It's like life changes overnight.
You're on all these interviews, all of a sudden everyone cares about who you are.
I get home, I walk into my living room, and I'm taken aback
by how I didn't even recognize my own living room.
And I remember telling, I think my sister or someone, I was like, this is how it happens.
This is how you go to DC and you start losing these little parts of you, little by little.
And that for me was just kind of a huge slap in the face that told me, you need to set up systems of accountability so people in your community
can hold you accountable and so you can keep yourself accountable and i think that's in every little thing you do the staff you hire which half of my staff is from my district which i think is really important in dc right yeah um the art you put on your walls who has your phone number and what's their ability to contact you from your community all these little things i think are really important that's an act of mind that's acts of mindfulness
it's exactly and you have to be very mindful about it really self-critique a lot and give people the opportunity and the ability to do the same to you because we're not perfect people and if you don't do that you will lose your way and it starts with forgetting a little bit of how your living room looked like after just seven days of craziness we do more than seven days of craziness here so you know then it's important
This is what a dictator does.
This is what an authoritarian regime does.
And this is what Trump has been saying he wanted to do.
So I'm not quite surprised by it.
He wants to assert his power and authority, and in many cases, authority that he does not have.
And so we have to speak out against it in Congress.
We have to use every tool in our toolbox to fight against it.
There's a veteran in Orlando in my district that started a petition that's hundreds of petitions of Marines or veterans that are Marines that signed it saying we don't want the military being used on our cities and on our streets.
And people have to know, you know, I hate when people say this stuff is a distraction.
I don't think it's a distraction.
When you say something's a distraction, it means you're implying that you shouldn't pay attention to it.
