Elon Musk is now the world’s first trillionaire.
He spent nearly $300 million to put Trump back in the White House. Since then, his companies have benefited from billions in taxpayer-funded contracts and subsidies.
Meanwhile, SNAP cuts have left millions of Americans struggling to put food on the table.
That’s not prosperity. That’s oligarchy.

Republicans gutted public education in Arizona to fund private school vouchers. Now they want to export that failure nationwide through a private school voucher tax credit.
Today, with @RepGwenMoore, I introduced the Keep Public Dollars in Public Schools Act to repeal this giveaway and keep public dollars in public schools where they belong.

Today, House Republicans wasted a committee hearing attacking school district officials who stood up for their students and refused to cave to the Trump administration’s culture war attacks on transgender youth.
The treatment these educators received from some of my colleagues was completely unacceptable.
These are public servants on the frontlines of educating our children, and they deserve to be treated with respect.

Trump turned the White House Situation Room into an Epstein damage-control bunker.
While Americans faced skyrocketing costs, they were holding crisis meetings over the Epstein files, debating what to hide, what to release, and how to protect Trump.
Utterly disgraceful.

Trump's latest culture war target? Women veterans.
His Pentagon blocked military participation in a long-standing wreath-laying ceremony honoring fallen women service members, citing anti-DEl executive orders.
I stand with our women veterans.

Well, Republicans finally did it. $70 BILLION for ICE/CPB and NOTHING for working people.

Headed back to D.C. for another week of votes. Republicans are pushing a DHS bill that:
• Gives ICE another $70 BILLION
• Leaves intact a $1.8 billion slush fund for January 6 rioters
• Does NOTHING for working families
I won't vote to give another penny to ICE - ni un centavo. HELL NO.

While we spend billions on another endless war overseas, Americans are losing their health coverage at alarming rates.
Trump and the Republicans have their priorities completely backwards.

What happened to America First??? While families in the United States struggle to afford groceries, Trump is endorsing a far-right candidate in another country. Colombia's future should be decided by Colombians, not politicians in Washington.
The era of U.S. interference in Latin America's democratic processes needs to end. Colombia's future belongs to Colombians.

While you were asleep, Senate Republicans voted to give ICE another $70 BILLION—on top of the $170 BILLION they already approved in their Big Ugly Bill.
That's nearly a quarter-TRILLION (yes with a T) dollars to expand Trump's deportation machine with ZERO accountability.
The House must say NO.

We know who's calling the shots: Big Oil.
Trump and his administration answer to them while our communities and environment pay the price.

Republicans are triggered by the notion that women should get paid time off for basic healthcare.

For generations, LGBTQ people have led the fight for a stronger and more just future. Progress wasn’t won by corporations or billionaires. It was won by everyday people who had the courage to stand up, speak out, and demand change.
Today, we are called to do the same.
Pride is our protest. Pride is our power. And I will always defend that. ✊🏽🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈

When you see the videos of ICE beating and pepper-spraying people outside Delaney Hall, remember that in just a few days, House Republicans are going to try to pass a budget bill handing ICE tens of BILLIONS more in funding with zero accountability, zero oversight, and zero consequences for this abuse.

Trump building a UFC fighting cage outside the White House while people can’t afford healthcare, gas, or groceries.
Way to read the room, Donald.

Trump’s **useless** second border wall is threatening the last remaining U.S. habitat of the endangered Sonoyta mud turtle at Quitobaquito Springs.
I recently questioned @SecretaryBurgum about what DOI is doing to protect Quitobaquito.
Biologists like Michael Bogan and his volunteers are what’s keeping me hopeful right now, but it shouldn’t be on scientists, students, and volunteers to run emergency rescue missions because the Trump administration is bulldozing protected ecosystems.

This is outrageous. Trump wants people already living, working, studying, and raising families here to leave the country and gamble everything on a visa interview overseas? Imagine telling a mom, a student, or the spouse of a U.S. citizen to pack up, leave the country, and just hope they’re allowed back in someday.
How many families will be separated? How many people will lose jobs or homes while stuck waiting overseas?

A United States Senator got pepper-sprayed for trying to conduct oversight at a detention facility where hunger strikes are taking place.
If ICE is willing to use force against elected officials and protestors asking questions, imagine what’s happening behind closed doors to everyone else.
I stand with everyone demanding accountability at Delaney Hall and calling for its immediate closure.

.@SpeakerJohnson just blocked a vote on the war powers resolution to end the war in Iran because he knew it would pass.
Republicans would rather shield Trump from a political defeat than end this costly war.
