This #ImmigrantHeritageMonth, we honor those who left their homes and all they knew in the search for a better life, and in #TX07, we celebrate the growing number who chose Houston as the place to do it.
From culture and community to our economy, immigrants make Houston a wonderful place to live.

President Trump finally asked Congress to take back the funding Congress provided for agencies Congress established, on a bipartisan basis, that he has withheld. It's a question of what we value and whether people can count on us. Republicans voted yes. I voted no. ➡️
The unprecedented detention of a U.S. Senator attempting to perform his oversight duties is not normal, not democratic, and not acceptable. Every member of Congress—Republican and Democrat alike—must speak out against this abuse and assault on our Congress and our Constitution.
Proposed cuts to the Department of Energy's research budget create uncertainty for people in #TX07 who are working on innovative energy projects—and for every Texan who is hoping for improvements to our energy infrastructure to withstand extreme weather events.
Today, our Energy subcommittee will question Energy Secretary Chris Wright about the proposed budget for DOE, which just last month canceled billions in grants for groundbreaking energy projects in Texas.
Follow along here ⬇️
Next Friday, June 13, our Team #TX07 constituent advocates will be at the Tracy Gee Community Center to help answer your questions regarding federal agencies, like Social Security and the IRS.

It's not just the NWS local forecast offices, the Trump administration's staffing cuts have slashed the number of meteorologists at more than half of our air route traffic control centers nationwide. In Houston, we are down to 2.
That's why I sent a letter to NOAA demanding answers and change.
This heartbreaking story is the direct consequence of Texas' cruel abortion ban.
But now the the Trump administration is making things worse by revoking guidance that the Biden administration put in place requiring hospitals to provide abortion care in medical emergencies.

On today's Democratic Daily Download, @equality.house.gov Chair @repmarktakano.bsky.social celebrates Pride Month! House Democrats will never stop fighting for freedom and equality for all Americans.
The Title X family planning program was born in #TX07, introduced by then-Congressman George H.W. Bush.
The Trump administration has frozen Title X funding and proposed that Congress cut it, but I'm working with @chu.house.gov and @davids.house.gov to fund and grow the program.

In addition to taking away health care from millions of Americans, the Republican budget bill also imposes a tax increase on schools like Rice University in #TX07. Targeting academic institutions, research, and the ecosystem that has led the world for decades is the wrong approach for our future.
It can be hard to sift through the details of the more than 1,000 page Republican budget bill. This article has a helpful, easy to read chart that illustrates the bill’s devastating consequences, including billions of dollars in cuts to Americans’ health care and food assistance.

On top of massive cuts to health care and food assistance, Republicans hid several provisions in their tax scam that will spell disaster for working families.
In today’s Democratic Daily Download, @salinas.house.gov breaks down what the GOP doesn’t want you to know about their reckless bill.
Thousands of lawful residents from Venezuela in Houston cannot and should not have to return home at this time. This decision is troubling for this and other communities in #TX07. Americans support and must defend TPS. apnews.com/article/supr...

This week, Republicans tried to jam through their tax scam in the dead of night. Democrats fought back to expose this bill's cuts to Medicaid and SNAP.
In today’s Democratic Daily Download, @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social explains how we will keep standing up for hardworking American taxpayers.
The challenge of today is whether we will protect and build on this American progress and build a path to prosperity for all. [2/2]
#OTD in 1964, President Lyndon Johnson outlined his vision for the Great Society:
"The challenge of the next half century is whether we have the wisdom to use [our] wealth to enrich and elevate our national life, and to advance the quality of our American civilization." [1/2]
