Last year, at least 32 people died in ICE custody. That same year, nearly every Republican voted to give ICE an extra $75 billion.
ICE shouldn’t get a penny more – and I’m fighting to claw back that money.

In the 70s, the DOJ sued Donald Trump for housing discrimination when his properties consistently rented to white applicants but turned away people of color who applied.
So no, I’m not shocked that Donald Trump still wants to make housing more inaccessible and only for the rich.

5-year-old Génesis is an American citizen; ICE deported her to Honduras anyway. Detaining and deporting kids is horrific and cruel and fails to make us any safer.

The Trump Administration has dodged questions from Congress and provided bogus legal rationale for these military strikes – so I hope this lawsuit brings actual transparency, justice, and an order to stop these illegal strikes.

Donald Trump’s so-called “Board of Peace” is a joke. The man behind it has kidnapped the President of Venezuela, launched illegal military strikes, and threatened to take Greenland by force. And the invited members are a who’s who of human rights abusers.
