Arizona families are working overtime just to pay rent. Meanwhile, billionaires pay lower tax rates than our teachers and firefighters. We need to start rewarding hard work again.

From mass firings at the IRS to the cancelling of the Direct File program, the President is making it harder for the American taxpayer this season. I’m proud to have joined a bill that would save the Direct File program, which millions relied on to save time and money on their taxes.

It’s been 24 days since the Supreme Court struck down Trump’s illegal tariff tax & he still has no plan for paying back the money he stole from American families. When are they going to see the $1,700 he owes them? Return the money, NOW!

Democrats have asked immigration agents to take their masks off and abide by the rules outlined in our Constitution. But Republicans shut down the Department of Homeland Security to block these common sense measures.

The reality of President Trump’s war with Iran is higher gas prices here at home. The American people did not ask for this war, and they need to hear clear answers from the President on how these operations will bring lasting peace and security.

Trump doesn’t care what this war costs you at the pump or otherwise. He has no plan to end it.

Washington Post headline: Trump backs FCC chief’s threat to broadcasters, criticizing Iran war coverage Hey, if the President can’t handle the true coverage about his war and his gas prices, why not come before Congress and tell us the endgame. The media will cover verbatim.

It’s been five years since the Atlanta spa shootings. We remember and honor the eight individuals who lost their lives as a result of senseless violence and anti-Asian hate. May their memory be a reminder that we must continue to stand up against hate in all of its forms.

Is Epstein’s in-house accountant covering something up for Trump? These depositions are under oath. The Trump accuser’s lawyer disclosed to @postandcourier.bsky.social that she did indeed receive a settlement from Epstein’s estate, of which Mr. Kahn is both executor and beneficiary.

Nazeer fought alongside our soldiers and came to the US with the promise we'd protect him, only to be detained by ICE and dead 24 hours later. There needs to be an independent investigation into his arrest and his death and accountability for any mistreatment.

The BP Oil Spill was the worst environmental disaster in US history. It wreaked economic havoc and cost us billions to clean up. The Trump administration is giving BP the green light to do it again—all so Big Oil can make money off our backs and leave us to live with the mess.

The President shouldn't be a cheerleader for Big Oil companies making fatter profits while Americans pay higher gas prices. We should tax windfall oil profits from Trump's war against Iran and give relief to American families instead.
