Met Seyo & his two sons at his restaurant with Rep. Larson. A great family & successful business owner. While Seyo is grateful for our help in getting him home, ICE should never have disrupted this family’s lives just to meet some arbitrary quota. It is cruel & heartless.

We are a country of laws and people need to be held accountable for their actions. The pay-for-play schemes we see coming from this Administration are egregious and need to be investigated.

I am saddened by the passing of Tibetan activist Lobga Ranzen, and my deepest condolences go out to the Tibetan community. China’s ethnic unity law is a tool for targeting the identity of Tibetans and other minorities. I will continue to fight for the freedom of Tibetans and all minority groups.

A government that detains a nun in her habit as she walks to Sunday Mass has lost sight of its values. Houses of worship should be places of refuge, not places people are afraid to enter.

Trump’s rolling back gun violence protections will cause needless bloodshed & cost lives. I’ll fight his retreat on regulations. Republicans failing to join us are complicit.

I wrote the End Crypto Corruption Act to make sure NO President can use their office to profit from corrupt crypto schemes. Each passing day makes it clearer and clearer why we need to get this bill passed.

Our democracy works best when more people vote—not less. I refuse to sit idly by and let President Trump try to intimidate voters. We must pass my bill to stop him from sending armed federal agents to our polling places.

The thing I hear the most about from Arizonans right now is how expensive everything is. They’re spending more and getting less. Bringing costs down is my top priority.

Trump doesn't care about how much you pay for groceries or healthcare. Families are struggling. But Trump only cares about himself.

$3,600. That's how much EXTRA the average family in Washington state had to pay since Trump took office because of his reckless and stupid policies.

Donald Trump promised to lower your costs on day one. Instead, he’s busy using the presidency to boost his family's crypto business.

That should start with Donald Trump finally signing the largest housing bill passed by Congress this century. And Congress should build on this bipartisan momentum by advancing bills like my Housing BOOM Act to launch the next great American housing boom.

California is on the front line of America’s housing crisis. And while new housing is coming online to provide much-needed affordable options – like Harrington Heights in Downtown San Diego – we can and must do more to increase the supply of housing.

With more international events on the horizon, like the Summer and Winter Olympics, the U.S. has a great opportunity to keep growing our tourism industry. I’ll keep supporting the hospitality workers and small businesses who power it.

The FIFA World Cup is bringing visitors from around the world to the U.S. – and as they stay in our hotels, dine in our restaurants, and experience all that America has to offer, they’re supporting our small businesses that are at the heart of our communities and contributing to our economy.

Elon Musk, the literal richest man on the planet–the world’s first TRILLIONAIRE–is paying the SAME amount in Social Security taxes as an electrician who makes $185,000 a year. That's outrageous. We need to scrap the cap so the richest people in the world pay their fair share.

Colorado is at the beginning of what is already a devastating wildfire season. We urge every Coloradan to stay alert and check for updates. We’ll keep fighting for federal resources that can help our communities and first responders stay safe.

I have seen the devastation this cruelty has had on New Mexicans, and I am still fighting to reverse the cuts Republicans made in their Budget Betrayal.

Republicans took away health care from 3 million Americans, cut $187 billion from feeding hungry children, seniors, and veterans, and repealed $500 billion of clean energy tax credits.

I took this photo a year ago when Senate Democrats were on the floor for nearly 24 hours straight, fighting back against President Trump’s Budget Betrayal. Congressional Republicans weren’t working for the American people that day – only billionaires and large corporations.
