I convened local civil rights and immigration advocates to hear how ICE is impacting Florida and discuss what to do about it.

Here’s what they told me.

Honored to celebrate My Hollywood Pride's 5th anniversary this week!

I'll never stop fighting for you to love who you love, to be your authentic self, and do it with the same rights and freedom as every American should.

Last night's ruling in favor of TPS is a small measure of hope for my South Florida Venezuelan and Haitian constituents, who have seen more than enough pain and heartbreak.

My full statement:
January 29, 2026 at 3:45 PM
Anyone who believes Trump’s objective in Venezuela is democracy should look at what he’s done to democracy here.

They should be prioritizing an immediate transition of power, not propping up the same corrupt dictatorship.
Friction emerges between Trump and Venezuelan opposition over Machado’s return
The administration may prefer reliability over democracy in Caracas, worrying advocates for opposition leader María Corina Machado.

I plan to sign this discharge petition as soon as I return to Washington.

Haiti is unstable and unsafe. We cannot subject law-abiding immigrants to such cruel conditions. TPS exists for this exact purpose.
BREAKING: I just introduced a discharge petition to force a vote on extending TPS for Haiti.

Our Haitian neighbors deserve to continue their essential work & contributions to our communities.

And if Donald Trump won’t act to protect Haitian lives, then Congress must.

Kristi Noem has to go.
January 27, 2026 at 9:53 PM
This👇
Donald Trump must fire Kristi Noem immediately.

Or Democrats will initiate impeachment proceedings against her in the House.

We can do this the easy way or the hard way.

I just met with families and doctors hurt by the GOP's refusal to extend the ACA tax credits.

Pam's premiums jumped from $500 a year to over $2,000.

Steve's family saw a jump of $12,000 to more than $41,000.

The Senate must pass the tax credits immediately. It cannot wait.

Today is International Holocaust Remembrance Day.

As we remember the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau to reclaim justice for the millions who died at the hands of hate, we must remain vigilant and always speak up to ensure such horrors can never be repeated.

For 2+ years, hostage families were torn apart. We’ve not let the world move on until all hostages, living & deceased, were returned. Now, the last remaining hostage, Ran Gvili, can be honorably laid to rest.

There is much work ahead but today, my heart is with Ran’s family & the Israeli community.

We cannot accept Trump flooding our cities with undisciplined, masked agents who show no respect for our rights and use lethal force against Americans.

DHS is telling us not to trust our own eyes. They can’t be trusted to investigate these killings. Noem must resign.

Another citizen was brutally killed by federal officers in Minneapolis.

We’ve warned that Trump’s failure to impose consequences for excessive use of force would cost lives. These agents must be held accountable to the fullest extent of the law to protect Americans from harm.
Federal law enforcement agents shot and killed a person in Minneapolis on Saturday morning, according to local and federal officials. The shooting prompted a clash between the authorities and protesters who gathered at the scene. Follow live updates. www.nytimes.com/live/2026/01...

How can Trump say Haiti is dangerous enough to send a peacekeeping force, yet safe enough to send back law-abiding immigrant families?

I'm fighting to protect TPS for Haitians so our neighbors aren't subjected to chaos and violence.
January 24, 2026 at 2:49 PM
Great to meet with Chief Master Sergeant of the Air Force, David Wolfe in Washington.

As lead Democrat on the Military Construction and VA Appropriations Subcommittee, I will always work with our military leaders to ensure our troops have the resources they deserve in their service to our nation.

Congratulations to FL-25's 2025 Congressional App Challenge winners, Ishann Garg and Andrey Vasilyev! Their app, DriveSafe AI, promotes safer roads by helping drivers stay alert and focused.

I can't wait to see their next great creation!

I rejected DHS's funding bill because it fails to constrain ICE's unlawful, cruel behavior in our streets, detention centers and across South Florida. Noem's reckless FEMA mismanagement also endangers Florida lives.

I won't give Trump a blank check to terrorize Americans and law-abiding immigrants.
January 23, 2026 at 3:19 PM
I filed an amendment to the Homeland Security funding bill to protect law-abiding Haitian and Venezuelan TPS recipients from being sent back to chaos.

Republicans refused to even put it up for a vote. Shameful.

Overturning #RoevWade left millions without access to essential healthcare.

53 years after the landmark decision that gave women hope for full reproductive freedom, we are still fighting for the healthcare we deserve. I won't give up the fight until it's won.
January 22, 2026 at 4:59 PM
It was an honor to finally be able to meet María Corina Machado in person & once again share with her my solidarity with Venezuela’s legitimate leadership.

I will keep fighting to free political prisoners, achieve a democratic transition & protect the human rights of Venezuelans at home & abroad.
January 21, 2026 at 11:41 PM
Trump spent his entire first year cutting vital services for hardworking Americans because "we couldn't afford it."

But somehow we have $700 billion to buy Greenland? We should make healthcare and food affordable instead.

Today I shared with Colbert Elementary students in Hollywood how veterans work so hard to keep us all safe.

Every year, I help Broward students make valentines for our veterans so that they know just how much we appreciate their selfless service.

We must make sure our priority in Venezuela is democracy, not profit.

Honored to join Hallandale Beach, Pembroke Pines, and Davie to celebrate #MLKDay!

So proud to pay tribute to the work and legacy of Dr. King, who demanded that America live up to its promise of true freedom and equality.
