We shouldn’t keep footing a bill that gets bigger every year.

No agency on Earth could fail eight audits and still get a $1.5 trillion check, except the Pentagon.

For me, it’s literally going to decide if or when I can start my own family, and I know that’s true for many others.

It's going to take a lot of work for us to create a society where the domestic work is really shared equally between women and men.

And that was a strategic mistake because when U.S. arms fall into the wrong hands, when militaries that we’re training, or are seen as assisting, commit abuses, that actually hurts our own interests and relationships with local populations.

The fact of the matter is, we should have the same standards across the board, and we should have clear indicators to measure them and help countries see that they can get more things if they improve their governance.

In many cases, if you’re just supporting the military without doing the rest of the governance approach, you’re actually setting the conditions that make a coup more likely, not the opposite.

This is about protecting the use of taxpayer dollars and making sure the United States isn’t funding abuse.

Security partners with well-governed security sectors are more effective, more reliable, better positioned to absorb and protect United States-origin defense articles from misuse or illicit transfer, and conduct military operations in a…

We weren’t being hysterical. We knew this would happen.

When Republicans passed the Big Ugly Bill and cut funding for healthcare, they literally signed away millions of Americans’ ability to afford health insurance. And now it’s happening.

Children will live with the consequences of today’s decisions longer than the rest of us, and yet they’re usually left out of the rooms where these decisions are made," said Congresswoman Jacobs.

Instead of righting wrongs and making amends to our LGBTQ+ service members and veterans who’ve suffered injustices for decades, I’m ashamed that the Trump Administration has doubled down: kicking trans folks out of the military and banning…

It’s disappointing but not surprising that ICE won’t admit the truth – that they’re not targeting ‘the worst of the worst,’ and are instead attempting to eliminate all forms of legal immigration.

Mr. Johnson had put his personal beliefs over the needs of service members, and that she was disappointed that the president had failed to do anything to change the speaker’s position.

Look, I think there’s a lot of misunderstanding on both sides of the aisle. I spend a lot of time educating my colleagues. A lot of people just are not familiar with this. But let’s be clear, what Nancy Mace is doing is not about…

And let me be clear, I think everyone should have access to the gender-affirming care that they need, and I think that we should respect everybody in this country.

I would just like to point out that I think it’s very interesting that my colleague from South Carolina is so obsessed with the issue of trans people, using horrible slurs about them, when many people in this body have received…

Republicans can’t decide if they hate people who are getting support, who aren’t working more, or if they want mothers to stay home more.

It’s too expensive to provide childcare that’s both high quality and affordable for families, while paying providers a living wage.

The whole Republican narrative is that we have a scarcity of resources. But it’s not actually true.

The GOP budget bill cements and worsens income inequality and keeps people trapped in poverty or on the edges of poverty.

I think of it as taxing trust-fund kids to create a trust fund for all American kids.

They are trying to scare us, but we will not be scared away.
