‘Dangerous and Shameful’: 42 House #Democrats Help #GOP Send #Trump Spying Bill to Senate

“It was these Democrats’ responsibility to stand up against this administration, and they voted to stand down instead,” said one campaigner.

Jessica Corbett, Apr 29, 2026

Excerpt: " 'The 42 Democratic votes to advance Speaker Johnson and Donald Trump’s #surveillance agenda are dangerous and shameful,' she declared.

" 'These Democrats defied their constituents and common sense to undercut meaningful privacy reforms in the House and instead voted to hand over sweeping spy powers to the Trump administration,' she stressed. 'This means continuing #warrantless backdoor searches and allowing an increasing number of federal agencies to exploit the data broker loophole to supercharge #AI and fuel mass #DomesticSurveillance.' "

No surprise. #ChelliePingree voted against HR556, #JaredGolden voted for it.

Protect #Wildlife from Toxic #LeadAmmunition [and #FishingTackle]

"#HR556, a bill to prevent federal agencies from prohibiting or regulating the use of toxic lead ammunition and fishing tackle on certain public lands and waters, passed the House of Representatives on March 18. However, we are not done fighting this bill! Lead ammunition is a well-documented threat, leading to illness and death for millions of birds and other wild animals each year. Since there is no safe level for lead exposure, hunters, anglers, and their families can also be harmed. Please contact your US representative about their vote on H.R. 556 and urge your senators to oppose this bill."

Bill Status and details:

H.R.556 — 119th Congress (2025-2026)

Protecting Access for Hunters and Anglers Act of 2025

"This bill bars the Fish and Wildlife Service (#FWS), the Bureau of Land Management (#BLM), and the Forest Service from prohibiting or regulating the use of lead ammunition or tackle on federal land or water. The bill makes exceptions for specified existing regulations and where the FWS, the BLM, or the Forest Service determines that a decline in wildlife population at the specific unit of federal land or water is primarily caused by the use of lead in ammunition or tackle, based on the field data from such unit, and the state approves the regulations."

7 House #Democrats Vote With #GOP to Give #ICE More Money Despite Deadly Invasions of #USCities

“The billions in funding in this bill will only embolden ICE and CBP to continue arresting our neighbors—immigrant and US citizen alike,” warned one ACLU attorney.

Jessica Corbett
Jan 22, 2026

Excerpt: "Democratic Reps. #HenryCuellar (Texas), #DonDavis (NC), #LauraGillen (NY), #JaredGolden (Maine), #VicenteGonzalez (Texas), #MarieGluesenkampPerez (Wash.), and #TomSuozzi (NY) joined all Republicans but Rep. Thomas Massie (KY) for the 220-207 vote that sent the legislation to the Senate—where the GOP also has a majority, but it’s so narrow that most bills need some Democratic support to pass.

"House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) notably refused to pressure members of his caucus to oppose the bill, even though voters clearly oppose federal operations featuring violence and lawlessness by agents with Customs and Border Protection (#CBP) and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (#ICE) everywhere from California and #Illinois, to #Minnesota and #Maine."

Did some patrolling around #PortlandME today. Lots of business have Anti-ICE signs which state that they consider them trespassers and will call the local police. Good! I had my phone and whistle, but didn't see any masked asshats. Had a nice chat with an unhoused fella who hangs out near the bar that I DJ at (and I slipped some money to him after our chat). A lot of the regulars know me, and know that I always have an ear to hear their stories, even if I don't always remember to carry cash for them. Anyhow, the streets were unusually empty -- especially empty of POC. I don't like that my former stomping grounds is being terrorized. And #JaredGolden giving more money to these terrorists (naively thinking they can be reined in) is beyond disgusting! I didn't see anyone out protesting (I know there was a rally planned for 5pm), so I decided to head home before the snow squalls blew in (they started just as I got home). Kudos to the hearty souls who are out there braving the cold tonight -- whether they are protesting, homeless, or just trying to earn a living under a #FascistRegime -- my heart goes out to them!

Looks like #Maine's #JaredGolden voted along Republican lines on #HR9495. As to why Golden identifies as a member of the Democratic Party is beyond me!

Well that didn't take long. Our #HarrisWalz sign hadn't been up a week before getting tagged by #maga vandals here in #maine

That motivated me to donate again to Harris, #jaredgolden and #mainedemocrats

This is too close, donate or volunteer or both: https://www.mobilize.us/MaineDems/

A bipartisan #DischargePetition has been filed by #BrianFitzpatrick (R-PA) and #JaredGolden (D-CO) to bypass #PutinPuppet #MoscowMike Johnson and pass funding for #NationalSecurity and #BorderSecurity. 👉 https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/transcript-reps-brian-fitzpatrick-and-jared-golden-on-face-the-nation-feb-25-2024/ar-BB1iRxtl
