There is no middle ground, no matter your family ties, no matter the decades you've lived and worked in the United States.

I have a resolution, Roadmap to Freedom resolution, that calls for us to adopt a compliance-based approach.

The misguided implementation of the title 42 public health law to circumvent existing immigration law was part of that strategy.

You were handed a broken system further decimated by the Trump Administration.

I am a legal immigrant, and I have no problem with the fact that we need to reform our immigration laws.

Our colleagues have no interest in getting such a system because it is actually too useful for Republicans to not have a functioning system.

What we need is a humane and just immigration system with legal ways for people to come.

The horrific Trump separation of at least 5,500 children from their parents, a trauma which they will likely never recover from.

I am not a fan of the ballooning Department of Defense budget. I think there is a lot of waste, fraud, and abuse.

I wish we were spending more within this budget on addressing climate change as a national security threat.

If we get it across, we are going to do everything we can to get it across, I just hope you use it to investigate some of the profiteering practices of these private insurance companies.

I find it odd that my colleagues across the aisle would resist mask wearing, or vaccinations, and yet you want to use a public health title, Title 42 is a public health title to keep immigrants out of the country.

Thank you for your work on fixing the family glitch, which is going to lower costs for American people.

I need to express my deep concern with the 4 percent increase in defense spending.

America has a monopoly crisis that is strangling small businesses and hurting people's pocketbooks.

I am a lead sponsor of the Ultra-Millionaire Tax Act.

I would just argue that Medicare for All would actually allow people to make choices...

Researchers have found that Medicare for All will save over 68,000 lives per year.

My Medicare for All act would provide healthcare to everyone in the United States without the financial, racial, or demographic barriers that exist in our current system.

Congresswoman Cori Bush, Ayanna Pressley, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and Rashida Tlaib...have been some of the most powerful voices in Congress for an America where healthcare is a human right.

Democrats will continue working tirelessly to ensure that no person's financial circumstances keep them from obtaining quality healthcare.

I have proudly supported Medicare for All since it was first introduced in Congress nearly two decades ago, and I will continue to push for this vision of the American healthcare system.

Medicare for All, a comprehensive proposal to transition our healthcare system to a national single-payer model, offers a bold vision for an America where no patient is denied necessary medical care because it is too expensive.

The work that allows all other work to happen. And it is also why it is important that we keep those investments that we have proposed in Build Back Better for elder care, for childcare, for all of this kind of work.

Supporting the domestic work force crucial to ensuring that women can thrive in a post-pandemic economy.
