Last night, The Pitt honored the victims of the horrific Pittsburgh synagogue shooting and shared a moving story about the solidarity of our Jewish and Muslim neighbors in Pittsburgh following the antisemitic attack.

We cannot allow the federal government to spy on American citizens under the cover of darkness.
I introduced the COINTELPRO Full Disclosure Act, and I hope Rep. Luna and my colleagues will join me to get transparency around these FBI operations.

ICE isn't a rogue agency.
It’s operating exactly as it was intended: to systematically target and inflict violence on immigrants and marginalized people.
It must be abolished.

ICE continues to move with impunity—terrorizing communities, kidnapping children, and murdering our neighbors, all enabled by our tax dollars.
I'm proud to join @ramirez.house.gov and @repyvetteclarke.bsky.social in introducing the Melt ICE Act as a step towards abolishing this lawless agency.

Kids like Liam should be learning to read and playing with their friends. Instead, ICE is traumatizing an entire generation.
They're kidnapping kids, assaulting protestors, deporting citizens--all funded by our taxpayer dollars. And today the House votes to give them more money.

This is a win for our schools, our kids, & our communities.
Last year I demanded the administration stop their attacks on marginalized students.
I'm relieved that they have realized the courts will not uphold their anti-diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility agenda & dropped the case.

Today we had an opportunity to hold Pam Bondi accountable for refusing to release the full, unredacted Epstein files in accordance with our bipartisan subpoena issued in August last year.
Instead of supporting my amendment, Republicans are allowing her and the DOJ to play us for fools.

I just introduced an amendment to hold Pam Bondi in civil contempt of Congress.
Since August, she has been legally compelled by our bipartisan subpoena to release the full Epstein files.
Without the files, we can't have a serious investigation. It's time she answer for her role in this cover up.

It's always been abolish ICE.
For the first time, more Americans support abolishing ICE than oppose it. But Republicans are proposing hundreds of millions in funding for this lawless agency.
I'll oppose this bill. We cannot give more money to an agency responsible for terrorizing our communities.

Too many families are living in homes owned by some distant investor who treats them like a paycheck instead of people. This is the result of a system that subsidizes corporate landlords while everyday people struggle to find a safe, stable place to call home. (1/2)

Dr. King warned us that racism, economic exploitation, and militarism were the three evils of society. He wasn't about sanitized action to make people comfortable; he was dedicated to ending inequity, redistributing wealth, and dismantling systems of oppression.

It's not enough to just test for and address it, we have to be proactive in rooting it out.

We have a childcare crisis in this country.
In my home state of PA, the system is so broken that childcare workers would spend nearly half their salary to get care for their own kids.
If Republicans were serious about affordability, they should consider the Child Care for Working Families Act.

Mike Johnson is saying the quiet part out loud––shooting a woman in the face, tearing apart families, and terrorizing our neighbors is what ICE is *supposed* to be doing.
This is a lawless agency that can't be reformed, retrained, or reined in. It has to be abolished.

This is a huge win for working people. When the Trump admin laid off hundreds, workers spoke up, communities fought back, and we stood with them to demand better.
Now those workers can finally return to the jobs they were hired to do and keep the American people safe.
