91. Her most recent tweet 'The work continues'
Wed Mar 4, 2026, 01:37 PM
14 hrs ago
I am back in D.C. to hear from cruel Kristi Noem on why she is complicit in the chaos happening at DHS, vote on a War Powers Resolution to rein Donald Trump in, and vote against a DHS funding bill that does nothing to address the reckless actions we’re seeing from ICE. The work continues.


Rep. Crockett is rolling up her sleeves and being more adult about this than people three times her age are.
