    President Trump & GOP don’t care about the working families that serve our nation everyday. A shutdown means struggling to afford rent, pay your bills or buy that last Christmas gift. Trump should reopen the government immediately. Appreciate opportunity to join

    Trump wanted a shutdown. Republicans gave him one. Days before Christmas, hundreds of thousands of workers will be furloughed without pay. Vital services that children, seniors, veterans & our economy depend on will be crippled. Trump prefers chaos & crisis. America does not

    A partial government shutdown is assured at midnight. The House has adjourned without a spending deal.

    You own the shutdown—your own words, . The Senate UNANIMOUSLY passed a bipartisan solution to avoid a shutdown. Then you threw another temper tantrum and convinced the House to ignore that compromise.

    Looking forward to joining you in a few mins on a very chaotic day in Washington. The Trump Administration is in crisis, emboldening our foes and forcing a government shutdown on the American people

    I proudly represent tens of thousands of federal employees - scientists, food inspectors, park rangers & customs agents. They’ll feel the impact of the shutdown when they decide what last minute gift to buy, what to serve for Christmas dinner or wonder how they’ll pay the bills

    Tonight, I asked Scott Perry (R-Pa.) about effect of fed employees being furloughed. He argued it had no real impact since employees eventually get paid back. "Who’s living that they’re not going to make it to the next paycheck?"

    President Trump and Congressional Republicans have no plan to keep the government open. They will furlough hundreds of thousands of workers right before Christmas in blind pursuit of Trump’s vanity project

    The Republican-led House has approved funding for President Donald Trump's border wall. The bill now goes to the Senate, where it has almost no chance of passing, pushing the government closer to a partial government shutdown.

    Mattis resignation is extremely troubling. We should all be worried now.

    SPECIFIC ISSUES Mattis outlines in his letter: - importance of NATO -Treatment of US allies -US leadership in the defeat-ISIS coalition - Viewing China and Russia as ADVERSARIES, not allies These are all key ways in which he has broken with Trump.

    Trump is proud to shut down the government before Christmas, denying pay to hundreds of thousands of working families and disrupting our economy. This isn't governance, this isn't fighting for Americans. This is a childish temper tantrum.

    Paul Ryan says Trump “won’t sign this bill,” referring to a Senate-passed stop-gap spending bill to avoid a shutdown by Friday. Shutdown now appears far more likely. Trump had signaled to Hill earlier he would sign

    The First Step Act is just that -- a first step. I'm supporting this bill as an incremental start down the path to true criminal justice reform. We will continue to make bipartisan progress on reducing recidivism and racial bias, to help our fellow Americans get a fresh start.

    The passage of the First Step Act, which aims to overhaul federal prisons and reduce recidivism, by the Senate is a significant victory for advocates on the left and the right.

    For two years, Trump hasn’t laid out a coherent strategy in Syria. He hasn’t come to Congress for the authority to engage in sustained use of force. We need aswers. What have we actually achieved and why are we rushing for the exits, giving Russia a win?

    Breaking News: President Trump is considering pulling America’s 2,000 troops out of Syria after a 4-year fight against ISIS. Pentagon officials oppose the move.

    Unilaterally withdrawing US forces and abandoning our partners before we have fully defeated ISIS is a mistake. By prematurely declaring ‘mission accomplished’ Trump imperils our national security. We haven’t won the fight against ISIS, nor have we achieved peace in Syria

    We have defeated ISIS in Syria, my only reason for being there during the Trump Presidency.

    This is a huge victory for asylum seekers and a welcome win for those of us trying to protect American values from Trump’s onslaught. Our nation will always be a home for those yearning to breathe free.

    BREAKING: A federal court permanently struck down a Trump administration policy gutting asylum protections for immigrants fleeing domestic violence and gang brutality. This ruling is another defeat for the Trump administration’s all-out assault on the rights of asylum seekers.

    The situation on the border is absolutely a moral crisis. Family separation is abhorrent, and this summer I saw firsthand how inhumane the detention centers are. That's why I will be reintroducing the Alternatives to Detention Act -- to keep families together, out of detention.
