Justice has finally been served.

The House and the Senate have sent a clear, unanimous message: the American people deserve transparency. Let’s see those files, Mr. President.

Cities all over the nation are facing despicable racial profiling. These disgusting actions must be stopped, and ICE agents must be held accountable. It's why I introduced legislation to end qualified immunity for ICE.

Just voted to release the Epstein files. The Senate must do the same immediately!

No more delays, no more Trump cover-ups
November 18, 2025 at 9:17 PM
After months of failed attempts to cover up the Epstein files by Donald Trump (who could've released these files on his first day in office), we will finally vote on their release.

I will be voting to release the Epstein files: the American people deserve full transparency.
November 18, 2025 at 6:57 PM
Make no mistake: Trump’s flip flop isn’t sudden compassion for the victims of Epstein’s horrific crimes.

Instead, Trump knows his work to prevent the release of these files were a losing effort, and he’s trying anything to save face. #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles

The administration’s end-of-year report card is out — and spoiler alert: they flunked.

President Trump has not only failed to deliver for hardworking Americans, he is actively making our lives harder and more expensive.

Everyone deserves to retire with dignity. It was great to join the residents of Gratiot Woods Co-op in Detroit today to talk about affordable housing, healthcare, and how I’m fighting for them in Washington.

$40 BILLION for Argentina.
$2 BILLION for a name change.
$300 MILLION for a ballroom.

Trump and Republicans can find money for everything except for the health and economic wellbeing of the American people.

I will never stop fighting for affordable healthcare.

No health care? No deal.

We can’t trust Republican “promises” when the lives of Americans are at stake.

A federal judge ordered Trump to feed hungry kids.

His response? Appeal the ruling and fight the order.

They'd rather use your hunger as their weapon.

Thank you, Madam Speaker.

Your grace and leadership are an inspiration, and the difference you've made is incalculable.

Donald Trump promised to lower costs on Day 1. Instead, the cost of everything, from groceries to housing, has skyrocketed.

To bring prices down, I’m calling on HUD to build 100,000 units of affordable housing in our community.
November 5, 2025 at 8:26 PM
Americans spoke loud and clear: We need to bring down costs.

It's time for Mike Johnson to call the House back so we can bring down healthcare costs and restore SNAP for working families.
November 5, 2025 at 7:43 PM
The president isn’t a king.

Millions of seniors, kids, veterans, and people with disabilities rely on SNAP—Trump must fund it now.

My Republican colleagues need to stand up and demand he follow the law. Hunger can’t wait.
