too far' in immigration enforcement

A new NPR/PBS News/Marist poll finds a jump in disapproval of the agency among Democrats and independents, but Republicans are standing by ICE and the president.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govFeb 5(source)

Republicans have handed over Congress’s Article I powers to the White House. They don’t question him, they don’t hold him accountable. They don’t do anything to rein in the lawlessness of this administration. But Democrats will.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govFeb 5(source)

Crumbs for working people, gold bars for billionaires — that’s the Republican Party's priority.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govFeb 4(source)

Tom Homan has said that he will pull 700 DHS agents out of Minnesota — that still leaves 2,300 agents or a force FOUR TIMES the size of the local Minneapolis police force. ICE and CBP need to get out of our communities NOW.
