I am closely monitoring the ICE raids that are currently happening across Los Angeles, including at a Korean American-owned store in my district. LA has long been a safe haven for immigrants. Trump claims he’s targeting criminals, but he’s really just tearing families apart and destabilizing entire communities.

Trump’s message to Americans on their number one concern? STFU. Must be nice to have daddy’s money.

Can a reporter please ask Senator Thune why it's a "nonstarter" to extend government funding AND the ACA enhanced tax credits at the current levels so we can open the government and ensure Americans' health care premiums don't double? Thanks!
Thune says the new Dem offer is a “nonstarter” but called it a sign of “progress” that they backed off their original offer from several weeks ago. But reiterates it still doesn’t “get anywhere close to what we need to do here.”
It’s day 38 of Trump and Republicans’ government shutdown, let’s check in on the President of the United States:

I'm grateful that hungry Californians are finally receiving their food assistance. It shouldn't have taken this long—and Trump is STILL fighting in court to cruelly withhold SNAP. Democrats & I will keep fighting to ensure Americans are fed during the shutdown.

Nearly a year after the devastating fires, families in LA are still struggling to recover.   At a time when our community needs answers about the fires, Southern California Edison backed out of a town hall in Altadena with KBLA Talk 1580.   We demand transparency, not silence.
Edison pulled out — leaving Altadena families still seeking answers. Our community deserves transparency, not silence. Contact SCE CEO Pedro Pizarro: pedro.pizarro@sce.com 626.302.2255 (Press #1) Join us Nov 6, 4–6 PM at Victory Bible Church in Pasadena.

Trump has claimed over and over that he's going after "criminals." Then why is ICE setting its sights on CHILDREN?? I'll be reintroducing my bill, the Children's Safe Welcome Act, to ensure immigrant children are treated with care and dignity.
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement plans to establish a "National Call Center" in Nashville, Tennessee, to help law enforcement track unaccompanied migrant children for potential removal, according to an agency contracting document. Read more: abcnews.link/2jEOBeM

ICE and CBP are terrorizing our communities. What kind of "immigration enforcement" requires deploying tear gas in the vicinity of a playground where 2-year-old children are playing??
“Mommy! Mommy! Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!” That was a 2-year-old girl's reaction when she was hit with tear gas deployed by nearby immigration agents as she played in a Chicago park. Her mother details their story to @NBCNews nbcnews.com/news/us-news/chi…

This is Trump's America: preschool students left terrified after their teacher was dragged out of her classroom by Trump's armed, masked goons. We must pass the Protecting Sensitive Locations Act to keep ICE out of our schools.
ICE isn’t going after the worst of the worst. This morning, they took a preschool teacher without a warrant IN FRONT OF CHILDREN in my district. #ice #chicago
I visited the Supreme Court to support the small business owners standing up to Trump and his reckless tariffs in court. American voters and the Senate have rejected these illegal Temper Tariffs—it’s time the Supreme Court does the same.
Trump can’t even check on someone collapsing in the Oval Office right in front of him.   What makes you think he would give a damn about your health care?
incredible photo that's definitely worth at least 1,000 words from Andrew Harnik of Getty
Thank you, @SpeakerPelosi. For your leadership, mentorship, and commitment to the American people. You didn’t just shatter ceilings—you wielded the gavel to improve lives, securing passage of the Affordable Care Act, Inflation Reduction Act, and other landmark legislation. You are an icon. Those stilettos will be hard to fill!

Two days ago, the Trump Administration said it would comply with two court orders and release SNAP emergency funds. Now, he's contradicting his own Administration. Is Trump depriving hungry people of food assistance? Americans need their SNAP benefits and we need answers.

So you’re admitting there’s a “pro-Hitler” wing of the Republican Party?

While Democrats are fighting for our communities, Trump just broke his own record for the longest government shutdown.   Americans are suffering with rising food and health care costs.   Republicans must end the shutdown.

O'DONNELL: Why did you pardon Changpeng Zhao? TRUMP: Are you ready? I don't know who he is O'DONNELL: His crypto exchange Binance helped facilitate a $2b purchase of World Liberty Financial's stablecoin. And they you pardoned him. TRUMP: Here's the thing -- I know nothing about it
