Dems held the line: fund DHS, not ICE abuses. We passed a bipartisan deal through the Senate unanimously. Twice. Then Mike Johnson flip-flopped and blocked it. I went on @cnn.com to lay out the facts:

The Attorney General needs to be on the side of the law, not abusing their position to protect and serve Donald Trump. This was a needed change but the damage done cannot be overstated - we must have a Justice Department that shows independence, not blind loyalty.

On April 2, 1917, Jeannette Rankin became the first woman sworn into Congress—paving the way for many, including myself, to follow in her footsteps. To this day her legacy lives on, inspiring women and girls across the country to run for office and fight for change.

Bondi’s departure is overdue & deserved—after disgracing & degrading Justice, both the Department & cause. But the real problem is Trump, who confuses Justice with self-interest, & sees the Department as his personal law firm. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/02/u...

I’ll evaluate any nominee fairly using my usual criteria: qualifications, independence, and vision. But given Trump’s record, I’ll scrutinize the next AG nominee with exacting standards.

Somehow her allegiance to Trump wasn’t enough. It’s alarming to hear he may seek someone even more subservient and willing to weaponize the justice system for personal, financial, and political gain.

To put it bluntly, Pam Bondi has been a terrible AG. I didn’t vote for her because I knew she wouldn’t defend DOJ’s independence and we’ve seen that play out.
- RW
Long overdue. While he's at it, Trump should fire Pete Hegseth and RFK Jr. immediately.

We have never had an Attorney General as disgraceful as Pam Bondi. No one else has done more to turn DOJ into a political attack dog for a delusional & spiteful President. We need a DOJ that is actually focused on the rule of law and that works for the PEOPLE—not the President.

Dems will continue pushing for commonsense reforms to rein in out-of-control ICE & Border Patrol agents. Accountability must come for unjustified violence & unconstitutional actions. GOP should stop trying to ignore Americans’ demand for needed reform & oversight.

Under AG Pam Bondi, the DOJ became a cesspool of corruption. Bondi will be remembered for blocking the release of the Epstein files, weaponizing the DOJ to go after Trump’s political opponents, and handing out merger approvals as political favors. Good riddance.

Turns out covering up for pedophiles isn't a winning strategy. See you at Nuremberg 2.0

Pam Bondi severely obstructed and carelessly mishandled the Epstein Files – denying victims justice and accountability. She focused on weaponizing the DOJ for political retribution instead of working to keep Americans safe. It was long past time for her to go.

I’m introducing bipartisan legislation with @susielee.house.gov that will help fill gaps in our cybersecurity workforce and open the door to more good-paying jobs for Nevadans, regardless of whether or not they have a college degree.

Our workforce needs more people with the training and skills necessary to protect our cyber infrastructure and Americans’ personal data.

Started my morning in Little Falls meeting with Mayor Zylka about two important projects for Little Falls: the Little Flyers Child Care Center and constructing a new railway overpass. I worked to secure funding for both projects that will support families and improve safety.

Tina Peters tried to corrupt the 2020 election, one of the fairest and most secure in our history. She was prosecuted by a Republican DA and convicted by a jury of her peers. Regardless of her sentence, she is guilty as sin. www.denverpost.com/2026/04/02/t...

Trump promised to bring costs down. Now, the U.S. postal service is planning to add an 8% tax on packages to cover fuel costs — fuel costs he’s responsible for raising in the first place. Arizonans are paying more at every turn. This isn't what he promised.

A year since “Liberation Day.” Costs are up and small businesses have dealt with endless chaos. The average family is now paying $1,700 extra every year thanks to this painful, pointless policy.

This isn’t “America First.” It’s families last.

The unanimous agreement re-passed today is virtually same deal that was proposed a month ago, but Pres. Trump delayed it while trying to leverage DHS shutdown to punish federal workers & win unrelated concessions. He failed, wasted time & money & inflicted damage on avg Americans.

Blocked once again by Speaker Johnson, who cares more about his own job than working for the American people. Everyone wants to see this bipartisan deal to fund critical agencies like FEMA and TSA passed. It’s ridiculous that he’s still standing in the way.

Trump was warned this would happen. He did it anyway. Now, over 10,000 Veterans lost their homes. 90,000 more are on track for foreclosure. On top of cutting jobs, slashing benefits and throwing our heroes into an unnecessary war. The most anti-Veteran President in history.

Today the GOP-controlled U.S. Senate once again repassed the exact same DHS funding bill. Pres. Trump endorsed it. Now House Republicans are last remaining obstruction. They should prioritize homeland security over petty intra-party squabble & reopen DHS immediately.

One year ago today, the President announced his “Liberation Day” tariffs to restore domestic manufacturing & lower prices. One year later, manufacturing jobs are down by 98,000 & consumers have paid $1,000 more on their purchases because of Trump’s tariffs. His policy has been a complete failure.

One year ago today, Trump declared he was imposing his illegal “Liberation Day” tariffs. And one year later, things aren’t any cheaper—in fact, experts estimate Trump’s tariffs cost families an average of $1,000 last year.

These unlawful tariffs have cost Nevada families an average of $1,000+ in the past year on average, and I won't stop fighting to reverse them once and for all.

One year ago, Donald Trump declared sweeping tariffs on his so-called “Liberation Day,” driving up costs for hardworking families and small businesses. When the Supreme Court found these tariffs illegal, he doubled down and imposed more.🧵

One year ago, Trump unleashed his reckless tariff taxes, calling it "Liberation Day." For Main Street, it was Obliteration Day, costing small businesses billions and sending the economy tumbling. Small businesses organized and won at the Supreme Court—but the fight is not over.

Trump has engaged our nation in a costly and dangerous war. Americans deserve answers about the path ahead, and last night, Trump gave none.

Rural and tribal communities are leading on water management but asked to do more with less for too long. Thank you Chairwoman Flores and the Town of Parker for showing me around. I'll keep fighting to get these communities the resources they deserve.

The data is clear. The majority of people detained during ‘Operation Midway Blitz’ had no criminal history. The Trump Administration’s mass deportation operations terrorized our city, separated families, and endangered U.S. citizens—all to detain and deport mostly nonviolent immigrants.

Chaco Canyon is a living cultural landscape that holds deep historical meaning and is a sacred space for many of our New Mexico Tribes. It is not just one more place to drill. The disrespect shown by the Trump administration toward New Mexicans seems to know no bounds.

"Liberation Day" was 1 year ago, and Americans feel anything but "liberated"—footing the bill for this disastrous policy: 💸 $166 billion in tariff taxes illegally collected from Americans 📉 89,000 manufacturing jobs lost 🏠 Families forced to pay $1,700 in tariff costs

Pete Hegseth sent U.S. troops to fight and die in Iran. Was he trying to cash in on the war behind closed doors? This would be a massive betrayal. I’m pressing for a full investigation NOW.

This Women’s History Month, I joined my colleagues in introducing the Working Women’s Bill of Rights to empower women in our nation’s workforce. The Trump administration celebrated by doubling down on a lawsuit arguing that women’s professional development events are illegal.
