Cutting off legal aid for migrant children and abandoning them to face our confusing immigration system alone is simply unjust. Trump is leaving these kids vulnerable to exploitation and denying their rights to due process.

Lawyers helping migrant children facing deportation ordered by Trump administration to "stop all work"

Affected organizations said the move would prevent them from offering critical legal services to migrant children who crossed the U.S. southern border without their parents or legal guardians.

This is straight out of the Project 2025 playbook. Tracking and surveilling pregnancy is dangerous and should be off-limits.

Missouri Republican proposes ‘e-Harmony for babies’ database to track pregnant women

Abortion rights advocates slam legislation that proposes sharing data with law enforcement

The federal disaster recovery system IS broken – but Trump’s mass firings won’t fix it. Instead, people who have already lost everything to fires, hurricanes, and flooding will be forced to wait even longer for relief. Disaster survivors need real reform, not a wrecking ball.

FEMA is losing scores of employees. What does that mean for disaster recovery?

Cuts at the Federal Emergency Management Agency could affect people across the country who are struggling to rebuild and prepare for disasters.

I’m deeply skeptical about this – but I’d love to be proven wrong. How about President Trump starts by supporting my legislation to expand IVF coverage for all service members and dependents – something I’ve championed for years and will soon introduce?

Trump signs executive order expanding access to IVF, says White House

Order directs domestic policy council to suggest ways to ‘aggressively’ reduce cost of accessing in vitro fertilization

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs@sarajacobs.house.govFeb 19(source)

DOGE needs to hear this: firing people – like USDA workers tracking bird flu and VA workers answering the Veterans Crisis Line – and then rehiring them is deeply inefficient.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs@sarajacobs.house.govFeb 19(source)

Trump said he wouldn’t touch Medicaid. He lied. (Shocking, I know.) Today, Trump fully endorsed House Republicans’ proposal to cut federal Medicaid funds by $2.5 trillion. Here’s what that could mean for you:

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs@sarajacobs.house.govFeb 18(source)

The best way to end the horrific war and genocide in Sudan is to get the UAE to stop arming the RSF. As one of the biggest arms suppliers to the UAE, the U.S. has the leverage here – and we need to use it. That’s why I will again try to block the next U.S. arms sale to the UAE.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs@sarajacobs.house.govFeb 17(source)

Our trans service members are an asset to our Armed Forces. Many of them are senior-enlisted, have deployed multiple times, and have invaluable experience. Kicking them out would cost our country billions of dollars.

Democratic lawmakers lead congressional push to reverse Trump’s transgender military ban

California Democratic U.S. Rep. Sara Jacobs is leading the charge.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs@sarajacobs.house.govFeb 17(source)

USAID helps keep Americans safe from diseases, terrorism, and instability around the world – and dismantling it is illegal without an act of Congress. That’s why I introduced legislation to reiterate existing law and prohibit funds from being used to eliminate USAID.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs@sarajacobs.house.govFeb 16(source)

And you know what won’t help rising housing prices and inflation? President Trump’s tariffs on steel and aluminum.

What’s propping up inflation? Blame housing | CNN Business

Home prices across the country are still rising at a faster clip than overall inflation, causing sticker shock for house hunters.

Elon Musk is trying to pay for his own tax cuts with your health care.

I introduced a new bill to protect #USAID. If I had introduced it in December, it would have had broad bipartisan support. But now, Republicans are silent. #PodSavetheWorld

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs@sarajacobs.house.govFeb 15(source)

Don’t fall for this. The Life at Conception Act bans abortion, restricts IVF, and polices pregnancy.

Two Illinois legislators support labeling unborn American children as 'persons' in bill

A Congressman has introduced a bill that would label unborn children as people in the eyes of the law. Two Congress members from Illinois support it.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs@sarajacobs.house.govFeb 14(source)

The USAID Inspector General found that Elon Musk’s illegal gutting of USAID has left oversight controls “largely non-operational” – which means what Elon Musk is doing is actually INCREASING the possibility of waste, fraud, and abuse.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs@sarajacobs.house.govFeb 14(source)

So grateful that my staff could drop off hundreds of Valentine’s Day cards made by students at Hancock Elementary for our local veterans. I’m so grateful for the sacrifices our veterans have made for all of us. Happy Valentine’s Day! #ValentinesforVeterans

Image of 2 people holding a valentines box and sign that says "Valentines for Veterans."

The inside of a Valentine's Day card made by a child. On the left, text says "Dear Veteran, you are kind you are strong never doubt yourself love yourself." The card is decorated with drawings of hearts and rainbow by the child.

Many rows of valentines cards decorated and created by children are arranged in many rows on a flat surface.

I joined #PodSavetheWorld to talk about how Trump and Elon Musk’s freeze of USAID funding is putting U.S. national security at risk – especially with a new Ebola outbreak in Uganda. @crooked.com

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs@sarajacobs.house.govFeb 13(source)

President Trump and Elon Musk have shut down USAID and foreign assistance – those “waivers” they talk about don’t work. This means they’ve shut down passenger screenings at airports for diseases like Ebola or Marburg, putting American lives directly in danger.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs@sarajacobs.house.govFeb 13(source)

Trump and Elon Musk’s foreign assistance freeze doesn’t keep Americans safe and doesn’t address waste, fraud, and abuse. That’s because this isn’t about more oversight or doing any kind of reform. It’s about completely gutting foreign assistance itself.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs@sarajacobs.house.govFeb 13(source)

It feels like Groundhog Day. House Republicans are pushing another bad-faith immigration bill that takes away due process – but this time, you can be deported without being charged or convicted for “evading” law enforcement, even if you don’t know that's what you're doing.
