Dylan entered legally, followed the law, showed up to his court hearing—he was still detained. Raiza, his mother and my SOTU guest, shared the nightmare her family has endured since. While Trump lies, thousands of families are living with the consequences of ICE’s cruelty.

As Trump rambles on, the American people are still waiting for justice and transparency on the Epstein Files. My #SOTU guest, Dani Bensky, was a victim of abuse by Jeffrey Epstein, and like so many of her fellow survivors, she’s not standing down in the fight for justice:
Aleshandra Fernandes is another one of my guests at tonight’s State of the Union. She’s a union ironworker on offshore wind projects on Long Island. Thanks to Trump’s attempts to shutter offshore wind projects, she no longer feels secure in her livelihood.
The American people will see tonight that Democrats offer a better choice forward: A choice to lower costs. A choice to end the chaos. A choice to restore some sanity to our country.
Dani is a survivor of Jeffrey Epstein's abuse. She’s here today as my guest to attend the State of the Union because even after everything she endured, she is still fighting—not just for herself but for every survivor who was silenced, ignored, and dismissed.
—Dani, a survivor of Jeffrey Epstein —Raiza, a mother whose son was detained by ICE —Aleshandra, a Long Island ironworker whose job is at risk as Trump attempts to shutter offshore wind projects —Ben, a Rochester small-business owner forced to lay off 25%+ of his workforce due to Trump’s tariffs
Trump’s first year in office recapped: —Illegal tariffs have raised costs —Masked ICE agents are terrorizing our neighborhoods like cartel thugs (right Senator Mike Lee?) —And they still won’t show us the full Epstein files
Donald Trump said he is going to talk for a very long time tonight. God help us. Not sure what he thinks there is to celebrate, because America is a mess thanks to him.
Trump doesn't care about the burdens he's imposing on Americans with his tariffs—but Democrats do. We will NOT extend the Trump tariffs once they expire in a few months. We'll do everything we can to stop them. We won't stand for higher prices and more inflation.
I’m proud to bring Dani Bensky, New Yorker and survivor of Jeffrey Epstein’s abuse, as my guest to the State of the Union to demand the truth. Dani has turned unimaginable pain into unrelenting advocacy. Survivors deserve justice. Trump must end the cover-up and release the full Epstein files—NOW.
Raiza's son, Dylan Lopez Contreras, was the first NYC public school student detained by ICE. He entered legally, followed the law, and was still detained after attending a mandatory court hearing. We won’t stop fighting to bring Dylan home and end ICE’s lawlessness.
Trump’s chaotic tariff policies have already been rebuked by Democrats, Republicans, and even the Supreme Court. They are a tax on Americans, driving prices higher for families. @democrats.senate.gov will block any attempt to extend Trump’s tariffs when they expire this summer.
