This morning, I spoke to families with loved ones in Delaney Hall. They told me about an appalling lack of access to healthcare, violence and intimidation by guards, and horrible living conditions within the facility. I’m going back to Delaney today to continue the fight to shut it down.

Saudi Arabia, Qatar, & the U.A.E. could soon influence: CNN CBS HBO Nickelodeon Comedy Central MTV & more Why? They’re dumping $24B into Paramount’s bid for Warner Bros. We can't let countries with a record of censorship dictate what you watch. I’m pressing for accountability.

Abortion bans are putting women's lives in danger, and it's not by accident. This is a situation Republicans explicitly manufactured simply because they believe they should decide what a woman does with her body, no matter the consequences. We've got to keep fighting back.

Everyone deserves the right to due process. Overwhelming judges’ caseloads does not do justice by the people and families whose lives hang in the balance, or to our communities. It’s what I see at Delaney Hall in Newark and around the country. We deserve better.

The Director of National Intelligence has access to our most sensitive intelligence. Yet with everything the U.S. is facing, the President has handed that responsibility to Bill Pulte, a housing regulator with no intelligence experience. Totally unqualified and our Republican colleagues know it.

Senate Republicans just voted to send ICE $72 BILLION without any reforms. Now ICE is hiding data on the condition of their detention facilities, their treatment of detainees, and the deaths that have resulted. Republicans chose to bankroll this cruelty and lack of transparency.

The Trump administration is politicizing federal funding in a truly obscene and unforgivable way & robbing communities of funding they're owed. Republicans should work with Democrats to stop this plan in its tracks.

Senate Republicans just pushed through another bill to spend taxpayer money on out-of-control and unaccountable immigration enforcement, while shielding ICE and CBP from commonsense reforms that would have brought them in line with law enforcement agencies around the nation.
