(2/4) Our military is only as strong as our servicemembers and so much of their strength comes from their families. The Congressional Military Family Caucus is here to make sure Congress does its best for our military families because the quality of life they have affects recruitment and retention.
(1/4) In January, Congresswoman Jen A. Kiggans (VA-02) and I re-registered the Congressional Military Family Caucus for the 119th Congress. We will both serve as the caucus’s bipartisan Democratic and Republican co-chairs, respectively.
I met with Albany Area Primary Health Care, Inc. this week. Community health care centers provide affordable, accessible services, especially in rural America and reduce strain on hospitals & emergency rooms. Congress must fight against funding chaos that jeopardizes healthcare for Georgians.
I was proud to join the National Federation of the Blind yesterday and will fight to protect the Americans with Disabilities Act and programs that support blind Americans and prevent discrimination. With proper training and opportunities, the visually impaired can lead active and productive lives.
(6/6) Following the Civil Rights Movement, Mrs. Quarterman, now dubbed “Albany’s Rosa Parks,” lived a relatively quiet life until her passing in 2007 at the age of 64. #BHM2025
(5/6) She was subsequently arrested and spent 30 days in jail. Upon her release, she was expelled from Albany State and lost nearly everything she had. She immersed herself further into the Civil Rights Movement by organizing boycotts against the city’s transit system.
(4/6) In January of 1962, she was asked to move to the back of a city bus at the request of the bus driver and refused saying, “I paid my d**n ten cents, and I'll sit where I please.”
(3/6) One of those unsung heroes was Mrs. Ola Mae Quarterman-Clemons. Ola Mae was born in 1944 in Worth County, Georgia. A product of the Dougherty County School System, she graduated from Monroe High School and went on to attend Albany State College (now University).
(2/6) This #BlackHistoryMonth, let us continue her fight for equity and justice, remember her legacy of nonviolent protest, and honor the legacies of those often-unsung heroes who helped to pave the way for a brighter day in the United States of America.
(1/6) Today, on what would be Rosa Parks' 112th birthday, we honor her legacy as a civil rights icon whose principled and steadfast leadership contributed to the fight for desegregation across the country.
I was heartbroken to hear of the tragic accident that occurred last night near Washington, DC National Airport. As we continue to learn more information, my deepest sympathies and prayers are with the families and loved ones of those who tragically lost their lives.
This week, I joined House Budget Chairman Jodey Arrington (TX-19) to introduce HR 601, the Estate Tax Rate Reduction Act. This bipartisan legislation would cut the estate tax in half and provide tax relief to family-owned businesses. bishop.house.gov/media-center...
I'm excited to announce that I've been reappointed to 3 subcommittees on the US House Committee on Appropriations for the 119th Congress, including serving as the top Democrat on the Agriculture, Rural Development, FDA, and Related Agencies subcommittee. bishop.house.gov/media-center...
GA grows half of America’s peanuts & I’m proud to lead the bipartisan Congressional Peanut Caucus in the 119th Congress w/ Rep. Barry Moore of AL! The caucus will make sure that peanut production, management, & marketing are considered as we craft the next Farm Bill. bishop.house.gov/media-center...
