Private equity is exploiting kids’ sports for profit—pushing the price to play out of reach for millions of families. I support kicking these greedy billionaire corporations out of kids’ sports and preserve this essential part of childhood.
I’m a NO on the NDAA. I can’t support excessive military spending, de facto approval of Trump’s illegal war with Iran, and deeply troubling provisions that force deeper U.S.-Israeli defense and intelligence sharing.
Trump’s lawless federal agents killed another person, this time in Maine. Unacceptable is an understatement. The family and community deserve answers, the American people deserve transparency, and the agents must face accountability.
The biggest investment in housing in 30 years is NOW LAW! This bill includes the work I’ve led to kick private equity out of the housing market—because houses in our communities should be homes for families, not a cash cow for hedge funds. This is a big step forward!
Betting on how destructive wildfires will be is just wrong. We’re talking about people profiting as wildfire threatens communities. This is why I have led the charge to rein in prediction markets—and why I’ll keep fighting for guardrails.
The Israeli military has held Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya for 18 months without charges or a trial. His lawyer reports that Dr. Abu Safiya’s life is in danger and that he’s endured terrible conditions and mistreatment. He must be released immediately.
I call the GOP’s terrible budget bill the Big, Ugly Betrayal because it was a choice to slash programs working Americans count on to give massive tax breaks to the already richest Americans. Betrayal is the only word.
The Trump Administration has a new rule that targets aspiring nurses, teachers, and more by putting the degrees they need to do their jobs out of reach. I offered my Republican colleagues the chance to repeal this rule and stand up for students. They blocked me.
