President Trump is rolling out the red carpet for Xi Jinping while China dumps goods into our markets, fuels the Iranian and Russian war machines, and helps Iran target our troops. Xi should be answering for China’s actions, not getting the red-carpet treatment.

One month ago, catastrophic flooding tore through communities across northern and central Nepal, devastating 1.6 million people. Today I led a bipartisan letter with @RepGraceMeng & @CongressmanRaja urging Trump and DHS Secretary Mullin to immediately grant Temporary Protected Status (TPS) to Nepal. TPS will allow Nepalis already in the U.S. to stay and work here while it's too dangerous to return home. Forcing Nepali families back to a home that no longer exists is cruel. We need to act now.

The floods in Nepal have destroyed homes, left thousands missing, and devastated over 1.6 million people. Alongside, @RepJudyChu, @RepGraceMeng, and @CongressmanRaja, I'm urging the administration to grant TPS to Nepalis so they can stay here while it is unsafe to return home.

The Chinese Communist Party is stealing American technology, hacking our systems, and threatening our security. Trump should be going into these talks focused on protecting American workers and strengthening our position.

The Trump Administration is burying the truth: millions of Epstein-related documents still have not been released, while more than a thousand survivors are still waiting for justice. Congress must keep pressing for the full truth and accountability.

Chinese authorities are reportedly in possession of F-35 components diverted to Hong Kong. That should be a flashing red warning as the Trump Administration pushes ahead with selling F-35s to Saudi Arabia despite U.S. intelligence concerns that China could gain access to sensitive technology. We cannot put the crown jewels of American military technology within reach of the CCP. cnbc.com/2026/09/24/chinaf-f…

Data center deals shouldn’t be hidden from the people they affect. We need to ban NDAs between developers and government officials or agencies. Communities deserve to know the facts, including water and electricity use, infrastructure demands, and taxpayer-funded incentives.

To lower costs for families, we need to start by ending the Trump policies driving them up. End the blanket tariffs, end the illegal and unconstitutional Iran war driving up gas prices, and take on industry consolidation that raises costs while boosting corporate profits.

Congressional Republicans have become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Trump White House. Instead of serving as a check on presidential power, they have increasingly abdicated that responsibility to enable Trump.

I condemn, with every fiber of my being, the threats of and calls for murder from the Libertarian Party of New Hampshire. Every freedom-loving American — Independents, Republicans, Democrats, and, yes, Libertarians — must do the same. Calling for the killing of fellow Americans because you disagree is not liberty. It is absolutely anti-American. You can disagree with someone as deeply as humanly possible. But in the United States of America you cannot call for their killing and go unpunished. I am calling on the New Hampshire Attorney General @NH_DOJ and federal law enforcement to fully investigate these threats and hold anyone who broke the law accountable. Threats of murder like this have no place in New Hampshire or anywhere in America. They must stop. Now.

I've called for Pete Hegseth's resignation because he has shown he is completely incompetent, and his political purge of military leadership is making our country less secure. I believe the votes to impeach him may already be there.

Americans are paying the price at the pump for Trump’s illegal Iran war. As the conflict spreads and oil supplies are disrupted, gas prices are climbing and families are getting squeezed even harder by the rising cost of living. We need to end the war now.

Trump tried to give USPS a new role in determining whether Americans’ mail ballots could be delivered. I fought back through congressional oversight, and the courts have kept that policy blocked ahead of November. But the broader fight to protect access to the ballot continues.

Russia is using AI-generated disinformation to target our elections. Meanwhile, the Trump Administration has cut the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency’s workforce by nearly a third. Those cuts are weakening our defenses against the very threats our intelligence agencies are warning about. nytimes.com/2026/09/18/us/po…

Donald Trump doesn’t want to be held accountable, so he’s barring news organizations from the White House. A free press exists to ask hard questions, expose wrongdoing, and demand answers from those in power. That role is essential to our democracy.

I introduced the bipartisan NO FLOCK Act because officers have used license plate readers to stalk wives and exes, track women seeking abortion care, and aid ICE surveillance. My bill cracks down on these abuses and ensures there are real consequences when these surveillance systems are misused.
