They are focused on breaking people and deporting them. We are focused on protecting them.
As Vice Chair of the @HispanicCaucus, I will keep fighting to reimagine a system that actually works and protects our communities. More to come.

5) Trump and Miller will continue to try to rip citizenship and legal status away from people so they can target anyone who they believe doesn't fit within their vision of America.
4) The Trump Admin is intentionally stripping children with legal status of due process protections and of their lawyers so they can fast-track deportations.
3) The same logic applies to their attacks on birthright citizenship.
Trump and Stephen Miller are trying to fundamentally change the nature of our country in order to be able to deport people who were born on U.S. soil.

2) Look at programs like TPS and parole. We are talking about our neighbors - taxpayers, small business owners, and parents who have lived here for decades.
Now the Trump Admin is attempting to deport them to conflict-stricken countries like Haiti and Syria.

1) The Trump Admin is trying to create the largest undocumented population the country has ever had. How? By taking protections away from individuals🧵
I’m proud to support NJ's effort while I continue the fight in Congress to expand the Child Tax Credit at the federal level and lower child care costs nationwide.

Bringing funding exactly where it’s needed most: our communities! 🛣️🤝
Had a productive meeting with New Jersey PTA to discuss our shared values, and how I'm working with my Dads Caucus colleagues to make every child's potential become reality.
An update from my visit to Delaney Hall yesterday.
We are going to fight every one of these attempts by Trump and Republicans to undermine our elections and ensure that we once again have free and fair elections.
This shows that (1) Trump and Republicans know they are going to get smoked in November because (2) they have failed on promise after promise to the American people and (3) Americans are rightfully pissed and are going to make their voices heard.
Trump just fired the remaining members of the Election Assistance Commission, an independent agency that helps run secure elections.
This move, as well as trying to force through the SAVE America Act, is a full-on assault on our elections just months before November.
An independent investigation is needed now.
The Hispanic Caucus is united and won't stay silent. Lorenzo's family - and all Americans - deserve answers.
🎉 EXCITING NEWS:
With our assistance, $1.5 million in grant funding is coming to the “I Have A Dream” Foundation to support comprehensive, kindergarten-through-college resources for students in our communities and beyond.
Investing in our children is vital to building a stronger future.
ICE killed Lorenzo Salgado Araujo in Houston in broad daylight.
And his son had to find out about what happened to his father from social media. How is this acceptable to anyone in America?
Hoboken High School’s class of 2026 has 136 graduates with more than $24M in scholarships! What an incredible accomplishment! 🎓
I wish the entire Class of 2026 the absolute best as they begin their next chapter. I can't wait to see the amazing things they will do!
Today marks 158 years since birthright citizenship became a right enshrined in the 14th Amendment.
As a proud member of the Litigation Task Force, I’ll keep fighting to defend this fundamental constitutional right.
No one voted for mothers, fathers, and sons to be shot and killed in broad daylight by federal agents.
Yet instead of demanding accountability, Republicans just handed the agency another $70 billion blank check to keep doing it.
