Children are literally starving to death in Gaza. The Israeli government is using starvation as a weapon of war and using our taxpayer dollars to do it. This plain cruelty must stop. nbcnews.com/world/middle-e…
Trump wants to evict 1.4 MILLION Americans from their homes. Housing is a human right — and our government needs to start acting like it. apnews.com/article/hud-se…
Trump was wined, dined, & bribed in the UAE — and then promptly sold billions of dollars of weapons to the country without Congressional input. He did this, not because it was in the best interests of the American people, but because it was in the best interests of Donald Trump.
Republicans passed a bill out of committee that weakens Congress’ ability to weigh in when Trump wants to sell drones, bombs, and other weapons to foreign governments. They’re hiding these weapon sales from the public and removing all oversight.
Today I had the honor of meeting with Mahmoud Khalil, who was imprisoned for 104 days just for speaking out against the war in Gaza. We had an important and productive conversation about Trump’s attacks on all immigrants and free speech and how we can keep fighting back.

The National Guard should not be used to conduct any form of immigration enforcement — full stop. cnn.com/2025/07/22/pol…
Great quote from @RepThomasMassie. Agree or disagree on his positions but he’s one of the very few who is willing to vote his values and not bow down to the cult of Donald Trump.

Republicans are shutting down the House Floor because they’re too scared of another vote to release the Epstein Files. What are they hiding?
GOP terrified of what’s in the files. The Big Bad Betrayal Party has scammed Americans again. Corruption, lies and hypocrisy. Release the files. All of them.

Every single Republican who voted for the Big Bad Betrayal turned their backs on their constituents. They may think we aren’t paying attention — but the American people won’t forget this.
When we move people off the streets and into housing, they live healthier lives. As Trump and Republicans try to cut nearly $1 BILLION from housing programs, I’ll keep fighting to invest in real solutions and pass my Housing is a Human Right Act. seattletimes.com/seattle-news/h…
So Republicans are so afraid of answering to why they won't release the Epstein files that they are....shutting down the House???
NEWS — RALPH NORMAN, hardline conservative on the House Rules Committee, says the panel will not report a rule this week for bills, effectively shutting down the house floor. Why? He doesn’t want to vote on Democrats’ Epstein amendments. He says it’s grandstanding.
Denied medical care. Abused by guards. Forced to eat off the ground. Trump’s ICE is treating immigrants as less than human. This must end and there has to be accountability. theguardian.com/us-news/2025/j…
🚨 BREAKING: Trump and Republicans’ Big Bad Betrayal is now projected to add $3.4 TRILLION to the deficit over the next decade. They’re selling your future for billionaire tax cuts
Today, ICE notified Congress of the 13th death in ICE custody this year, the 10th death since Trump came into office. What a tragedy. ICE is out of control. This is what happens when you privatize the incarceration of immigrants to benefit for-profit companies.
Vaccines save lives. RFK Jr. is putting Americans at risk with his dangerous misinformation and conspiracy theories.
Trump and Republicans’ Big Bad Betrayal will impact every single corner of this country — including right here in WA. This is bad for our environment and will kill green jobs. It’s a lose-lose. kuow.org/stories/megabi…
So proud of Seattle for winning a 2025 All-America City Award! From improving sustainability and food access to investing in electrification for our transit, I’m glad our city has leaders committed to making our climate greener and communities healthier. harrell.seattle.gov/2025/07/14/sea…
Trump’s cuts to health research will mean fewer breakthroughs and cures and more dead Americans. He is costing our communities countless lives. nytimes.com/2025/07/18/hea…
