These comments are disgusting and these hateful beliefs have no place in Congress. We must call this out and stand by our Muslim neighbors.

I visited Lin’s in Kakaako to hear how they’re weathering Trump’s tariffs and taste their famous li hing mui. There is nothing sweet about how Trump's tariffs are impacting our businesses, but there sure is about Lin's snacks!

A recent study found that President Trump and Elon Musk’s cuts to USAID could result in more than 9M premature deaths over the next four years. This Admin’s callous approach to gutting foreign assistance will be remembered as cruel & counterproductive, harming America’s image & millions of lives.

DHS is abusing administrative subpoenas to target and silence its critics. @repespaillat.bsky.social and I will be introducing legislation that would make this practice illegal and help end these authoritarian abuses.

Folks ask why ICE agents at polling places would be such a bad thing since voters are U.S. citizens anyways… This is why. We cannot allow legal voters to be intimidated by ICE agents that act with impunity no matter your immigration status.

When adversaries, like China, have control over America's critical mineral supply, it risks our national security and economic independence. My SECURE Minerals Act would help us reverse course by supporting domestic supply chains for these key resources. www.eenews.net/articles/us-...

Good to be with the Tempe Chamber of Commerce today. Arizona’s business community plays a big role in keeping our state moving forward. We are making sure every family, entrepreneur, and community has a fair shot to be part of that growth.

In a house of dynamite, you don’t make yourself safer by adding more sticks and daring your roommates to start a fire. The U.S. needs both strategic deterrence and a renewed diplomatic effort to avoid another arms race. My op-ed in @washingtonpost.com: https://wapo.st/46N6omr

Last year, surveillance giant Palantir (who got an 8-figure contract from ICE) paid $0 in federal income tax despite making $1.5 BILLION, partly due to new tax cuts in Trump's Big, Beautiful Bill. They cut Medicaid & SNAP to pay for this. This monstrosity must be reversed.

Microsoft AI CEO Mustafa Suleyman says most white-collar work "will be fully automated by an AI within the next 12 to 18 months.” If that’s true, it’s an economic earthquake. We need a moratorium on new AI data centers to make sure AI works for workers, not just billionaires.

Rev. Jackson devoted his life to lifting up the voices of those who are too often forgotten and building coalitions to enact real change. His legacy of steadfast commitment to justice will continue on.

We are a nation torn between the worst impulses and the highest ideals of our Constitution. Rev. Jesse Jackson embodied the highest ideals of liberty and equality and challenged the rest of us to do the same.

I met with agricultural leaders at the farm of Jeremy Tischer, a third-generation farmer growing corn, soybeans, and sugar beets near Breckenridge. We discussed the many challenges they’re facing — from rising costs to tariffs — and the need for certainty and stability.

Reverend Jesse Jackson imagined a country where people of all races, classes, and backgrounds could come together to fight for true justice. He reminded us that every voice matters in the work of building a more free and just society. My aloha goes to his family and loved ones.

Let’s get the facts straight: tariffs are taxes paid by Americans, not foreign countries. Americans are paying 95% of the costs of President Trump's tariffs. No matter who the President blames, his policies are leading to higher costs and higher taxes for everyday families.

Rev. Jesse Jackson was a great American who fought relentlessly to make our country a better place — one with justice, equality, and freedom for all. His legacy will live on for generations through the lives he changed. My thoughts are with his family.

We need to rein in ICE and CBP. We need to call out the avalanche of lies. And most importantly, we need to stand up for our communities—because they are being terrorized by their own government. The American people are demanding Congress meet this moment.

Trump claims he wants a deal with Iran, not war. That’s B.S. We had a great deal with Iran on its nuclear program in 2015, but Trump tore it up and then bombed Iran last summer. Trump is a dangerous warmonger that must be stopped.

Reverend Jesse Jackson believed in an America where “the desperate, the damned, the disinherited, the disrespected, and the despised” could have a fair shot at a better life and a brighter future. Now, we must work to keep his hope alive and secure true justice for all.

Saddened by the loss of civil rights giant Jesse Jackson. Rev. Jackson never stopped advocating for the most marginalized among us, and pushing America to live up to its ideals. May his memory be a blessing, and may we carry on his legacy by continuing the fight for a more just world.
