While Australia is granting asylum to members of Iran’s women’s soccer team, Trump continues to ban Iranians from this country and has deported hundreds who could face persecution by the regime. That’s why I’ve introduced the Artemis Act to protect asylum seekers who’ve fled the brutal regime.

Southwest Human Development plays a critical role in supporting families across Arizona. I sat down with their hardworking staff to learn more about the work they do.

I’ll continue to fight for investments in programs that families rely on, including Head Start, Medicaid, and food assistance.

Trump's arch is a waste of taxpayer dollars, a monument to his ego, and a platform for his authoritarian ambitions.

Its construction without Congressional approval is a blatant violation of federal law, and I've joined my colleagues in challenging it.

Why did Pam Bondi wait so long to release FBI files revealing that a young girl reported being sexually assaulted by Donald Trump?

I’ll be demanding answers when she appears under the Oversight Committee’s subpoena.

Donald Trump has shown time and again that freedom and democracy for the Iranian people are not his priority.

He launched an illegal war—risking tens of thousands of U.S. servicemembers—without congressional approval or a clear plan.

I agree. Donald Trump needs to be deposed.

End the White House cover up now.

I’m proud to have secured more than $17.7M in Community Project Funding for AZ-03.

From solutions to combat extreme heat to revitalizing our parks and building more shelter beds to address homelessness, these diverse investments reflect what our communities have told us they need the most.

I am devastated and horrified by this tragedy. ICE killed Nurul Amin Shah Alam, a nearly blind refugee, by leaving him to freeze to death on a cold winter night on a Buffalo street without contacting his family or his lawyer. They're cruelty knows no bounds and this is why ICE must be abolished.

Republicans are trying to claim that Donald Trump is exonerated. Nothing could be further from the truth.

The past few days of depositions have made it clear: Trump must testify before Congress immediately.

As was demonstrated with President Clinton today, nobody is above the law. The White House cover up must end.

President Trump and other members of his administration implicated in the Epstein Files must testify before Congress.

If Republicans were serious about this investigation, we would be deposing Donald Trump.

This is the most egregious cover up in U.S. history. We won’t stop until there’s accountability and justice for Epstein survivors.

Former President Bill Clinton’s deposition today sets a clear precedent: presidents and former presidents can and should testify before this committee.

That includes Donald Trump, who's named in the Epstein Files more than almost anyone else.

Kash Patel and Pam Bondi are covering up for the rich and powerful. Patel's FBI interviews are now being withheld by Bondi's DOJ. It's unacceptable. They must be held accountable.

I called it a clown show because that’s what it is.

It’s appalling to watch Republicans turn an investigation into child sex abuse and trafficking into a political stunt.

Chairman Comer and House Republicans are complicit in the most egregious coverup in American history.

This is the most egregrious cover up in American history, and Kash Patel and Pam Bondi are complicit. We must hold them accountable and continue fighting to get justice for the survivors.

I strongly support securing our critical mineral supply chains & advancing U.S. leadership. But that’s not what Trump & Republicans are doing.

There’s a corruption story here, & Republicans are risking our public health, gutting environmental protections & harming public lands in the process.

Yari belongs with Sonia. She deserves care. She deserves dignity. And she deserves freedom.

Yari is a green card holder with leukemia who has been locked inside an ICE detention center for over a year. Yari has no criminal record. The real state of our union is whether people like Yari are safe. Whether the sick receive care. Whether human dignity still matters. Free Yari.

Sonia and I are skipping the State of the Union. We refuse to normalize Trump’s corrupt, racist regime. His cruelty is why Sonia’s partner, Yari, has been detained at ICE’s Eloy facility for over a year.

Tune in at 8pm EST/6pm MST for the People’s State of the Union. We’re telling her story.

ICE agents are engaging in rampant illegal actions, in direct violation of the U.S. Constitution. Listen to what whistleblowers and victims of their abuse had to say.

I’m skipping the State of the Union tomorrow because I refuse to normalize an authoritarian. Instead, I’ll be joined by Sonia Almaraz, whose loved one Yari has been detained by ICE for the past year.

I met with the NACHC advocates from Arizona and I'm grateful for the work they do to support and speak out for community health centers throughout Arizona.

As Republicans continue to gut healthcare, working with NACHC advocates is needed now more than ever before.

By repealing the EPA’s legal foundation to limit pollution, Trump and Lee Zeldin are causing more pollution, higher medical bills, and more dangerous heat and weather. Instead of choosing the health and lives of American families, they're lining the pockets of oil and gas CEOs.
