ICYMI: Trump is acting like an authoritarian, putting his face on buildings, our money, and even on America the Beautiful passes. This is an unacceptable politicization of our National Parks and also violates the law. I’m supporting efforts to challenge this in court.

An image features text about Rep. Pramila Jayapal's challenge to Trump's politicization of national park passes. At the top is a picture of the "America the Beautiful" National Park Passes featuring a picture of Trump. At the bottom, additional details describe Jayapal's efforts to oppose this in court.

Under FISA Section 702, any administration can spy on Americans without a warrant. It’s a ridiculous loophole that Congress has temporarily extended. Mike Johnson should immediately bring an amendment to the floor to require warrants and stop this unconstitutional surveillance.

Restoring access to the abortion pill was the right decision from the Supreme Court. Mifepristone was approved by the FDA over 25 years ago and is safe and effective. As this case proceeds, we must continue to fight back against Republican efforts to try to ban abortion nationwide.

Supreme Court restores access to abortion pill mifepristone through telehealth, mail and pharmacies

The Supreme Court has restored broad access to the abortion pill mifepristone, blocking a ruling that had threatened to upend one of the main ways abortion is provided across the nation.

“The workers I represent are not statistics. They are parents, neighbors, community leaders.” Listen to Rose Denis share how Trump's threats to TPS would harm the hospitality industry and the workers she represents as the President of UNITE HERE Local 355:

The polling proves it — Trump is wildly unpopular. Between his illegal war in Iran and Trumpflation Americans are outraged at this administration.

Today is World Press Freedom Day. The US is now ranked 57th in the world for press freedom — and that is rapidly declining as Trump continues to attack journalism. Democracy needs a strong, free press to survive.

The termination of TPS would be disastrous for every sector, especially health care. Listen to Katia Guillaume, VP of SEIU Local 1199, speak about how the cancellation of TPS would hurt our hospitals, clinics, and patients across the country.

While getting real justice for the Epstein survivors will continue to be an uphill battle, it is one that we will not give up. We will continue to demand accountability for them and survivors across the country.

Since Republicans refused to extend the ACA tax credits, millions of Americans have been forced to go without coverage as their premiums have skyrocketed. Health care is a human right. Republicans are failing the American people. https://nyti.ms/48weWzc

Since Congress Let Obamacare Subsidies Expire, Millions Are Dropping Coverage

NEW POD: I sat down with General President of LIUNA Brent Booker to talk about the intersection of labor and immigrant rights, and how Trump’s attacks on TPS have impacted their union members. Watch here or listen wherever you get your podcasts! https://youtu.be/mc8Gv8uu03U

This morning I was notified of another death in ICE custody — the 48th death since Trump returned to office. There must be urgent accountability and oversight, and Congress must take action to dismantle ICE and CBP.

Today we start AANHPI Heritage Month! As the first South Asian woman elected to the House of Representatives, I am so proud to be a part of this beautiful and vibrant community. Let us honor the contributions, culture, and history of AANHPI communities this month and every day.

Cristel’s mother is a TPS holder, and under Trump’s attacks, their family is facing incredible uncertainty and fear. Listen to her story:

It took me 17 years and an alphabet soup of visas to become a U.S. citizen. And in Congress, I’ll continue working to protect and expand legal pathways to citizenship, including for TPS holders.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govApr 30(source)

I asked our witnesses at today’s hearing what they would say to Americans who have fallen victim to anti-immigrant rhetoric. Listen to their responses:

The Farm Bill is an opportunity to help farmers and working families. Instead, Republicans are using it to make permanent cuts to food assistance, meaning millions of children will lose access. This bill is a betrayal. My full statement:

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govApr 30(source)

Instead of stripping TPS holders of legal status, we should provide them with a path to long-term stability. Last Congress, Democrats passed the American Dream and Promise Act to give TPS holders a pathway to citizenship. We must continue to fight for this legislation and for TPS holders.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govApr 30(source)

TPS holders are one of the most vetted groups of immigrants in the US. They have followed our laws, paid taxes, integrated into our communities, and contributed to our economy. Trump’s attacks on them have no basis.
