ICYMI: Progressive Caucus rolled out our bold, popular agenda to lower costs, empower workers, strengthen our democracy, and more.

I’m so excited to fight for this slate of progressive and populist ideas that will deliver for poor, working, and middle-class Americans.

Every single person deserves a safe place to sleep with a roof over their head.

That’s why I’m fighting to pass my Housing is a Human Right Act, which will invest $300 billion in crucial housing infrastructure while reducing homelessness across America.

Predatory, for-profit institutions, like the Art Institutes, prey on disadvantaged students striving for a better future.

I’m grateful to President Biden for taking this step to bring justice to thousands of students, including many in my own district. washingtonpost.com/education/2024…

An invasion of Rafah would be catastrophic.

I joined Rep. Pramila Jayapal, Congresswoman Madeleine Dean, and more than 50 of our colleagues to urge the Administration to use all tools possible to dissuade the Israeli government from moving forward with the Rafah offensive.

Republicans keep pushing out the same tired talking points about immigration, demonizing immigrants and insisting on enforcement-only policies that have failed for 30 years.

They have no interest in doing the work necessary to actually fix our immigration system.

On World Press Freedom Day, we recognize how vital reporting and journalism are to democracy.

This year, the US dropped to 55th in RSF in English’s press freedom rankings. This is unacceptable. We must ensure journalists can accurately report without intimidation or interference.

It was great to join my colleagues in CAPAC yesterday to celebrate the start of AANHPI Heritage Month!

As the proud co-chair of CAPAC’s Immigration Task Force, I’ll keep working with my colleagues to fight for comprehensive immigration reform that centers dignity and humanity.

Yesterday’s vote was a political ploy to divide us instead of actually trying to tackle the real problem of antisemitism. Critiques of the Israeli government and policy positions are not antisemitism — Congress must do better to meaningfully engage and combat antisemitism.

An Israeli ground invasion of Rafah would be unconscionable.

That's why I'm joining Rep. Pramila Jayapal, Congresswoman Madeleine Dean and 50+ colleagues urging President Biden to prevent this assault.

Diplomacy & saving lives must be the priority.

Every single American deserves access to clean drinking water. That’s why I’m so thrilled to see more than $28 million from the Infrastructure Law headed to Washington State to replace lead pipes and advance environmental justice. thehill.com/policy/energy-…

Thank you Rep. Pramila Jayapal & Congresswoman Madeleine Dean for your leadership.

Over 1 million Palestinians in Rafah have insufficient access to food, water, medicine and shelter. President Biden must continue to make clear that a military operation into Rafah that endangers innocent lives is unacceptable.

I & Congresswoman Madeleine Dean led 55 members in calling on the admin to prevent an assault on Rafah by any means necessary, including withholding offensive aid to Israel that can be used in an invasion. We must prioritize the safety of innocent Palestinian civilians. reuters.com/world/us-democ…

Really bad thing about this divisive GOP strategy is that it actually hurts efforts to combat antisemitism. We need a whole of government approach to taking on antisemitism, educating people about what it is and what it is not, learning together & de-escalating not escalating.

Along w/ Congresswoman Madeleine Dean & 55 members, I called on the Biden admin to enforce US law & withhold offensive aid to Israel that can be used for a Rafah assault.

We all must keep working to achieve a lasting ceasefire to save lives, return hostages, & build a path toward security for all.
