Mass firings, shuttered civil rights offices, and the reassignment of essential programs to agencies lacking expertise are not reforms, they are an open, calculated attempt to destroy the Department of Education.

Yet, Donald Trump continues to flout this constitutional duty by publicly and deliberately planning to dismantle an agency established by Congress to safeguard students' rights, protect civil liberties, and ensure equitable access to education.
The Constitution is unequivocal: the president "shall take care that the laws be faithfully executed."
Today's Supreme Court decision allowing the Trump Administration to carry out mass firings at the Department of Education is an abdication of judicial responsibility, made worse by the fact that the Court issued its order without any explanation.

I call on my colleagues to join me and cosponsor HR 3045 in the wake of this terrible tragedy, in hopes that one day such violence will cease, and Israelis and Palestinians can live together in peace, security, and stability through a negotiated and viable two-state solution.
This bill codifies and enshrines into law the Biden Administration’s Executive Order 14115, which sought to prevent these kind of acts of violence in the West Bank and to punish all those who commit such acts in the West Bank, regardless of their nationality.
Violence in the West Bank has reached epidemic levels. That is why I introduced the West Bank Violence Prevention Act.
I am horrified by the brutal murder of 20‑year‑old Palestinian‑American Sayfollah Musallet by Israeli settlers in the West Bank. Reports that the settlers prevented ambulances from reaching the victims and IDF soldiers were also present but failed to intervene are deeply disturbing.
I’m grateful to these public servants for their service to our country.
Donald Trump and Marco Rubio should be ashamed of themselves for gutting our diplomatic corps, endangering national security, and treating our civil servants as disposable.
I'll keep fighting to ensure every student can pursue higher education without being trapped in a lifetime of debt.
This comes on top of Republicans’ recently passed One Big Ugly Bill, which makes repaying student loans even harder. Nobody should face crushing debt simply to earn a degree—but Republicans are slamming the door on our students’ futures.
Trump’s Department of Education has quietly ordered student loan companies to restart charging interest for nearly 8 million borrowers, adding $27 billion to student debt in just one year.
It’s time to protect Black women’s jobs, pay, and future. #BlackWomensEqualPayDay
Black women are paid just 64 cents for every dollar paid to white men, costing them nearly a million dollars over their lifetime.
Now, attacks on federal jobs — one of the few reliable paths to the middle class — threaten to widen that gap even further.
Six months in, congestion pricing is working and it’s more popular than ever.
✅ Less traffic
✅ Safer streets
✅ Cleaner air
✅ More transit riders
✅ New MTA funding
I’m proud to have fought to make this a reality for decades. Now New Yorkers are seeing the benefits every day.
My statement opposing Trump’s “Big Ugly Bill” and its cruel betrayal of New Yorkers:
nadler.house.gov/news/documen...
As Dean of the New York Congressional Delegation, I am once again urging my Republican colleagues from New York to reject this bill before it devastates our state’s health care system and rips coverage away from 1.5 million New Yorkers.
Yesterday, a community hospital in southwest Nebraska announced it will close a clinic, citing the looming Medicaid cuts in this bill. Sadly, if it becomes law, that closure will be just the beginning.
Voting for a bill that devastates their own districts and abandons the people they were elected to serve would be the ultimate betrayal of the trust that New Yorkers placed in them.
