Trump’s post describing Chinese & Indian immigrants as “gangsters with laptops” and calling India a “hellhole” is disgusting, insulting and rooted in white supremacy. Birthright citizenship is foundational to America—no amount of racism or xenophobia from Trump can change that.

While hardworking Americans pay their federal income taxes, giant corporations pay NOTHING and billionaires get major tax breaks thanks to Republicans cutting health care. Even billionaire Warren Buffet agrees: Giant corporations and the ultra-rich need to pay what they owe.

Republicans released their new FISA bill today. This bill does nothing to address any of the privacy concerns I raised. No reforms, no warrants. I urge my colleagues to vote no.

Don’t fall for Trump’s lies — FISA 702 endangers your privacy

Congress must pass real reforms and protections to FISA 702 before it expires on April 20, including a warrant requirement to ensure Americans’ Fourth Amendment rights are protected.

Talk about a MAJOR conflict of interest: The Paramount CEO, who is trying to buy Warner Brothers, is hosting an invitation-only dinner to HONOR DONALD TRUMP, whose administration is supposed to review mergers like Paramount-WB. They're not even trying to hide the corruption.

David Ellison to Host Private Dinner ‘Honoring’ Donald Trump as Paramount Awaits Closing of Warner Bros. Deal

Trump promised to go after the “worst of the worst.” He lied and is now working to strip citizenship from Americans. Every U.S. citizen should be outraged by this. If he can do this to naturalized citizens, he can certainly do it to you.

Trump Administration Aims to Strip Citizenship From Hundreds of Naturalized Americans (Gift Article)

The Trump administration is assigning denaturalization cases to regular prosecutors, which could lead to a surge of people stripped of U.S. citizenship.

Cutting health care for millions of Americans is not cracking down on fraud — it’s cruelty.

Rep. Jayapal and interviewer sitting on stage at POLITICO Health Care Summit with text overlayed that reads: "Jayapal, one of Congress’ leading progressives, also laid out a much different plan to boost health care affordability. She said that support for Medicare for All in Congress is stronger than ever as the party stakes a message on affordability.

Jayapal, a longtime supporter of universal health care, said her team reviewed a poll that found the overwhelming majority of Democratic voters — 90 percent — support Medicare for All, as well as 60 percent of independents and 20 percent of Republicans."

Trump’s illegal forever war is threatening servicemembers’ and civilians’ lives, while costing billions of taxpayer dollars every day. Congress must step up to end it.

Rep. Jayapal speaking at a podium in a formal setting, with an American flag visible in the background. Text on the image reads: "New Legislation: Rep. Jayapal Introduces War Powers Resolution to End Trump’s Illegal War with Iran."

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govApr 23(source)

I just introduced a new War Powers Resolution to end Trump’s illegal war in Iran.

One more example of why we can’t trust Trump’s FBI with a clean extension of FISA 702. Kash Patel will spy on anyone he wants revenge on. Get a damn warrant.

More money has been invested in AI infrastructure than the Manhattan Project and the Apollo program combined. It is a risky bet and could devastate our economy on a scale similar to the 2008 financial crisis.

I send deep condolences to the family, friends and constituents of Rep. David Scott on his sudden passing. I am grateful to have worked closely with Rep. Scott on furthering regenerative agriculture strategies and other issues. May his memory be a blessing. https://bit.ly/3QVfFUj

Georgia U.S. Rep. David Scott has died

Georgia U.S. Rep. David Scott, who was seeking a 13th term in Congress, died at age 80.

Happy Earth Day! I am deeply grateful to have the opportunity to represent a district and state with so much natural beauty. We must all work together to protect this beautiful planet that we call home.

Trump’s DOJ is once again targeting and intimidating perceived political enemies. The Southern Poverty Law Center does incredibly important work protecting democracy and promoting civil rights — and I will continue to stand with them.

Southern Poverty Law Center Says It Is Under Investigation by Justice Dept. (Gift Article)

The Southern Poverty Law Center, which is best known for investigating hate groups, has been accused by Republicans of unfairly targeting conservative and Christian organizations.

The DRC is in the midst of an incredibly complex and dangerous humanitarian crisis. This is simply not how we should be treating our Afghan allies who helped US troops.

Trump Is Said to Be in Talks to Send Afghans Who Aided U.S. Forces to Congo

Republicans already gave ICE & CBP $170 billion for lawless immigration enforcement last year. Now, their top priority is to give them another $70 billion when Americans can’t afford healthcare, gas, groceries or rent? What an outrage.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govApr 21(source)

The majority of the American people want universal health care. Under Medicare for All, you get a government-issued insurance card at birth that you can use your entire life. This way, we can actually cut down on costs and focus on preventive care.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govApr 21(source)

In the richest country in the world, everyone should have quality, affordable health care. We have to reform our unbelievably broken system.

Good riddance to another one of Trump’s cruel, corrupt cabinet members. Once again, another woman has been ousted by Trump. It’s about time to clean house of the incompetent men too — I’m looking at Kash Patel and Pete Hegseth.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govApr 20(source)

Countless trans people have already been forced out of the military because of Trump’s trans military ban. Attempting to kick out those remaining is a gross politicization of our military.

Photo of Pete Hegseth with a headline from The Advocate overlayed: "Pete Hegseth's Pentagon has started kicking trans troops out of the military, DOJ says"
