Congress cannot sit idle as Trump, Vought, and DOGE seek to weaponize federal agencies and turn the entire appropriations process into a rubber stamp.
Tune in now as @democrats-appropriations.house.gov fight to protect our federal workers, the American people, and Article I:

I was glad to meet Amahyree Wells, the #MD05 Black History Month Essay Contest 2025 winner.
Amahyree's writing was engaging and reflective. I commend her ability to connect racial justice & economic fairness in her essay on the impact of Black Americans in the workforce.
Congratulations, Amahyree!
Housing discrimination is one of the most significant obstacles that the disabled community faces.
We must restore funding to fair housing programs and igovernment services for people with disabilities to live with greater dignity, independence, and equality.

This month we recognize 3 years since the nationwide launch of the #988Lifeline, which has provided life-saving support & care to over 16 million Americans in crisis.
I will continue working to protect this vital resource & improve access to mental health & substance abuse services in MD & beyond.

When Donald Trump and House Republicans forced through their Big, Ugly Law, they claimed it would help American families. But gutting Medicaid is devastating to children, seniors and families. @elfreth.house.gov speaks out against the largest cut to health care in American history.
Today we mark 5 years without my friend & brother, John Lewis, amid an attack on the civil rights that he fought to secure and protect.
This poster outside of my office is a reminder to remain committed to furthering John's mission to achieve equality & justice for all by getting into #GoodTrouble.
Making Americans' commutes faster, cheaper, safer, and sustainable shouldn't come at the expense of their housing or essential needs.
Watch @democrats-appropriations.house.gov ensure we have the tools to make affordable housing and efficient transportation accessible for all.
Great to meet with Ambassador of the EU to the United States Jovita Neliupšienė & discuss our shared values of freedom & democracy globally.
I look forward to our work together to ensure Ukraine continues to receive the support it needs to win this war & to strengthen the U.S. and EU's partnership.
In honor of the #ADA's 35th anniversary, I'm proud to host a screening and panel on 'Change, Not Charity: The Americans with Disabilities Act', which captures our fight to ensure every aspect of American life is accessible to all.
Tune in at 6:00 tonight:

@repbillfoster.bsky.social sounds the alarm on Trump’s attacks on science, from slashing research funding to firing our nation's top scientists and engineers. House Democrats are fighting back to protect America’s scientific leadership and keep us moving forward—not backward.
My full statement on the passing of my dear friend and District Director, Terrance Taylor:

Too many Marylanders are waiting too long for their tax returns. This lag comes after Trump fired thousands of federal employees who process those returns.
Team Maryland and I call on the IRS to work more efficiently: hoyer.house.gov/media/press-...

Despite their academic & professional qualifications, Black women are consistently underpaid & undervalued in the workplace. On #BlackWomensEqualPayDay & every day I'm committed to supporting policies that address the racial & gender wage gap & reinforce pay equity laws to achieve equal pay for all.
Republicans' attack on Medicaid will cause hospitals nationwide to lose $24B annually, forcing thousands of hospitals – including many in Maryland – to cut critical services.
Democrats will keep fighting against these cuts for all Americans to have reliable access to health care.
The Chesapeake Bay is the beating heart of Maryland, but invasive Blue Catfish threaten its ecosystems and the communities it sustains.
I'm proud to join @elfreth.house.gov to introduce the MAWS Act to protect the ecology and economy of our beloved watershed.
I am deeply saddened by the loss of life and devastation caused by the flooding in Texas.
I thank the first responders who are working to rescue and recover Texans. I share my condolences with the victims' families, and my prayers are with the communities impacted by the floods.
As I reflect on the recent attacks on key components of our democracy, I remain grateful to have the privilege of ensuring our nation honors the Constitution's founding principles of liberty and justice for all. Today and every day, I'm proud to be American.
Happy Independence Day!

For 8+ hours, @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social spoke to keep Republicans from jamming Trump's One Big, Ugly Bill through in the dead of night—forcing them to cast their votes in the light of day.
House Democrats’ commitment remains: We’ll keep pressing on for the American people, until victory is won.
Today, House Republicans passed abhorrent legislation that will make millions of Americans more poor, hungry, and unhealthy, all to give tax cuts to the already wealthy.
The American people will remember this betrayal – and how each Member voted. What a sad day.
Trump's promises remain unfulfilled, yet he wants working Americans to pick up the tab for his Big, Ugly Bill's $3.4 trillion price tag.
We cannot allow this partisan legislation to saddle future generations with trillions in debt and continue rattling confidence in our economy.
