Hostility toward consumer protection is mind-boggling.
We’re talking about shielding people from fraud, junk fees, and financial abuse. Real people feel the consequences when we weaken these protections – and that’s who I’m fighting for.

Last night the House rejected an attempt to silence oversight of Trump’s tariffs. Congress has a constitutional duty to check the executive branch – especially when working families and small businesses are paying the price.
Lowest-ever ranking. Let that sink in.
Strong democracies depend on transparency, accountability, and the rule of law. When those foundations erode, the world notices.
Public service is a public trust and we have a lot of work to do to restore it.

Donald Trump promised to “rapidly bring down costs.” Republicans in Congress said lowering prices was their top priority.
More than a year into Trump’s second term and on thing is clear: they lied and you’re paying the price.

I’m making good on my commitment to hold Secretary Noem accountable for her careless leadership that enables ICE to terrorize communities across the country, denies due process, and threatens civil liberties for immigrants and American citizens alike.
Read my letter pressing Sec. Noem for answers:
Our communities want jobs and security, not detention centers representing the worst of humanity. This is an important step, but we must do everything we can to ensure this plan never takes hold in #MO05.

Let me be clear, Ghislaine chose to protect dangerous and powerful predators instead of paving a path toward justice for survivors.
Survivors, and the American public, deserve transparency and justice and we won’t stop until that’s achieved.
Yesterday, Ghislaine Maxwell refused to answer critical questions about Jeffrey Epstein’s network before the House Oversight Committee, instead offering only to answer questions if promised clemency from the president.
Democrats will continue to protect and expand access to the ballot box for all eligible Americans.
Democracy cannot survive by suppressing the vote.
The SAVE Act would impose unnecessary barriers to voter registration and disenfranchise eligible citizens - namely women, seniors, low-income voters, and disabled voters.

I am proud to celebrate this bipartisan win alongside my colleagues Rep. French Hill, @repmaxinewaters.bsky.social, and Rep. Mike Flood. From housing reform to strengthening community investment, bipartisan solutions are what Americans want and deserve.
Let’s keep pushing forward🤝
Yesterday’s passage of the Housing for the 21st Century Act marks a critical step forward – but make no mistake, the job is not finished. As we enter negotiations with the Senate and the President, I’ll continue to work with urgency.
Hardworking Americans deserve housing policies that actually meet the needs of today & tomorrow - not yesterday.
I’m proud to support the Housing for the 21st Century Act because it provides real solutions, expanding access to safe, affordable housing.
Let’s be clear: nationalizing elections by putting ICE or the military at polling places is about suppressing votes, not protecting elections.
This is authoritarianism and it has no place in America.

Too many Americans live paycheck to paycheck. With the cost of everyday needs skyrocketing, losing a job could upend your entire life. Services like SNAP are there to help you put food on the table and get back on your feet.
Funding for DHS expires on Friday and Republicans would rather risk shutting down critical agencies like FEMA, TSA, and the Coast Guard than work with Democrats to rein in ICE’s out-of-control brutality and lawlessness.

In their Big Ugly Bill, Republicans gave ICE a $75 billion blank check to brutalize and kill the American people while at the same time ripping away health care and nutritional assistance.
Democrats are fighting to lower your costs because hardworking families in #MO05 should not have to pay $1,426 more this year because of Trump’s tariffs and the Big Ugly Law
