This Hispanic Heritage Month, it is especially important to celebrate the power that comes from diversity. U.S. Latinos are the embodiment of ‘e pluribus unum’ – out of many, one.

Hispanic Heritage Month honors the culture, leadership, and contributions of Hispanics and Latinos who shape our communities. Especially this year, let’s use our voices to uplift and celebrate our neighbors amid a climate of fear that’s disrupting daily life.
Today, nearly every House Republican voted to surrender their own power to block Trump’s tariffs.
Trump’s illegal tariffs are taxes on the American people that are driving up costs, raising inflation, killing jobs, and weakening our economy.
Republicans voted to continue that.
A crushing healthcare price hike is on the horizon thanks to the Republican tax law, but Congress can fix this issue before millions of Americans are hit with eye-popping health care bills.

The American blank check for Netanyahu's Gaza City operation does not serve our interests.
We are mired in a moral and strategic morass, and the only way out is a fundamental alteration of the broken U.S.-Israeli relationship. 2/2
Palestinian civilians continue to be killed with American weapons, Israeli hostages are no closer to freedom, and people in this country and around the globe are rightfully horrified that their leaders refuse to see what is obvious to everyone else. 1/2

When 300 million people are at risk of identity theft at the hands of their government, people deserve accountability and answers.
That’s exactly what Ways and Means Democrats are calling for.

My statement with @markwarner.bsky.social, @bobbyscott.house.gov, @beyer.house.gov, @mcclellan.house.gov, @repvindman.bsky.social, @repsuhas.bsky.social, and Representative Walkinshaw condemning political violence:
We will never forget September 11th, the heroism we saw and the people we lost. We will always honor them, and our gratitude for their courage and sacrifice will never fade.
I write amid a time of great hardship for federal employees and contractors to say thank you for your patriotism and your service, and to offer what hope I can during this abysmal period in our country’s modern history.
A new open letter:

Suicide by firearm is the deadliest form of gun violence in America. On National Firearm Suicide Prevention Day, we raise awareness about this crisis and the work being done to empower families and communities to protect their loved ones.
Together, we can save lives.

Netanyahu is so hellbent on sabotaging peace talks designed to stop the killing and free hostages that he is now literally blowing up negotiations.
The U.S. should not support what Israel is doing. Trump is either complicit in this strike and lying, or was played for a fool.
We told the Administration to rehire the critical disaster response and preparedness staff they fired. Instead, the Administration is listing jobs demanding fealty rather than skill expertise.
The weather doesn’t care about political parties. Just rehire the staff we need already.
Trump promised that the higher costs from his tariffs would come with a tradeoff in the form of a manufacturing boom, yet manufacturing has shrunk for 6 straight months.

I completed the Appalachian Trail, and I want to ensure that future generations can also hike this beloved fixture of the American outdoors.
Our legislation would help strengthen the trail and its partnerships so that it remains the crown jewel of hiking!
Today, I joined @markwarner.bsky.social to hear from air traffic controllers, pilots, the families of those lost in the January 29th crash, and others in aviation to discuss how we can best keep travelers safe.
Every time we board a plane, we must trust in the system built to protect us.
The billionaires raking in a massive windfall from Trump’s tax cuts are thrilled, but for everyone else this economy is getting scary.
Republicans could stop this at any time by working with Democrats to stop Trump’s destructive tariffs, but they refuse.

Trump promised the higher costs from his tariffs would lead to a manufacturing boom, but with his tariffs in place we are actually *losing* manufacturing jobs at an alarming pace in 2025.
This was the whole point of Trump's tariffs, and it's backfiring.
