I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

I’m working on a longer thread on this, but to be very clear, we do not issue social security numbers (SSNs) to undocumented immigrants or foreign workers. If they have an SSN, they are documented. They may be a refugee or asylum seeker or have Temporary Protected Status. But they are documented.

Sadly, we lack the medical technology to provide senators with spines. And we may never attain it since research at the NIH has been cancelled. So read this article to learn about next steps. It’s time for a pitchfork in the road.

The IRS Free File pilot program helped 140K taxpayers save $5.6M in tax filing costs in 2024.
Despite recent claims, the program is still running and is now available to 30M people in 2025.
Any attempt to dismantle it will enrich the tax prep industry at your expense.

Most immigrants Trump targets have been here 10+ years, paying taxes, raising families, contributing to our communities.
