Rep. Jared Hoffman's 'No Prophets' is a stark warning about the insidious rise of Christian nationalism in America.

Today, following a survey of our members, the Congressional Progressive Caucus voted to adopt an official position to oppose the Senate's Bipartisan American Affordability and Jobs Act (BAAJA) as drafted, unless significant improvements are made. (1/x)

NEW: The Congressional Progressive Caucus is officially opposing BAAJA "unless significant improvements are made"

Incoming House Natural Resources Cmte chair Rep. Jared Huffman (D-CA) formally notifies 36 Trump Admin agency heads to "preserve documents, communications, and other records tied to the Committee’s investigations of the Trump administration"
Formal investigations are coming...
Rep. Jared Huffman retweeted
We cannot support the permitting bill (BAAJA) in its current form. We urge Congress: don’t rush this. Work collaboratively with states, Tribes, and the administration to safeguard wildlife, public lands, and community voices. 🏞️ 🦅
Rep. Jared Huffman retweeted
Is this who we should be trying to cut energy deals with right now?
Or should we work with a democratic Congress to get the best possible deal for the American people.
If we learned anything last Tuesday it’s this: give the people what they want. And that’s not this deal.
Rep. Jared Huffman retweeted
This is the same guy who's illegally blocking billions in energy funding for blue states like mine.
This once again proves Trump is a bad faith negotiator, and we'd be fools to hand him more power.
Americans want Democrats to fight for them. We must fight for a better deal.
Rep. Jared Huffman retweeted
Trump on BAAJA: "The permitting bill is a great bill…We are behind it 100%."
Reporter: "And you're going to approve wind turbines in the future?"
Trump: "No, I will not approve wind turbines."
Reporter: "That's part of this deal."
Trump: "I know, but I won't approve it."
Rep. Jared Huffman retweeted
Thanks to @RepHuffman for standing with Tribal Nations and opposing BAAJA. Permitting reform should honor Tribal sovereignty, not undermine it
Rep. Jared Huffman retweeted
There is no mandate in #BAAJA that data centers connect to the grid, and Big Tech knows it.
People, please wake up!

"Congress will demand answers from the people enabling this abuse of our public lands & laws... Oversight and accountability.. won’t stop at the White House door"

NEW: @JaredHuffman tells me of BAAJA changes : “a mix of good, bad, & unknown. I welcome any improvements, but they also prove my main point: allowing some time, input, & process makes bills better, so champions of this bill should stop being so hostile to basic public process”

Jared Huffman’s win, combined with Democrats retaking the House majority, is expected to propel him to the chairmanship of the Natural Resources Committee, where oversight of the Trump administration is coming, he has vowed. petalumanews.com/2026/11/03/…

A bit of free advice for every corporation that spent the last two years cashing in on its access to this White House. Hang on to your records.
Starting in January, Congress will follow the money.
When the government works for donors and insiders, working families pay for it at the checkout line and on their utility bills. Your costs and their corruption go hand in hand.

🔥 “I find it ironic to read a post from J.D. Vance as if he’s describing the actions of a different administration. He’s the Vice President. There has to be a reckoning. This is a war they started. It’s a war they can end.”
@NYCMayor @ZohranKMamdani stuffs @JDVance in a locker
Rep. Jared Huffman retweeted
Good to see Judge Chutkan swiftly bar the Trump Administration from moving forward with its illegal plans to ram this project through.
Her injunction will properly restrain Trump’s rush to ignore and bypass the legal barriers, overwhelming opposition from the people most affected, and glaring evidence of irreparable harm to national treasures like Arlington National Cemetery -- all the things this administration is wrongly ignoring.
But it's important to remember that this fight is not over.
While this decision prevents Donald Trump from immediately implementing his plans to create a monument to his own ego, the courts and Congress must put in place permanent safeguards to stop the Trump Administration from violating the law and proceeding with this project.
I will do everything in my power alongside my colleagues in the Democratic majorities just elected to the next Congress to ensure that this wasteful, disrespectful monstrosity goes nowhere.
BREAKING: Judge Chutkan has blocked construction of Trump's proposed "triumphal arch" for at least 14 days while litigation against it remains pending.

Public testimony begins with @RepHuffman, top Democrat on key panel overseeing parkland, saying that Trump’s arch is illegal and he must ask Congress if he wants to build it.
HUFFMAN: "Donald Trump is a president, not a king."
Huffman and Paoletta then argued at length.
