I am saddened by the passing of my colleague, Representative Doug LaMalfa. He was a dedicated advocate for the people of Northern California, and my thoughts are with his family and loved ones during this difficult time.
We have seen the devastating consequences of unauthorized wars before, and we cannot allow history to repeat itself. Congress must pass the War Powers Resolution now to re-establish its authority over military actions.
The American people did not ask for another war, and our servicemembers should not be put in harm’s way without authorization, oversight, or accountability.
Maduro is an oppressive, illegitimate ruler who has brutalized his people and dismantled democratic institutions in Venezuela. But that fact does not give any United States president the authority to unilaterally launch military action without congressional approval.
It is a true honor to represent the Fourth District in Congress. Despite the chaos and reckless policies driven by the Trump Administration and Republicans, I've stood firm for progress, justice, and democracy.
Here’s a snapshot of the work that my team and I were able to deliver in 2025 ⤵️
Happy New Year! Wishing you and your family health, happiness, and prosperity in 2026.
Happy Kwanzaa to all who are celebrating! From Umoja to Imani, may all the blessings of this holiday be yours. ❤️🖤💚
Merry Christmas! Wishing you and your family peace, joy, and love this holiday season.
Americans are paying higher energy bills while Howard Lutnick's family profits from the AI data center boom.
I'm joining @warren.senate.gov and @repdean.bsky.social to demand @commercegov.bsky.social's Inspector General investigate these blatant conflicts of interest.
I had a great discussion with Ben Winters, the Consumer Federation of America’s Director of AI and Privacy, on how Congress can develop AI policy that protects Americans.
Congress must put privacy, civil rights, and consumer safety first as AI transforms our world in real time.
Kristi Noem has a policy requiring personal approval of FEMA contracts above $100,000. She's busy overseeing inhumane ICE raids so the policy is slowing the flow of aid.
Thank you @ross.house.gov for leading this effort to get Western NC the relief they need.

The federal government owes a great debt to Native Americans and tribal communities across the country. While this recognition is important for the state of North Carolina, efforts to work with, support, and uplift tribal communities cannot stop.
I am overjoyed to see the Lumbee Tribe receive the federal tribal recognition that they have long deserved.
This bipartisan effort has taken years, but it pales in comparison to the over a century the Lumbee have been seeking reprieve.

My statement on the passing of former North Carolina Governor Jim Hunt:
Because Democrats successfully forced a vote on the House floor to extend the ACA tax credits, Speaker Johnson is now cancelling votes altogether.
@housedemocrats.bsky.social stand together in demanding that this bill be brought to the floor now before these tax credits expire in 2 weeks.
As a cosponsor of this resolution, I was proud to vote to stop Trump's war on Venezuela.
Alongside @usprogressives.bsky.social, I won’t stop pushing for the passage of this legislation to stop Trump from putting servicemembers in harm’s way.

While ICE is terrorizing communities in NC, Trump continues to bribe local police into performing ICE duties through the 287(g) program.
I introduced the PROTECT Immigration Act with @quigley.house.gov, @mcbride.house.gov, and @jayapal.house.gov to stop this program that endangers communities.

Proud to stand with my colleagues @quigley.house.gov, @mcbride.house.gov, @foushee.house.gov to put forward this common sense bill to restore trust in our communities and protect public safety.
Reposted byCongresswoman Valerie Foushee
Trump’s DHS is deputizing state and local law enforcement to target immigrants.
This means local cops spending less time, energy, and resources on crime and emergency response and more on ICE raids.
It makes all of us less safe, and I’m helping to lead legislation to stop it.
