I am pleased to join Reps. Thompson of PA, Craig of MN, & Harris of MD to serve as the co-chair of the bipartisan Congressional 4-H Caucus in the U.S. House in the 119th Congress. Sens. Boozman of AR & Klobuchar of MN co-chair the caucus counterpart in the Senate.

We must remain united as a nation against politically motivated killings which are an attack on our country’s ideals and democracy.
I am heartbroken to learn of the assassination of MN State House Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband as well as the attempted murder of MN Sen. John Hoffman and his wife early this morning.
That is why I, alongside the Congressional Blue Dog Coalition, urged Republican leaders to bring this bill to a vote and I was happy to support its passage.
This bill empowers law enforcement to effectively prosecute the manufacturers and traffickers of new illicit drugs that are designed to look and act like fentanyl and are often more dangerous. It represents commonsense policy and has bipartisan support.
Fentanyl continues to hurt communities across America and tear apart families. the HALT Fentanyl Act helps in our fight against this public health emergency and threat to our national security.

It forces America to retreat from the world stage by gutting life-saving programs that help prevent pandemics, provide clean water, and gives American agricultural producers the opportunity to help prevent hunger around the world.
The bill takes an axe to public broadcasting which jeopardizes coverage of local news, emergency information like severe weather alerts, and access to PBS KIDS children’s programming, like Sesame Street, for rural communities across America.
The Administration has been illegally impounding funds that they are obligated to distribute, and the Recissions Act would rubber-stamp these actions all while Republicans in Congress devise a way to redistribute this money as tax cuts to billionaires.

It makes healthcare more costly & less accountable to veterans & the taxpayer by pushing privatization, reduces access to VA medical centers, does not match the housing & childcare needs of our military families, and risks dangerous understaffing as well as the loss of good, experienced VA workers.
Congress should support our military families and veterans who have made great sacrifices for our country, but this bill falls short.
On Tuesday, the full House Appropriations Committee debated and voted on the Fiscal Year 2026 Military Construction, Veterans Affairs, & Related Agencies funding bill.

I hope that we can make amendments and produce a bill that works for the American people.
It retreats from nutrition programs that help women, children, the elderly, and our veterans afford healthy food while, at the same time, employ America’s ag producers in our country’s effort to fight hunger. It gouges the institutions folks rely on to keep our food and medicine safe.
As a leader of the subcommittee that funds the Dept. of Agriculture, including Rural Development, & the FDA I am helping lead today's debate on the Fiscal Year 2026 spending bill. Right now, this bill is making housing, public services, & utilities more costly for rural families & small businesses.
The program also connects these young Americans with apprenticeships, higher education opportunities, or the military.
Job Corps is one of the few national programs that specifically targets the 16-24-year-old population that is neither working, nor in school, and provides them with a direct pathway into employment openings in industries such as manufacturing and shipbuilding.
Job Corps is a national program with over 120 centers across the country. Job Corps offers at-risk youth varied academic opportunities and career pathways in business and industry. Nearly 20,000 young people utilize Job Corps to learn skills for in-demand vocational and technical job training.
On May 29, the Department of Labor issued a notice that it will begin a phased pause in operations at contractor-operated Job Corps centers across the country.
