ICE murdered Renee Good just blocks away from where police murdered George Floyd. @ayannapressley.bsky.social and I are introducing the Qualified Immunity Abolition Act to hold ICE agents and all federal law enforcement officers accountable. We need justice. Abolish qualified immunity now.

PSA: the Trump admin has quietly put in place a near-total abortion BAN at VA. This is an assault on veterans’ health care and a betrayal of women who have put their lives on the line for our country. SPEAK OUT.

President Trump promised to lower prices on day one. He has not. In fact, the Bureau of Labor Statistics said today that consumer prices are 2.7 percent higher than a year ago. The price of groceries are up 2.4 percent and electricity prices are up by 6.7 percent. (1/2)

I asked Michigan law enforcement leaders what should happen in Minnesota. The response is clear: the officer in question should be put on administrative leave, and there should be an independent investigation. That hasn't happened yet, and the American people need to know why not.

Trump promised to bring prices down day one. Nearly a year later, they keep rising and the American people are paying the price.

Republicans claim to be focused on rooting out waste, fraud, and abuse. They aren’t. If they were, then they'd acknowledge the rampant corruption being carried out by this regime. Starting with the White House.

Gates finally admits that without a global carbon price, we will fail on climate, then says it’s unachievable, ignoring that CBAM exists.

We've all seen the video with our own eyes, and the American people need answers about what is going on in our streets. Secretary Noem needs to come before Congress and have that conversation with the American people.

This is a powerful piece. Trump gutting the federal workforce isn't about firing public sector workers – it's about weakening the invisible systems that keep our nation running. www.theatlantic.com/magazine/202...

No surprise. MAGA DOJ is constantly getting crushed in court. For good reason. Always the question: gangster, or gong show? BTW: Incompetence is not usually cured by demanding the incompetents work faster.

The video from the shooting of Renee Good directly contradicts the self-defense narrative that DHS and President Trump have attempted to spin. DHS and DOJ must cooperate with state and local officials to hold a full, transparent investigation into her shooting now.

When you’ve finished paying your bills and are wondering where the heck all your money went, remember that Donald Trump’s signature achievement last year was a giant tax cut for rich people. That’s who he’s fighting for — not working Americans.

There is growing demand for mental health support throughout our country. My bipartisan bill would expand mental health services to rural and underserved areas and strengthen our mental health workforce. All Americans should have access to this care. www.peters.senate.gov/newsroom/pre...

President Trump's clear attack on the Federal Reserve's independence threatens our economic stability and our position as the world's largest economy. It does nothing to reduce prices, create jobs, or support Colorado families.

Trump is clearly ready to turn his illegal use of our military on other countries around the world. The only thing he says can stop him? His “own morality." This, from a man with no ethical compass. The Senate must stop him. youtu.be/DIXSgIVbXa8

ICE approaching a teenage girl and U.S. CITIZEN on her way to soccer practice and snooping around her car with giant guns is not making us safer. All it does is terrorize our kids.

Trump isn’t lowering your bills—he’s boosting polluters’ profits. His reckless invasion of Venezuela is just the latest example of his America Last, Big Oil First agenda—and he’s going to continue selling us out unless we stop him.

Washington politicians love to talk about what a good idea it is to ban stock trading in Congress, but then keep doing it. Here's my message to them: You don’t need to wait for it to be banned. Stop trading right now. I don’t trade stocks because it’s the right thing to do.

The Senate has already voted four times on a bipartisan basis to reject Trump's illegal trade war. No blank checks for Donald Trump’s endless trade wars. No blank checks for senseless tariffs.

The Roadless Rule has been an amazing success story—protecting 45 million acres of national lands nationwide, including 400,000 acres in Virginia. I will keep pushing for legislation to codify the rule and safeguard other wilderness areas in the Commonwealth.

Trump’s tariffs are an illegal theft of Congress’ authority over trade and tax—the Supreme Court should strike these harmful and senseless tariffs down.

This investigation is a sham — and yet another example of Trump's dangerous weaponization of our justice system. He pardons his friends, convicted drug kingpins, & Jan 6th rioters who attacked police, but goes after Chair Powell for refusing to act as a rubber stamp.
