For 13 years, DACA has allowed hundreds of thousands of Dreamers to come out of the shadows and pursue higher education, start careers, and live freely in the only country that most of them have ever known. I will never stop fighting for Dreamers and all immigrants. #HomeIsHere

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govJun 11(source)

Gender affirming care is medically necessary and lifesaving — a fact that has been recognized by nearly every major medical association. I introduced an amendment to ensure that care can continue. Trans folks should be able to live safely and authentically as themselves, period.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govJun 11(source)

Trump’s Travel Ban 2.0 is discriminatory and xenophobic, plain and simple. He’s targeting immigrants from Black and Brown countries while welcoming in White South Africans. We’re fighting back with our No Ban Act.

Representative McIver was doing her job as a Member of Congress and is now be persecuted by an authoritarian administration that wants to stop all oversight. I stand with her fully.

This indictment is no more justified than the original charges. I will not be intimidated. My full statement:

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govJun 10(source)

Today, Republicans advanced a bill through committee to lock up parents and doctors for providing gender affirming care to young trans people. This targeting of trans kids who are doing zero harm and just trying to live their lives is beyond cruel.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govJun 10(source)

Trump shipped 238 Venezuelans to a brutal gulag in El Salvador where "the only way out is in a coffin" — despite more than 90% of them having never been arrested or criminally convicted. This authoritarian president doesn’t care about due process or obeying our Constitution.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govJun 10(source)

I'm glad that some Republicans seem to know very well that immigrants power their communities and that Trump's indiscriminate mass deportations are just plain wrong and are speaking out against them.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govJun 10(source)

Trump is wasting $134 million of taxpayer money to send troops to Los Angeles. For that exact same amount, we’re building 1,600 new affordable homes in the Seattle area. Stop wasting money on political stunts and start investing in the things our communities need.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govJun 10(source)

Democrats know that our immigration system is broken and that the American people want a fair and humane system that actually works. They do NOT want terrifying ICE raids, or anymore kidnappings and disappearances.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govJun 10(source)

If Trump can kidnap immigrants into these for-profit prisons, ignore due process, and completely undermine their civil rights protections — he can do it to any of us. We won’t let him get away with it.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govJun 10(source)

Enough of the ICE raids that sweep up immigrants of every legal status. Enough of ignoring due process and the Constitution. Enough of tearing apart our families and communities. Trump’s lawlessness hurts all of us.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govJun 10(source)

Trump is meeting peaceful protestors with tear gas and rubber bullets — weaponizing the U.S. military against citizens and immigrants while ignoring the rule of law. The violence must end.

RFK Jr. — a vaccine conspiracy theorist — just fired the entire independent vaccine advisory committee of the CDC. This is incredibly dangerous and will result in more Americans dying of preventable diseases. www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...

Kennedy guts CDC's vaccine panel of independent experts

The Advisory Committee for Immunization Practices helps the agency make recommendations on who should get certain vaccines.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govJun 9(source)

Trump is using the Alien Enemies Act to detain and deport Venezuelans with no due process. The issue? We aren’t at war with Venezuela, so this isn’t legal — it’s an authoritarian overreach and completely unconstitutional.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govJun 9(source)

Trump responded to peaceful protests standing up for immigrants in Los Angeles with tear gas and rubber bullets. He’s a wannabe dictator using violence to advance his authoritarian playbook. We won’t stand for it.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govJun 9(source)

Republicans have no idea what they stand for. They said they would protect Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security — but then they voted to cut those programs. The only thing they really care about is passing a giant tax break for billionaires.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govJun 9(source)

Democrats will continue exercising our constitutional authority and responsibility to conduct unannounced visits at ICE detention centers. We won’t stand idly by as Trump kidnaps and disappears immigrants off the streets without due process.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govJun 9(source)

The Constitution is clear: the government cannot “deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law.” Yet the Trump administration continues to ignore the law and not give individuals any due process — violating their rights.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govJun 8(source)

60% of births in Mike Johnson’s home state of Louisiana are covered by Medicaid. 125,000 people in John Thune’s home state of South Dakota are on Medicaid. Republicans’ health care cuts will hurt Americans in every corner of this country.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal@jayapal.house.govJun 8(source)

The LGBTQIA+ community is facing an overwhelming amount of fear under this administration. Gender affirming care is health care. We need to protect the LGBTQIA+ community and those who support them in getting the care they need.
