  1. . finally did something ALL Americans want by signing the CAA Reform Act & ending the days of taxpayers footing the bill for Members of Congress harassing staff. Next year, & I will pass the rest of the Congress Act including all forms of discrimination!

    Truly alarming that withdrew from Syria at Erdogan’s request. We cannot have a President who is so erratic that he heeds the slick talk of a so-called ally over the advice of his distinguished military adviser and Secretary of Defense.

    SHAMEFUL! ’ EPA cares more about saving polluters money than protecting pregnant mothers and children from toxic mercury poisoning. As a mother and a Member of Congress, you can bet that I won’t take this sitting down!

    This is a shocking display of ignorance and discrimination. HIV-positive servicemembers must not be prevented from deploying based on outdated misconceptions. Servicemembers' ability to serve should be evaluated based on objective standards, NOT biases.

    Despite 's attempts to pervert our asylum system, this ruling means that America can finally go back to honoring the inscription on the Statue of Liberty and stop turning its back on women and children fleeing deadly domestic and gang violence.

    reports: Anyone still doubt veracity of Russia’s well-orchestrated influence campaign? $25 mil budget, reached 126 mil FB and 20 mil Insta users. Laser-focus: undercut US elections, drive wedges between groups, use open society as a weapon, cast doubt on democracy.

    .'s years of perpetrating a "a shocking pattern of illegality” at the Trump Foundation finally caught up w/ him. I think there’s an echo of that shocking pattern of illegality at Trump properties in New York, Panama, & Canada.

    6 yrs after , the unthinkable is so common that children practice hiding from shooters at school. Each time we fail to reject the NRA’s blood money/lies, we load the gun that’s used in the next shooting. For the kids who lost their futures, we must pass gun safety laws!

    It’s w/a heavy heart that I recognize the life & spirit of Justice William Newsom. I was lucky to know Bill, a passionate Dem, environmentalist & Irish rogue. He was beloved by many. My thoughts & prayers are w/Governor-elect Gavin Newsom, Hillary Newsom Callan & their families.

    How can the "great deal maker" negotiate with Congress if he is playing golf in Florida? I guess a CODEL will be necessary. Stay at Camp David and stop lining your pockets with taxpayers' money at Mar-a-Lago.

    I get it, is the Grinch that stole Christmas for seniors and the disabled as he golfs at Mar-a-Lago for 16 sun-filled days. And he calls Tillerson lazy? BREAKING: Trump plans 16-day holiday visit to Mar-a-Lago

    Today we passed by unanimous consent the CAA Reform Act to hold Members of Congress personally liable for sexual harassment & retaliation. This is how Congress is supposed to work - across the aisle to get the job done! ⁦⁩ ⁦⁩ ⁦

    Proud to join & in passing a UC to hold Members financially responsible for sexual harassment and retaliation. This is a historic moment, & we’ll make history again next year when we expand it to include discrimination! We won’t go back!

    ., try spending the $1.6B you already HAVE before throwing a tantrum on TV over a "wall" that divides your party & doesn’t reflect real security needs. Forcing a over funds not being spent at the rate Congress appropriates isn't just reckless, it's deranged.
