Senate Republicans just voted to send ICE $72 BILLION without any reforms. Now ICE is hiding data on the condition of their detention facilities, their treatment of detainees, and the deaths that have resulted. Republicans chose to bankroll this cruelty and lack of transparency.

ICE to stop reporting deaths of recently released detainees amid scrutiny | CNN

US Immigration and Customs Enforcement is ending its policy of reporting deaths of recently released detainees, the Department of Homeland Security said Thursday.

We should not retreat from this success. We must enact common-sense gun safety laws to protect our children and communities.

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govJun 5(source)

I am particularly proud of collaborative efforts in Chester and Philadelphia that have reduced juvenile gun violence and shooting deaths. But the Trump Administration and Congressional Republicans are defunding these programs.

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govJun 5(source)

On Gun Violence Awareness Day, Judiciary Democrats took testimony from experts about the significant reductions in gun violence that have occurred across the country as a result of Congressional funding and support for policies that prevent gun violence in our communities.🎗️🧡

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govJun 5(source)

ICE and CBP have terrorized communities across our nation. But the GOP has refused to reform those agencies, and instead is sending them $70 BILLION more, while hardworking Americans are struggling to put food on their tables.

Senate OKs $70B immigration bill after rejecting efforts to permanently ban Trump's settlement fund

The Senate has passed legislation to fund President Donald Trump’s immigration enforcement agencies, sending it to the House.

The level of corruption from this administration is staggering.

Mike Levin on X: "This is so insanely corrupt, I can’t even believe it. More than half the donors to Trump’s $400 million White House ballroom just won over $50 billion in new federal contracts in six months. And here’s the part that should make your blood boil. Sixteen of these 27 donors were" / X

Americans deserve to have their First and Fourth Amendments protected, and that includes their right to privacy when sending or receiving mail.

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govJun 5(source)

Americans have the right to expect that our government won't spy on them, especially for unlawful purposes. That’s why I introduced the Postal Data Privacy Act, legislation that requires law enforcement to obtain a court order to legally access certain postal information through the USPIS.

Tonight, I join my Ukrainian American constituents in celebrating the passage of the Ukraine Support Act🇺🇦, which provides military aid to Ukraine and sanctions Putin and Russia for their unlawful aggression.

House Foreign Affairs Committee Dems on X: "🚨🚨 The House just PASSED @RepGregoryMeeks’ Ukraine Support Act. This bipartisan vote makes clear: the American people stand with the people of Ukraine in their fight for freedom against Russian aggression. https://t.co/dcYz22DWrn" / X

People should be pissed off that the President is using taxpayer dollars to 1. Knock down the East Wing 2. Name the Kennedy Center after himself 3. Build golden arches ALL WHILE cutting people’s health care, cutting food assistance for poor children, and weakening customer service at Social Security

AOC: This is what I want people to understand: this is our money. When you pay your taxes, that money is being stolen to pay for a vanity project like a ballroom or whatever it is that this guy wants to do, instead of what it should be used for…

If Republicans are so concerned about fraud, waste and abuse, I suggest they take a look inside the White House.

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govJun 4(source)

I was proud to vote in favor of this resolution because I know how detrimental this poorly conceived and executed war has been for the American people.

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govJun 4(source)

Last night, the House passed a War Powers Resolution to rein in Donald Trump’s illegal war against Iran. This resolution directs the President to end military actions against Iran unless Congress authorizes it.

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govJun 4(source)

I am grateful for this critical first step in reinstating Congress's role in waging war. We must keep the pressure on to end US military action in Iran and bring down costs for the American people.

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govJun 4(source)

Article I of the Constitution makes clear that Congress is the only governing body with the authority to declare war. President Trump’s actions have not been authorized under the Constitution, nor do they have the best interests of the American people in mind.

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govJun 4(source)

Trump's war is costing taxpayers over $1 billion a day; while Americans are seeing gas prices skyrocket and inflation soar.

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govJun 4(source)

We are facing a cost of living crisis in the United States, and instead of working to lower costs for hardworking families, the President has spent the last 95 days waging an illegal and expensive war which has significantly undermined our national and economic security.

If Republicans cared about enacting laws to help keep Americans safe, they would join Democrats in pushing for common-sense gun safety laws.
