4. Duffy deflects to funding for USMMA to fix water pipes and other critical needs, which I support - but apparently Duffy does not. The Trump administration just proposed a budget slashing $33M from the USMMA budget.

3. Duffy claims he “brought Jesus up from the basement” implying the Biden administration had rolled the painting up and hidden it away. In fact, it was carefully restored by Duffy’s predecessor Pete Buttigieg (a devout Christian) and was being displayed in the USMMA Chapel (its original home).
He is wrong. The Establishment Clause prohibits government favoring or endorsing any religion.
2. Duffy claims the painting is “historic” and should therefore be displayed in the disciplinary hearing room. But the painting was originally hung in the USMMA Chapel.
1. Duffy depicts the 1st Amendment as a one-way pass for him to officially elevate symbols of his Christian faith in a public hearing room with no consideration for other faith perspectives – “we have freedom of religion, not freedom from religion.”
Today, I asked Secretary Duffy about the 1st Amendment implications of him prominently displaying a religious painting in the disciplinary hearing room of the Merchant Marine Academy. A wild ride ensued with Duffy flagrantly “bearing false witness,” to put it biblically.
Let’s break it down.
All over the country, Americans are facing the economic impacts of Trump’s One Big, Ugly Law — from higher health care costs to rising utility bills to paying more at the grocery store.
And I am determined to hold the Republicans who voted for this disastrous bill accountable.
It was great to attend the World's Largest Salmon BBQ in Fort Bragg over the weekend, chat with constituents, and work to benefit the Salmon Restoration Association! Working toward a sustainable future for salmon and our communities remains a top priority.
Trump has fired thousands of federal workers that keep our national parks running, our economy afloat, and our communities safe. And now, the Supreme Court has paved the way for even more of these nonsensical cuts. It’s despicable, and I will remain steadfast in fighting back.
Because of Trump's incompetent and careless budget cuts, national parks are understaffed during peak travel season. From the rangers who rescue stranded hikers to the law enforcement officers who keep families safe, lives could be put in danger as a result of this recklessness.
It's been 4 days since House Republicans passed the most damaging budget bill in recent history.
I'm appalled by their willingness to sell out the American people, and we're already pushing back in every way we can to hold them accountable for their incompetence and cruelty.
My statement on the House passing President Trump’s Big, Ugly Bill:
Trump’s Big, Ugly Bill:
🏥 Kicks 17 million people off their health care
🍽️ Takes away food assistance from 5 million people
💸 Adds $4 trillion to the national debt
He's not just ignoring what Americans need right now, but he's making things worse. It's unconscionable.
In our district alone, Republicans’ disastrous bill will cut over 5000 jobs, rob food assistance from over 10,000 children, and increase health care premiums by over $3000 for those covered by the Affordable Care Act.
This bill is an undeniable betrayal of the American people.
Right now, Republicans are wasting our time trying to eliminate OSHA, the agency that ensures safe and healthy working conditions for workers across America. On #TheFlipSide, Democrats are fighting to protect and expand workers’ safety.
This decision undermines educators and sends a damaging message to LGBTQ+ students that their experiences and stories are inferior.
Public schools should be places for students to learn diverse perspectives – they should not be subject to parents' religious preferences.
Republicans’ latest school vouchers policy was pulled from the Big Ugly bill.
It would drain public resources to fund private & religious schools that aren't held to the same standards.
We’ll keep fighting these proposals that violate the religious freedom of every taxpayer.
My statement on the U.S. Supreme Court ruling to limit the use of nationwide injunctions:
No better day to celebrate Pride than the 10th anniversary of same-sex marriage in this country.
I'm proud to hang this flag in front of my office year round and continue the fight for equality rights and stand firm against discrimination and hate. Happy Pride to all!
Cyanide bombs have proven to be deadly for families, pets, and wildlife – regardless of their intended target – and have no business being on our public lands.
My bill with Representative Cohen and Senator Merkley will help ensure this unnecessary use of hazardous devices comes to an end.
(3/3) I strongly oppose this ruling. House Democrats will continue pushing back against these damaging decisions and standing up for all Americans’ access to high-quality, affordable health care.
