We say not on our watch.
Working in poor Americans who watch while Donald Trump makes billions for himself and his billionaire buddies using grift and corruption and stealing from the American people, all the while stripping health care and housing from tens of millions of Americans and driving up costs everywhere.
Not on our watch.
And yes, our trans kids across this country who are sick and tired of being bullied because it's not trans kids driving up your rent.
It is the billionaires doing that.
We are standing up for our trans kids across the country.
And of course, the survivors.
The survivors who are showing us exactly what courage and resilience looks like.
My official guest for State of the Union is a constituent of mine who is an Epstein survivor, who is in that building right now,
showing the strength and the face of courage to be in that building with Donald Trump speaking because they don't want him to not see them.
They are demanding that they be seen because the survivors of this horrific global sex trafficking program
ring of Jeffrey Epstein's, the predators and the pedophiles who need to be brought to justice will be brought to justice because of the courage and the resilience and the voices of these brave survivors.
So yes, Donald Trump, we are out here instead of in there because our state of the union is strong because the people of this country are strong and we will not sit down, shut up, move on, or be silenced.
We demand that all the predators, the pedophiles, the grifters, the lawless agents, and you, Donald Trump, be brought to justice.
It has been the honor of my life to work with real survivors in every single realm that we're talking about tonight.
And tonight, I have the honor to introduce a woman who has been an indispensable part of our Epstein survivor movement, who has been working with the survivors to demand that the United States hold these predators accountable.
Yes, we should lock them up.
And to make sure that we prosecute them, that we bring them down, that we hold them accountable, just like we see in the UK and around the world.
Tonight, inside the chamber, Donald Trump will have to face those survivors the same damn way that I forced Pam Bondi to face those survivors in the Judiciary Committee.
And so please join me in welcoming the amazing, the strategic, the remarkable Lauren Hirsch, who is the co-director of World Without Exploitation.
