@SenGaryPeters’ new report found that DOGE put YOUR sensitive data at risk. Whistleblowers say that because information was uploaded to an unsecured server, it could be hacked – and every American could need to be issued a new Social Security number.

A new @USGAO report requested by @SenGaryPeters found alarming and unsafe conditions at the Camp East Montana detention center. Read more:

Senate Republicans just rubber-stamped a bill that gives ICE and CBP $70 billion without requiring any new guardrails or meaningful reforms. At a time when Americans are struggling with rising costs from the President’s war in Iran, spending billions more taxpayer dollars on President Trump's extreme immigration enforcement agenda makes no sense. This is simply not a responsible way to govern.   My Democratic colleagues and I fought to include measures to improve transparency, strengthen accountability, and help ensure DHS personnel are held to the same standards as our local law enforcement officers. Instead, Senate Republicans side-stepped the bipartisan appropriations process, blocking every commonsense reform we proposed, and voting to keep the President’s $1.7 billion slush fund for rioters who attacked law enforcement in place. Congress should do its job to act as a check on this Administration. Unfortunately, Senate Republicans will only cower to President Trump’s demands.    I voted against this partisan spending legislation and will continue to work with my colleagues to fight rein in ICE and this Administration’s reckless policies.

Statement from Ranking Member @SenGaryPeters on President Trump's AI executive order.

PETERS: Yes or no, do you think it's right for a president to approve disaster aid based on whether a state voted for him instead of the amount of damage in the state? This chart behind me is pretty dramatic MARKWAYNE MULLIN: That's not my experience of the president PETERS: This chart speaks volumes

America’s top national security officials need to be ready for anything, at anytime - not unreachable because they had too much to drink. @SenBlumenthal was blocked by @HSGAC_GOP from investigating Kash Patel’s reported drinking to excess.

After promising it would be privately funded, President Trump want taxpayers to pay $1 BILLION - all without releasing key information about his vanity project. @HSGAC_GOP blocked @SenBlumenthal’s amendment requiring a public report on the President's golden ballroom.

.@HSGAC_GOP blocked @SenatorHassan's amendment to remove the banners of President Trump's face that he ordered hung up in America's capital. Plastering buildings with their leaders' faces is what authoritarian countries do — it's un-American.

.@HSGAC_GOP blocked @SenBlumenthal's amendment to make President Trump disclose his private donors, donation amounts, and construction contracts for his golden ballroom. The American people deserve to know who actually benefits from this project.

.@HSGAC_GOP thinks Trump's ballroom is more important than combating child sex exploitation — they blocked @SenatorHassan's amendment to redirect funds from the $1 BILLION ballroom funding request and voted against protecting children.

.@HSGAC_GOP voted to let @DHSgov use spyware on American citizens — providing access to your personal photos, your location, and who you call and text — and blocked Ranking Member @SenGaryPeters' amendment which would have stopped ICE and CBP from remotely accessing your devices.

.@SenatorHassan called out @HSGAC_GOP for hiding behind process to avoid taking a real position on reforms like reining in DHS’ use of force policies. Republicans rejected every commonsense reform Democrats offered.

Farmers across our country are paying more for fuel and fertilizer, thanks to the President's war in Iran. Ranking Member @SenGaryPeters offered an amendment to provide relief for farmers and to help keep grocery prices down. @HSGAC_GOP blocked it.

Hours before the Iran war stared, more than 150 Polymarket accounts placed bets predicting a U.S. strike. One day before the U.S. took military action in Venezuela, a trader placed bets that made him over $400,000. Just nine Polymarket accounts have made over $2.4 million by betting on military operations with a 98 percent success rate. This morning in the Homeland Security and Government Affairs committee, I introduced an amendment that would curb insider trading by any U.S. government official on prediction markets.

Republicans are seemingly fine giving payouts to convicted child predators. During today’s markup they blocked my proposal to prevent the Jan. 6 slush fund from going to insurrectionists who sexually abused children after being pardoned by Trump.

President Trump would rather spend tax dollars on his ballroom than help lower health care costs for millions of Americans. @SenatorHassan offered an amendment to cancel funds for the ballroom to renew the Affordable Care Act tax credits. @HSGAC_GOP blocked it.

DHS’ use of force practices are currently hidden from the public. Instead of increasing transparency and accountability for these federal officials, @HSGAC_GOP blocked Ranking Member @SenGaryPeters’ amendment to make DHS manuals publicly available.

.@HSGAC_GOP couldn’t even agree that we need to reduce the national deficit. Ranking Member @SenGaryPeters tried to redirect funding from the President’s “big beautiful bill” to pay down our deficit, and Republicans voted it down.

The President’s war in Iran has increased U.S. terror threats, yet he slashed our counterterrorism agencies and fired critical personnel. Ranking Member @SenGaryPeters pushed to help protect us from terror attacks, but @HSGAC_GOP voted to continue putting Americans at risk.

Republicans won’t even protect CHILDREN in ICE’s detention facilities. Today, @HSGAC_GOP voted down Ranking Member @SenGaryPeters amendment to redirect unused funding from Trump’s “big, beautiful bill” for children’s medical care in DHS facilities.

Masked federal agents across the country have sown chaos and made our communities and officers less safe. @HSGAC_GOP blocked @SenatorHassan’s commonsense amendment to require @DHSgov officers to be clearly identified to protect the safety of officers and the public.
