Rep. Quigley and I led 41 of our colleagues in a letter calling on Secretary Rubio to work with Israel to ensure the release of Palestinian healthcare workers. They are arbitrarily being detained without formal charges or due process.

I’m joining @pocan.house.gov in fighting for the release of Palestinian healthcare workers in Gaza. Since the start of the war, Israel has arrested hundreds of essential healthcare workers, leaving civilians with no one to turn to.

Trump spent $2.5 million in taxpayer funds on his latest campaign ad.  While Americans are struggling to put food on the table, he’s breaking Ethics 101.

The Senate passed my bill reauthorizing the ACT for ALS this week!🎉 I want to thank my Senate colleagues, Senator Murkowski and @coons.senate.gov, for getting this done and Rep. Calvert for leading this bill with me in the House. Now, the bill heads to the President’s desk to be signed into law!

If Democrats take the House in November, Congressman @jahimes.bsky.social and the Intelligence Committee are ready to hold everyone in power—private and public sector—accountable. We can’t have a president doling out taxpayer dollars to his buddies while slashing other contracts. buff.ly/62jorb9

Eight American servicemembers have attempted suicide while aboard the USS Lincoln—the tortured ship that has been deployed for almost a year and suffered moldy showers and food shortages because of Trump’s Iran War.

Trump's immigration enforcement is out of control — again. Last week, they shot a DoorDasher in Texas. We've seen ICE & CBP lie about these shootings before, including in Chicago. I’m calling for an independent investigation into this shooting and for all perpetrators to be held accountable.

We are now six months into the Iran War, and President Trump and Pete Hegseth are still pouring billions of taxpayer dollars into this failed operation. Congress needs to take action. I’m cosponsoring Rep. Ryan’s No Funds for Iran War Act to turn off the faucet for good.

Under Trump and Markwayne Mullin, ICE is handing out job offers before completing basic vetting like fingerprinting and identity checks. I’m cosponsoring @repfletcher.bsky.social's Freeze ICE Act to institute a hiring freeze—until the madness ends and we have qualified immigration enforcement.

In another move to add $1 TRILLION to the national debt, President Trump tried to bribe voters by offering Americans $5,000 dividends “if Republicans win the House and the Senate” this November. The emperor has no clothes. The American people see this for what it is: another false promise.

Across the US, local police officers use body cameras every day. What are ICE and CBP trying to hide that they refuse to do the same? I co-sponsored @repespaillat.bsky.social legislation to require these agents to wear the body cameras Congress already bought for them. Transparency isn't optional.
