I called for a ceasefire months ago and brought those concerns directly to U.S. intelligence leaders today.
We need to know what is standing in the way of a ceasefire to stop civilian deaths, release hostages, get aid into Gaza and set the stage for a solid two-state solution.

This Holocaust Remembrance Day, we mourn the six million Jewish women, men and children who were killed during one of the darkest periods in human history. As we honor their memories, we must stand against antisemitism and all forms of hatred and bigotry.
It is impossible to picture six million people at once; to read six million names; to know six million stories. This Holocaust Remembrance Day,

As the pastor of a disadvantaged Catholic parish and founder of a gang intervention program, Father Gregory Boyle has helped thousands of individuals turn their lives around. His service reminds us of the power of redemption and rehabilitation.

I've been pushing for years for DACA recipients to be eligible for affordable health care. Today that effort paid off as the admin announced Dreamers will soon be able to enroll in care through the ACA marketplace. A big win towards health care access and justice for Dreamers!
More than 100,000 young immigrants protected by DACA will soon become eligible to receive federal healthcare coverage for the first time since the program was implemented over a decade ago.
I joined my colleagues to call on the admin to prevent an assault on Rafah by holding Israel accountable to US law and principles.
I will continue to call for a ceasefire that brings lasting peace and global stability, protects innocent lives and returns hostages.
Along w/
@RepDean
& 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.
