Trump just requested a $1.5 TRILLION military budget.
Last year, he cut $1 trillion from your health care—the largest cut in American history. But magically found $1.5 TRILLION for death and destruction.
This is deranged.

Unapologetic Congresswoman fighting for justice for all. Proudly representing Michigan’s 12th District in the People’s House.
- We had an engaging coffee hour last week at the Westland Public Library. Showing up for our community means more than just words, it’s about taking action and delivering resources. I always have your back and fight for our families in Congress. Thank you to all who attended.
- Juneteenth marks the moment the message of freedom reached the last enslaved Black Americans in Texas. This Juneteenth, let's commit to taking action to pass the Reparations Now Resolution and work towards delivering real justice and equity for our Black neighbors.
00:00 - BREAKING: Our community's resistance and solidarity has forced ICE to abandon its plans to turn a Romulus warehouse into a torture camp. We will remain vigilant to protect our neighbors and keep ICE out of Michigan. We are stronger together than they will ever be.
- ICE and CBP are abducting our neighbors in the middle of the night, locking them in cages, and concealing their location from their families and legal counsel. No family should bear the pain of wondering where their loved ones are. Congress must pass the Find Our Families Act
- Trump and Republicans claimed SNAP cuts wouldn't impact our children. They lied. More than 770,000 children have already lost food assistance. All to fund tax breaks for the wealthy. It's criminal.
- These charges are a pathetic attempt to punish the people of Minneapolis for standing up against ICE's assault on their city. This fascist administration is targeting our First Amendment rights to protest. Where are the DOJ charges for the murders of Renée Good and Alex Pretti?Federal prosecutors in Minnesota have announced criminal charges against 15 people in connection with anti-ICE protests in the Twin Cities. The defendants are accused of “conspiracy to impede or injure federal officers” and of allegedly “violently” impeding immigration
- I am outraged and heartbroken. Precious one-year-old Kohen Wiley was murdered by police. I am holding the family and community in my prayers, and I stand with those demanding justice and accountability. The police violence terrorizing our communities must end.
- Millions are struggling to pay their water bills and face inhumane shutoffs if they fall behind. I was proud to stand with water warriors and @RepDebDingell to share our bill for a permanent federal water assistance program that makes water accessible and affordable for everyone.
- This week, I presented the City of Inkster with $500,000 for the Harvest River Square project. I'm proud to bring funding back to our district that improves our outdoor spaces and creates more opportunities for our community to come together. I'll never stop fighting for our fair
- Leqaa Kordia was locked up by ICE for 368 days for exercising her constitutional right to speak out against genocide. For over a year, she was separated from her family while her health deteriorated. We must continue fighting for justice for every person trapped in ICE detention.
- Trump and Hegseth cancelled a bipartisan 28-year-old tradition to honor fallen servicewomen, and women veterans citing DEI. It's pathetic. I was proud to join @DemWomenCaucus in hosting our own ceremony to honor their contributions and sacrifice.
- Senseless gun violence has plagued our communities for far too long. No parent, sibling, neighbor, or friend should have to deal with the pain of burying their loved one. Congress must pass my Safe Storage Saves Lives Act now.
