America’s diplomatic corps is needed now more than ever. 59 of my colleagues joined me in urging Secretary Rubio to halt FSO firings and resume the administration of FSOTs.
This relocation comes at a time when, at President Trump’s direction, NSF is reeling from mass firings of staff and clumsy grant cancellations and freezes that harm our national interests. Harming NSF’s work will directly harm people across this country. 5/
I agree that HUD employees need a facility that provides a safe environment and reflects the value of their service. As a proud Alexandrian, I'm happy to welcome federal agencies into our community, but this proposed move raises serious concerns about the future of NSF. 4/
NSF is a crown jewel of our government, driving innovation and scientific breakthroughs that are essential to America’s economy, security, and global leadership. Its public servants deserve a safe, well-maintained workplace that allows them to effectively serve the public. 3/
I will continue to do all I can to protect NSF’s legacy of scientific advancement, support its incredible staff, and ensure they have the resources they need with a minimum of disruption. That means its headquarters must remain in our community, where it belongs. 2/
Today, the Trump Administration and Governor Youngkin announced plans to relocate HUD into NSF's HQ building in Alexandria. NSF thrives in and because Northern Virginia is a robust science and technology hub. Our community remains the ideal location for its headquarters.
I offered an amendment to bar the use of funds for tactical strikes or ground operations against Iran without authorization from Congress. Republicans are blocking it from getting a vote.
Appropriations amendment offered by Mr. Beyer of Virginia that states "none of the funds made available by this Act may be used... United States military involvement in tactical strikes or on ground operations in Iran without explicit congressional authorization."
3 years ago, the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, eliminating a constitutional right women had for over 50 years. While the extreme GOP continues to seek every tool to legislate women’s bodies, Democrats are fighting to protect access to lifesaving medical care.
Sustained damage to Virginia’s economy – including this Administration’s mass firings of workers, terminations of key contracts, freezes of medical research funding, and attacks on our educational and research institutions – is bound to have an impact. 5/
Today’s data shows we are now clearly moving in the wrong direction under current leadership. These gathering economic storm clouds are unfortunate but not surprising for anyone who reads the news. 4/
Governor Youngkin inherited a strong economy rebounding from recession with growth and job gains, and a 2.7% unemployment rate that most states could only envy. To be clear, our Commonwealth is still a great place to do business, and we have much to be proud of. However - 3/
The sustained increase in Virginia’s unemployment rate is a growing concern, especially amid the uncertainty created by President Trump and Elon Musk’s indiscriminate and ill-conceived mass firings of federal workers and contractors. 2/
The man who paved over the Rose Garden is declaring open season on our national forests. This undermines decades of conservation efforts in our last untouched forests, prioritizes corporate profits over outdoor recreation, and threatens clean drinking water and wildlife habitats. We will fight this.
The Trump administration said that it would open up 58 million acres of back country in national forests to road construction and development, removing protections that had been in place for a quarter century.
