Byeeeeee.
Americans deserve a Labor Secretary who will fight for their rights — not someone fighting scandals and allegations their family members are sexually assaulting federal staff.
It’s time for Hegseth and Patel to go next.

It’s Earth Day this week and days after our astronauts returned from their mission around the moon—so it seems particularly ironic that the GOP is using this week to gut our bedrock environmental laws—including the ESA and NEPA.
We’re back at it defending our communities and our planet!
History has shown us that every setback in American history has been followed by a wave of innovation and change. We are right at the precipice of change.
So—even in this dark time—we have to be honest about where we are, but also prepare for what is possible.
Calling all high school artists in NM-01! 🎨

The deadline is this Friday! More info here: stansbury.house.gov/services/art...
There are just two ways to remove a President—Impeachment or the 25th Amendment. Here’s the political reality of what’s going on and why the GOP is failing to act. ⬇️
Americans are suffering whether it’s the cost of food, housing, gas, or utilities. The President’s failure to address inflation, his tariffs, and his wars are driving the American people over an economic cliff—and it must stop! We need housing, health care and free childcare for all!
It’s time for Hegseth to go.
Trump is clearly not fit to serve.
That’s why I am co-sponsoring a 25th Amendment bill with @raskin.house.gov.
Our country cannot afford having a madman in power.
Happy 320th birthday, Albuquerque!
We are 320 years strong—from our history and cultures, to the people and traditions that make us proud—we love you ABQ! 💪❤️
The President is putting our troops in harms way—and is not fit to serve as Commander in Chief. That is why we continue to introduce War Powers Resolutions and will keep fighting to end this war!
Earlier this week, another global flotilla mission left Spain to deliver food, medicine, and water to Gaza.
We are calling for an end to inhumane blockade to Gaza and to allow these supplies in.
The world is watching. History will remember.
Indeed—Elect more women!
It’s tax week. And, the bipartisan DOGE reboot is back—talking taxes and the IRS. 😱
But look, we can’t talk about the IRS without being honest: The tax code is broken. And, American families are suffering. Now they want to do another Big Ugly Bill and make it worse—so let’s talk about it!
It’s time for Kash Patel to step down or be removed. Period.
Last week was Black Maternal Health Week & stories like Josseli Barnica’s remind us that our work is far from over.
From joining legislation like @underwood.house.gov’s Momnibus, to partnering with community organizations in New Mexico, I am committed to ending this crisis. Our moms deserve better.
We live to fight another day! A victory tonight—as we killed a backroom deal Johnson and the WH cut to extend FISA authority for five more years. Dropped in the middle of the night.
We killed it on the Floor. But, it will be back. So we must keep fighting!
🚨FISA VOTE TONIGHT! 🚨 While you are sleeping, Republicans plan to jam a bill through the House tonight allowing the Admin to spy and collect data for the next FIVE YEARS.
No warrants REQUIRED. No real assurances a shady AG, FBI, or DNI director will follow the law. I am a NO!
Here again—possibly late night—as the GOP spirals over whether or not to extend the authority of our spy agencies without guardrails to protect Americans. Here’s what’s happening. ⬇️
Happy Arab American Heritage Month!
Honored to celebrate with so many distinguished leaders from across the country and to celebrate the languages, cultures, histories, art, music, and heritage of our Arab American communities! 💕
Release. The. Files.
It’s clear the Epstein class is still trying to cover their tracks—using the same playbook they always have: discredit, dismiss, and intimidate the survivors.
Mr. President, it’s time to comply with the law and answer to your own accusers.
END. THE WAR. NOW.
No more lives lost.
No more troops sent.
No more billions spent.
No more endless wars.
Pass our War Powers Resolution and end this madman’s war now.
End. This. War. NOW.
Why do we have lawmakers in Congress who are willing to hold fellow members of Congress accountable for sexual assault but not a President?
Save the Boundary Waters. 🌲
We must vote to extend Temporary Protected Status to Haitian families in danger. Trump’s decision to end their protections puts lives in harm’s way.
I am grateful for @pressley.house.gov’s work to get this vote to the Floor. We will not stand by while families are being torn apart!
The Trump Admin is testing the law and our resolve in the Epstein case.
Let me be clear—no promise of pardons will stop us from holding Pam Bondi & Todd Blanche accountable.
To the survivors—know that we see you & are fighting—& while the road to justice is long, we won’t stop until we get there!
It is way past time to impeach Sec. Hegseth.
He has waged an illegal war in the Middle East, violated international law, illegally invaded Venezuela, and endangered our service members. It’s time for him to go! And we grateful to Rep. Ansari for leading the way!
No one is above the law.
For over a half century, the Clean Air Act has protected our communities and our planet. But once again, the GOP is trying to gut this critical act—as a war is raging on the Middle East and there is a madman in the White House.
Not on my watch. I will be voting a hell NO.
Today we filed legislation to invoke the 25th Amendment. Here’s what it does ⬇️
