I called it a clown show because that’s what it is.
It’s appalling to watch Republicans turn an investigation into child sex abuse and trafficking into a political stunt.
Chairman Comer and House Republicans are complicit in the most egregious coverup in American history.
This Veterans Day, we honor all who have served in our nation’s armed forces. We owe our veterans more than gratitude—we owe them a commitment to the healthcare, benefits, and support they deserve.
In Congress, I’m fighting to expand VA care, housing, and mental health support, and to stop the deportation of veterans carried out by Donald Trump. I’m grateful to my Veterans Advisory Board for their guidance in ensuring that we take care of those who defended us.
Trump is a pathological liar. Just days ago, he appointed Stephen Miller, the architect of his cruel mass deportation agenda, as White House Chief of Staff.
When Democrats regain control in January, we’ll focus on delivering real results.
I absolutely support investigating the entire leadership at the Department of War, beginning with Pete Hegseth, who have planned and executed these illegal and disastrous orders. All of them placed our servicemembers in grave danger and resulted in the tragic deaths of 23.
Trump’s illegal war in Iran, the cover up of the Epstein Files, and ICE’s terror across the country. This all happened under Susie Wiles’ watch as White House Chief of Staff.
She should be investigated. We must hold this administration accountable AND pass bold policies to make life more affordable for Americans.
Heading to our first vote series since Democrats won it all in the midterm election. Here’s what’s going on this week in Congress!
I’ll be signing immediately.
New: @RepJasonCrow and @sliccardo launching discharge petition to force a vote on their bill granting Afghanis in the U.S. TPS through 2029.
@DonJBacon, @MaElviraSalazar, @RepJoeWilson, @RepLuttrell and @RepKiley co-sponsoring this bill, so look for this to be successful.
The women and children who are currently housed at Camp As Sayliyah (CAS) in Doha, Qatar deserve access to medical care, education, and safe living conditions. That’s why @RepDonBacon and I led a bipartisan group of our colleagues calling for urgent answers and accountability from the @StateDept and @DHSgov regarding the conditions and future resettlement plans for Afghan allies.
Since April, I’ve led the push to impeach Pete Hegseth. Here’s why every member should vote this week to hold him accountable.
In April, I filed formal Articles of Impeachment against Pete Hegseth for stunning incompetence, recklessness, and corruption. Over a dozen colleagues joined me then and, today, even more members are ready to say: Hegseth must be held accountable. Let’s get this to the floor and voted on this week.

Proud to be one of the original 13 cosponsors on @yassaminansari's resolution to impeach Pete Hegseth.

Rep. Yassamin Ansari: One tool that we have is to hold people in criminal contempt of Congress, and that is no joke... There is no reason why people cannot and should not and will not eventually go to jail for the crimes that they are committing.
