I am in DC. I’m ready to vote tonight, tomorrow, or Friday to pass a 4-week extension and negotiate a working people’s budget. Republicans, the ball is in your court.

What is happening in the George Fallon Federal Building in Baltimore is criminal. The Trump Administration does not respect the rule of law. According to Title 18, Section 242 of the U.S. Code, the rights of every person protected by the Constitution and our laws must be respected.

No one more cent. No one more bomb. No one more excuse. I joined 12 of my colleagues to demand Congress block any current and future sales of arms and weapons to the Israeli government. Phase 2 of the ceasefire must proceed and the collective punishment of the Palestinian people must end.

@democrats.senate.gov, hold the line! We need a 30-day CR, not a slush fund for Musk-Trump.

More proof Trump thirsts for a time pre-civil rights movement: dismantling the Department of Education is destroying the post-Brown vs. Board of Education protections for ALL students. I don't want to go back to 1954... do you? www.cbsnews.com/news/departm...

The White House becoming an unelected billionaire’s used cars dealership was not on my bingo card. ⚠️Be careful: his cars start on fire!!

In this country, we don't bow to kings or bend a knee to dictators. I'm proud to introduce a resolution with Rep. Mullin and @repnikema.bsky.social to remind the Musk-Trump administration that they're accountable to the people and must respect our constitution.

Nope, it's not dystopian fiction. It's Trump's America. In Trump's America, federal employees get subjected to polygraph testing at work. And his loyalists persecute whistleblowers & people of conscience who are holding the line against illegal and unconstitutional activities. x.com/CBSNews/stat...

Trump’s erratic tariffs are crashing the stock market and driving up inflation. The burden will fall on us.

Trump, Musk, and the rest of the Republicans are cutting Medicaid, social security, and veterans’ programs to make more tax cuts for billionaires like them. This is why we elect Working Families Party candidates like @ramirez.house.gov . We deserve leaders who will fight for us.

Latinas are making history in politics, in the private sector, and in our communities! Today, I am proud to re-introduce a resolution that recognizes the cultural, economic, and political contributions of Latinas in the State of Illinois, the Illinois’ Third Congressional District, and the nation.

Today, we honor Harriet Tubman whose bravery saved lives and changed history. May her courage inspire us to act when the freedoms and liberties of our neighbors are threatened.

For so many asylum seekers, CBP One meant the only legal pathway to safety and stability. Repurposing the app for self-deportation in order to circumvent due process and the legal rights of those who migrate is deplorable. thehill.com/policy/natio...

3 outages in one morning? Elon Musk can't event keep his social media platform running. And Republicans want us to believe that Musk and his tech bros are the right people to trust with American sensitive data.

Cutting off humanitarian aid to millions of civilians is a war crime. That is exactly what the extremist Netanyahu government is doing now to Palestinians in Gaza. I’ve introduced resolutions to block billions in offensive arms sales to Israel & will demand votes on these bills.

We need a working people's budget! I stand with a coalition of public officials and community organizations to oppose Republicans’ billionaire budget and their willingness to shut down the nation to extort tax breaks for their bosses from the American people.

Criminalizing dissent is part of the authoritarian playbook. And it is being followed step by step by the Trump Administration. We should all be alarmed and standing opposed, because authoritarianism thrives when we surrender our right to dissent.

At a time when housing instability is at an all-time high, the Musk-Trump administration’s decision to gut HUD is a decision to push more families and children into homelessness.

All this CR shows us is that Republicans are willing to let Musk and Trump steal from their constituents. Their priority isn't working people. It's loyalty to an authoritarian in the White House.

The filth coming out of this Administration's mouth about veteran employees is false and offensive. I've heard from Veterans fired by Trump and Musk, who had recently received positive evaluations or promotion. thehill.com/homenews/adm...

Thank you, @ramirez.house.gov, for standing with Veterans and joining us at our VoteVets event earlier this week. Hearing directly from those impacted by these cuts matters. Veterans deserve leaders who show up and fight for them.
