When those doors opened, what I saw made my heart sink.

It is something everyone, whether you’re Democrat, Republican or anything, should be deeply ashamed of.

What we heard very clear is that ICE is giving them the directions from A to Z.

When I was in that facility, looking at those cages, I saw young men who looked exactly like me.

We saw people, of course, yelling for help.

There was so much ambiguity on under what authority people are being held here, and whether this is a state facility or federal facility.

cruelty was always the point.

Wow. So he votes to gut Medicaid and throw 17 million people off of their healthcare and then dumps his Medicaid related stock to cover his own ass? That's just evil and cruel.

This kind of performative fascist cruelty is not new, or unique to the reign of Donald Trump.

the theme for congressional Republicans in Congress is putting corporations over people. That is exactly what they are doing in this bill. Instead of focusing on supporting our veterans, they have added one of the most reckless giveaways…

there is no liberty in a coffin, and there is no freedom in a funeral. Veterans will die if this passes, and anyone who votes for it should be ashamed of themselves.

I want to be clear, being undocumented is not a crime. My Republican colleagues who say I don't want any undocumented people in this country, I actually agree with you. So let's document every single one of them with a speedy path to…

We can't let politicians like Donald Trump pit us against one another.

9 years ago today, 49 lives were stolen and ripped away from us at Pulse nightclub in my district, in my home of Orlando, Florida, a safe haven for Orlando's LGBTQ+ community that was turned into the site of unimaginable horror and a mass…

I strongly oppose H.R. 884, which would repeal a law duly enacted by the District of Columbia because D.C. should be free to govern its own local matters. Republicans claim that Congress has a constitutional duty to legislate on local D.C…

Mr. Speaker, I think it is interesting because the gentlewoman who just spoke said this is about preserving "our elections." This is not about our elections. It is not about my election. It is not about her election, being from New York…

The reason I ask the gentleman is he brings up a law in Georgia that was written by the elected representatives of the legislature voted into office by the people of Georgia. My Republican colleagues would have us believe that today a lot…

Reclaiming my time. I am curious what body wrote the legislation, voted on the legislation, and sent it to the Governor's desk?

Mr. Speaker, once again, my Republican colleagues want to deflect on this issue focusing on undocumented immigrants. Undocumented immigrants are unlikely to vote in local D.C. elections. Again, why? It is because the D.C. voter roll is…

I think the better thing would be for the gentleman to ask his constituents what they care about. I promise this issue will not be in the top 3 or 10 things that they want us to focus on. At the same time, they are pushing a bill to take…

At least here tonight, the people stealing from Americans are not folks with tattoos and hoodies—it's people wearing suits and ties and congressional pins.

This is to distract from the fact that, at least here tonight, the people stealing from Americans are not folks with tattoos and hoodies. It is people wearing suits, ties, and congressional pins, sitting in this Capitol right now, not in…

I am just curious which Republican couldn't vote for the bill until we completely deregulated silencers. My generation isn't just defined by a bleak financial future. We are also defined as the mass shooting generation. We have done more…

this is a moment I am never going to forget because, tonight, hundreds of Republican Members of Congress are wanting to line up to vote for the biggest transfer of wealth from the working poor and the working class to billionaires and…

These are innocent people who have lawfully built lives here under TPS.
