Congressional Hispanic Caucus

🚨 BREAKING 🚨 @HispanicCaucus adopts Non-Negotiable DHS Funding Conditions: 
1️⃣ Suspend abusive ICE/CBP practices and protect citizens and lawful residents.
 2️⃣ Redirect $75B from mass detention to humane community safety and affordability. 
3️⃣ Deliver real accountability: unmask ICE, body cameras, ban military gear, protect civil rights.   This is what responsible governance looks like. chc.house.gov/media-center/p…

Today, we remember all who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country, including the countless Latino servicemembers whose courage helped shape America’s history. 🇺🇸

Today marks four years since the shooting at Robb Elementary in Uvalde, TX. We will never forget the 19 children and two teachers who were murdered in their classrooms, robbing the world of their light and their impact. Today, and every day, we honor their memories, their lives and their legacies.

This is precisely the kind of taxpayer-funded torture detainees are subjected to at Camp East Montana. texastribune.org/2026/05/20/el-…

Republicans stopped the House from voting to rein in Trump and end his war in Iran. Because they knew they’d lose. Americans are against this reckless war, but Republicans would rather bend the knee to Trump and blow taxpayer dollars on foreign wars thanhelp families here at home. @HouseDemocrats will not back down.

It has now been more than 72 hours since Karla - a DACA recipient - was abducted from her home in Tucson. She has no criminal history. She has been here since she was one year old. Her treatment is an absolute disgrace. azcentral.com/story/news/pol…

Mario Alejandro Rodríguez Aranda is becoming sicker and sicker while he is being locked away in an ICE prison in Texas. He has been languishing since November. We've seen that denied or delayed medical treatment is typical for many men and women locked up by ICE right now. What began as a toothache has turned into a medical nightmare. He had a dental infection, and the pain spread to his ears and face. The pain is intense. He cannot swallow, breathe, or eat properly. He has been on antibiotics for months. Now, he is also enduring severe kidney pain. He is suffering from panic attacks. Mario should never have been detained. His work permits are valid through 2029. He did everything the right way. His wife, Lorena, and their church community miss him. He should be released immediately.

When we recently showed up unannounced at the Otay Mesa Detention Center, ICE staff handed us a memo dated that same day. The new policy: no conversations with detainees unless we name them in advance and produce signed consent two business days out. The administration has already gutted the ICE inspector general and closed the Detention Ombudsman. Now they want to shut the door on Congress too. If everything inside is fine, why work this hard to keep us out? I will keep showing up. I will keep asking questions. And I will keep fighting for transparency and humane conditions inside facilities paid for by American taxpayers. prospect.org/2026/05/20/tru…

Donald's Folly is one step closer to construction! Meanwhile in America, gas is $4.56 and rising and Epstein's accomplices remain anonymous and free.

The Dilley Trailer Prison is making $13.1 million every month. In America, it is now the norm to commodify child suffering and allow private investors and companies like CoreCivic to profit from the imprisonment of innocent children. Dilley must be shut down so we can #FreeOurChildren.

Today, @hispaniccaucus members joined @housedemocrats and @senatedems for a press conference pushing back against Republicans’ reckless budget bill that fails to lower costs for working families while putting critical programs like nutrition assistance, housing, and healthcare at risk.

Thank you to Governor Gavin Newsom for joining this week’s CHC business meeting to discuss election security and immigration. With more than 16 million Latinos calling California home, these conversations matter deeply to the future of our communities, our democracy, and our country.

Stephen Miller’s mass deportation agenda has gone too far. He’s targeting Dreamers, who know no other home than the US, and letting agents racially profile Latinos. I’m fighting back. thehill.com/homenews/senat…

🚨UPDATE: LYING ICE AGENT CHARGED After admitting he lied about being “beaten by shovels,” this ICE agent is now facing 4 assault charges and 1 count of falsely reporting a crime. The charges against the victims were dropped. How many other ICE agents have lied under oath?

ICYMI: Trump is using YOUR taxpayer dollars to write checks to his allies and to  January 6th rioters.    Corruption plain and simple. I’m fighting to stop it.

So is this document confetti or toilet paper? We are keeping tabs and we will have accountability.

Let me get this straight: • Trump sued the IRS for $10 BILLION after his tax returns leaked. • Then he put his friend and former personal attorney Todd Blanche in charge of the Justice Department. • Now there’s a $1.8 BILLION taxpayer-funded slush fund that could funnel YOUR money to Trump allies and even January 6 rioters. Corruption at its finest! nytimes.com/2026/05/18/us/…

ICYMI: Last week, Tri-Caucus staff met with affinity bar associations to discuss public trust, system integrity, and access to justice. Justice is strongest when every community has a voice in the room.

When it comes to this Administration's treatment of dreamers, Stephen Miller is being a racist and a coward.
