If people detained by ICE are dying by suicide at an unprecedented rate, it’s clearly cruel and unusual punishment. Congress needs to claw back the $75 billion given to ICE, stop its abuse, and dismantle and overhaul the entire agency.

Explain it to me like I’m five….how does putting Donald Trump’s face on a $250 bill do ANYTHING to lower the cost of gas or groceries???

Trump appointees push $250 banknote with his portrait

The director of the Bureau of Engraving and Printing who resisted the effort was reassigned last month. “The buck stopped here,” she wrote in her goodbye email.

NOT the Onion. The Trump Administration is really spending $5 million of YOUR taxpayer dollars to coat horse statues in gold instead of doing anything to lower the cost of gas, groceries, child care, or housing.

The Trump Administration Is Spending $5 Million to Coat Horse Statues in Gold

The Interior Department quickly gave nearly $100 million in contracts in a rush to beautify D.C.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs@sarajacobs.house.govJun 1(source)

The United States has murdered at least 200 people off the coast of South America. When Democrats are in charge, we will finally be able to do oversight, get justice, and stop this endless stream of murders.

The U.S. Boat Strike Campaign Has Now Killed Over 200 People

This illegal, reckless war in Iran has lasted over 90 days, and Trump has created a situation with no good outcomes left. The best outcome now is to negotiate in good faith and end this war as fast as possible – more strikes don’t lead us to that outcome.

U.S. and Iran trade strikes amid talks to end war

The U.S. military said its strikes in Goruk and the island of Qeshm were in self-defense. Iran said it targeted the source of a U.S. strike on a telecommunications tower.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs@sarajacobs.house.govMay 30(source)

Delaney Hall needs to be shut down. ICE's violent retaliatory tactics against people inside and outside the facility are escalating. Instead of fixing the worms in food, showers so hot they leave burns, and the lack of medical care, they're responding with pepper spray and fury.

After last week's horrifying tragedy, I hope that San Diego's Muslim community can find peace and strength with loved ones while celebrating Eid al-Adha. May this holiday remind us all of the importance of compassion, generosity, and service. Eid Mubarak!

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs@sarajacobs.house.govMay 27(source)

It was so much fun to meet these pre-school and T-K students at the Little Lemons Early Childhood Education Center in Lemon Grove School District. I’m proud to have brought home over $2 million in federal funding to support this Center and the families it serves.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs@sarajacobs.house.govMay 26(source)

Our common goal should be ending the war in Iran permanently, so I want these talks to be successful, but President Trump can't launch strikes while claiming to be negotiating in good faith. He needs to credibly engage to end this war NOW.

Iran deal progress is murky after US says it carried out ‘self-defense’ strikes

Iran on Tuesday denounced U.S. strikes a day earlier as talks for a deal to end the war continue. U.S. President Donald Trump had said Monday that negotiations are “proceeding nicely.”

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs@sarajacobs.house.govMay 26(source)

I just left the Islamic Center of San Diego where I met with some of our Muslim community leaders to chart our path forward to honor the men we lost in the shooting and fully support and protect our Muslim community and their sacred spaces. We’re in this together.

Foreign assistance helps keep Americans safe and healthy. Case in point: Donald Trump dismantled USAID and pulled the U.S. out of the WHO – and both organizations could have helped mount a larger and faster response to contain this Ebola outbreak.

Ebola responders say aid cuts by Western nations left them ill-equipped for outbreak

The sweeping aid cuts have left the Democratic Republic of Congo struggling to contain an Ebola outbreak despite its extensive experience with the disease.

It was so meaningful to join our veterans and community leaders at the Miramar National Cemetery yesterday to recognize Memorial Day and honor everyone who’s made the ultimate sacrifice for our country.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs@sarajacobs.house.govMay 25(source)

Today, we remember the service members from San Diego and across the country who gave their lives to keep us safe – and we must honor their memory by working to build a country worthy of their ultimate sacrifice.

Donald Trump’s Justice Department just announced that the IRS is “FOREVER BARRED and PRECLUDED” from investigating Trump and his family over their taxes. Can you say – corruption?

Trump, family protected from any future IRS tax audits in new deal

President Donald Trump has been feuding with the IRS for many years over audits into whether he and his business empire paid enough taxes.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs@sarajacobs.house.govMay 23(source)

ICE got involved and now a toddler is dead. This isn’t an isolated incident; many American children who have a parent detained by ICE have ended up in foster care or without proper supervision. We shouldn’t give a cent more to ICE to continue this cruelty.

She was deported without her toddler. Then ICE blamed her for his killing.

ICE accused Wendy Hernandez Reyes of leaving her child with a violent uncle, but she says her son would still be alive if officers hadn’t detained and deported her.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs@sarajacobs.house.govMay 23(source)

Donald Trump pretends to care about “waste, fraud, and abuse” yet he just created a $1.8 billion defense fund (using YOUR tax dollars) for the insurrectionists who literally tried to overthrow our government. Disgusting.

Justice Department Creates Unusual $1.8 Billion ‘Anti-Weaponization Fund’

The program aims to compensate people who claim they were harmed by the department, and comes as President Trump drops his lawsuit against the IRS.
