I joined legislation to block Trump's $1.8 BILLION slush fund for his allies. People who attacked the Capitol and assaulted police officers do not deserve a penny from taxpayers for following Trump's orders. Americans shouldn't be forced to finance Trump's militia or his cronies, and I am proud to join Congressman Jamie Raskin in stopping this grift.

Pride Month is more than rainbows and parades, it is a protest—a demand for fairness, dignity, and equality under the law.

Happy Pride! As begins today, we must remember that this month is about more than parades and rainbows.

Pride is—and always has been—a protest; a demand for equal treatment & the right to live openly.

Bondi refuses to answer lawmakers' questions about Trump's involvement in Epstein files release 05/29/2026

Pam Bondi is back on Capitol Hill, yet she still refuses to take any accountability for the botched handling of the Epstein files. Now, House Republicans are shielding her from public scrutiny, by allowing her to testify behind closed doors without cameras. The survivors of Jeffrey Epstein deserve justice and transparency, yet House Republicans are trying to bury the truth.

I was proud to vote in favor of the Epstein Files Transparency Act, but the Department of Justice continues to block the full release of these files. The American people should be asking why. This cover-up extends far beyond Pam Bondi; it extends through the entire Republican Party and the White House.

Miné Okubo's art helps preserve the experiences of Japanese Americans who faced unjust incarceration at the hands of our government. Her illustrations continue to educate new generations about the consequences of prejudice and the importance of protecting civil liberties for all. I am proud to honor her work and legacy this AANHPI Heritage Month.

The President is more obsessed with demolishing the White House than with making life more affordable.
