That is why days like today are so important—to give voice to the innocent, begin the process of healing, and make the solemn promise ‘never again.’

Accordingly, we insist that the Postal Service abandon this proposed regulation and return to its core mission of providing universal postal services to every American. The Constitution and federal law demand nothing less.

By directing adjudicators to treat adjustment of status as an 'extraordinary form of relief' and by creating a policy preference for consular processing, the memorandum undermines the very purposes Congress sought to advance.

Sadly, the United States today is making the same mistakes that it did in Rwanda, turning away rather than turning towards.

The Department of Justice must end this corrupt money grab by publicly committing that it will not pursue any other such compensation fund and that it will vigorously defend taxpayers in any January 6-related lawsuits.

And thank you to the Excel Center for their work and commitment to Illinois’ first adult high school. This school was built on a simple but important idea: that it’s never too late to invest in someone’s potential and give them a real…

Now, this President can fire whomever he perceives as his enemy at these agencies without so much as citing cause.

To preserve the right to vote for every eligible American, Congress must take action to protect this precious right, including passing the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act to restore and strengthen the protections of the Voting…

Deploying the military into U.S. cities, especially without the request or consent of elected leaders, is a clear violation of the law by any president.

Putin is at his weakest position in years and real sustained pressure can finally bring this war to a close.

Lindsey was part of every important policy issue and an indispensable player in every Senate ‘gang’.

On a bipartisan and bicameral basis, Congress is prepared to help President Trump apply the necessary pressure on Putin to get him to the negotiating table and end the killing once and for all.

According to reporting, approximately 600 January 6 rioters have filed claims under the Federal Tort Claims Act (FTCA), expecting to receive millions of dollars in compensation for alleged injuries they sustained because they were…

Unfortunately, President Trump’s contribution to this anniversary has been to repair the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool ‘American flag blue’—through a no-bid contract to a clearly unqualified firm.

Although a federal judge has enjoined the slush fund, there are other plans to undermine the American justice system to pay out January 6 rioters, including those convicted of assaulting law enforcement officers.

That is not the rule of law. That is weaponization. That is corruption not behind closed doors. And it is precisely what the Founders feared when they built this republic.

The question on this anniversary is whether we have the wisdom and the courage to keep it. I hope today’s hearing rises to that challenge.

This administration’s sweeping mandatory detention policy is so lawless.

A legitimate civil detention purpose requires some relationship between confinement and an actual need, such as flight risk, danger, or the lawful execution of removal.

Congress and the public are entitled to know whether these facilities are safe, whether medical care is adequate, whether contractors are meeting their obligations, and whether DHS is taking meaningful action when people die on its watch.

Pride Month is a time to celebrate and remember all the activists and trailblazers who have fought for LGBTQ+ rights and the progress we have made.

“Pride Month is a time to celebrate and remember all the activists and trailblazers who have fought for LGBTQ+ rights and the progress we have made. But the fight is far from over. I'm proud to reaffirm my commitment to protecting the…

Your Administration either failed to account for this predictable result or proceeded despite it.
