IRS leader Bisignano declines to answer questions over unlawful taxpayer data disclosures to ICE
IRS chief Frank Bisignano has largely declined to answer questions from lawmakers about unlawful releases of taxpayer data to immigration agents.
The IRS has damaged Americansβ trust by sharing confidential tax data with DHS & ICE.
I grilled IRS CEO Bisignano repeatedly on how the Trump admin is working to restore that trust.
He refused to say how he will resolve this issue.

The American people deserve to know the plan & justification before rushing into war. Thatβs why the Constitution gives Congress the authority to declare war β not a singular person.
@adamsmith.house.gov & I discussed the importance of voting for todayβs War Powers Resolution.

Under Kristi Noemβs failed leadership at Homeland Security, innocent Americans were brutally killed in broad daylight & ICE agents created violence & terror in our communities. Itβs long past time she was fired.

Gas prices have been rising in Washington & across the country. In just a month, the price of gas jumped 43 cents, & spiked in the last week because of the presidentβs war in Iran.

The Trump administration illegally shared personal taxpayer data with DHS & ICE over 42,000 times.
I pressed IRS CEO Bisignano today on this mishandling of sensitive information & breach of trust with the American people.

The Constitution grants Congress the power to declare war to prevent unilateral decisions by a king. Congress should pass a bipartisan War Powers Resolution this week to limit this action & provide the American people with answers & transparency.

BREAKING: The Supreme Court just ruled that Trumpβs sweeping tariffs are illegal. This is a big win for families & small businesses that have seen their prices go up.
The president is not a king. Weβre going to keep fighting if the administration continues to ignore congressional authority.

New report from Democrats: TrumpRx drugs could cost thousands more than generics
Democrats looked at the cost of the name-brand drugs on TrumpRx. Turns out, Americans could save thousands per year on many prescriptions by just purchasing generics.
Trump is touting a new prescription drug website, but it could end up costing you more. The platform funnels people towards expensive brand-name drugs while avoiding cheaper generics.
We need real solutions to lower health care costs, not smoke & mirrors.

Trump Administration Erases the Governmentβs Power to Fight Climate Change
Trump is giving fossil fuel companies a free pass to pollute at the expense of our health.
The admin is dismantling our ability to protect communities from greenhouse gases & will make kids sicker, push prices higher, & destroy our environment.
