I stand with the brave asylum seekers and immigrants on hunger strike in ICE detention centers in Georgia and Texas. They’ve suffered horrendous conditions, poor medical treatment, and missed years of their lives without families. We must close these ICE torture camps for (cont in image...)

ICE unlawfully deported Ahmed Soliman & Samson Birhane to Equatorial Guinea—despite having no ties to the country. They’ve been physically assaulted and held in inhumane conditions. This comes after the Trump admin paid Equatorial Guinea $7.5 million for “third-country (cont in image...)

I’m telling mass surveillance technology to get the flock out of here. My new bill, the Get the Flock Out of Our Communities Act, is the only bill in Congress designed to completely prohibit the use of automated mass surveillance technology, including biometric surveillance (cont in reply...)

Trump is grossly abusing his power to raid the home of Rep. Omar. He has repeatedly attacked her, Somali Americans, and Minnesotans. @Ilhan has done nothing to justify a pre-dawn raid ahead of the election. I stand with my sister always. Quoting The Associated Press

Less than 40 days from the election, the Supreme Court sided with Trump to let him purge voters from the voter rolls. Instead of earning your vote, Trump is cheating to win. Don’t let them silence your voice. Double check your voter registration and make a plan to vote: https://t.co/eLUtJU1uYh

Pausing state executions isn’t good enough. ABOLISH THE DEATH PENALTY. Quoting The Associated Press

The Egyptian government's arrest of these 6 journalists—the entire Matsadaash newsroom—is an unprecedented escalation in its attacks on press freedom. The Egyptian government must immediately release these journalists. Quoting EuroMed Rights

Gas is too expensive. Groceries are too expensive. Utility bills are too expensive. Housing is too expensive. Trump’s wars, tariffs, and policies are making life harder for you and easier for his billionaire donors.

UPDATE: Naqaa Hamed, a journalist detained by the Israeli military, is free! This emotional video reminds us of what we’re fighting for: a Palestine free from apartheid. There are at least 38 other journalists still in Israeli detention who must be released. Welcome (cont in reply...)

For 50 years, the Hyde Amendment has blocked insurance coverage for abortions, harming people of color, LGBTQ+ people, and those with disabilities. Politicians have interfered with people’s medical decisions for too long. It’s time to end the Hyde Amendment.

This #HispanicHeritageMonth is a time to honor the generations of Latinos whose hard work, culture, and resilience have helped build our country’s story. We know the U.S. wouldn’t be the country it is today without the contributions of our Latino neighbors.

I personally know the power of ACCESS after they helped my own family and have worked there myself. So, I was thrilled to celebrate their new center, which will provide behavioral services and substance use treatment. They can transform a whole family and community.

While Republicans steal food from kids and kick people off their healthcare, organizations like Choose Healthy Life are stepping up to provide people with the healthcare they need. Together, we’ll work to make sure every family has a path to an affordable & healthy life.

University of Michigan's repression against anti-genocide student protestors is one of the most egregious infringements on academic freedom. The threat to free speech is not just coming from the White House. I stand with our brave students. New from @AmnestyUSA & (cont in reply...)

JD Vance is bragging about kicking 750,000 people off their healthcare. He should be ashamed. Without health insurance, people will die. Instead of stealing healthcare from people, our sick care system needs to be fixed with Medicare for All. https://t.co/mE1KC6YMsA

Netanyahu is the architect of the ongoing genocide of the Palestinian people. He is a war criminal and a fugitive charged by the ICC. He can, and must, be arrested and prosecuted for crimes against humanity. https://t.co/keqqQuRFEE

ICE killed another man. His name is Mario David Coronado Juarez. Mario lived and worked in Michigan for 7 years as a construction worker, sending money home to his kids in Guatemala. ICE pursued him in an unmarked car, causing a fatal car crash. These killings have to stop. #AbolishICE.

I’m honored to be recognized as the Legislator of the Year by @NABWIC. Thank you all for your leadership and advocacy to empower Black women in construction. Black women deserve a seat at the table and support as entrepreneurs in the construction industry 💪🏾.

ICE is hiding the location of thousands of detained immigrants from their families and lawyers, robbing them of their due process rights and connection to their loved ones. Congress must pass my Find Our Families Act, which would prevent this, and ABOLISH ICE. https://t.co/6orA6lkEez

Wilber Rafael Garces Perez was shot by ICE while working as a food delivery driver. They handcuffed him as he was bleeding and didn’t even allow his wife to see him in the hospital. There needs to be an independent investigation of this cruelty. ICE must be abolished.

For 60 years, Head Start has served over 40 million families and children with social services, healthcare, and improved early learning standards. Now, Trump and RFK Jr. are trying to gut the program because they don’t believe our kids deserve the same access as theirs. (cont in reply...)

TSA's use of facial recognition at our airports is not only a violation of our privacy, it's not even secured. An Inspector General report just found that a private vendor was able to extract sensitive passenger data without TSA's knowledge, and passengers were never (cont in image...)

We don’t have a healthcare system in our country–we have a sick care system. I’m thankful for the @AmericanCancer Society and all the work they do to help advance research, treatment, and policy for our neighbors.

Water Warriors from MI came to DC to declare: clean water is a human right. For far too long, huge corporations and billionaires have polluted our water for profit. Congress must pass my Water Access and Affordability Act now to stop water shutoffs & invest in clean water.

I was proud to meet with the Michigan chapter of the Veterans of Foreign War. Too often our government sends our service members to war and abandons them when they return. I will always fight to make sure our veterans have the healthcare, housing, and services they need.

With U.S. support, Saudi Arabia has bombed, blockaded, and starved the people of Yemen for over a decade. Now the Trump admin is giving them $5 billion in arms, including 2,000-pound bombs that kill indiscriminately. Enough. Let Yemen live. The Senate must block this sale.

Instead of listening to people’s demands to get rid of AI data centers, last night, Congress passed the Ratepayer “Deception” Act and went home. Congress needs to get real. It’s time to pass a national AI data center moratorium and my No AI Data Centers on Federal Lands Act.

The death penalty is a moral stain on our country and must be abolished. Quoting Equal Justice Initiative

As Israel's defense minister pledges to "finish the job" of genocide in Gaza, the Trump admin is sending the apartheid regime $2.8 billion of bombs, using your tax dollars. That's 40,000 bombs, weighing 2,000 pounds each. The Senate must act to block this sale immediately.

Today, we remember the thousands of Palestinian refugees and Lebanese killed in the Israeli-backed Sabra and Shatila massacre in Beirut. 44 years later, Israel continues to commit genocide in Palestine and Lebanon, armed and supported by our government. This ongoing Nakba did Quoting The IMEU

Young leaders are ready for change–and they’re not waiting. I sat down with my Sigma brothers for a conversation about a simple truth: it doesn’t have to be this way. They can help transform our country for the better. https://t.co/9NfAa4RpeA

Speaker Johnson CANCELLED votes tomorrow so @RepThomasMassie's articles of impeachment won't go to the floor. This is ridiculous. Let us do our job. Quoting Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib

I support Rep. Massie’s articles of impeachment against Pete Hegseth. He has presided over the slaughter of thousands of civilians in immoral wars, aided and abetted genocide, and led a campaign of extrajudicial assassinations. He belongs in the Hague, not our government.

Happy Rosh Hashanah to all who celebrated. I hope your holiday was full of love, joy, and hope, continuing to bring you and your loved ones closer as we approach Yom Kippur.

The Trump administration is trying to deport Dr. Badar Khan Suri, a beloved teacher and father, for speaking out for justice and against the genocide in Palestine. This is a clear assault on our First Amendment rights. Justice for Badar Khan Suri. Our voices cannot be silenced.

🚨The House is voting on the Ratepayer “Protection” Act 🚨 I’m voting no on this bill that fails to meaningfully protect our communities. The strongest action Congress can take right now is to pass a national moratorium on data centers and enact a prohibition on federal lands.

The images from Alligator Alcatraz are horrifying: cramped spaces, bug-infested showers, metal cages under the scorching heat, and more. Our tax dollars should not be used to cage and torture our neighbors. Abolish ICE. https://t.co/tcATjXbVCF
