Imagine being torn from your family and shipped to a gulag in El Salvador without any criminal record—all because of your tattoos or a Trump administration paperwork error.
Leaving people like Kilmar Abrego in a foreign prison while courts "figure it out" is depraved.
Trump declared a fake emergency to start a trade war. Then, House Republicans literally tried to freeze time to dodge voting on his tariffs.
Now trucks cost $20,000 more and the market’s crashing as though we're in a pandemic, but the only thing that we're suffering from is Trump's tantrum tariffs.
That includes people like Arielle who worked at the VA for 15 years improving efficiency before being fired from her job by Trump and Musk.
Lower courts tried to do the right thing and stop Trump’s illegal actions. Today, the conservative Supreme Court stepped in and used a technical excuse to let Trump have his way. That means 16,000 fired workers are once again in limbo.
Trump’s tariffs aren’t just hurting Wall Street—they’re crushing small businesses like Thane’s across New Mexico.
Listen to tribal leaders at our @naturalresources.bsky.social hearing describe how Medicaid cuts would devastate Native health care:
As each tribal leader confirmed, Medicaid is critical for tribes to provide health care services - whether they’re in Oklahoma, New Mexico, or somewhere in between.
Congress and the President must support Medicaid and all other funding that enables self-determination for tribes.
Today, I participated in a
@naturalresources.bsky.social
hearing on the 50th anniversary of the Indian Self-Determination and Education Assistance Act.
Tribal leaders described what it means to exercise self-governance and how Congress must support this foundational law.
Betting markets think we have a 50/50 chance of a recession this year…
Is that the “liberation” Trump promised today?
Trump promised to LOWER prices on day 1.
Today, his new, reckless tariffs created the largest tax hike in American history that will cost Americans more than $3,000 per year.
Food, gas, clothing, cars, computers, and more will ALL go up—and the billionaires don’t care.

This is what Trump and Musk are doing during a measles outbreak.
Today, 10,000 staffers were fired at CDC—including measles and bird flu experts—while dozens of free vaccination clinics were canceled in Texas.
These billionaires don’t seem to care that children will die from their cruel cuts.

We just defeated a Republican effort to BLOCK proxy voting for new parents.
Speaking of voting—Republicans’ SAVE Act would disenfranchise millions of women. Not on our watch.

¡Adelante, Senador Booker!
Thank you for stopping regular business in the Senate for 19+ hours to show Americans what Trump is doing to our country. Business as usual won’t cut it. This the kind of leadership our democracy needs to see.
Republicans are rigging the system to silence your vote and your power.
Today, they’re blocking a BIPARTISAN effort to let new parents represent their constituents by proxy.
They're also making it harder to vote—especially for women, rural voters, military members, & Tribal citizens.

Republicans’ definition of easier:
❌ Forced to drive hours to register in person
❌ More expensive
❌ Needing a passport or birth certificate that matches a voter’s current legal name, which millions of women who changed their name after marriage don’t have
Republicans say Social Security has a problem—they’re right.
But their solution is to cut benefits, make it harder to access services, and privatize it.
Mine is to make the rich pay their Social Security taxes, just like everyone else.
Watch my answer to a veteran worried about Social Security⬇️
At my town hall yesterday, I spoke about love in action—about the importance of showing respect and listening. That is what we need right now.
Political violence is unacceptable, including the arson attack on New Mexico’s GOP headquarters. The perpetrators must be held accountable. Every American should be able to freely and safely participate in our democracy. www.santafenewmexican.com/news/local_n...
