After the president seized control of DC Police, an unprecedented action, and deployed the DC National Guard without DC's consent, Sen. @ChrisVanHollen & I announced we'll introduce our bills to permanently prevent either from happening again.
Statement: bit.ly/45t70MJ
The president’s unprecedented decision to federalize MPD and activate the DC National Guard is a counterproductive use of DC's resources to use for his own purposes.
It's not justified by the facts, which show that DC crime is at a generational low.

1) Violent crime is horrific and unacceptable no matter where it occurs.
2) DC's violent crime rate is at a 30-year low.
3) Presidents have no authority to unilaterally take control of DC. Congress would have to pass a law, and I won't let the current effort get that far.
Albert Pike, a disgraced Confederate general, has no claim to be memorialized in the nation's capital.
I introduced my bill to permanently remove his statue. It belongs in a museum, not in a place of honor in a majority Black and brown city.

Deploying the feds and discussing abolishing DC's local government in response to an assault where the police responded quickly enough to arrest two perpetrators *as they left the scene* are disproportionate, potentially dangerous, and offensive overreactions.
#HandsOffDC
Even if DC crime weren’t at a historic low point, President Trump's recent comments would be misguided and offensive to 700K+ DC residents.
Federal interference is the problem. The solution is #DCStatehood.

Rep. Ogles is under the misimpression that DC residents need Republicans to "save" them, but all DC needs from Republicans is to stop their attacks and fix the massive budget issue they caused in the CR.
DC can govern itself. The interference is the problem, not the solution.
Sen. Lee is ignoring the facts: The so-called "soft-on-crime" Democrats running DC have achieved the lowest violent crime rate the District has seen in 30 years.
Utah voters should be alarmed by the share of his attention fixated on DC instead of the state he represents.

Democrats and Republicans agree that the public deserves transparency.
I support the public release of the records related to the Epstein investigation.

NPS' decision to restore and reinstall the statue of Confederate Albert Pike is indefensible. Pike served dishonorably, misappropriated funds, and was ultimately imprisoned by his fellow troops.
I'll reintroduce my bill to remove the statue.

Thanks to DOGE buyouts, 154,000 people are being paid taxpayer money not to work while critical government services like Social Security and veterans’ benefits suffer.
This is appalling.

60 years ago today, Democrats and Republicans came together to change the course of American history.
Today, only Democrats are keeping the promise to:
→ Protect Medicare.
→ Defend Medicaid.
→ Fight GOP cuts.
I introduced my bill to require the head of the DC National Guard to live in DC.
Adding a residency requirement will help ensure the Commanding General has in-depth knowledge of the issues and challenges DC residents face.

When the first Trump admin relocated parts of USDA, 2/3 of employees left rather than move, draining critical institutional knowledge and harming USDA services.
I introduced a bill to prohibit relocating agencies from the National Capital Region.

I’m concerned about the food service workers in the House during the transition of operations from Sodexo.
I urge the new operators to hire existing workers under the current terms and conditions of employment, including honoring their membership commitment to @unitehere23.
🚨Anti-DC home rule bill alert🚨
Rep. Hageman of WY and Sen. Lee of UT introduced an anti-DC home rule bill that would allow Congress to more easily overturn emergency legislation passed by the DC Council, altering the Home Rule Act.
I’ll do all I can to stop it from becoming law.
As a longtime friend – okay, frenemy – of Stephen Colbert, I support an investigation of the actions of Paramount Global in its decision to cancel the Late Show after he spoke publicly against Trump, while Paramount seeks federal approval of a major merger.
My staff sent FEMA information on DC’s water supply a full week ago – and I’ve been sounding the alarm publicly for many years.
