Read my letter to @HouseDemocrats Colleagues, offering a legal analysis and rebuttal from @HouseJudDems to the deeply misleading #NunesMemo. ImageImageImageImage
1. The FISA court found probable cause to believe that Carter Page is an agent of a foreign power. Nothing in the #NunesMemo rules out the possibility that considerable evidence beyond the Steele dossier helped the court reach that conclusion.
2. Christopher Steele is a recognized expert on Russia and organized crime. The #NunesMemo does not provide a single shred of evidence that any aspect of the Steele dossier is false or inaccurate in any way.
3. The #NunesMemo provides no credible basis whatsoever for removing Rod Rosenstein as Deputy Attorney General.
4. The #NunesMemo shows that House Republicans are now part and parcel to an organized effort to obstruct the Special Counsel's investigation.

Today, @housejudiciary is holding a hearing to examine the persistent problem of harassment and discrimination in the federal judiciary and explore what Congress can do to address it. (1/4)

The United States Courts are supposed to be a pillar of our democracy, built on justice and fairness. But it is becoming increasingly obvious that there is a crack in that foundation. (2/4)
While courts are charged with dispensing justice to the litigants before them, judiciary employees who are victims of harassment and discrimination are too often kept quiet—shut out of the very courtrooms they work so hard to support. (3/4)

Today, @housejudiciary is holding a markup for H.R. 350, the Domestic Terrorism Prevention Act of 2021:
This bill creates three offices—one each within the Department of Homeland Security, the Department of Justice, and the FBI—to monitor, investigate, and prosecute cases of domestic terrorism.
These newly created offices would issue joint biannual reports to Congress assessing the state of domestic terrorism threats, with a specific focus on white supremacists.

Anyone who has gone to the grocery store recently has seen the price of food go up, with the price of meat, poultry, and eggs rising at a clip that far surpasses the rest. Why? Because those are the markets with the fewest competitors; dominated by just a few corporate giants.
Due to unchecked consolidation, a few corporations own every link in the food supply chain. The beef, poultry, and pork processing markets are each dominated by four huge corporations. The grocery retail market similarly is concentrated in the hands of just a few companies.
Corporate concentration in food markets is bad for Americans.

Throughout the pandemic, businesses have earned record profits while people have seen their paychecks buying less. This is nothing short of pandemic profiteering, at the expense of everyone else.

As @POTUS and @VP discussed today, since the foundation of our nation, millions of our fellow citizens have fought and died to access the right to vote— our most fundamental freedom.
Yet despite these sacrifices, anti-voter laws are being pushed through state legislatures by radicals who seek to deny millions of Americans access to the ballot box.
Since the passage of the VRA of 1965, protecting Americans’ right to vote had not been a partisan issue. In 2006, the Senate supported the same principles in the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act when it voted 98-0 to reauthorize the VRA.

Read my statement on the recent reports that the Department of Justice inappropriately targeted journalists and Members of Congress.
nadler.house.gov/news/documents…
It is outrageous that the Department of Justice may have used a criminal investigation as pretext to spy on journalists, Members of Congress, their families, and Congressional staff.
nytimes.com/2021/06/10/us/…
.@HouseJudiciary expects @TheJusticeDept to provide a full accounting of these cases, and we expect the Attorney General to hold the relevant personnel accountable for their conduct.

Today, @HouseJudiciary released our investigation into the Trump Admin’s family separation policy. What we uncovered was a policy marked by chaos, reckless incompetence, and intentional cruelty.

Read the report here: judiciary.house.gov/uploadedfiles/…
Our investigation shows the extent to which the Trump Admin was willing to go to extreme lengths—including ripping children from the arms of their parents—to stop migrants fleeing violence from seeking protection in the U.S. nadler.house.gov/news/documents…
When Trump’s family separation policy eventually ended, the lack of planning, coordination and capacity was made clear.

It is because of such total incompetence and disregard for human life that hundreds of children remain separated today and may never see their parents again.
