Review the numerous deaths of people in ICE Custody

I write with urgency and profound alarm regarding the escalating number of deaths occurring in the custody of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. The most recent and deeply disturbing case—the death of Geraldo Lunas Campos—must be treated as a turning point that compels immediate and decisive

End this needless, pointless war now

This Republican administration’s illegal war in Iran must be ended. It should have never have begun. We are engaging in a proxy war on behalf of Israel with no end in sight. We are spending $1 billion per day to accomplish what? Have we truly learned nothing from our wars in Afghanistan and Iraq?

Call out fascist ruling against protestors

I’m incredibly disturbed by the ruling out of Texas regarding protestors being charged as terrorists yesterday. Their charges as being part of ‘antifa’ are as spurious as being charged for being a feminist or Marxist. While the protest did in fact get violent, it was clear from even the judge’s eyes

You have flipped on the filibuster to appease Trump on the SAVE America Act. This is a spineless capitulation. Where will it end?

WHY DOES THE GOP NOT ACKNOWLEDGE THE CRAZY WE ALL SEE?

Trump lifted sanctions on Russian oil sales. Estimates are that Russia has reaped $6B of benefit from the Iran war since it began just two weeks ago. That’s about $400M a day from the increase in oil prices and the easing of sanctions. Or $6B in two weeks. The heads of the G7 had urged Trump not

The secretary of defense has declared “no quarter” -a war crime. The criminal in the Oval Office says it’s an “honor” to kill people as president. Meanwhile Russia is cashing in from lifted sanctions while we spend a billion dollars a day on this war of choice and American soldiers are killed. What

Congress Must Act on Hegseth’s “No Quarter” War Crime Statement

We have already seen what incompetence does to the economy and to human rights. Now the country is seeing what that same incompetence looks like in war. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s declaration of “no quarter, no mercy” invokes language that international law treats as a war crime because it si

DHS FUNDING

Stop holding the American public and TSA agents hostage to satisfy Republican insistence that Democrats abandon their demands to reform ICE. It is easy, practical and reasonable to fund TSA now. Stop creating a problem when a solution is so readily available.

Release the Epstein Files. Enforce the Law. Deliver Justice Now.

The American people are still waiting for the truth about Jeffrey Epstein. In November 2025, Congress passed the Epstein Files Transparency Act by overwhelming bipartisan margins — a voice vote in the Senate and 427–1 in the House — and it was signed into law on November 19, 2025. That law required

There is a human rights disaster going on in Texas, right under your nose. I hope you will do everything in your power to get the El Gamal family released from the Dilley concentration camp immediately. They have been illegally, unconstitutionally detained there for NINE MONTHS! It is nothing short

Get the El Gamal family OUT of Dilley! The mother and 5 children have been illegally, unconstitutionally detained for 9 MONTHS in that hideous concentration camp. Their human rights are violated continuously. The place is a torture camp. Get them released to their friends and neighbors in Colorado a

The needless Iran war is a waste of money, time, and, American lives

This Republican administration’s war in Iran started without a clear rationale, a plan, or approval from Congress. It has no rational, clearly-stated goal, and no coherent endgame in sight. So far, the administration has removed Ayatollah Khomeini and replaced him with a younger, more fanatical Aya

From a verified voter in Austin, TX

Senator Cornyn, while it’s good you asked questions about the SAVE Act, the fact that you already didn’t know much about it is sad and illuminating. It’s also sad you seem so willing to just do what Trump wants and not what is best for your constituents in Texas. By the way Texas already requires ID

Grow a spine and condemn Anti-Muslim Rhetoric! It's DISGUSTING!

I’m horrified at the anti-Muslim rhetoric coming from Republican members right now. Senator Tuberville’s post yesterday was vile, but it’s not the first one like it. Rep. Andy Ogles and Rep. Randy Fine have also said terrible, vicious things about Muslims recently. These hateful words will lead to v

I am demanding an immediate, public investigation into the death of Nurul Amin Shah Alam after actions taken by federal immigration authorities. According to reports, Mr. A

He doesn’t know the first thing about governing. He says he “doesn’t know” about the bombing of the girls school in Iran. But he’s right about everything? More Americans are dying at home and abroad because of this man. He’s a convicted felon, adjudicated rapist and sexual predator. Quite likely a

End Iran War, Hold Our Leaders Accountable

We do not consider rules of engagement designed to minimize civilian casualties to be “stupid,“ as Pete Hegseth has said. We do not support a war in which, 175 children are killed with impunity, likely because the administration has removed humane restrictions that would guard against such things.

Demand for Full Accountability and Immediate Investigation into Epstein Files

I am writing to express my absolute outrage regarding the Department of Justice’s ongoing failure to comply with the Epstein Files Transparency Act. It is now March 2026—months past the December deadline—and we are still discovering that the DOJ "mistakenly" withheld critical FBI memos containing di

Trump’s illegal war against Iran cost American taxpayers more than $11.3 billion just in its first six days. As the conflict approaches the two-week mark, analysts have dug into what this $11.3 billion could have paid for instead. That includes: Medicaid coverage for about 1.53 million people for o

Republicans Cut SNAP While the Pentagon Blew $93B on Steak, Lobster

The Pentagon spent $93.4 billion in a single month under Pete Hegseth’s watch. That September spending binge set every federal agency record since at least 2008 and included $6.9 million on lobster tail, $2 million on king crab, and $15.1 million on ribeye steak.

I'm furious Republicans force federal workers to continue to work without pay

I understand that Democrats sought unanimous consent to pass separate bills reopening TSA, CISA, the Coast Guard and FEMA yesterday. Republicans blocked all of them. I am furious. How dare Republicans force federal workers to continue to work without pay while simultaneously refusing to negotiate on

Stop ICE Operations Targeting Unaccompanied Immigrant Children

I need you to stop the Unaccompanied Alien Children Joint Initiative Field Implementation immediately. This program is not protecting children. It's terrorizing them and separating families.

Why is this Republican administration fighting to keep the Epstein files secret?

I am writing again to clarify how this Republican administration’s costly, illegal war in Iran will not distract the American people from the Jeffrey Epstein child prostitution files. Why is this administration fighting so hard to keep the Epstein files secret? In other countries, business leaders,
