Exploitation and trafficking only thrive when systems meant to protect the vulnerable, protect the rich and powerful. Trump’s refusal to release the Epstein files is a reminder that those systems are failing. We won’t stop fighting until justice is served. #NationalHumanTraffickingAwarenessDay
I refuse to stay silent while politicians claim to stand with hard-working Americans then turn around & do the bidding of corporations. This week, House Dems showed what it looks like to get it done by forcing a vote on Healthcare tax credits. We chose hard-working Americans over special interests!
Yet another act of sabotage and incompetence by DHS that will directly endanger and harm our communities.   In the wake of disasters, FEMA helps communities get through the worst. But Noem plans to cut workers whose sole job is responding to disasters.  Our communities deserve better.
The lack of empathy, gaslighting, & lies coming from this Administration is shameful and dangerous. A woman has died. People are scared. Over 30 people have died in detention. They are inciting violence and endangering our communities. It must stop. Which is why I’m joining the effort to impeach.
Follow. 👏 The. 👏 Money. 👏 Yesterday, the President summoned oil titans to the White House to discuss selling off Venezuelan oil. The WH says Trump is already selling the oil, using foreign accounts, and would do so “indefinitely”—authorities he does not have. So, we are investigating!
Our nurses are chronically overworked, underpaid, & understaffed, and it’s way past time we overhaul our healthcare system to support them. That’s why I re-introduced the Public Health Nursing Act with @markey.senate.gov, which will help rebuild and sustain a robust public health nursing workforce.
As they say: follow the money. When you see the president invading foreign countries & stealing oil, corporate giveaways, & talking about using foreign banking—you have to ask—what is actually going on here? We’re watching, Mr. President. We will follow the money. And, we will hold you to account.
My heart is heavy with the passing of Roberto Mondragón, a lifelong public servant who dedicated his life to the people and culture of New Mexico. His legacy lives on in the countless people he inspired and the future he worked so hard to build. Sending my love and condolences to his loved ones.
The Senate has officially passed a War Powers resolution, reaffirming Congress’s war powers. Once again for those Trump officials in the back: 📣 the President MUST GET CONGRESSIONAL APPROVAL 📣 before taking large-scale military action. What he has done in Venezuela is unlawful and must be reined in.
I’m a free market showertarian. Whether you like to shower, take baths, or whatever—you do you. But in a time of serious political and economic upheaval, the House has more serious priorities than regulating shower heads. Or…maybe not, according to Republicans running their first bill of the year.
I am absolutely shocked by the footage in Minneapolis today of an ICE agent shooting a woman point-blank and the dehumanizing false statements given by the Administration in the aftermath. We demand an investigation and that Secretary Noem to appear in front of Congress immediately.
After a full day in Oversight, including new subpoenas in the Epstein investigation, a classified briefing on the invasion of Venezuela, and forcing a vote to protect healthcare, House Republicans have brought us… a bill about showerheads. That’s right—showerheads.
As Administration officials seem to be struggling with this, let us say it again: it is illegal to use the U.S. military to invade a foreign country without the authorization of Congress and is a violation of international law. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Chris Murphy: "At some level he's winning tonight because clearly part of his intent here was to distract the American people -- you and I -- from what's happening here at home. You have 20 million families who are getting massive increases in their healthcare premiums. People will die."
