It is an outrage that in the richest country in the world, the wealthiest 1% own 50% of the country’s wealth. That’s why I introduced my Ultra-Millionaire Tax Act alongside @warren.senate.gov — so the rich pay their fair share, and we can actually invest in all Americans.
GOOD NEWS: @pressley.house.gov & Rep. Gillen's bill to extend Temporary Protected Status for Haiti passed the House! This bill would protect the Haitian community from being forced to return to real and imminent harm. I’m proud to have led the floor debate for it today!
Yesterday, 40 Democratic senators voted for Senator Sanders's legislation to block the sale of more weapons and equipment to Israel. While these measures ultimately did not pass, this is real progress — Americans do not want U.S. weapons to be used to kill innocent civilians.
JUST NOW: All but ONE Republican voted NO on reining in Trump and demanding a stop to the war in Iran. They’re fine with raising your gas prices and letting more people die. When will Republicans finally stand up?
While U.S. service members are killed and we waste billions on an illegal war, the madman in the White House is raging at the Pope and pretending he is Jesus. Congress must rein him in and stop this unconstitutional war NOW.
This #BlackMaternalHealthWeek, I’m honoring Ashlee Anderson, who passed away after giving birth to her first and only son. Black women are three times more likely to die from pregnancy-related causes. Congress must act to ensure all mothers get the care they need. #InHerHonor
Rep. Jayapal standing next to a portrait of Ashlee Anderson outside her office.
The Trump administration has gutted the government agency that protects consumers from big corporations and banks that are ripping off consumers. Russ Vought, the acting director of this agency, should be ashamed.
Today, I introduced a resolution to recognize the third year of the civil war in Sudan, which has led to the worst humanitarian crisis in recorded history. The United States needs to use our leverage to end this war and the suffering it has caused.
This Tax Day, Americans across the country are sending money to an administration that is turning around and using that $ for illegal wars and tax breaks for the rich. It’s a broken system that we must urgently reform.
Trump’s budget director couldn’t answer how much the average American pays in federal income taxes. They don't care that while Americans can't afford health care or gas, the largest corporations paid ZERO in federal taxes and we're wasting billions on illegal wars.
I’m so proud to honor Lauren and Rachel, the co-founders of World Without Exploitation, on Time’s 100 Most Influential People of 2026 list! They've lifted the voices of survivors, built a real sisterhood of support, and fought to release the Epstein files. This is such a well deserved recognition!
The humanitarian situation in Cuba is grim — no electricity for 20 hours/day, limited access to food, and unusable medical equipment because of the fuel blockade and embargo. The U.S. must end this cruel policy of maximum pressure and work toward collaboration between our two countries.
From Jeff Bezos’s editorial board. Question: If our tax system is so progressive, then why don’t we have universal childcare? Free community college? More housing? We need to pass my Ultra-Millionaire Tax Act.
Opinion headline from The Washington Post's editorial board: "America's income tax is progressive"
Today, I received a notification of another death in ICE custody. That’s 47 deaths during Trump’s second term. We must stand up and demand real accountability — ICE has a duty to provide care to those in their custody.
