Republicans refuse to lower healthcare costs. Older Texans that are too young for Medicare will be hit the hardest. Theresa Hebert is one of the more than 3 million Texans who rely on healthcare subsidies. Without ACA tax credits, her premium will cost $1,000/month.

People are being harassed and arrested because of the color of their skin. Trump’s masked agents are operating without warrants, without probable cause—just discrimination. It's un-American and must end.

Can Secretary Noem look at Goerge Retes, Lenardo Vanegas, and 170+ U.S. citizens in the eye and lie to their face? We’ve read the reports, heard the stories, and seen the videos. Americans citizens, including children, are being illegally detained. This is the racial profiling dragnet we warned about.

Trump is more focused on his $200 million ballroom and bailing out Argentina than he is on re-opening the American government. Trump and Republicans need to end the shutdown and lower costs for families in Texas and across the country.

Today, the Supreme Court decided to become a partner in Donald Trump's mass deportation campaign. It is shameful and cruel. Hundreds of thousands of asylum seekers will now be subject to deportation. They fled danger and violence and came to the United States in search of safety. They have raised families and contributed to our economy as healthcare workers, teachers, and more. This is not the end, and we will keep fighting.

Dr. Rubeliz Bolivar Barrios has been released! She should never have been locked away by ICE. As an emergency and trauma doctor, she served patients in South Texas with dedication. I am grateful that she will be reunited with her 5 year-old daughter Milena and husband.

Children belong at home and in school. Not locked away at the Dilley Trailer Prison. Every day, babies and children are traumatized. The food and water make them sick. Their medical needs are often ignored. I am calling to shut down Dilley.

Everyone needs to see what I saw in Eagle Pass today. Clothing stuck on razor wire where families got trapped. Chainsaw devices in the middle of buoys. Land seized from US citizens. Operation Lone Star is barbaric — and Greg Abbott is making border communities collateral damage.

The stakes are too high to stay in the dark on Israel’s nuclear capabilities. Today, I asked Secretary Rubio if Israel has a nuclear program. He said "most of the world assesses that they do" and committed to providing more information.

Trump risked the lives of American troops and killed at least 40 people in Venezuela in pursuit of oil and profit. Congress must stop this reckless and illegal regime change war.

The Trump Administration’s unprecedented secrecy and hostility toward Congress is hurting our country. Last week, in my House Foreign Affairs Committee Dems subcommittee hearing, a Republican Administration refused to send a witness for their Republican chair. Trump is leaving his own party in Congress—and all Americans—out to dry.

All of us have seen the tragedy of Gaza. We've seen how Netanyahu's government has used US weapons to kill indiscriminately and create famine. I will not participate in this carnage. When Congress votes on sending more offensive weapons to Israel today, I will vote no. 1/

Tulsi Gabbard, Director of National Intelligence, confirmed that Israel has different objectives in the war in Iran than the U.S. This is a serious admission. Entering a war alongside an ally with different goals threatens our ability to achieve peace.

In Greg Abbott’s world dumping 1.1M Texans from the voter rolls is “election integrity” but an 87 year old women helping people vote is a criminal threat to democracy that deserves a SWAT raid. Texas Republicans are desperate to hang on to power.

President Trump has taken us to war with Venezuela, but why? Regime change, power, graft, oil, land. On the House floor, I urged my colleagues to vote for my War Powers Resolution with Rep. Jim McGovern and Thomas Massie to block the President’s illegal war and protect American troops.

Under Donald Trump, ICE has become an abusive, rouge organization. Governors like Texas Gov. Greg Abbott have made local police departments into agents of that abuse. Local law enforcement should reject partnering with ICE, and protect innocent people—like the Uzcategui-Labrador family in San Antonio—from being unlawfully detained.

The Trump Administration doesn’t want people to know about the brutality that takes place at the Dilley trailer prison—the only place in America where we imprison young children who have done nothing wrong. The food and the water make them sick. Medical care is often delayed or denied outright. The education offered is inadequate. Families are separated from one another. As a country, we cannot allow children to be treated like this. Dilley should be shut down.

ICE is running a for profit industry and locking up people like Texas court interpreter Meenu Batra, DACA recipient Juan Velasco, and Doctor Ezequiel Véliz. We've seen ICE detain, deport, and kill U.S. citizens. I am voting NO on the shutdown deal. ICE does not deserve another taxpayer dollar.

The Trump Administration illegally deported, against his mother’s will, a 4-year-old U.S. citizen with Stage four cancer. Tell me – what crime did this child commit? The rights of every American are endangered by this kind of lawless action by our government.
