Americans in need of vital medical treatment will suffer because the Trump Administration is throwing away years of research, millions of dollars, and expert personnel. We can't allow this administration to stop our scientists and doctors from doing this life saving work.

At the House Science Committee Democrats' event "The Things We'll Never Know: A Science Fair of Canceled Grants" we learned, straight from the researchers who've had their grants canceled by the Trump Administration, what we stand to lose when science is politicized.

On January 6th, brave officers responded to defend our democracy. Congress commissioned a plaque to honor them, but Republicans are still ignoring the deadline to install it. They refuse to do the bare minimum to recognize this heroic sacrifice.
These officers deserve better.
Spamming our allies with ransom demands that will again create uncertainty.
Clearly nobody - including Trump's top advisers or even the wildly incoherent President himself - knows what Trump will do at this point, but if he imposes these tariffs Americans will pay the cost.

Here's how you can help those impacted by the catastrophic flooding in Texas Hill Country, along with safety tips for dealing with flood warnings and what to do when you encounter flood waters.
This is devastating news. I’m heartbroken for all those impacted by this tragic flooding and continue to keep Central Texas in my thoughts.
I'm deeply grateful to our first responders and everyone helping amid this catastrophic disaster.

Happy Independence Day! Now more than ever we need to celebrate the incredible feat that is our democracy and stand up to defend it from all who seek to destroy it.

Once again we are here in the dead of night, to debate and vote on Republicans’ bill that takes food and health care from those who need them to shower tax cuts on billionaires.
Given a short time to talk, I used it to cast our moral choice in terms my Republican colleagues in the room would hear.

Every single House Democrat will stand up for the American people.
We just need four Republicans to join us.

Just took to the House Floor to speak in support of a country where everyone can afford to live the good life.
And in strong opposition to Trump’s One Big Ugly Bill that is devastating to everyday Americans.
We will not be silenced.

Once again we are here in the dead of night, to debate and vote on Republicans’ bill that takes food and health care from those who need them to shower tax cuts on billionaires.
Given a short time to talk, I used it to cast our moral choice in terms my Republican colleagues in the room would hear.
Republicans know their bill is bad and will harm millions of Americans by kicking them off their health care, and gutting their food assistance.
We just need 4 of my Republicans colleagues to care enough about the American people to kill this horrific bill.
SNAP helps 42 million Americans at or below the poverty line afford groceries every month, but under Trump’s One Big Ugly Bill this food assistance risks being taken away or reduced.
Children would go hungry to pay for tax cuts for billionaires. It’s dangerous and immoral.
This Big Ugly Bill multiplies ICE's budget by over 20 times, giving ICE about as much money as the Marine Corps to supercharge their rogue, authoritarian MAGA police state tactics at an unprecedented scale.
It's heinous and I will be voting against it.
"Trump's tax and spending bill could add hundreds of dollars onto yearly household energy costs for Americans across the country."

Donald Trump’s One Big Ugly Bill would be a disaster for American health care. People will get sicker, people will go into medical debt, and people will die.
I will be voting NO.
House Democrats are united and standing together against the Big Ugly Bill.
Senate Republicans just passed the Big Ugly Bill, which contains
- Massive tax cuts for billionaires
- Tax hikes for working Americans
- 17 million lose health care
- The biggest cuts to Medicaid and SNAP ever
- Higher energy costs
- Trillions in debt
It comes to the House now. We will fight this.
"Tax cuts in House Republicans’ megabill would lead to increased assets for the richest Americans, while reducing them for the lowest-income households through cuts to federal spending on Medicaid and food aid."

Donald Trump promised to make it easier, not harder, for parents to afford the basics, but his tariffs are making life much more expensive for American families. New parents are now paying 24% more for essentials like strollers, cribs, and car seats.
