As congressional staffers, we will not stand by while power is used to intimidate communities, silence dissent, and erode fundamental rights. That's why the Board of CPSA today released a statement on the escalating violence at the hands of ICE. cpsaDC.org/press/ice-violenc…

Bring what you can, as well as your appetite! Amid this record-breaking shutdown, it's important staffers look out for one another and find community. At noon this Friday, we'll be holding a potluck lunch in Spirit of Justice Park directly behind Longworth.

CPSA stands in solidarity with our unionized food service workers. Vendors that refuse to rehire union staff threaten the livelihoods of workers who have long served our community on Capitol Hill! @UniteHere23

We urge staff and allies to consider joining Unite Here’s boycott until they commit to rehiring the current unionized workforce. These workers deserve respect, not replacement.
