My office’s constituent services team was able to help NW Justice Project get money they were owed, which means they’ll be able to continue their work helping people get legal aid across WA! Reach out to our office if you need help with a federal agency — we are here to help!
Trump promised to lower costs on day one — even saying that electricity prices would be “cut in half” within 12 months. He lied. Electricity costs have skyrocketed in nearly every state, including right here in WA.
Trump doesn’t give a damn about the millions of American children who rely on a good public school education as their best path toward economic opportunity. They’re just catering to billionaires, who are rich enough to send their kids to private schools. www.washingtonpost.com/education/20...
Legislation to release the full Epstein Files is now law — but this fight isn’t over. Trump and his DOJ will try to redact and cover up to protect themselves and their rich buddies. We’ll keep pushing for the truth and justice.
This administration has slashed billions of dollars in foreign aid — and has little data or information to share about why programs have been cut and the impact it has on communities abroad and at home. I’m demanding answers.
Trump’s DHS has diverted thousands of federal agents away from investigating sexual crimes to work on the administration’s cruel mass deportation agenda. They are ignoring kids being trafficked so they can go after immigrant families.
The Trump regime is disappearing people to indefinite detention in third countries they’ve never been to, often giving them no chance to contest their deportation and breaking U.S. and international law. Cruelty and inhumanity beyond belief. www.newyorker.com/magazine/202...
Refugees come to this country fleeing danger and persecution, and working to protect them has been a bipartisan issue for decades. Yet, under Trump, it has become nearly impossible for refugees to come here. It’s shortsighted and means people will die.
This is a win for due process. The Trump administration was keeping immigrants with ZERO criminal records locked up in detention for weeks and months on end. A judge just ruled that these individuals must be entitled to bond hearings. abcnews.go.com/Politics/tho...
Trump promised to lower costs on day one. He lied. Now he’s telling us that Thanksgiving is 25% cheaper this year? Ridiculous. We all go to the grocery store and see skyrocketing prices. Lying won’t make costs go down. Standing up to giant corporations and billionaires will.
Too often, big corporations & their billionaire CEOs get in the way of the federal government implementing laws with their own profit-driven interests. @warren.senate.gov and I are fighting to fix that & ensure that laws passed actually work for the American people. www.govexec.com/management/2...
Last month, I led an immigration shadow hearing in Chicago. What happened there is beyond belief. Children teargassed, CBP agents breaking a 67-year-old man’s ribs, an active duty service member whose father was deported while he was deployed. There must be accountability.
