I stopped by the warehouse that was sold to DHS/ICE. It’s massive. We cannot let the sort of human suffering & indignity that happens at these facilities continue. Demand your elected officials stand up, speak out & use whatever power they have to prevent this from happening. Abolish ICE. Prosecute.

Young Americans in Utah and NYC face the same struggles: skyrocketing rent, stagnant wages, and price gouging everywhere they go. Proud to endorse @nateforutah.bsky.social + @claireforny.bsky.social who understand incremental change is useless to a generation that’s been screwed over from the start.

We don't need to compromise. Utah's 1st District voted for Kamala Harris by 24 points, giving us an opportunity to send a real progressive to DC. In Congress, I'll do what I've always done: stand up and speak out against corruption when I see it, whether the special interests like it or not.

On the picket line with Suntrapp workers, at the courthouse confronting ICE, fighting for trans rights at the capitol -- I've been there to listen, fight and speak up for those so often sidelined by the establishment. This campaign isn't about me, it's about giving all of us a seat at the table.

It was great speaking at the town hall hosted by the 71 Percent Coalition and tonight. Meeting with grassroots organizations in our community is crucial for building progressive governance and ensuring our leaders are held accountable. Would love to see you at the next one, @benmcadams.bsky.social!

Rep. Jill Tokuda has spent her career standing up for her community - fighting for climate, health care, and well-funded schools. I want a government that works for the people, not big corporations. I’m excited to work alongside US Rep. Tokuda to challenge corruption and deliver for our communities.

I appreciated the opportunity to join faith and community leaders for an iftar celebration at Utah Islamic Center this evening. Religious freedom and freedom from religion are core tenets of America, and everyone deserves to practice their faith and beliefs in peace and safety.

Utah consistently ranks as one of the lowest in the country in gender equality. This International Women's Day let's recognize we can and must do better. We need leaders who won't hesitate to codify Roe, repeal the Hyde Amendment, and chisel away at the systems that perpetuate gender inequality.

The legislature continues their attacks on schools, housing, environment, civil rights, healthcare, and our judiciary. They depend on our willingness to play along. Well I’m done playing.

Inserting a love letter to Trump in an otherwise good sentiment is just embarrassing. We must recognize the role of billion dollar agricultural companies sucking up the Great Salt Lake for a quick buck, and under no circumstances must we "hand it to" Donald Trump.

Republicans' bill fearmongering about detransition (only seen in less than 1% of transgender people) was earmarked for $0, practically admitting they knew it would never be used. This culture war is costing real lives over an imaginary crisis, and we need leaders who aren't afraid to call it out

Voices: I’ve seen the Disability Law Center change lives. Utah must preserve its independence. “People with disabilities deserve advocates who can fight for them, support them and ensure that their rights and dignity are protected,” writes Matthew Wappett in an op-ed.

Americans have been loud and clear on this issue: no more forever wars. We must be able to say in no uncertain terms that what Trump is doing in Iran is not just wrong because he didn't fill out the proper paperwork, it's wrong because killing and endangering people overseas for Israel is wrong.

While Republicans have undermined the security of elections across the country, our LG has stood up against the politics. HB 529 was an attempt to remove her from the picture by hiding the ball and saying this is about policy not personality. I'm glad I was able to stop this bill in its tracks.

Press question of the day:

When will we start covering wage stagnation with the same urgency as stock market highs? Working people feel inflation every day that CEOs feel record gains.

Let’s connect the dots.

We're living through the same story all over again. Trump is starting yet another war in the Middle East on the behest of Israel, killing people abroad as a substitute for helping people at home. This is unacceptable. Congress must act to put the White House in check and say no to forever wars.

While there are several high profile instances of murder committed with a firearm on campuses in Utah in recent years, Republicans deny there's a problem and want to expand access. Rather than address real problems with real evidence, what we're seeing is a pattern of putting politics over people.

Donald Trump has taken a jackhammer to regular Americans' health, safety, and financial security all to the benefit of his billionaire friends. This State of the Union Address was a national embarrassment, and we need Democrats in Congress who are willing to call it out.

Trump's approval rating is barely positive in Utah. We don't have to act like the cruel and nasty MAGA politics are popular here. If young people mobilize and vote in the youngest state in the nation, we can change our trajectory. Let's do it.
