Delays don't fix the underlying problem: ICE is trying to open a massive detention center in a community that doesn’t want it and isn’t equipped to handle it.
The building was designed to be a warehouse, not a prison. DHS Secretary Mullin should scrap this unsafe & unnecessary project immediately.

I’m urging Republican leadership to take up the bill I helped introduce that bans government officials from betting on federal policy and political events.

These highly suspicious, perfectly-timed trades reek of insider trading from corrupt public officials.
The Justice Department must investigate, and Congress should hold hearings and pass reforms that work. If Republicans won’t root out this corruption, a Democratic majority Congress will.
The ceasefire with Iran is already falling apart. We don't know who is leading our negotiations. The president is sharing conflicting information and still has no exit strategy as he sends more troops overseas.
This chaos is par for the course with Trump. And it’s making us less safe.
There are no words. I'm praying for the families of the eight children killed and everyone in the Shreveport community trying to make sense of this horrific tragedy.

Americans were promised peace and lower prices if they elected Trump.
What they got instead was another war in the Middle East, skyrocketing costs, and a Republican Congress without the courage or character to hold Trump accountable or help the American people.
Young people are done with the chaos & cruelty of MAGA extremism.
They know Trump is why their health care premiums have doubled, why gas+groceries are more expensive, & why America is fighting another war in the Middle East. They’re tired of literally paying the price for Trump’s broken promises.
Trump's increasingly erratic behavior raises real questions about his fitness to serve.
I'm backing a bill to create a bipartisan Commission on Presidential Capacity so Congress is prepared to fulfill its responsibilities under the 25th Amendment if necessary.
Grateful for @pressley.house.gov's leadership on this & our colleagues who refused to back down.
Forcing 350,000 Haitians to return home to face gang violence & instability could be a death sentence.
Today, a bipartisan majority in Congress passed a bill to extend their Temporary Protected Status Trump is attempting to strip away.
Trump's unnecessary, unjustified war has already cost Americans too much. Congress has a responsibility to act.
I voted YES on the War Powers Resolution.
I joined Oscar Ramos on the Prensa Arizona podcast to break down the latest news out of Washington, my fight against Trump’s mass deportation agenda, and my work to lower costs for Arizona families.
Thanks for the great conversation, Oscar.

With the expiration of the ceasefire days away, Congress should be pulling us back from the edge. Today, Republicans chose to push us closer to it.
Congressional Republicans continue to allow an erratic narcissist to operate without any meaningful accountability or oversight. Once again they’ve refused to rein in Trump, and it’s having deadly consequences.
Donald Trump launched this war of choice without congressional authorization, without clear objectives or an exit strategy, and without the support of the American people.
This is why the Founders were explicit: the power to take this nation to war belongs to Congress, not one man.
Trump’s mismanagement of this war is making our adversaries stronger and our allies weaker, and you’re paying the price.

Trump's war in Iran has sent global oil markets into chaos, surging gas prices here at home and increasing demand for alternatives like Russian oil — handing Putin a $19 billion lifeline to strengthen his regime and his assault on Ukraine.
I'll keep fighting in Congress to protect Social Security, support family caregivers, and crack down on fraud aimed at our seniors.
Social Security is not an entitlement; it’s a benefit earned after a lifetime of hard work.
Today I met with Dana Kennedy and Jack Lunsford of AARP Arizona to strengthen our partnership and our work together.
Trump's budget entirely eliminates the program that helps low-income families afford their energy bills.
In a state where summer temperatures routinely hit 115 degrees, LIHEAP funding isn't "unnecessary,” it’s life-saving.

The Mesa West Rotary has been quietly serving those in need since 1973, from mentoring homeless Arizona high schoolers to delivering hearing aids in Mexico.
It was great to join them to discuss their work and take their questions about what's going on in Washington.
Barney Mullen is a legend at the central Phoenix Denny's. He’s spent 48 years on the job with perfect attendance & a smile that makes everyone's day a little brighter.
I was glad to present him with a Congressional Commendation to celebrate his decades of dedication and wish him a happy birthday.
The number of Arizonans getting food assistance fell by half due to Republican cuts to SNAP last year. Nearly half of those were kids.
I'm fighting to pass a bill to repeal these devastating cuts nationwide.

Each month, volunteers at the Society of St. Vincent de Paul's Mesa Urban Farm donate 500lbs of fresh produce to their kitchen serving meals to people experiencing homelessness.
I presented a Congressional Commendation to founder Mary Ann Ricketts & her team for a decade of service to our community
Yom HaShoah is a solemn day of remembrance for the six million Jews murdered in the Holocaust.
We must continue standing up to antisemitism and hatred wherever it appears.
Great to meet with Arizona leaders of Delta Sigma Theta at the State Capitol to discuss affordability, home loans for teachers and first responders, and women's health research.
I appreciate AZ Social Action Coordinator Dr. Racquel Armstrong and Social Action Chair Latasha Hampton for inviting me.
This month marks 47 years since the Taiwan Relations Act was enacted.
Taiwan is a vital U.S. partner and a cornerstone of Arizona's semiconductor future. As Co-Chair of the Taiwan Caucus, I'm committed to preserving and deepening our trade and technology partnerships.
