Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib

Unapologetic Congresswoman fighting for justice for all. Proudly representing Michigan’s 12th District in the People’s House.

We are in a climate crisis—and AI Data centers are making it worse. Even if one hasn't popped up in your community yet, polluted air and dirty water affects us all.

Congress must pass my No AI Data Centers on Federal Lands Act, now!

[Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib @RepRashida]

Our tax dollars should be used here to build new schools, invest in clean air and water, and provide healthcare to all.

Nobody wants to finance Trump’s endless wars, pay to bomb schools and hospitals abroad, or build a ballroom that no one has asked for.

[Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib @RepRashida]

I stand in solidarity with the PanAmerican Congress gathering today in Uruguay. With authoritarianism on the rise across the Americas—fueled by Trump's renewed Monroe Doctrine—we must build strong bonds between our peoples to fight for freedom, sovereignty, and justice.

I'm proud to have secured $1.2 million for Dearborn Public School’s Community Career Center and Green Schoolyards Project.

This funding creates career opportunities in automotive tech and new outdoor learning spaces for students.

Our children are deserving of these investments.

[Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib @RepRashida]

Same Department of War that’s failed 8 audits in a row, btw.

This is disgusting. Our servicemembers deserve better.

🚨EXCLUSIVE: Military families and service members are now describing horrific conditions across MULTIPLE ships: human waste flooding bathrooms, virtually no food, water or soap, months without port calls, exhausted crews, and no end in sight.

This crisis appears to be far bigger than just the USS Abraham Lincoln. https://t.co/FVal1ePgO0

UPDATE: Trump is deleting all the terrible experiences with loan sharks, big banks, and debt collectors submitted by consumers that is supposed to be made public.

Once again, Trump is dismantling consumer protection and putting corporations over people—all because Russell thinks he works for the President.

[Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib @RepRashida]

Russell Vought, author of Project 2025 and all the budget cuts, finally decided to testify for the @USHouseFSC (he's obligated by law).

Now we have it on record that he thinks he works for the President.

Wrong. You work for the American people, Russell.

After years of lies, we're now expected to believe a genocidal military will investigate itself.

We need real justice for Hind and the tens of thousands of children murdered in Gaza. War criminals must be investigated and tried by the ICC and in every jurisdiction.

[The Associated Press @AP]

Israeli military says it will launch criminal probes into the killings of 5-year-old Palestinian girl Hind Rajab and Gaza paramedics. https://t.co/rpIkMUfhBx

Nolan Wells should be celebrating his 19th birthday today. Instead, his family is still wondering what happened to him, and if justice will ever prevail.

Nolan deserved to blow his candles out today—and his family deserves answers.

Justice for Nolan Wells.

[Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib @RepRashida]

The Trump admin is ending funding for nonprofits legally representing unaccompanied immigrant children. Instead, they gave $158M to a group founded by an ex-ICE agent to represent these kids.

They’ve rigged the system and targeted vulnerable children.

While CEOs of huge corporations get richer and richer, the workers that keep their businesses running struggle to make ends meet.

The consolidation of wealth in our country is fanning the flames of facism.

Congress must pass my Tax Excessive CEO Pay Act now.

[Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib @RepRashida]

The solutions to many of our problems have already been identified. Now, we just need elected officials to have the courage to pass them into law.

We can start with raising the minimum wage to $25/hr, passing Medicare for All, and ending the genocide in Gaza.

[Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib @RepRashida]

Last year, Trump and Republicans made the largest cut to Medicaid in American history, causing thousands of my residents and up to 355,000 Michiganders to be at risk of losing their health coverage.

This is shameful. We will continue working to make sure affordable healthcare is a right for all—not a privilege for some.

[Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib @RepRashida]

My statement on the Islamophobic white supremacists' march in Dearborn.

[Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib @RepRashida]

Last year, Trump and Republicans slashed SNAP in their Big Ugly Bill—and now they’re targeting our most vulnerable neighbors.

It's disgusting. Our communities deserve investment, not cruelty inflicted by corrupt politicians that have never missed a meal.

[ProPublica @propublica]

A rule change pushed by White House officials would slash benefits or end support for as many as 400,000 Supplemental Security Income recipients with Down syndrome, dementia and other disabilities whose parents or relatives receive SNAP benefits.

[Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib @RepRashida]

Our fight is not with our neighbors. It is with the one percent.

The world’s first trillionaire lives in the same country where the government guts Social Security for seniors, steals food from children, and slashes healthcare.

It’s shameful. We can and must do better.

[Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib @RepRashida]

Israel’s National Security Minister doesn’t even see Palestinians as human beings–yet our government still funds Israel’s war crimes with $3.8 billion every year.

When will my colleagues stop engaging in genocide denial and take action? We need an arms embargo now.

[Al Jazeera English @AJEnglish]

Israel’s far-right national security minister Itamar Ben-Gvir says Israeli forces should “kill 30 or 40” people in Gaza every night.

He also called for targeted killings of Palestinians, saying some were “not worthy of life”.

The Southwest Detroit community mourns the loss of Beto, a beloved leader and ally who helped build a lasting legacy, including the annual Cinco de Mayo parade. Sending love and condolences to his family, friends, and all who knew him. His legacy lives on.
