Sarah Owings is a lawyer who represents immigrants who have been detained by ICE. As Trump and Republicans remove all oversight measures at these facilities, it is critical that we listen to her clients’ stories.

In Charlotte, NC, Border Patrol raided a church, tried to arrest the same U.S. citizen twice within five minutes, and scared families so much that thousands of kids were kept out of school.
In WA and OR, we’ve seen people kidnapped from preschools and daycares.
It’s disgusting.
The CFPB has returned billions to Americans scammed by corporations. But now the Trump administration is canceling lawsuits and taking money out of consumers’ pockets.
The government should work for the people, not billionaire CEOs — and I’m demanding answers.
Trump is doing everything he can to hide his immigration detention abuses — lying to the public, sending people to third countries, and denying members of Congress access to detention facilities.
But I promise you I will not give up in this fight for truth and justice.
NEW: @repcasar.bsky.social & I led 42 members in calling on Sec. Rubio to hold Pakistan’s military accountable as they face an escalating crisis of authoritarianism.
As US citizens who speak out face intimidation, our govt must take concrete action to defend them. jayapal.house.gov/2025/12/03/j...
It was an honor to meet with leadership of the Washington State National Guard.
Our National Guard members sacrifice so much to serve this country, and it is critical that we work to ensure that their skills are respected and used correctly, not politicized by this administration.
NEW POD: In the 1st episode of my series on Medicare For All, I spoke w/ @wendellpotter.bsky.social — a former health insurance exec turned universal health care advocate — about our broken system & how we can fix it.
Watch below or listen wherever you get podcasts! www.youtube.com/watch?v=PzjP...
Thank you so much to Mahmoud Khalil and Badar Khan Suri for sharing their important stories and to Sarah Owings and Heidi Altman for providing much needed legal expertise and information.
So proud to stand with @ramirez.house.gov, advocates, and supporters this week to introduce my Dignity for Detained Immigrants Act.
Together, we will fight for this legislation to reform our immigration detention system and make it more humane and just.
This deal is a nightmare. It would mean more price hikes, ads & cookie cutter content, less creative control for artists, & lower worker pay.
The media industry is already controlled by a few corporations with too much power to censor free speech. The govt must step in. www.cnbc.com/2025/12/05/n...
Reminder: the Medicare Open Enrollment period ends December 7, 2025 — this Sunday!
If you need any assistance to ensure you have the coverage you need in 2026, please reach out to my office. We are here to help!
Democrats wanted to force big airlines to pay you if they delayed your flight for hours and hours. Then Trump came into office and cancelled the entire plan.
Why? Because he only cares about helping out his billionaire buddies, not you.
The private, for-profit prison corporations that donated millions to help Trump get elected are now reaping the profits.
This admin and ICE are funneling them billions of dollars in contracts to detain record numbers of immigrants — most of whom have no criminal record.
Despite Trump’s xenophobic and hateful rhetoric, we are a country built by immigrants.
I stand with our Somali neighbors and all immigrants across this country.
“‘I’m a US citizen, please help me,’ she shouted after agents forced her to the ground. ‘Why are you doing this to me?’”
Trump’s secret police have detained nearly 200 US citizens this year. This is illegal and it’s a danger to our democracy. www.miamiherald.com/news/local/c...
He’s aging now and we don’t know how much longer he has, but even today, with his achy bones and health challenges, he still has that mischievous playfulness. Happy birthday Otis! Thank you for blessing us with YOU!
Otis turns 14 today! This guy has given us so much joy and taught us so much about unconditional love! He’s gotten us out for walks even when we didn’t want to and made us laugh over and over again with his spunk and his spirit.
Being undocumented is NOT a crime.
And despite the endless stream of xenophobic and racist rhetoric from Trump and Republicans, the vast majority of immigrants — both documented and undocumented — contribute to America in more ways than we could imagine.
Scientists in Seattle are on the frontlines of the groundbreaking research to cure HIV/AIDS.
Meanwhile, Trump has slashed funding for science and research across the country. We must restore this funding to save lives. www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news...
I was proud to stand with @markey.senate.gov, @repyvetteclarke.bsky.social, @repsummerlee.bsky.social, & @pressley.house.gov to introduce our AI Civil Rights Act.
As giant corporations & billionaires use algorithms to discriminate against people, Congress must pass this bill to protect Americans.
