Captain Lobach was a dedicated officer with a bright future and her service to our country will not be forgotten. I offer my heartfelt condolences to her family and all those affected by this horrible tragedy. (2/2)
The federal funding freeze leaves cutting-edge research initiatives at risk, including National Institutes of Health cancer research programs. I wrote to the President and OMB Acting Director Vaeth urging them to reverse their directives and reinstate this indispensable funding.
Trump's illegal funding freeze is a shocking attempt to steal money from hardworking, everyday Americans. I joined ABC 11 to talk more about this alarming overreach of power which will hurt North Carolinians👇 abc11.com/post/nc-agen...
I was thrilled to celebrate the launch of centralized mail delivery in the Research Triangle Park alongside @ross.house.gov, the Research Triangle Foundation and USPS. RTP is the largest research park in the nation, and mail delivery is essential to ensuring its continued growth for years to come.
#OTD 85 years ago, the first-ever #SocialSecurity check was issued. Today, Republicans are attempting to gut this critical program and slash benefits for 70 million Americans. I will keep fighting back with @housedemocrats.bsky.social to protect and enhance these benefits for all.
Trump's freeze on federal assistance will pause transportation projects, infrastructure spending, and air traffic controller hiring nationwide. I joined @transportdems.bsky.social in asking @usdot.bsky.social how they plan to implement these changes, and the effects it will have on our communities.
These reckless accusations from Trump are an irresponsible attempt to politicize a national tragedy and place blame on DEI efforts. The victims, their families, and the American people deserve real answers and real solutions from this administration to prevent future collisions.
Reporter: I’m trying to figure out how you can come to the conclusion that diversity had something to do with this crash? Trump: Because I have common sense and unfortunately a lot of people don’t
I am heartbroken by the devastating collision at Reagan National Airport last night. My thoughts are with the families of the victims during this difficult time, and I am grateful for the bravery and swift action by the first responders on the scene.
Trump's pause on Inflation Reduction Act and Bipartisan Infrastructure Law funding leaves thousands of infrastructure projects across the country in flux. I joined 153 @housedemocrats.bsky.social in asking this administration for a full list of initiatives frozen by this directive.
No one should face discrimination due to their religion, ethnicity, or national origin. That’s why I am proud to cosponsor the Neighbors Not Enemies Act which will prevent the internment and deportation of people with no due process based solely on their nationality.
Trump’s reckless pause on federal funding is an illegal and unprecedented decision which will have catastrophic effects on essential projects and services for families and communities across the country. My statement:
On International Holocaust Remembrance Day, we honor the 6 million Jewish people and countless others who were killed by the Nazi regime. We must continue our fight against antisemitism, bigotry, and hatred in all forms and ensure the horrors of the Holocaust are never forgotten.
Navigating federal agencies for passports, work authorizations, VA benefits, and more can be difficult — but my casework team is here to help! If you need assistance with federal agencies, don’t hesitate to reach out to my Durham District Office at 919-967-7924.
Trump's decision to freeze NIH communications and hiring leaves researchers in limbo, unsure if their research will continue. These indefinite delays hurt our ability to remain a global leader in scientific research and put critical projects in jeopardy. www.npr.org/sections/sho...
In his first days in office, Trump has prioritized ending birthright citizenship and demonizing immigrants over lowering costs for working families. It's a shame Republicans continue to go down this dangerous path which undermines the principles our nation was built on.
Republicans are raising a bill to criminalize providers & threaten access to life saving care. As a @demwomencaucus.bsky.social and @reprocaucus.bsky.social member, I’m voting NO on the Repro Health Care Surveillance Act because it restricts a patient’s freedom to make their own care decisions.
Overturning Roe v. Wade left millions without access to fundamental health care. Americans have the right to make decisions about their own bodies, lives, and futures. As a member of @reprocaucus.bsky.social, I will keep fighting to restore, expand, and protect reproductive freedom for all.
