Treatments for childhood cancer, Alzheimer’s, and sickle cell are at risk. Donald Trump slashed funds, and Massachusetts’s world-class researchers were hit hard. It's terrifying — and every family holding out hope for lifesaving treatments will hurt from this.

We could declare a housing emergency. We could make health care make sense. But the federal government is not doing those things, and people are not happy.

Trump wanted to slash housing funding and kick millions of families out of their homes. I said absolutely NOT and actually INCREASED funding for housing. Today I visited Little Saigon Low Income Housing Institute to discuss how we can keep building more affordable housing and bring costs DOWN.

DHS is holding a 2-month-old BABY at a detention facility in Texas. Last night, Juan Nicolás was rushed to the hospital after choking on his own vomit & being unable to breathe. This demands accountability — not a blank check for more cruelty.

I got to know Jesse Jackson back when I was running Doug Wilder’s campaign. America is stronger and better because of his incredible leadership on civil rights – from his work to overthrow Jim Crow laws to his historic presidential campaign. A grateful nation mourns him.

Childcare is a crisis in America, and we know parents need better options. Today in Spokane, I stood with parents, childcare providers, and local leaders to announce a new affordable childcare facility. By lowering these costs, we're easing the burden on families.

Rural hospitals like Tri-County in Whitehall are doing absolutely vital work to keep folks in Western Wisconsin healthy. But after Republicans slashed Medicaid, rural health care is on the chopping block, making their jobs harder. Wisconsinites deserve so much better.

Black History Month is about honoring the people who built the foundation we stand on. Mrs. White’s Golden Rule Cafe is more than a restaurant, it’s a cornerstone of Phoenix. Proud to present Mrs. White with a flag and celebrate alongside local Black leaders. This is Arizona at its best.

From every corner of the world - and across the aisle in the U.S. - we have come together to fight for the return of the Ukrainian children kidnapped by Russia. President Zelenskyy refused to let up, and this is a major step towards ending this nightmare for so many families.

Selective silencing is now an FCC trademark—censorship that should alarm Americans of all views. It ends in a very bad place, throttling voices at all hours, not just late night TV.

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

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-...

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.

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.
