NEW: Social Security and Medicare are projected to run out of money in just over a decade. Congress must act to protect these vital programs. We can do that by ensuring the richest pay their fair share in taxes. Let’s get this done.

Social Security and Medicare finances look grim as overall debt piles up

Dire new budget projections and high-stakes policy deadlines mean lawmakers may be forced to take up the issue — or face the consequences of inaction.

On Yom HaShoah, we take time to honor the memories of the 6 million Jews killed during the Holocaust & all those who were impacted by these horrific events. Today, as we see antisemitism on the rise, we must remember history, be strong allies, & fight antisemitism in all forms.

On bill after bill, Republicans have continuously embarrassed themselves and proven that they are incapable of governing. They’re too focused on stripping abortion rights, cutting Social Security and Medicare, and playing political games to get anything done.

Our immigration system is broken as is the way we treat immigrants. We must end the use of private detention facilities, repeal mandatory detention, & restore due process. Read this @SeaTimesOpinion piece supporting my Dignity for Detained Immigrants Act.

When Republicans ban abortion and take away our freedoms, pregnancies become more dangerous and individuals can’t access the reproductive care they need. This isn’t the America we want. We must enshrine abortion rights nationwide.

Emergency rooms refused to treat pregnant women, leaving one to miscarry in a lobby restroom

Complaints about pregnant women being turned away from emergency rooms spiked in the months after states began enacting strict abortion laws following the 2022 U.S.

Employers need us to modernize the immigration system to fill job openings. Yet we have so few immigration judges that the asylum backlog has people waiting eight years for a hearing. This is unacceptable. Congress must work toward bipartisan, realistic immigration reform.

In March, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau put a cap on credit card late fees — a move that will save Americans millions of dollars every year. But now, Republicans are fighting to throw out that cap. They’re objectively pro-junk fees.

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.

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.
