In honor of the 61st anniversary of the Bloody Sunday, I joined Rep. Terri Sewell and colleagues to march across the Edmund Pettus Bridge. Today’s walk was symbolic, but the fight for civil and voting rights continues. Black history is American history and it must never be forgotten.

Rep. Joyce Beatty@repbeatty.bsky.socialMar 7(source)

On the 61st anniversary of Bloody Sunday, we honor those who bravely crossed the Edmund Pettus Bridge for civil rights and justice. Their courage pushed our nation closer to its promise of democracy and the right to vote for all. I am proud to carry their legacy forward in my work in Congress.

Trump’s rash actions in Iran have launched us into a costly war that has already taken the lives of brave American troops abroad. His overreach can't go unchecked - that's why I voted for the War Powers Resolution. Only Congress has the power to declare war.🔗More here: https://bit.ly/4btJ53O

The State of our Union is WEAK under Trump. He started a war on working families by destroying critical programs and letting Republicans gut healthcare. He also refused to apologize for his racist video depicting the Obamas as apes. It's despicable. 🔗Watch the full hit here: https://bit.ly/3OD4rCU

The SAVE America Act: This isn’t election security. It’s voter suppression. Half of Americans don’t have a passport, so Republicans want to charge you $130 just to exercise a constitutional right. Married women will be found ineligible if their documents do not match their new name.

Rep. Joyce Beatty@repbeatty.bsky.socialFeb 25(source)

70 million women changed their names when they got married. Under the SAVE America Act, their birth certificate won’t match their ID. So now getting married could cost you your vote. So much for family values Republicans!

Rep. Joyce Beatty@repbeatty.bsky.socialFeb 25(source)

Republicans control the House, the Senate, and the White House. So if there’s a shutdown, that’s on them. We’re asking for basic accountability: respect the Fourth Amendment, get a warrant before entering someone’s home, protect schools and hospitals, and investigate agents who break the law.

Rep. Joyce Beatty@repbeatty.bsky.socialFeb 25(source)

On corruption: A House Judiciary investigation found the Trump family built an $11.6 billion crypto empire that generated more than $800 million in its first year alone.

I chose to not attend Trump’s State of the Union — and here’s why. Ohio families deserve truth, accountability, and leadership that protects their rights and their wallets. Click to watch my full remarks on YouTube. 🎥 https://bit.ly/40z6bQ9

Today in 1942, Executive Order 9066 led to the wrongful incarceration of 120,000 Japanese Americans. A 1982 congressional study found it was driven by “race prejudice, war hysteria, and a failure of political leadership.” We remember and reject today’s fear-driven policies repeating this injustice.
