Trump wants a Nobel Peace Prize, but then threatens to “annihilate” a country of more than 90 million people. It’s damaging and dangerous.

Deporting people to unsafe countries that they’ve never been to and have no connection to is inhumane and unjustifiable. Incredibly disappointed to see the Supreme Court allow this to continue until they hear oral arguments. This policy is illegal and must be stopped.

Addiction and substance use are deeply tied to economic instability and the shortage of behavioral health professionals. The Workforce Opportunities for Communities in Recovery Act takes these issues head on and will help people in recovery all across this country.

Americans have paid over $100 billion more in gas prices because of Trump’s Iran War. Stop this damn war NOW.

Two headlines, same day. A livable wage is essential for workers and good for business. Proud that Seattle continues to lead the way.

Two headlines from the same day day published by The Seattle Times overlaid two photos of Seattle. The top one reads, "Seattle ranks fourth among world's top cities." The bottom one reads, "Seattle announces 2027 minimum wage," highlighting the increase to $22.14/hour.

Despite all the noise and distraction, one thing remains true: Trump and Republicans have failed to bring down prices.

Headline from The Guardian featuring an article titled "As the US midterms approach, Trump's boasts on the economy fall flat with voters." It discusses the Iran War, tariffs, and the economy. The image shows a gas price display with high prices and an American flag in the background.

Immigration reform is one of the reasons why I ran for Congress. It is devastating to see the amount of grief and generational trauma that our country's immigration policies are creating.

DHS’s “voter database” is full of inaccuracies and has flagged eligible voters as noncitizens. It’s simply an attempt to purge voters ahead of the midterms. Grateful to see Washington Secretary of State Steve Hobbs side with WA voters, not this administration’s power grab.

Washington won't tap into a Trump administration database aimed at purging noncitizen voters, with Secretary of State Steve Hobbs calling it flawed.

Worse quality. Cheaper materials. Lower wages. Reduced staffing. These are all symptoms of businesses that have been taken over by private equity firms, which profit while making businesses go under. We need to pass the Stop Wall Street Looting Act.

Instead of spending nearly $270 BILLION on mass deportations ($2,358 PER taxpayer), we could fund: Medicaid for 12 million people. Healthcare for 5 million veterans. Free early education for 6.7 million children. Money for cruelty vs. money for community.

This week, I reintroduced the Students Not Profits Act because our taxpayer dollars should not be going to for-profit colleges that continue to fail students.

The image features text over a faded background of a college building. The prominent text reads "STUDENTS > PROFITS" in large font. Below, a message states that Rep. Jayapal has reintroduced the Students Not Profits Act to prevent taxpayer dollars from going to for-profit colleges, aiming to protect students and taxpayers from corporations and private equity firms exploiting the federal student aid system.

Trump is selling White House access to the highest bidder and Republicans refuse to do anything because they’re a cult party. We need serious ethics reforms and we need a Democratic majority to hold him accountable.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal @jayapal.house.gov · 26/09/2026

Trump and Republicans know they can’t win on their own so they’re trying to rig the midterm elections and intimidate voters. It won’t work. The American people can see right through it.

The American people are sick and tired of being denied medical care, or avoiding it altogether because it costs an arm and a leg. It’s time for Medicare for All.

I’m introducing a moratorium on our government’s use of facial recognition technology with Senator Markey. Every American deserves a reasonable expectation of privacy. We need to stop the constant, nonconsensual state of surveillance.

The image features an announcement discussing a proposed ban on government use of facial recognition technology by Jayapal and Markey. Text highlights concerns about the technology's unregulated use, potential for misidentifying individuals, and related civil rights violations.

It’s important to discuss what happened to Macklemore because it’s just another example of powerful billionaires targeting free speech that they disagree with, particularly the genocide of kids in Gaza. We must stand up to this.

Hospitals are using AI to submit insurance claims, insurance companies are using AI to dispute or deny them, and costs are up for everyone under this broken system. No more AI denials. No more unnecessary administrative costs. We need Medicare for All.

The image shows a New York Times article titled "Battle of Hospital A.I. vs. Insurer A.I. Is Pushing Medical Costs Higher." It discusses the use of artificial intelligence by hospitals and health insurers, leading to increased medical expenses.

Too many industries, from nursing homes to grocery stores, have fallen victim to private equity takeovers. I'm working with @warren.senate.gov to stop Wall Street's looting and put people over profits.

This image features photos of Sen. Warren and Rep. Jayapal with text highlighted in blue text that reads, "Sen. Warren, Rep. Jayapal introduce Stop Wall Street Looting Act." The text describes it as legislation aimed at reforming the private equity industry by holding private investment firms accountable and empowering workers and protecting investors. The background shows the U.S. Capitol building.

SHAMEFUL: A majority of Senate Republicans just blocked our bipartisan War Powers Resolution by a vote of 49-50. This is a slap in the face to the majority of Americans who want this war to end. My full statement:

An official statement titled "Jayapal Statement on Senate Blocking War Powers Resolution" dated September 24, 2026. The statement reads, "The Senate’s failure to pass my War Powers Resolution is a slap in the face to the millions of American people who want this war to end. The Senate had the opportunity to send a clear message to this administration that they would not stand for another day of his war of choice. Instead, a majority of Senate Republicans acted as a cult party and stood by Trump’s unpopular and devastating war. In the House, we will continue to pass these resolutions and demand an end to the war. It is time to reassert Congress’s constitutional authority to declare war."

At least 9 U.S. citizens have died in the West Bank since 2022, including my constituent Ayşenur Ezgi Eygi. We need accountability and answers. The Senate must pass @vanhollen.senate.gov's resolution.

The image features information about a vote being forced by Senator Chris Van Hollen to prompt the Trump administration to report on the killings of U.S. citizens in the West Bank. It includes a photo of Aysenur Ezgi Eyi, a constituent of Rep. Jayapal, who was killed. A statistic in bold states 84% of voters want investigations into U.S. citizen deaths believed to involve Israeli actions. A source is noted at the bottom.

At a moment where Trump is banning news outlets from the White House and slashing funding for education and libraries in an attempt to undermine our democracy, reading and staying engaged is an act of resistance. Thank you Jaipur Literature Festival for encouraging us to do that work.

Trump has pledged $410 million to deport immigrants to third countries — places they often have no connection to. Shut this down.

Washington Post article with a headline that reads, "Inside Trump's secret deals paying foreign governments to take unwanted deportees." It notes a pledge of at least $410 million. Below, there's an illustration of Donald Trump surrounded by money symbols and imagery representing international agreement. Overlaid the article is a red stamp that reads, "SHUT THIS DOWN."

Trump’s third country deportation policy has subjected immigrants to horrific abuse and violence in countries they have zero connection to. It’s good to see a federal court rule against this policy and side with groups like @nwirp.bsky.social. Stop third country deportations NOW.
