The Trump Administration is attacking your right to breathe clean air. The science is clear. Climate change is an existential threat to our species. Limiting our ability to regulate pollution serves only to doom the only planet we have to pass on to our children.

CNN headline that says Trump delivers a deadly blow to EPA’s ability to regulate climate pollution
The president is overruling science to eliminate measures that protect us from pollution and environmental damage, mainly to benefit multinational corporations that have thrown money at his campaign, ballroom, and family.
It's simple corruption, and it will cost American lives and livelihoods.

Three days ago, I opposed a funding bill for the Department of Homeland Security because it did not put an end to ICE’s lawlessness.
People have asked what can be done in the wake of the murders of Renee Good and Alex Pretti. Congress has the power of the purse. We must use it.
