No one should see their health insurance premium double overnight. I'm working to restore Medicaid and health insurance funding that Republicans cut and oppose. Everyone should be able access to the healthcare they deserve.

Congresswoman Valerie Foushee@foushee.house.govOct 2(source)

REMINDER: Trump and Republicans are fighting for record cuts to healthcare to fund his Big, Ugly Billionaire Tax Break. There’s nothing ‘clean’ about over 56,000 people in my district seeing their healthcare coasts soar.

How Will the 2025 Reconciliation Law Affect the Uninsured Rate in Each State? | KFF

Let’s be clear: undocumented immigrants aren't covered by the ACA or Medicaid—period. We want to protect American’s healthcare after Republicans voted to strip over 10 million people of their healthcare in the Big, Ugly Bill.

Congresswoman Valerie Foushee@foushee.house.govOct 2(source)

Republicans are putting the healthcare of millions of Americans at risk. This shutdown isn’t about politics. It’s about seniors being able to pay for their prescriptions, parents being able to take their kids to the doctor, and helping small businesses thrive.

Congresswoman Valerie Foushee@foushee.house.govOct 1(source)

Wishing all those observing in #NC04 and across the world a meaningful Yom Kippur. G'mar Chatima Tovah!

J.D. Vance thinks whether Americans can go to the hospital or not is a ‘policy disagreement’. Shameful.

I have asked the U.S. House to withhold my pay during this government shutdown. Federal workers across the nation will suffer from this shutdown forced by the President and the GOP's Congressional majorities—and if they can't get paid, neither should members of Congress.

Congresswoman Valerie Foushee@foushee.house.govOct 1(source)

During this government shutdown, don’t forget that my office is still here to help. #NC04 residents should visit Foushee.house.gov or call 919-967-7924 for assistance. For information on how federal services and agencies will be impacted, visit: foushee.house.gov/shutdown

This morning, the GOP shut down the government in an attempt to force record cuts to federal healthcare programs. Alongside @housedemocrats.bsky.social, I am ready to work across the aisle, but Republicans would rather hurt American families than back off these harmful cuts. My statement:

Congresswoman Valerie Foushee@foushee.house.govSep 30(source)

The government shuts down at midnight. House Democrats are in DC fighting to keep it open and lower health care costs, but Republicans refuse to even show up to negotiate. They would rather shut down the government than address the health care crisis they have inflicted on the American people.

Reps. Foushee, Beyer, Frost Introduce Legislation to Expand Critical Research on Gun Safety and Prevention | U.S. Congresswoman Valerie Foushee

Congresswoman Valerie Foushee@foushee.house.govSep 30(source)

Gun violence is a public health crisis. Today, I introduced the National Gun Violence Research Act with @beyer.house.gov and @frost.house.gov to fund research, expand training, and improve federal coordination to turn data into lifesaving policies and solutions.

Congresswoman Valerie Foushee@foushee.house.govSep 30(source)

I’m heartbroken over the horrific act of violence at a Michigan church & the mass shooting in Southport, NC this weekend. My heart is with the victims, their families & communities. Americans deserve to feel safe. Congress must pass gun reforms that will save lives & make our communities safer.

Congresswoman Valerie Foushee@foushee.house.govSep 24(source)

Government funding runs out on September 30. Democrats are ready to negotiate to keep the government open and lower costs, but Republicans canceled votes and Trump walked away from bipartisan talks. If the government shuts down, Trump and Republicans have only themselves to blame.

Congresswoman Valerie Foushee@foushee.house.govSep 24(source)

Violence is never the answer. Everyone deserves to be treated with dignity and humanity, no matter who they are or where they come from.

Congresswoman Valerie Foushee@foushee.house.govSep 24(source)

I’m deeply alarmed by this morning’s shooting at the ICE facility in Dallas and am monitoring the situation closely. My prayers are with the victims and their families affected by this senseless act.

Trump Always Chickens Out. Donald Trump just cancelled a high stakes meeting in the Oval Office with myself and Leader Schumer. The extremists want to shut down the government because they are unwilling to address the Republican healthcare crisis that is devastating America. Hold the line.
