Former attorneys general
The allegations in the House Republican report are unfounded, and Vice President Vance's referral is a political stunt from an administration that uses the machinery of government to target its perceived opponents while extending leniency…
This ruling makes clear that the federal government cannot impose unlawful financial barriers that make it harder to recruit the teachers, doctors, researchers, nurses, and other essential workers Marylanders rely on every day.
I'll keep fighting to protect them and our immigrant communities.
We won our case against the Trump administration for trying to destroy the H-1B visa program.
Today's victory protects the integrity of the H-1B visa program as a tool to address severe labor shortages in vital industries like education, healthcare, and medical research.
I will continue standing up to Trump, and will protect our democracy and Coloradans’ rights, including abortion access.
I will protect our marginalized and vulnerable communities – as I have done as district attorney.
I support using the full authority of the office to challenge illegal federal actions, whether they undermine voting rights, birthright citizenship, consumer protections, or public safety.
Without a doubt, human trafficking is modern day slavery.
This illegal tax threatened our rural school districts, our growing semiconductor industry, and Arizona’s entire economy.
We must pass a stronger assault weapons ban to reign in these weapons that have been used for mass murder in our state and across the nation.

It’s a horrible decision. It undermines the voting power of black and brown communities all across this country, including in Washington state. It really flies in the face of 40 years of precedent.
When we have a substantial change in the underlying case law that the original decisions were based on we think it’s important that the court follow the current standard and the current precedent.
We are never backing down. November, here we come.
The people of the great state of California, in the greatest nation on earth, have spoken — loudly and proudly,
We are never backing down. November, here we come.
California, we’re just getting started. Let’s hit the ground running. Let’s go win this thing.
This is gambling, no matter how they try to dress it up — and that means it belongs under state jurisdiction.
These contracts are plainly unlicensed illegal gambling under time-worn state law, and we will aggressively defend Connecticut’s commonsense consumer protection laws.
Regularly makes the improbable seem inevitable.
