Anti-abortion extremists will stop at nothing to ban abortion and block women from getting abortion pills. Their latest tactic? Hijacking environmental laws & claiming mifepristone is **poisoning the water.** It’s as crazy as it is dangerous.
NEWS: The Trump admin has quietly implemented a near-total BAN on abortion care at VA, even in cases of rape or incest. This is yet another attack on reproductive freedom and a profound betrayal of veterans who put their lives on the line for our country. Shameful.
The Trump admin is gearing up to use AI to delay and deny Medicare benefits for seniors. This is outrageous and should be a national scandal. We’re talking about a backdoor effort to privatize Traditional Medicare and cut benefits. I introduced legislation to stop it.
I've heard about ICE improperly stopping or detaining Tribal citizens for no apparent reason aside from their physical appearance. This has got to stop.  The disrespect and harassment of U.S.-born Tribal citizens by ICE is outrageous and inexcusable.
Trump’s rollout of the EHR system in WA state created life-threatening problems & obstacles for veterans’ to get the health care they need. Rushing the deployment of this system while serious issues remain is a recipe for disaster. I'm demanding answers.
Whooping cough is PREVENTABLE with vaccines—but under RFK Jr.’s anti-vax and quack science directives, the Trump admin is turning back the clock on critical public health progress. Our children and families deserve so much better.
Republicans control the House, Senate, and White House. If they wanted to lower your health care costs, they would. The truth is: Republicans do not care one bit if your health care premiums explode.
The Trump administration is doubling the level of cancer-causing chemical formaldehyde Americans can be exposed to. Is that going to Make America Healthy Again?  SPEAK UP against this giveaway to the chemical industry.
Trump & RFK Jr. are threatening hospitals to stop providing care for trans youth—including in WA state. This is dangerous & wrong.   Families & their doctors know what’s best for them. NOT the federal government. Democrats will fight back.
UPDATE: The criminal charges against Wilmer have been DISMISSED. His record is CLEAR. Trump's DHS has absolutely no credibility. Federal agents sicced an attack dog on an innocent man, watched as he was mauled, denied him medical care, and lied about it. Shameful.
My constituent, Wilmer, was mauled by an ICE attack dog despite the fact that, as he has consistently explained, he was not resisting arrest or trying to flee—his wife and young children, all U.S. citizens, were forced to watch helplessly as Wilmer was violently attacked and dragged away.
Today I received FOUR death notifications for people in ICE custody. That's 30 deaths since Trump took office. It's appalling & unacceptable.   ICE is required—by law—to ensure detainees are safe & their basic needs are met. It's clear this isn't the case. We NEED answers.
Exactly zero veterans think the problem with the VA health care system is that there are *too many* staff providing care. But Trump's VA has now decided it won't fill thousands of open positions. We need answers about what this will mean for veterans.
Open Enrollment in Idaho ended Monday—our first look at the very real damage caused by Republican health care sabotage.   Twice as many people dropped coverage. New enrollments dropped 24%.   Idaho is the canary in the coal mine.
