TPS for Yemen must be restored.
I’m proud to represent a district home to a large Yemeni community. I will not turn my back on them.
DHS unjustly terminated TPS for Yemen without care for the ongoing humanitarian catastrophe and escalating armed conflict facing the country.

The Trump admin bombed civilians in Yemen last year, and is currently trying to give the Saudi monarchy billions of dollars in bombs and jets to continue the devastation.
The State Dept. warns against any travel to Yemen—yet Trump wants to send our neighbors back.

The commander of the Israeli military unit likely responsible for killing 5-year-old Hind Rajab is currently in the U.S.
As a party to the Genocide Convention and the Geneva Conventions, our government is obligated to arrest and investigate him for these war crimes and acts of genocide. I stand with @HindRFoundation in calling on the DOJ to follow the law and take action.
🇺🇸🚨 The #HindRajabFoundation has filed an urgent request with the U.S. Department of Justice, demanding the immediate investigation, arrest, and prosecution of Sean Glass, currently present in the United States. Glass commanded the Israeli unit implicated in Hind Rajab's murder. HRF's investigation places the 52nd Battalion—including Glass and his Vampire Empire Company—near her vehicle during the killing. Today, Glass walks free in the U.S.

I stand with the brave asylum seekers and immigrants on hunger strike in ICE detention centers in Georgia and Texas.
They’ve suffered horrendous conditions, poor medical treatment, and missed years of their lives without families.
We must close these ICE torture camps for good.

ICE unlawfully deported Ahmed Soliman & Samson Birhane to Equatorial Guinea—despite having no ties to the country. They’ve been physically assaulted and held in inhumane conditions.
This comes after the Trump admin paid Equatorial Guinea $7.5 million for “third-country removals.”
Abolish ICE. End Trump’s cruel deportations. Bring Ahmed and Samson home.

I’m telling mass surveillance technology to get the flock out of here.
My new bill, the Get the Flock Out of Our Communities Act, is the only bill in Congress designed to completely prohibit the use of automated mass surveillance technology, including biometric surveillance systems and facial recognition technology.

Flock cameras do not make us safer. My bill would prevent our government on all levels from selling us out to Big Tech companies that trample our civil rights for profit.

Trump is grossly abusing his power to raid the home of Rep. Omar. He has repeatedly attacked her, Somali Americans, and Minnesotans.
@Ilhan has done nothing to justify a pre-dawn raid ahead of the election. I stand with my sister always.

Book bans threaten our First Amendment rights, silence marginalized voices, and keep young people from seeing themselves in the stories they read.
We must protect our libraries, schools, and public institutions from censorship, which is why I support the Fight Book Bans Act. Everyone should have the freedom to learn and explore through reading.

NABJ proudly recognizes Banned Books Week, an annual campaign led by the American Library Association that celebrates the freedom to read and highlights the implications of censorship efforts in public schools and libraries. Learn more at bannedbooksweek.org

What happened to Bernadette Greene-Placentia should make us all sick to our stomachs.
There is no excuse, no justification, and no place for sexual violence in our society. No woman, congressional candidate, staffer, student–or anyone– should ever be raped or sexually assaulted.
I stand with Bernadette and every survivor.
nitter.siddz.com/DemWomenCaucus/status/…
Bernadette Greene-Placentia, a congressional candidate, was raped while repairing her campaign signs. We are heartbroken for her and are sending her our support during this difficult time. We stand with you.
Time and time again, women are victims of sexual violence, on college campuses, on Capitol Hill, and even while running for office. We must protect women and change the culture that allows this to continue.

The people of Puerto Rico are suffering from water and electricity crises as a result of their status as a U.S. colony. They’re being exploited.
I will always fight against colonialism and demand Puerto Ricans' right to self-determination.
Democracy Now! correspondent Juan Carlos Dávila reports from Puerto Rico as the island grapples with a severe water crisis. This July was the driest on record in more than 120 years, accompanied by record-breaking heat.

This week, a postal carrier was attacked while simply doing his job. I’m praying for his swift recovery, and my office has reached out to USPS for more information.
Our postal carriers deserve to be safe on their routes. Always.

"Why would you need courage to speak the truth?"
Nobel Peace Prize winner Navi Pillay led the UN commission that found Israel guilty of genocide in Gaza.
Governments must finally follow the commission's recommendations and impose an arms embargo and prosecute all perpetrators.
"The last thing I did is the report on Gaza naming what is happening there as genocide. One of the main reactions to that report [was] paying tribute to me for my courage.. why would you need courage to speak the truth?"

My heart breaks for the 11-year-old who was unintentionally shot by a sibling with an unsecured gun in Detroit.
Guns should always be locked and kept away from kids, but 6.7 million kids live in homes with an unlocked and loaded gun. We can save eight kids every day by safely storing guns.

My Safe Storage Saves Lives Act requires guns to be sold with gun locks because responsibility and safety are crucial for gun ownership.
Michigan’s Health and Human Services distributes free gun locks in efforts to stop this public health crisis.

Free Ya'akub Vijandre! He is a DACA recipient and photojournalist detained by ICE for over a year for speaking out against genocide and for simply liking a social media post.
This is a clear attack on free speech.
With @RepAlGreen, I led 21 of my colleagues to demand his release.
