A great deal of our problems result from not holding those who tried to destroy our democracy accountable for their actions.

Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion matter and strengthen our economy.

But Trump's mass federal layoffs and anti-DEI policies have caused Black women's unemployment to spike — a devastating warning of where our economy is headed.

That's why I'm demanding the Fed address this crisis.

I stand with the #GlobalSumudFlotilla, including dozens of U.S. citizens, bringing vital aid to Gaza to fight this man-made famine.

This peaceful, humanitarian mission is legal under international law & the Israel govt must guarantee their safety.

End the blockade. Surge aid. Ceasefire now.

Grandmothers. Mothers. Daughters. Have been fighting for decades. The 19th Amendment of the Constitution in 1920 was only the start. The fight never ends. There are now calls to repeal women’s right to vote. Unite and Rise with 8.5 million other voters. Together we are stronger. bit.ly/4g5RcEq

Survivors of Epstein’s abuse deserve transparency, accountability, & healing.

That’s why I signed a discharge petition to force a vote on the House floor to release all the files.

And we won’t stop our push for a full, public Congressional hearing to ensure survivors are heard.

Parents know the pain of a hungry baby's cry.

Imagine instead of fumbling for a bottle a military blockade is preventing you from feeding your child.

Rubio must pressure the Israeli govt to surge humanitarian aid into Gaza, including ready-to-feed baby formula. www.bostonglobe.com/2025/08/25/m...
Pressley, more than 100 other lawmakers call for surge of baby formula into Gaza - The Boston Globe
The lawmakers are calling for the Trump administration to demand the Israeli government "facilitate a massive surge of humanitarian aid to enter Gaza."

First, the Trump Admin unlawfully deported Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a gulag in El Salvador.

Now, days after he was reunited with family, they want to deport him to Uganda.

This is another shameful violation of his right to due process & Trump must stop targeting him immediately.
Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the immigrant who the U.S. wrongfully deported to El Salvador, was taken into ICE custody on Monday, his lawyer said, after the Trump administration indicated it planned to deport him again, this time to Uganda.
Abrego Garcia Detained Again After Administration Signaled It Would Re-Deport Him
The move came only three days after he was freed from custody in the criminal case that was filed against him in Federal District Court in Nashville.

🚨To be CLEAR: Our military exists to defend America — not to help Trump intimidate Americans.
