These images are repulsive. The Trump administration needs to stop their cover-up and release ALL of the Epstein Files.
🚨 BREAKING: Oversight Dems received 95,000 new photos from Jeffrey Epstein's estate. These disturbing images raise even more questions about Epstein and his relationships with some of the most powerful men in the world.

Time to end this White House cover-up. Release the files!

On Trump’s orders, DHS has condemned countless of our migrant neighbors to horrific detention centers where they've suffered abuse, faced vile conditions, and even lost their lives.

I joined @jayapal.house.gov's shadow hearing yesterday, because these atrocities cannot remain hidden in the dark.

AI is everywhere—and without civil rights protections, it can worsen the discrimination our communities already face.

That's why Congress should pass my AI Civil Rights Act with @markey.senate.gov and @repyvetteclarke.bsky.social.

We cannot allow AI innovation without AI protections.

While I'm proud of the provisions I secured for Travis, this NDAA falls short.

Trump & Hegseth are deploying troops to our streets, carrying out extrajudicial killings, & undermining our military readiness.

Congress must reassert its oversight. We need accountability—not just handouts to Trump.

It's weak and ridiculous to end this investigation before it's even started. The American people expect the truth.

I'm pushing for Congress to assert its power and do a full investigation to get to the bottom of what the Trump Administration is having our military do in the Caribbean.

Last night, I voted to overturn the president’s Executive Order that ripped away collective bargaining rights from more than 400,000 federal workers. A few Republicans joined with Democrats to fight back against this Administration's union-busting.

The Senate should pass this bill ASAP. ✊
