Imagine illegally shipping legal immigrants to a concentration camp overseas — then crying on national TV because someone pointed out you don’t know the damn law.
She’s not a victim. She’s the architect of state violence. Save your sympathy.

House GOP is holding a hearing on their tax bill at 1:00 AM because they don't want us to know about their scheme to strip 13.7 million people of health coverage & they think no one will stay awake for it.
I’ll be there, testifying & offering amendments to protect our families.

Republicans are saying one thing and doing another.
Trump said he'd "love and cherish Medicaid."
Meanwhile, their bill throws 13.7 million Americans off their health insurance.
If any Republican wants to protect Medicaid, they can sign my discharge petition and do it today.

House Republicans are meeting tonight at 1 AM to try to cut Medicaid and SNAP benefits while Americans are asleep.
We cannot let this go unnoticed. I'm running for Congress to flip Arizona's 1st blue, flip the House blue, and protect your benefits.
