ICE just arrested a 5-year-old on his way to a soccer game in Austin. His name is Liam, just like the little boy from Minnesota. He should be in kindergarten this week. Instead he's in a trailer prison in the desert. Release Liam. Release these kids. Close the Dilley children’s prison.

Carmen Mejia was exonerated after spending 20 years in prison for a crime she did not commit. Now, ICE may pick her up because she lost her immigration status due to that wrongful conviction. Carmen should not spend one more day wrongfully detained.

Donald Trump says $200 billion is “a small price to pay” for his war with Iran. That's pretty easy for him to say. Because he never pays the price. It's not his healthcare getting cut. It's not his kids going hungry. It's not his budget getting stretched thin.

Colbert got cancelled because CBS’ owner wanted to suck up to Trump. Over and over, billionaires are auctioning off our 1st Amendment. This isn’t about the rights of a TV host. It’s about all our rights to live in a country where the president doesn’t dictate who says what.

I'm demanding Congress vote on a War Powers Resolution to stop Trump's illegal war with Venezuela.

Tomorrow, the House will vote on an amendment to block the $3.3 billion in taxpayer funding we send to Israel's military. I will vote yes. It is past time for us to end aid used to commit genocide in Gaza, kill innocents in Lebanon and beyond, and help drag us into war with Iran.

Musk has ordered Trump & Republicans to end disaster relief funding, keep childcare centers closed, and shut down government services for farmers, veterans, and retirees. None of this matters to the richest man in the world. But it should matter to us.

Today, Sen. Bernie Sanders and I introduced the Home Team Act. Too often, billionaire sports team owners are getting richer while fans and taxpayers get screwed. Our bill requires team owners to offer locals the chance to buy a team before moving it away.

A Tesla worker in my district was electrocuted to death because the company ignored safety rules. OSHA fined Tesla $50,000. Elon Musk makes that back in nine minutes from federal contracts alone. Workers’ lives are worth more than nine minutes of Elon Musk’s day.

A Tesla worker in my district was electrocuted because the company cut corners. OSHA’s fine was just $50,000. Elon Musk makes that back in nine minutes from federal contracts alone. A worker’s life is worth more than a rounding error to a billionaire.

Trump's Education Secretary Linda McMahon's family is worth $3.2 billion. The administration is trying to give her a huge tax cut, paid for by cuts to Medicaid and food assistance -- including for kids. I asked her to explain why she needs the money. She refused.

At Liam’s school, three other kids have been taken by ICE. A U.S. citizen child with a brain tumor was deported away from her Texas doctors. Austin college student Any Lopez Belloza was deported by “mistake” and still can't come home. Trump's chaos and cruelty has to end.
