    If we're only ever on defense, we're losing. It’s time to fight for reproductive rights, and fight to win.

    Corruption is everywhere in Washington, whether we're talking about money in politics or closed-door negotiations where our rights get thrown to the wayside. Our next president needs to be brave enough to take it on.

    On the other side of these fences at were big white tents. That's where they're keeping these children: in tents, behind solid fences. These detention centers are like prisons, and the trauma happening within their walls—in this administration's hands—is inexcusable.

    Today, w/ we requested entry into the child detention center. By law, as a sitting Congressmember, I should be let in. While I regularly request entry, I’m often denied. What are they hiding?

    I will keep fighting for comprehensive immigration reform with a pathway to citizenship. And it's absurd that I even have to say this, but I will: I would not divert border security funds into for-profit prisons to lock up children and asylum seekers.
