Oversight Dems

Fighting for Accountability and Transparency | Ranking Member @RepRobertGarcia
Meet the Democratic Members of the Oversight Committee who are fighting to hold the Trump Administration accountable, make our government more efficient, and take on corporate greed to lower costs for all Americans. 🧵
I will use every tool at my disposal to stop the riders in the bill text from becoming law, and I commit to reminding my fellow lawmakers across the aisle that D.C. residents deserve the same consideration as their own constituents at every opportunity.
In my career representing DC in Congress, I've rarely seen a DC appropriations bill as unreasonable and patronizing to the 700k+ DC residents as the one released today. Statement: bit.ly/44F1VSd
Since January, President Trump has laid off thousands of hardworking federal employees, including those from the Department of Education and the Department of State. President Trump's mismanagement of the Executive Branch is unacceptable and harmful to the American people.
There's nothing to hide, right? So just release them. #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles
We have all seen the reports that Donald Trump is somehow in the Epstein files and logs. He reversed his commitment to release them and we know he’s hiding something. We need to keep the pressure on and make sure the entirety of the files are released.
Donald Trump lied again, all to protect himself. The grand jury release is a distraction and this is the proof. Release the files now.
JUST IN: The Justice Department's bid to relesae Epstein grand jury info comes with a huge caveat that it will seek to redact not just victim info but other "personal identifying information." storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…
RFK Jr. is a conspiracy theorist who is now risking millions of lives by trying to gut HIV programs and prevention. He must stop targeting these life-saving programs.
Donald Trump and Pam Bondi are trying to distract us from the truth. No Trump-run Department of Justice or grand jury is going to release all the Epstein files. Release the files now.
.@RepThomasMassie and I are on the side of America's children. 10 Republicans and 212 Democrats stand ready tonight to vote for the release of the Epstein files. But Republican leadership is not allowing a vote. They are protecting the rich and powerful.
What the hell is going on with the Epstein case? There is no question that Donald Trump – and now possibly Fox News – are hiding something and are involved in a potential cover-up. We need the Epstein files released immediately.
.@HouseDemocrats demand the truth because the American people deserve the truth. I will continue to join my @OversightDems colleagues in demanding answers.
NEW — House Democrats are demanding answers from Fox News over its edited Trump-Epstein interview. In a letter to Lachlan Murdoch and Suzanne Scott, they accuse the network of misleading the public — and want to know if Trump’s team influenced the changes. cnn.com/2025/07/17/med…
The American people deserve answers and transparency from this Administration. @OversightDems and I are calling for the immediate release of the Epstein files.
Scoop: A top oversight Democrat has sent a letter to Fox Corp chair Lachlan Murdoch and Fox News Media CEO Suzanne Scott demanding answers about Fox’s editing of this Trump interview from June 2024 re: Jeffrey Epstein
I had not seen this Fox News extended interview with Trump from 2024 — where they deliberately edited his Epstein answer — where he won’t commit to releasing the full files because of “phony” stuff in it.
🚨🚨🚨 Did you know that Fox News manipulated Donald Trump's answer about releasing the Epstein files during the presidential campaign? What are Fox and Trump trying to cover up?
BREAKING: FOX News deliberately manipulated Trump's answer on the Epstein Files in an interview last year. He was planning to cover for Epstein from the start. Oversight Dems are demanding answers from FOX executives for their part in this cover-up. Trump must release the files.
No matter how powerful or well connected you are, no one is above the law. @repseancasten and I sent letters questioning whether US Attorneys Ed Martin and Emil Bove’s consistent violations of the law constitute a breach of professional ethics and warrant disciplinary action, up…
When Members of Congress are assaulted and arrested for conducting oversight, you’re seeing unchecked executive power try to bypass the law. Proud to introduce the Congressional Oversight Access Act with @RepMaxwellFrost and @RepDeliaRamirez to protect lawmakers from violence…
