As we face unprecedented challenges to the rule of law, voting rights, and more from this Administration, I’m honored to have received an A on the @DDAction_’s Stop Corruption Now scorecard! Whether it's supporting legislation like the John Lewis Voting Rights Act to end voter disenfranchisement, conducting congressional oversight at ICE facilities on behalf of our neighbors, or voting to check President Trump’s illegal war in Iran, I’ll continue using every means possible to hold the Trump Administration accountable and demand transparency for our neighbors.

We are prepared for any attempt to subvert our elections.
Every time Donald Trump has tried to interfere with our elections, we've fought back and won in the courts. We will continue to stand up to his reckless and dangerous efforts to undermine our democracy.

How does democracy function when one person can donate $150 million for 1 Senate race? In a state where one of his companies has major facilities?
It’s 3 weeks until Election Day. Wondering how your Members of Congress scored on key anti-corruption & pro-voter reforms? Check out @DDAction_’s recently-released “Stop Corruption Now” scorecard democracydefendersaction.org…

Just in: Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger and a bipartisan group of current and former election officials are urging the U.S. Supreme Court to block a new USPS ballot-mail rule from taking effect for the 2026 midterms.
The amicus brief includes 38 current and former election officials from 10 states, including five other Republican secretaries of state and dozens of local election officials. #gapol

The Lobbying Disclosure Act requires any entity that lobbies the government to file a report to Congress about how much money they spent.
Most Freedom 250 sponsors—including defense contractors with interests before the government—failed to do that.

They're trying to silence Black voters and silence Black representation in Congress. Republicans know they can't win at the polls so they're attacking our voting power. We've fought this before and we'll keep fighting to ensure equal representation and the protection of the Voting Rights Act.
#BREAKING: Gov. Brian Kemp called state lawmakers for a special session on June 17 to reshape how Georgians vote and to redraw the state’s political maps after last month’s U.S. Supreme Court decision gutted a section of the Voting Rights Act prohibiting racial gerrymandering.

Around midnight, @BankingGOP unveiled new crypto legislation.
Among other flaws, it will turbocharge the massive conflict of interests posed by Donald Trump and his family's crypto ventures.
No bill should move through the Banking Committee without real ethics guardrails.

Protecting the right to vote is about protecting the foundation of our democracy.
I'm fighting to protect fair representation, and ensure every American has an equal voice at the ballot box.
