🚨House Democrats passed a bill to extend ACA tax credits for 3 years—restoring relief the GOP let expire & protecting 81,000 people in TN9 from higher costs.
As @pelosi.house.gov said, Democrats worked for months to force this vote. The Senate needs to act immediately so people don't lose coverage.

On the House floor today, I stood with my friend Gabby Giffords on the anniversary of the 2011 shooting she survived. I’ve spent years working to curb gun violence — earning an F rating from the NRA, which I take as a great honor. Gabby’s courage is a constant reminder of why this fight matters.
Calling this “domestic terrorism” was a lie.
An ICE operation ended with a woman shot and killed, and the President and his team immediately made things up to try and justify it.
I taught police law. This shooting was unjustified.
ICE’s training and tactics are reckless — this is the result.
I voted last night to force action on ACA tax credits after the GOP let them expire, raising health care costs with no plan to help Americans.
81,000 people in Memphis and TN-9 depend on these credits to afford coverage—I'll keep pushing to finish the job, and to make them permanent.
Just unbelievable,what ice agent did in shooting that woman in the face when he was not in danger and she was not doing anything where an officer should use deadly force.
Rules for cops:Never shoot at a moving car. Never shoot unless your life or someone else's life is endangered
Not self defense!
Here’s the video in case there was any doubt of what happened, including the masked face of the shooter. contrary to claims, the woman was the one trying to defend herself by driving away from ICE that was trying to enter her car

Deeply disturbing reports out of Minnesota. My full statement here.
January 6 will always be a day that lives in infamy.
I was there. I watched Capitol Police lock the doors, draw their weapons and help Members get gas masks on as a violent mob stormed the Capitol at the direction of a sitting president.
It was an attack on our democracy—we should never forget it.
January 6 had many heroes — Capitol Police, MPD, and the National Guard who defended our democracy. Special Counsel Jack Smith is a hero too. He followed the facts, applied the law, and held Donald Trump accountable for trying to overturn an election. That’s the rule of law. That's courage.
Attending hearing on J6-second only to the Civil War-as an attack on our democracy and Constitution. I was in the gallery of House and will never forget and will forever remind people of this Trump attack on America.
Ecstatic to see my former intern Calvin Austin III catch the last TD of the 2025 season and take his team to the playoffs.
Perfect intern and a great guy — smart, talented, humble, and always gracious.
If you notice your health insurance costs jump this month, remember why: because the GOP let ACA tax credits expire.
That was a choice.
Republicans found time for lots of political distractions—even for war in Venezuela—but not for lowering your costs. You’re paying more because of them.

No one has shared info with intelligence committee nor do I believe any committee and maybe not even gang of 8. Trump follows rule better to ask for forgiveness than for permission.
He wants Venezuelan oil. He’s not making any friends in the Caribbean. Only friends are Putin,Netanyahu,&Middle East
Maduro is an illegitimate dictator. But even removing a brutal regime doesn't justify violating the Constitution by engaging in an act of war without Congressional authorization—or acting without a clear plan for what comes next.
The US has paid a heavy price for this kind of thinking before.

I joined Jim Sciutto on CNN to talk about the Trump administration’s actions involving Venezuela — which they've carried out with zero briefings to Congress — and to share my perspective as a member of the House Intelligence Committee. Watch here:
