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.
The top 5 states where health care premiums are jumping by the highest percentage? All Republican states. The next 5? Also Republican states. And yet, the vast majority of Republicans couldn’t be bothered when it came to saving the ACA tax credits.
Trump is trying to BAN states from regulating AI in *any* way to protect your safety and privacy. He couldn't get the votes in Congress to do it—so he's threatening to sue or yank funding from any state that stands up to tech billionaires. This is a massive, corrupt overreach.
ICYMI: Speaker Johnson is REFUSING to let the House vote on a bill to extend the ACA tax credits this month. People are buying health coverage NOW—January is TOO LATE. Republican Leaders won't do a thing to help families keep their health care.
Conditions at the Northwest Detention Center are unacceptable—and a year of Trump's cruel mass deportation campaign has made the situation far worse.   I'm sounding the alarm on overcrowding, lack of medical care, food, & more at ICE facilities. We need answers and accountability.
I take my responsibility to support our troops and their families seriously, and I always will. I voted against the annual defense bill because it doesn't do enough to curb the Trump administration's lawlessness that puts us all at risk—& leaves out key provisions I worked on.
The storms in WA state have been a sobering reminder: the decisions we make in DC really matter for families back home. 20 years ago, I secured funding for Mount Vernon to build a flood wall. Now, that flood wall is preventing major flooding from devastating the city's downtown.
Remind everyone: Republicans made tax breaks for billionaires permanent. Permanent! They exploded the national debt by trillions to do it.   But saving health care for a few years? Republicans say that's too expensive.
My message to everyone in WA state dealing with the aftermath of the devastating floods: I know you have a long road ahead, but I will be with you every step of the way and will fight tooth and nail to make sure you get the support you need to rebuild and recover.
We should always come together in times of tragedy and focus on helping people. Thank you to the first responders working tirelessly to keep people safe as WA state experiences catastrophic and record-breaking flooding.
🚨Spread the word: Major flooding is projected in Western Washington state in the days ahead. As the severe weather and evacuations continue, it's critical that everyone stay informed and alert.
