House Democrats and I have been fighting for months to save ACA tax credits and stop health care costs from soaring for working families.
Today, we successfully passed legislation to do just that.
Now, the Senate must ACT!

46,000 Missourians in #MO05 have seen their health care premiums skyrocket since Republicans allowed enhanced ACA tax credits to expire at the beginning of the year.
@housedemocrats.bsky.social and I are voting today to revive these tax credits and lower costs for hardworking families.
The actions of ICE are beyond disturbing.
They are also a tragic result of the administration’s reckless, aggressive, extreme, and intentionally inflammatory mass deportation policies.
Congress must immediately initiate an investigation into this horrifying killing of a civilian.
The president wants to put our troops in danger and waste taxpayer funding to boost the profits of his Big Oil donors.
But he refuses to extend ACA tax credits that help American families afford quality health care.

Last night, I was proud to stand with lawmakers at the U.S. Capitol to honor the law enforcement officials who defended our citadel of democracy five years ago.
Today and every day, we give thanks for their service and sacrifice to the nation.
Not only are the president’s tariff taxes raising costs on everyday essentials for hardworking families, but they continue to crush American manufacturers and small businesses.
Republicans in Congress must work with Democrats to put an end to this reckless experiment.
Republican refusal to extend ACA tax credits that help working-class families afford health care is already crushing hardworking Americans across the country.
I won’t stop fighting to extend these tax credits, lower costs, and #ProtectOurCare

Today marks the fifth anniversary of the violent assault on the U.S. Capitol Building and our constitutional Republic, incited by the President of the United States in his despicable attempt to remain in power after knowingly losing a free and fair election.
My full statement:
Attacking a veteran, who spent decades serving our country, just because he spoke out against the administration is beyond shameful.
The Defense Secretary should focus on growing threats around the world, not petty politics and wrongful retribution.
Rather than foolishly threatening to attack a NATO ally by invading Greenland, the president should focus here at home on lowering costs and creating economic opportunities for American families.

To end 2025, Congress voted on a war powers resolution to prevent the president from using military action against Venezuela, risking another regime-change quagmire.
Unfortunately, 99% of Republicans voted to kill the effort.
Congress cannot allow him to drag us into more unnecessary conflicts.
Democrats have been fighting for months to extend ACA tax credits that help families afford health care.
We have successfully forced a vote to restore these tax credits and reverse the premium increases that millions of Americans are facing.
We just need a handful of Republicans to join us.
Congress returns to familiar health care stalemate

The president’s reckless decision to put our servicemembers in harm’s way by attacking a sovereign nation without a coherent rationale or approval from Congress is unconstitutional, destabilizing to the region, and deeply damaging to America’s reputation around the world.
The American people are sick and tired of the president’s reckless economic policies and refusal to provide relief to working-class families.
Democrats won’t stop fighting to address the Republican health care crisis and lower costs for hardworking families.
Americans give President Donald Trump his worst approval ratings ever for his handling of the economy, as they also express concerns about the cost of living, healthcare prices, and personal finances, according to the latest PBS News/NPR/Marist poll. https://to.pbs.org/49g3nwx
Despite a bipartisan majority in the House that supports an extension of Affordable Care Act tax credits, Republicans in Congress have allowed these benefits to expire, driving up health care costs on more than 20 million Americans.
Democrats will keep fighting to provide relief.
ACA enhanced tax credits have officially expired, meaning higher costs kick in this month for ~22 million Americans.
House is likely to pass a 3-year extension… but Senate Republicans told me before the holidays that bill will die in the Senate.

And one my highest priorities is always bringing federal funding back home to support local projects.
Whether it’s grant funding to support affordable housing developments or strengthen local health centers, I’ll always fight to ensure western Missouri receives its fair share!
Constituent services are an essential component of my work as your Representative.
From helping Missourians receive their full tax refund to assisting veterans in obtaining the benefits they have earned, my office is always available and happy to help!
As families struggle to keep up with the cost of housing, I’ve been working to enact bipartisan reforms that will lower costs for Americans nationwide.
I’m proud that 6 of my housing bills were recently passed out of committee and will receive a vote in the House.

Whether it was advancing bipartisan legislation to lower housing costs, bringing federal funding back to Missouri for local projects, or assisting Missouri families with federal agencies, I’m proud of what my office and I have accomplished for #MO05
