We saw ICE and CBP agents shoot and kill two American citizens in the street. There must be accountability. Kristi Noem and DHS cannot continue to terrorize American communities and violate our civil liberties. DC Republicans shut the government down because they refuse to rein in ICE.
American service members have died, reports say that we've already spent over $1 billion on this illegal war with Iran, and the President doesn't have a plan. We are in a war, and the President doesn't have a plan to keep Americans safe.
Americans don't want war. They want affordable healthcare, groceries, and energy. The Trump administration cut billions of dollars from programs that lower costs for Americans. Now they want taxpayers to fund another war in the Middle East with no exit strategy in sight.
Americans will see higher prices for energy in the weeks ahead.
I visited Cheyney University — the oldest HBCU in the nation — to meet with leadership, faculty, and students about the challenges facing higher-ed institutions and to hear how Cheyney is working to enhance the student experience through internships and other workforce development efforts on campus.
Donald Trump has done nothing to prove that his military actions in Iran — unauthorized by Congress — make Americans safer or the region more stable. The people of Iran deserve peace and democracy, but the United States must support these goals without plunging our nation into another endless war.
I was honored to address Faithful Resistance: A Public Witness for Immigrant Justice, an interfaith & ecumenical gathering of >1,200 leaders who united for a day of worship & peaceful advocacy at the Capitol to call upon this admin for humane treatment of immigrants, refugees, & asylum seekers.
