Trump removed Medgar Evers, a fearless veteran and civil rights leader, from an Arlington Cemetery website commemorating Black soldiers. Now the Pentagon may strip his name from a naval vessel. This isn’t about “military preparedness.” This is about erasing history.

I've been studying racist, autocratic movements in America since my childhood. So I'm not surprised by what Trump’s trying to replicate now in Texas and with DC’s police force. Lock in power by manipulating the maps and impose it through force—that’s the autocrat’s playbook.

Trump and Republicans’ “SAVE Act” isn’t about stopping noncitizens from voting in federal elections—they already can’t and don’t. It’s about changing the rules of the game. They can’t win Americans over on policy, so they want to make it harder for Americans to vote.

Over 6 years ago, the House first passed my Enhanced Background Checks Act to close the Charleston Loophole that allowed a white supremacist to obtain the gun he used to murder nine worshipers at Emanuel AME Church on June 17, 2015. I'll never stop fighting to pass this law.

Today marks 58 years since the Orangeburg Massacre—one of the deadliest incidents of the Civil Rights Movement. Students had been protesting the continued segregation of All Star Bowling Lane when state police opened fire. Today the bowling alley is being brought back to life.

Trump and Musk are directing the Social Security Administration to cut half its workforce. These are people who answer your calls when you need help and ensure you get the benefits you spent a lifetime earning. All this just to cut spending to pay for billionaire tax breaks.
