Housing is a human right. Healthcare is a human right. The United States is a country built by and for immigrants & refugees.

To the world:
We are fighting back. Our movement has been silenced by the media here—but we are not backing down. This is what our streets looked like across multiple cities. Tomorrow, there will be more of us! Raise a glass to freedom.

This cannot be understated. If we do not have due process in this country, what do we have?

This could be you. Your family member. Your loved one. Your neighbor.

If you accept that non-citizens have no right to due process, you are accepting that citizens have no right to due process. All the government has to do is claim that you are not a citizen; without due process you have no chance to prove the contrary.

Can someone tell me why immigration agents would arrest a US citizen? Do they even have the authority to do that? chicago.suntimes.com/immigration...

THIS ISN’T SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN IN AMERICA.

WHERE IS LAW AND ORDER? WHERE IS DUE PROCESS? WHERE IS FREE SPEECH?

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable.

Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes.

Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.

Americans are suffering under the weight of sky-high housing prices.

Today, I’m re-introducing my bill with @warnock.senate.gov and @cleaver.house.gov to build 3 million new homes, bring down rents by 10%, and cut red tape that drives up costs.

Congress must act.
Why housing affordability keeps getting worse
Rising prices and a shortage of affordable homes have driven many folks to rent.

Mahmoud Khalil should be at home with his pregnant wife.

Instead, he's been illegally abducted & had his constitutional right to free speech & due process stripped.

We're demanding his immediate release and we cannot allow this abuse of power to go unchecked. #FreeMahmoudKhalil
