I sincerely appreciate your leadership on trying to uplift some of the struggling issues regarding the Community Reinvestment Act.

Hate has been weaponized against so many communities: my own community, Hispanic, Muslim, and immigrant communities.

YouTube shouldn't flight ads and allow neo-Nazis to make money on this content.

There should be a delay on this content, and they should use AI to prevent this kind of thing from getting out there.

Anti-Semitism thrives--and it used to be, if you were a white supremacist, you had to go to a compound in Idaho to find a rally.

I think social media has really, today, become almost a breeding ground of bigotry.

We're not a country that's divided; we're a country that's disconnected, and we need to connect in understanding all of us as fellow human beings.

I'm really fearful we're going to find out much too late about what's happening there.

I said, well, I am not in the business and we shouldn't be in the business of fixing for-profit technology industries, you know, these new, you know, they call them tools.

Well, I am really proud to be co-leading with Congresswoman Pressley, as well as Congresswoman Yvette Clarke, and leading No Biometric Barriers to Housing Act, which would prohibit any--you know, completely ban facial recognition…

I am really worried that they are testing my people, my residents are being used as testing ground for this kind of technology.

It takes away people's kind of human dignity when you are being policed and surveillanced in that way.

They are for-profit technology that are coming into communities like mine that is overwhelmingly majority black and testing these products.

I don't think being poor or being working class means somehow that you deserve less civil liberties or less privacy.

I will use that word--illegally designate these census tracts that do not meet poverty guidelines.

I have two in my district. They chose two census tracts, which are the wealthiest in my district.

Would you agree that the concerns of the Opportunity Zones program could exacerbate the disappearance of affordable housing and fuel gentrification?

It is a straight-up capital gains tax break.
