DOJ’s indictments against Trump were built on months of investigation and pages of hard evidence.    Trump’s new indictments against @Comey and @TishJames? Six pages. Contrived counts. No case.    Justice must come from the facts and the evidence — not Trump’s feelings.

OMB Director @RussVought is shamelessly using the Republican shutdown as cover to execute his Project 2025 deconstruction of the federal government.  These political mass firings violate the Antideficiency Act and are an illegal attack on our civil service. They engineered the…

No “clean CR” exists when Trump defies Congress and unilaterally guts programs—from law enforcement to pediatric cancer research to clean energy projects.   Republicans want Democratic cover to keep breaking the law. Democrats won’t play along.

Trump isn’t just shuttering the government to raise health care costs; he’s withholding billions in critical funding for Hudson Tunnel and Second Ave. subway projects to punish NYC. This isn't budget work. It's a ruthless plot to hold the nation’s largest city hostage. Trump…

A President who uses the government shutdown to target "Democrat (sic) programs" for cuts is a President who is blinded by political vengeance and ignores the needs of the American people. These "Democrat (sic) programs" are clean energy jobs, vital infrastructure, and essential…

The people of Arizona’s 7th district overwhelmingly voted two weeks ago to send @AdelitaForAZ to Washington to represent them.   But Speaker Johnson won’t swear her in because she would be the 218th and final signature on the Epstein discharge petition that would require a floor…

The political prosecution of Comey, the targeting of NYAG Tish James, and the closing of a bribery investigation into border czar Tom Homan are proof Trump has turned the DOJ into a political vehicle to punish opponents and protect allies.  This is how the rule of law crumbles,…

Trump and the GOP are shutting down the government because they are more interested in inflicting pain on Americans than helping them avoid pain with lower health care costs.   Stop the war on working families and reopen the government.

Donald Trump’s baseless and politicized indictment of Attorney General Letitia James is a direct attack on the rule of law and our democracy. My full statement:

Trump’s demand to jail @GovPritzker & @ChicagosMayor is the act of a tyrant who does not believe in democracy. This is an alarming escalation of his ruthless plot to seize control of the federal government and abuse his power to use it to attack Democratic-led cities.  We…

After voting to kick 15 million Americans off of their health insurance in Trump’s Big Ugly Bill, Republicans have now shut down the government because they refuse to extend lifesaving ACA tax credits that over 22 million Americans rely on.   If they don’t act, millions of…

I am beyond overjoyed that the remaining hostages are finally coming home and that the war will end. We never did forget. I congratulate all those involved in brokering this historic agreement, and am hopeful that this plan creates a blueprint for Israelis and Palestinians to…

Donald Trump himself signed the bill guaranteeing back pay for federal workers. Now he’s threatening to break it and deny 750,000 federal employees their paychecks.    Nobody is fooled by Trump’s hollow and illegal threats, and Democrats won’t be swayed by them. Instead of…

A $50,000 cash bribe. Caught on video. FBI investigation mysteriously closed. Still appointed 'Border Czar.' We need to know: Who on the Trump-Vance team knew about Tom Homan's corruption before his appointment, and why did they cover it up? The American people deserve the…

Trump’s threats to invoke the Insurrection Act is an alarming escalation ripped straight from the Project 2025 playbook.    He would rather militantly crack down on peaceful, lawful protests than work across the aisle to open the government and protect health insurance for…

Donald Trump has turned the DOJ into a political weapon against his opponents and a green light for corruption by his friends and allies. The Preventing Political Prosecutions Act puts guardrails in place to stop this abuse of power and to protect our democracy.    Swipe to learn…

As Trump terrorizes law-abiding immigrant families across our country, schoolchildren are being arrested, detained, and deported.  In NYC alone, at least five children have been detained—one just 6 years old.  @RepAOC, @RepEspaillat and I are demanding answers for ICE’s immoral…

Two years after Hamas’s barbaric terror attack, we mourn the 1,200 innocent Israelis killed and pray for the 48 hostages who remain in Hamas’s brutal captivity in Gaza.   We are on the brink of a final agreement to end this devastating war and to set the stage for a future for…

Republicans call it a budget. I call it what it is: a ruthless plot to dismantle health care. 15M lose coverage, 22M face $1,000+ hikes, and seniors see $500B stolen from Medicare. Families will pay the price for this cruelty.
