Hakeem Jeffries

Brooklyn Congressman. Leader @HouseDemocrats. Work hard. Stay focused. Deliver results #ForThePeople.

[Hakeem Jeffries @RepJeffries]

The House just passed the Democratic resolution requiring Donald Trump to end his reckless and costly war of choice in Iran.

[Hakeem Jeffries @RepJeffries]

We cannot trust the Trump administration to abolish their corrupt $1.8 billion slush fund.

Congress must kill it by legislation.

Permanently.

[Hakeem Jeffries @RepJeffries]

The far-right Supreme Court has issued another partisan redistricting decision.

Extremist MAGA justices have done nothing but advance the political interests of the Republican Party.

They have zero credibility.

[Hakeem Jeffries @RepJeffries]

We have secured the release of a brilliant and caring 18-year old teenage girl held in ICE custody for months.

She is now back on track to graduate from High School.

A reminder for @DHSgov:

There is no statute of limitations for killing American citizens in cold blood.

Depraved indifference to human life is a serious crime punishable under federal law.

The American people know that ICE is a failure.

[Homeland Security @DHSgov]

A reminder for @RepJeffries:

1) DHS doesn’t make the laws, Congress does. We don’t pick and choose which laws to enforce—and neither should you as a “lawmaker.”

2) It is a crime to enter the United States illegally. EVERYONE being held inside Delaney Hall broke the law.

U.S. Code, Title 8, Section 1325.

This is a detention center — we do not provide luxury accommodations. What we do provide are basic necessities like beds, clean water, comprehensive healthcare, and 3 meals a day until they go HOME.

If you come to our country illegally, we will find you and arrest you. We encourage ALL illegal aliens to self-deport today: https://t.co/3aZlQ6TZGZ

The corrupt Trump $1.8 billion slush fund for violent insurrectionists is on life support.

Congress needs to pull the plug.

[Hakeem Jeffries @RepJeffries]

Republicans have caused health insurance premiums to skyrocket for millions of hardworking taxpayers.

Why?

They don’t give a damn about the personal finances of the American people.

[Hakeem Jeffries @RepJeffries]

Statement on this morning’s congressional oversight visit to notorious ICE detention center Delaney Hall.

[Hakeem Jeffries @RepJeffries]

Just completed a congressional oversight visit with members of the New Jersey delegation.

Delaney Hall should be shut down.

This is not America.

[Hakeem Jeffries @RepJeffries]

Thank you @RepBeatty for fighting for the Kennedy Center.

Enough with the presidential graffiti from the Trump administration.

The Kennedy Center belongs to the American people.

[Hakeem Jeffries @RepJeffries]

A federal court has stopped the Trump administration from going forward with its corrupt $1.8 billion slush fund.

We will keep the pressure on these extremists.

And protect your taxpayer dollars from Republican waste, fraud and abuse.

[Hakeem Jeffries @RepJeffries]

Taxpayer dollars should be used to make life more affordable.

Not brutalize and kill American citizens or violently target law-abiding immigrant families.

We strongly oppose the ICE budget reconciliation bill.

And will do everything we can to defeat it next week.

[Hakeem Jeffries @RepJeffries]

Hard No on a Trump $250 bill.

Get over yourself.

The upcoming July 4th anniversary is not about a wannabe King.

It’s about celebrating the American journey.

[Hakeem Jeffries @RepJeffries]

The affordability crisis is not a hoax and the American people know it.

You deserve better.

[Hakeem Jeffries @RepJeffries]

Groceries cost too much, gas prices are draining wallets and healthcare bills are impossible to pay.

Isn’t it time we put everyday Americans first?

[Hakeem Jeffries @RepJeffries]

The Trump revenge tour continues in Texas today.

Meanwhile.

The Republican economy continues to fall apart.

And the extremists have done nothing to make your life better.

[Hakeem Jeffries @RepJeffries]

Deeply grateful for the men and women of the U.S. Military who made the ultimate sacrifice.

To defend our freedom and the American way of life.

Our nation is forever in your debt.
