I spoke with an ICE whistleblower who was instructed to teach agents that they could enter homes without a judicial warrant. The public deserves answers.
This weekend, Trump is trying to rededicate America as a “Christian Nation”. How about we rededicate ourselves back to reality?
250 years ago, our founders created America to be free from religion. And my colleagues in the Freethought Caucus have the receipts.
We all need to be talking about Trump’s proposed $1.5 trillion war budget! At a time when families are paying more to put food on the table, gas in the car, and get the healthcare they deserve, this budget proposal is a giveaway to defense contractors at the expense of the American people.
I’m excited to see the progress made on what will be Madison’s first homeless shelter for men, providing a safe, welcoming, and dignified environment for Madison's most vulnerable.
I was honored to secure $2 million in federal funds to help make this 44,000+ square feet shelter come to life!
Last fall, the Trump administration issued an Orwellian directive called NSPM-7 which would allow them to investigate anyone they deem to be "anti-Christian," "anti-capitalist," or "anti-American," for domestic terrorism. Those are vague and undefined terms, and this directive is a clear effort to silence criticism and dissent by infringing on Americans' freedom of speech.
Today, I offered an amendment to the Commerce, Justice, & Science funding bill to prohibit the Trump administration from targeting any person or organization solely for exercising their constitutionally-protected First Amendment rights. Every Republican in Committee voted no.
Good news is rare in Washington these days, so watching countless beagles being rescued from Ridglan Farms was a welcome change.
I’ll continue working to ensure that what happened at Ridglan never happens again.
I was supposed to volunteer with @dchsgiveshelter & @beaglefreedom to rescue the remaining beagles at Ridglan Farms. However, their attorney told me that I wasn’t welcome on their property.
Last minute, I went to thank the volunteers from both groups for their work. I’ll continue to fight for loving homes for all these dogs and all the remaining dogs until facilities like these no longer exist.
