Press Releases

WASHINGTON — Representative Pramila Jayapal (WA-07), chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, and Representative Barbara Lee (CA-13), chair of the Caucus Peace and Security Taskforce, issued the following statement in response to President Biden’s announcement he would ban imports of Russian oil, and the House passage of the Suspending Energy Imports from Russia Act:

“In close consultation with our European allies, the White House has imposed a ban on U.S. imports of Russian oil and gas as a further response to Russia’s illegal invasion of Ukraine. We urge the administration to link this policy, along with other sanctions measures, to a clear diplomatic process for de-escalating the conflict, and incentivizing a ceasefire that includes a Russian military withdrawal from Ukraine.

“Now more than ever, we can see why it is so essential to double down on our transition to renewable energy and not be reliant on dictators for our energy needs. We applaud the President’s call for investing in renewable energy, not only to keep gas prices down, but also to increase America’s manufacturing power, and deny countries like Russia the means to leverage fossil fuel exports against other countries as it carries out wars of aggression. The House-passed climate agenda — investments in electric vehicles powered by clean energy, tax credits to winterize homes, and more — will save families hundreds of dollars in utility bills, protect working people from unpredictable price swings in a volatile global energy market, and keep us on the path to meet President Biden’s goal of halving American carbon emissions by 2030. We simply cannot drill or burn our way to that goal — and forgoing it in the name of short-term energy independence would cause irrevocable climate damage.

“As the President said in his remarks this week, gas prices will rise. That is why we also must immediately take executive and legislative action to raise wages and lower other costs for American families, including prescription drug prices, child care, and elder care.

"In addition, as the President also emphasized, this is ‘no time for profiteering or price gouging.’ Big Oil must not be allowed to shamelessly use a crisis to raise the prices of goods and services most in need. Fortunately, Congress has the tools to respond: we urge our colleagues to quickly move forward an expanded version of Rep. Jan Schakowsky (IL-09)’s COVID-19 Price Gouging Prevention Act to include gas and energy prices, prohibiting corporations’ ability to squeeze families.

“We can, and must, hold Russia accountable while ensuring that our planet, our communities, and their economic security do not pay the price for Putin’s invasion. This is the moment to take decisive action that protects all three.”

WASHINGTON — Representative Pramila Jayapal (WA-07), chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, member of the House Judiciary Committee, and co-chair of the Transgender Equality Task Force, issued the following statement in response to reports that the state of Texas has begun investigating parents of transgender children for ‘child abuse.’

“I am disgusted by Governor Abbott’s reprehensible, discriminatory attack on transgender youth and their families. The fear and psychological impact that such attacks will cause on transgender children and their parents is incalculable. No person should have their fundamental right to be who they are questioned, and no parent should ever face criminal action for simply supporting their child. This is destructive discrimination and it must be stopped.

“I was pleased to hear President Biden reiterate his support of our transgender kids last night in his State of the Union address. Today, I am calling on the Department of Justice to follow through by investigating these events in Texas and ensuring we protect young trans Texans and their families.

“I speak from personal experience as the proud mother of a transgender child. I have seen my child come to understand who she is and take the risk to come out as her authentic self. I’ve seen the weight that lifts when she’s able to live freely — the joy, beauty, and creativity she brings to the world. As a mother, supporting my child in living as her true self is my obligation as a parent and the farthest possible thing from abuse.

“What is harmful is depriving our children of the love that each and every one deserves, and making it unsafe to be who they are. A 2020 survey found that two in five LGBTQ+ youth have ‘seriously considered’ suicide. Violence against transgender and gender non-conforming people reached a record high in 2021.

“While this Texas action may be the latest and most egregious attack on the community at the state level, it is certainly not without precedent. In 2021, 147 anti-trans bills were introduced in state legislatures. Just by February 24 of this year, already more than 125 anti-trans state bills have been introduced. Make no mistake: this is a coordinated effort to erode what protections the transgender community has already won and legislate transgender people out of existence.

“When people’s rights are assailed like this, the federal government has an obligation to step in. This crisis is just one of the many urgent reasons for abolishing the Jim Crow filibuster and passing the Equality Act to finally codify nationwide, explicit, consistent protections against discrimination for LGBTQ people. And the executive branch must respond as well."

WASHINGTON — Representative Pramila Jayapal (WA-07), chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, and Representative Barbara Lee (CA-13), chair of the Caucus Peace and Security Taskforce, issued the following statement following passage of H.Res. 956, Supporting the People of Ukraine:

“Today, we voted yes on H.Res.956 to stand in solidarity with Ukrainians who are suffering under Russia’s aggression, and to show our support for the courage, bravery, and resilience of the Ukrainian people in the face of Russia’s violent and illegal invasion.

“Alongside this resolution, we must reaffirm the urgent need for diplomacy and deescalation at this dangerous and unpredictable moment. As President Biden has rightly taken military response off the table, support for diplomacy is the most direct means we have of trying to bring peace to Ukraine in light of continued fighting and mounting harm to Ukrainian civilians.

“The Progressive Caucus has been calling for weeks for a diplomatic solution to this crisis, and we applaud U.S. efforts to rally the international community to condemn Russia’s blatant aggression and secure votes at the UN Security Council and General Assembly. We must continue to press for a rapid, negotiated settlement to prevent additional loss of life.

“The United States has a singular voice on the world stage, and it is at these moments that we need to be exceptionally thoughtful of how we use it. We must remain committed to alleviating this humanitarian disaster and work relentlessly toward deescalation.”

WASHINGTON — The following statement was released by leaders of the House of Representatives Democratic Caucuses in advance of President Biden’s first State of the Union address.

Those leaders include: Representatives Pramila Jayapal (WA-07), chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus; Suzan DelBene (WA-01), chair of the New Democrat Coalition; Judy Chu (CA-27), chair of the Congressional Asian Pacific American Caucus; Joyce Beatty (OH-03), chair of the Congressional Black Caucus; Dr. Raul Ruiz (CA-36), chair of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus; Lois Frankel (FL-21), Brenda L. Lawrence (MI-14), and Jackie Speier (CA-14), co-chairs of the Democratic Women’s Caucus; David Cicilline (RI-01), chair of the Congressional LGBTQ+ Equality Caucus; and Gerald Connolly (VA-11), Paul Tonko (NY-20), and Doris Matsui (CA-06), co-chairs of the Sustainable Energy and Environment Coalition.

“As Chairs of the leading House Democratic Caucuses, we are calling for Congressional action on a final negotiated reconciliation bill that secures the support of 50 U.S. Senators and 218 U.S. Representatives.?We must move to reach a final agreement and focus on policies that will deliver immediate and lasting results for Americans.

“Democrats in Congress and the White House pulled the economy back from the brink by enacting the American Rescue Plan and the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, but real economic challenges remain for families. Congress must act quickly to address these challenges, especially as we continue to face systemic racism’s disparities and inequities, as well as rising prices squeezing working people, and the climate crisis that is escalating every day.

"It’s not too late to meet this moment. There is broad consensus on the most critical solutions Americans need to lower costs for families, tackle the climate crisis, and create opportunities and good-paying jobs. It is time to act.

“We stand united and ready to work with President Biden and all of our colleagues in the House and Senate to ensure a strong, final version of this bill becomes law as soon as possible.”

WASHINGTON — Representative Pramila Jayapal (WA-07), chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, issued this statement following President Biden’s first State of the Union address:

“Tonight, the President put forward a record of accomplishment and a vision for the country that we can all be immensely proud of. In the midst of a global pandemic, economic recession, and the immense task of rebuilding from the Trump years, the progress the President and our Democratic majority have made in the past year is nothing short of extraordinary.

“We passed the American Rescue Plan, which has led to the biggest yearly job growth in history, creating 6.4 million jobs in 2021 and averting the risk of a double-dip recession. Wages are up, unemployment is at the lowest rate since 1969, and the United States is the only major advanced economy with its GDP back at pre-pandemic levels. 4.2 million more people have health insurance than they did last year, and thanks to the Child Tax Credit, we lowered hunger across the country by 32 percent and cut child poverty in half.

“The President has restored many of our foreign alliances, which has already proven critically important as the United States confronts Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, with a strong focus on diplomacy paired with costs and consequences for Putin’s devastating war.

“The Biden administration is using its power to fight big corporate monopolies that are increasing costs and killing small businesses. Congress passed the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act to repair our crumbling roads, bridges, and waterways, and finally get lead out of water, all by creating good-paying, union jobs. And we are on our way to the COMPETES Act becoming law, which will take on inflation and rebuild U.S. supply chains that have been eroded by monopolies that stopped investing in America, bringing down costs for working people.

“Now comes the work to continue this progress. The challenges that families faced before the pandemic are still with us. That’s why in addition to continuing to fight the pandemic and rebuild the economy, Congress must make real strides in the promises we made to the American people.

“As the President emphasized tonight, we must pass legislation to lower the costs of Pre-K, health care, home-based care, and housing, and to ensure that child care doesn’t cost families more than 7 percent of their income — all by finally making the wealthy and corporations pay their fair share. He underscored the need to take meaningful action to address the climate crisis and deliver a roadmap to citizenship for immigrant communities. And as he said, “capitalism without competition is exploitation” — and the Progressive Caucus is similarly committed to taking on corporate profiteering and monopolistic abuse.

“President Biden has significant power to effect immediate, meaningful change for people across America, and we urge him to use it aggressively. The President can use his executive authority to bring down the costs of prescription drugs and stop Big Pharma’s price gouging; decrease carbon emissions to fight the climate crisis; cancel student debt and bolster our economy; protect workers’ rights and raise their wages; and provide immigration relief and rebuild our refugee system. In the coming weeks, the Progressive Caucus will release our executive action agenda for the President that details these steps, and more.

“Democrats in the White House and Congress have shown how much we can accomplish in a year. If we remain steadfast to our commitment to providing relief our communities need, lowering costs, and making life easier for working people, we can deliver.”

WASHINGTON — Representative Pramila Jayapal (WA-07), chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, issued the following statement upon President Biden’s nomination of Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson to the Supreme Court of the United States:

“The Progressive Caucus is thrilled to congratulate Judge Brown Jackson on her nomination, and President Biden on this laudable and historic choice.

“Judge Brown Jackson is eminently qualified, with a deep jurisprudence that covers a wide scope of the law. She brings decades of varied experience across the legal profession, from trial lawyer to the federal bench. She served as a clerk for federal judges who were appointed by both Republican and Democratic presidents, including Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer. She also brings experience on the federal bench, having served on the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia and then the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit since 2012.

“During her career, she has embodied one of the highest principles of American law — that everyone has the right to due process and legal representation. As a public defender, she represented those who could not afford to hire a lawyer. As Vice Chair of the Sentencing Commission under President Obama, she worked to alleviate harsh and unfair sentences for those convicted of drug crimes. She has worked to advance reproductive rights, bring justice to the all-too often unjust criminal legal system, and uphold the collective bargaining rights of workers.

“As the first Black woman and first public defender to serve on the high court, Judge Brown Jackson will bring a never-heard — and sorely needed — perspective to the bench. And this historic nomination carries with it a profound symmetry: Judge Brown Jackson will be the first on the bench with public defense experience since Justice Thurgood Marshall, the Supreme Court’s first-ever Black justice.

“We join with those across the country who are celebrating this nomination today, and look forward to seeing her confirmed.”

WASHINGTON — Representative Pramila Jayapal (WA-07), chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, and Representative Barbara Lee (CA-13), chair of the Caucus Peace and Security Taskforce, issued the following statement in response to the Russian invasion of Ukraine:

“The Progressive Caucus stands with the Ukrainian people and the international community in condemning the violent invasion of Ukraine by Russian President Vladimir Putin. This war of aggression is a blatant violation of international law, despite Putin’s baseless justifications.

“As the United States continues to weigh the scope of its response, we urge the Biden administration to be guided by two goals: to avoid dangerous escalation that is all too easy in the chaos of war, and to ensure we are minimizing harm to civilians.

“We applaud President Biden for rightly saying there can be no military solution to this conflict, and wisely committing to not deploying U.S. troops. We reiterate, alongside our colleagues, that the President must seek Congressional authorization pursuant to the War Powers Resolution before any U.S. troops deploy into areas or situations where there is a risk of imminent hostilities.

“The goal of any U.S. sanctions should be to stop the fighting and hold those responsible for this invasion to account, while avoiding indiscriminate harm to civilians or inflexibility as circumstances change. We urge the United States to continue the work toward diplomatic solutions, including at the United Nations, to urgently secure an immediate ceasefire, provide humanitarian assistance, and facilitate support for refugees.

“Today, our thoughts are with those who have already and will suffer the greatest harm from Putin’s aggression: the people of Ukraine in the direct path of this violence, and the people of the Ukrainian diaspora who are living with the immeasurable fear for their loved ones and homeland. Progressives are ready to assist the State Department and all resettlement agencies in supporting our European allies and welcoming refugees seeking shelter in the United States.

“We — the United States, our allies and partners, and the people and government of Ukraine — will stand together until this latest act of Russian aggression is ended, and we will work in partnership for its swift conclusion.”

WASHINGTON — Representative Pramila Jayapal (WA-07), chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus issued the following statement on the Biden administration’s executive order to break up and redistribute Afghanistan’s frozen Central Bank funds.

“For months, progressives in Congress, the United Nations Secretary General, and leading aid groups have been urging the Biden administration to release Afghanistan’s frozen reserves and assets in order to avert humanitarian disaster. Rather than heeding those calls, the administration has taken a path that raises grave concerns about the possible impact on the ability of the Afghan people to get the food they need to prevent starvation.

“Any functioning country must have access to its own currency and reserves. By removing and breaking up Afghanistan’s already frozen funds, the United States is continuing to contribute to a crumbling economy and devastating impacts on the Afghan people. Already, schools and hospitals cannot buy food for patients or gas to heat their buildings. Reporting from the ground shows that ‘incomes have vanished and life-threatening hunger has become widespread.’ Aid organizations have warned that U.S. policy could result in the death of more people than in 20 years of war in Afghanistan.

“While we agree on the need for robust humanitarian aid, it cannot substitute for a functioning central bank that stabilizes the currency, pays the salaries of civil servants, and provides reserves for private businesses that can prop up an ailing economy. It is also unclear how much of that aid would actually be able to reach people in need, when the country’s financial system is impeded by a web of sanctions.

“Most importantly, frozen assets belonging to the Afghan people should be released and used to restore the country's economy. The best way for the Biden administration to ameliorate the suffering of the Afghan people is to ease sanctions, work with international partners at the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund to release much-needed aid into the country, and to release the United States’ own freeze on Afghanistan’s funds — in addition to reversing course on this new order.

“The families of victims of 9/11 absolutely deserve compensation, but this is not the way to do it. President Biden has repeatedly promised that ‘human rights will be at the center of our foreign policy.’ We believe that he wants to keep that commitment — and that is why we urge him to reconsider this decision before it’s too late.”

WASHINGTON — This afternoon, the Congressional Progressive Caucus welcomed Federal Trade Commission Chair Lina Khan and Assistant Attorney General, Department of Justice Antitrust Division Jonathan Kanter to its member meeting.

Representative Pramila Jayapal (WA-07), Congressional Progressive Caucus chair and vice chair of the Subcommittee on Antitrust, Commercial, and Administrative Law issued the following statement:

“The Congressional Progressive Caucus was thrilled to welcome two of the administration’s leading voices on antitrust and consumer protection to engage with our membership today. It was a productive and rich discussion, focusing on some of the most pressing issues facing our economy and communities, including: anti-competitive mergers; price gouging, especially in treatments for COVID-19; and the myriad monopolistic practices in Big Tech that stifle innovation and competition, and harm consumers and small business. There was widespread and enthusiastic agreement for Congress reasserting its role and governing power in this space — something the CPC membership is deeply committed to and actively engaged on.

“We look forward to continuing this work together to reassert consumers’ rights and finally rebalance economic inequality away from corporate power and toward the people.”

WASHINGTON — The House of Representatives passed the America COMPETES Act today, which includes dozens of amendments offered by Congressional Progressive Caucus members. Progressives’ legislative inclusions to the bill will advance increased corporate accountability for firms receiving federal subsidies, promote gender and racial diversity in the technology sector, ensure strong human rights protections for U.S. security cooperation abroad, and strengthen climate action in the legislation.

The America COMPETES Act will spur greater American production of chips, strengthen U.S. supply chains and strengthen American manufacturing, and advance U.S. scientific excellence and research. Thanks to CPC members’ amendments, the bill will also include: policies to track carbon emissions and increase green climate funding, ensure women and workers of color are not left out of job creation in manufacturing, prevent U.S. funding to countries with histories of human rights abuses, and insert guardrails against corporate self-enrichment. Through the amendment process, the Caucus also secured the first vote in Congress on U.S. sanctions policy in Afghanistan and its humanitarian effects on civilian mortality and refugee outflows.

Representative Pramila Jayapal (WA-07), chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, said: “The CPC is committed to using every opportunity to ensure that U.S. policy is grounded in equity and fair treatment at home and abroad, and takes on the most urgent crises of our time, especially the climate crisis. Our members brought their unique experience and perspectives to identify COMPETES as such an opportunity, and mobilized to ensure that the bill included key progressive priorities.”
