  1. "I am writing to voice my strong concern about the recent deaths and illnesses of children detained in Border Patrol custody, and to request a full accounting and a revised protocol to prevent such tragedies from occurring in the future."

  4. During the holiday season, hundreds of thousands of federal workers and their families are now worrying when they'll receive their next paycheck. President Trump should honor his original agreement for a short-term funding bill to relieve their stress and reopen the government.

  5. There are not 60 Senate votes for the $5 billion of wall funding approved by the House. The House should take up the Senate bill, which was passed unanimously.

  6. I thank Secretary Mattis for his lifetime of service to our country, both as a military officer and as the secretary of defense.

  7. Secretary Mattis is a respected leader with a clear-eyed understanding of international affairs. His counsel and steady hand will be sorely missed at a time when the president’s decision making is becoming increasingly erratic.

  8. I’m alarmed by Secretary Mattis’ sudden resignation. His letter makes clear the president’s rash decision to withdraw troops from Syria and reduce our forces in Afghanistan endangers our allies and threatens our own national security.

  9. The Senate unanimously passed legislation to keep the government open. Republican leadership in the House should put the Senate-passed bill on the floor for a vote.

  10. A letter from the Justice Department makes clear that ethics officials told Matthew Whitaker that his comments disparaging Special Counsel Mueller's investigation DO create the appearance of a conflict of interest and he should recuse himself.

  11. The ATF from 2003-2018 said it could not ban bump stocks through regulation. To ensure the ban is implemented and protected from legal challenges, Congress must pass legislation:

  12. Bump stocks allow semi-automatic rifles to fire at an automatic rate of between 400 and 800 rounds per minute. To ensure these deadly devices are banned, Congress must pass a law, not rely on DOJ regulations.

  13. Matthew Whitaker’s reported refusal to follow the recommendation of ethics officials further indicates that he views his role as serving President Trump, not the American people.

  14. In November, I urged Chairman Grassley to hold an oversight hearing so that we could assess whether Matthew Whitaker’s appointment puts the Mueller investigation at risk. Today’s disturbing reports that he disregarded ethics officials creates even more reason for him to appear.

  15. An issue of this significance should be addressed with a formal ethics opinion—not by handpicked political advisers—and the advice of career attorneys should be followed.

  16. Gun groups have already sued to block the ban on bump stocks from taking effect. Congress must pass legislation to ban these dangerous devices. My op-ed:

  17. The Justice Department has been under relentless attack by this president and it needs a leader able to defend the rule of law. The attorney general is charged with protecting the people, not the president. My statement on William Barr's memo:

    Undo
  18. We need answers as to why William Barr proactively drafted a memo against Special Counsel Mueller's investigation. There’s no reason for a lawyer in private practice to do this unless he was attempting to curry favor with President Trump.

  19. President Trump’s drastic cuts to Palestinian aid is forcing the U.N. to end food assistance to more than 190,000 people living in Gaza and the West Bank next year. Starving innocent Palestinian families won’t lead to peace.

  20. The Trump Organization’s pursuit of business abroad creates glaring conflicts of interest, with the president’s foreign policy decisions potentially being influenced by his personal financial interests. Important new report:
