Congress should pass the bipartisan BARK Act, my bill to save millions of pounds of perfectly good pet food from the trash and get it to the growing population of hungry shelter dogs and cats.

The Trump Administration admitted in court that it NEVER should've abducted Kilmar, yet it continues to defy a court order to facilitate his return.
Trump claims there's nothing he can do. But as I wrote to him today, the VP of El Salvador told me explicitly — the ball is in Trump's court:

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.
