DC is a vibrant, historically Black community of residents who elected their own local leadership to guide their city. While Trump is using the military to sow fear and chaos in our communities, I stand with the residents of DC. #HandsOffDC
President Trump once again catapulted crime in D.C. into the national conversation. “It has become one of the most dangerous cities anywhere in the World,” he said in a Truth Social post. Local and federal data, though, paint a contrasting picture: wapo.st/3UnYDNd
Rather than being met with the compassion he deserves, ICE has ripped him from his home, his loved ones, and inflicted more trauma in our communities. I stand with Paul’s family, friends, & entire #MA7 in demanding his release & putting an end to these shameful ICE detentions.
Paul Dama's detention is devastating & unnecessary, and his absence is already felt in the #MA7. Whether welcoming neighbors to Suya Joint or helping folks with developmental disabilities lead healthy, dignified lives, his contributions to our community are immensely meaningful.

Paul Dama left Nigeria after being kidnapped in 2018. His detention by ICE now feels like “a second kidnapping." “I felt like someone just sucked my blood, my air. Like, how do you live?"
Good. Like we said before: We cannot let the fragile ego of the twice-impeached occupant of the White House get in the way of the full, accurate telling of American history.
Breaking news: The Smithsonian restored President Trump to an impeachment display in the National Museum of American History but made slight changes. The restoration comes after The Post reported that Trump had been removed from the exhibit’s temporary sign.
More from our recent event with @allaboveall.bsky.social, where we joined @pressley.house.gov, advocates, and experts to stand strong for the #EACHAct—a bold vision for universal abortion coverage. #AbortionRights #ReproductiveJustice

Survivors of Epstein and his accomplices have waited too long for justice. Their voices deserve to be heard in their words and on their terms. That’s why I joined @pressley.house.gov and our @oversightdemocrats.house.gov colleagues to demand a hearing that centers them first and foremost.
It's shameful that Trump would put union-busting over the hard-working VA staff & veterans they serve. Terminating collectively bargained contracts is part of this administration’s assault on our dedicated public servants. They must immediately reverse course.
ICYMI: The Department of Veterans Affairs announced Wednesday that it is terminating collective bargaining agreements with more than half a dozen unions that represent most of its more than 350,000 unionized employees.
Congress must stand up for Epstein’s victims, not protect his rich and powerful friends. @pressley.house.gov is demanding a public Oversight hearing to give these survivors the opportunity to share their stories with the American people.
🚨I'm leading @oversightdemocrats.house.gov calling for a hearing to let survivors of Epstein's abuse testify before Congress. For those who wish to speak up, we cannot meet their courage with inaction. This is crucial to getting the healing, transparency & accountability survivors deserve.

60 years ago, after generations organized, marched & bled, the Voting Rights Act was signed into law. Now, Republicans in Texas & nationwide are carrying out an undemocratic assault on the sacred right to vote. We must keep working to protect & expand access to the ballot box.
Donald Trump promised to make IVF available to all. That was a bold-faced lie. Instead, he's ripping away healthcare from millions and turning his back on people who want to grow their families.
Donald Trump‘s White House is not pursuing a campaign promise to mandate health insurance pay for in vitro fertilization (IVF), even though he pledged to do so multiple times on the 2024 campaign trail.
BREAKING: The Oversight Committee has officially issued the Epstein Files subpoena we helped pass. The subpoena is clear and airtight: the Trump DOJ must release the files by August 19. As a survivor, I'll never stop fighting for healing, transparency, and accountability.
Abortion care is essential healthcare. Thank you to the folks at Intersections of Our Lives for sharing their deeply personal stories and for honoring me with their Champion Award. I'm so grateful for your partnership in the movement for reproductive justice.

This was another shameful attempt at erasing history by the twice-impeached occupant of the White House. The Smithsonian should NOT be caving to appease Trump's fragile ego. And Trump should take his grubby little hands off our Smithsonian museums.
The Smithsonian said it will restore information about President Trump’s two impeachments to an exhibit “in the coming weeks.” The Washington Post had previously reported that in July, the museum removed a placard describing Trump's impeachments.
Let me get this straight: —First Trump tanks the economy. —The data confirms that he's tanking the economy. —Then Trump fires the nonpartisan official who put out that data so he can hide the fact that he's tanking the economy. This is what dictators with fragile egos do.
Breaking News: President Trump moved to fire the official in charge of jobs data, claiming, without evidence, that labor numbers were being “manipulated.”
