Unelected, unqualified staff, at the behest of Elon Musk, are rooting around in Small Business Administration data that they have no business handling. As the ranking member of the Small Business Committee, I am asking for answers.

NEW: DOGE has requested and is being granted “access to all SBA systems,” per an email sent to @SBAgov employees today. Edward Coristine, a DOGE official, held a call with SBA staff detailing level of access they wanted, including HR, contract and payment systems

Censoring research, hiding information on vaccines and birth control, removing vital information on HIV. Trump is risking lives in pursuit of an ill-conceived, Elon Musk-driven agenda. Just 2 weeks into this administration and Americans are less safe. nytimes.com/2025/02/03/hea…

In plain English: Republicans in Congress plot more severe budget cuts to health care, nursing homes, and school lunches to pay for tax breaks for billionaires like Elon Musk. It sounds absurd, but it’s true.

Let me get this straight: RFK Jr.’s idea of fixing his ethics issues is to hand his stake over to his son? The son who works at the same law firm that RFK Jr. made millions off of? RFK Jr.'s nomination should not move forward one inch until we get answers.
NBC Politics@NBCPolitics

Two Democratic senators on the committee that will get to decide whether to advance RFK Jr.'s nomination say his recent financial disclosure filing gave them “grave concern” about whether he should become the next health and human services secretary. nbcnews.com/politics/congr…

Elon Musk seized control of our payment system—that's how your grandpa gets his Social Security check or how your mom’s doctor gets paid by Medicare. The unelected billionaire wants the power to turn that on or off, for anyone. No more business as usual. We need to fight back.

Trump tried to rip away funding for Head Start, fuel assistance & other vital resources—plunging families into fear & chaos. But we fought back & forced him to back down. Proud to join @WhipKClark & @RepMcGovern to make plain that when we fight, we can win.

This is not normal. No one elected Musk—but Trump is letting him raid classified material and people's private financial information. A billionaire with his own motives and foreign entanglements. This is a dangerous, unprecedented power grab.
The Associated Press@AP

BREAKING: USAID security chiefs placed on leave after they refused to turn over classified material to Elon Musk's government-inspection teams, officials say. apnews.com/article/doge-m…

I'm glad a judge has blocked Trump's harmful and unlawful freeze on federal spending. And when Republicans try again to rip away essential resources, we'll fight back once again. We'll meet them in the courts, in Congress, and right in our communities. nytimes.com/2025/02/03/us/…

Trump's rollback of DEI initiatives are an affront to all of us.   It’s a FACT that systemic oppression codified in our laws & budgets has harmed women, people of color, LGBTQIA+ & disabled folks & many others.   Diversity is our strength & everyone in America deserves to thrive.

For over a decade, Pete Hegseth said women shouldn't serve in combat roles. Then, when Donald Trump nominated him for Secretary of Defense, he changed his tune. I'm not letting him rewrite history.
