In Their Words
What they have said, on the record
“Tenants, landlords, and public housing authorities all rely on HUD’s implementation notice to ensure a smooth continuation of housing assistance payments”
“As a Navy veteran, the first in my family to graduate from college, and someone who has spent my life serving others, I didn't run for Congress to stay quiet. It's why I have called out Trump's ICE gestapo, called out MAGA extremism, fought for working families, and fought for affordable healthcare, and it's why I'm not backing down now.”
“Something we can all agree on—we need to reform our immigration system. To me, that means protecting pathways to citizenship that do not take 15 plus years. Immigrants make a positive contribution to our economy. If someone comes here legally, follows all the laws, and wants to be a citizen, they deserve a chance. Additionally, we must protect DACA recipients, TPS, and asylum seekers.”
“Affordability, healthcare, and reining in ICE are the top three priorities I hear from our community. Every single day, I hear the same things: costs for groceries, medicine, gas, and housing are skyrocketing. Simultaneously, the Republican government is slashing healthcare for seniors and bankrolling ICE's harassment in my district.”
