My amendment ensures NOAA consults with employees and their representatives during modernization, restoring their voice after recent admin actions, while strengthening the nation’s emergency alert system that keeps Americans safe.
Today, I joined @housedemocrats.bsky.social in launching a discharge petition to force a vote on funding DHS programs that actually protect our country—like TSA and FEMA—while refusing to bankroll this administration’s extreme mass deportation machine.
Speaker Johnson finally hung the plaque honoring officers who defended our democracy on January 6, over 5 years after the insurrection. While Republicans hide this piece of history in the basement of the Capitol, I'll always fight to ensure that we remember and learn from our nation's darkest days.
The American people have lost their trust in the U.S. Attorney General and her office. Survivors of Jeffrey Epstein’s abuse––as well as Renée Nicole Good, Alex Pretti, and their families––deserve justice, and the American people deserve better.
Attorney General Bondi’s duty is to the Constitution, not a corrupt regime. Instead, she has failed to protect civil and human rights while using the Department of Justice to create even more barriers to equal justice.
This Administration’s crusade against the EPA Office of Research and Development helps big businesses get richer and puts communities at risk while demonizing the critical work of so many researchers in the Fourth District.
In Congress, I am proud to be a cosponsor of the @repchrispappas.bsky.social's Respect for Local Communities Act to require DHS to receive written approval from state and local officials before constructing any ICE processing facilities or detention centers.
Trump’s decision to shutter the EPA Office of Research and Development will make the American people sicker and poorer as polluters get richer.  Congresswoman Valerie Foushee and I are leading 116 House Democrats calling for the restoration of this independent, lifesaving research office.
I am also alarmed by attempts to weaponize this attack against individuals across the political spectrum. More than ever, now is the time to stand united with Jewish Americans and reject all forms of division. We must move forward with unity and take steps to root out hate from our society.
This is yet another demonstration of the rising hate, antisemitism, and violence in our country today—it must end immediately. Discrimination has no place in our society, and Congress cannot continue to turn a blind eye.
I am appalled by the abhorrent antisemitic terror attack at a synagogue in Michigan yesterday. My thoughts are with those who were injured in the attack, and Jewish Americans across the country during this difficult time.
