Under a zero tolerance policy, the first Trump administration separated immigrant children from their families at the U.S.-Mexico border.

Data suggests separations are now happening all over the country, often after little more than a traffic stop.

The richest 0.1% of Americans control $22 trillion in wealth.

The bottom 50% control $3.8 trillion in wealth.

The Dallas ICE office is involved in a mass removal effort targeting nearly 200 people โ€” many without removal orders โ€” scheduled to be deported to El Salvador today.

This is not just cruel โ€“ it is lawless. I refuse to stay quiet while families are being torn apart, and lives are being put at risk.

๐Ÿšจ SB 33 is a direct attack on our communities. It bans local governments from helping people access abortion care โ€” including support for travel, lodging, childcare, food, or even counseling. This cruel bill doesnโ€™t just block funding - It silences compassion and replaces it with control.

Top Social Security Official Leaves After Musk Team Seeks Data Access The departure of the acting commissioner is the latest backlash to the Department of Government Efficiencyโ€™s efforts to access sensitive data.

Donald Trump is selling out our seniors to Elon Musk.

He is handing over control to sensitive Social Security information to an UNELECTED billionaire.

Is Trump too weak to tell Musk no?

Is he using Musk to cut Social Security so he doesn't have to take the blame?

HB22 the Save Act targets amendments to the Voter Registration Act of 1993. For citizens whose birth certificate displays a different last name than a state issued ID, presents challenges.
Itโ€™s already illegal to vote if you are not a citizen.

With Sweeping Executive Orders, Trump Tests Local Control of Schools The orders seek to encourage โ€œpatriotic educationโ€ and restrict discussions about racism and gender by threatening to withdraw federal funding. But schools are often resistant to change.

The government has no right to decide what name or nickname your child goes by in class.

The government has no right to pick out what clothes your child wears to school.

This is not just an attack on trans children. It's an attack on personal choice.

Women deserve to know the TRUTH about the impact of Texas' total abortion ban.

Today, I along with Rep. Gerry Connolly, Rep. Summer Lee, and Rep. Ayanna Pressley sent ANOTHER letter calling on
Texas to explain why it won't release maternal mortality data from the past 2 years after Dobbs.
