I had a wonderful time fellowshipping with ministers and community leaders in Rockaway to discuss the impacts of the horrific Republican budget cuts to Medicaid, SNAP, and other essential services that families rely on. I always appreciate them for their leadership and time.

This week, Republicans tried to jam through their tax scam in the dead of night. Democrats fought back to expose this bill's cuts to Medicaid and SNAP. In today’s Democratic Daily Download, @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social explains how we will keep standing up for hardworking American taxpayers.

Trump doesn’t have the authority to dismantle the Department of Education and abruptly fire federal employees. I applaud the court’s decision to block this executive order. Democrats will continue to fight these flagrant attacks on education. t.co/jiHFeWRLLR

House Republicans pass ‘big, beautiful bill’ after weeks of division

The sweeping measure heads to the Senate, where Republicans are expected to make changes.

Rep. Gregory Meeks@meeks.house.govMay 22(source)

House Republicans just betrayed the American people by bowing down to Trump. This is the largest cut to SNAP & Medicaid in U.S. HISTORY.   Republicans have shown us who they are and what they value. House Democrats stood unified against this bill and will continue to fight against GOP Tax Scam.

🏛️ Here in Congress, like the @nba.com, teamwork makes the DREAM work. Tonight, the NY Knicks will tip-off the Eastern Conference Finals against the Indiana Pacers. Wishing a safe, competitive, & exciting round of basketball for both teams — especially my Knicks! 💪🏾 www.youtube.com/shorts/6hP0N...

At 1 AM, House Republicans tried jamming through their “Big, Beautiful Bill” while Americans slept. We're now 13+ hours deep in Rules Committee — still fighting! They want to play games? Well Democrats brought the coffee, the conviction, and the Constitution.

Rep. Gregory Meeks@meeks.house.govMay 21(source)

I'm saddened to learn of the passing of RM @GerryConnolly. His lifelong dedication to public service and the people of #VA11 will not be forgotten. My deepest condolences go out to his family, staff and all who were touched by his leadership. May he rest in peace.

Rep. Gregory Meeks@meeks.house.govMay 20(source)

My Democratic colleagues and I stand with Rep. LaMonica McIver as she faces baseless charges for doing her job — being a check on the Trump Administration. We won’t be intimidated. We’ll keep fighting.

Rep. Gregory Meeks@meeks.house.govMay 19(source)

The Supreme Court just allowed the Trump administration to end TPS for 350,000 Venezuelans—people with legal status who work, pay taxes, and contribute to the economy. Ending their protections goes against Trump’s own claim to only target “criminals,” not families.

Rep. Gregory Meeks@meeks.house.govMay 19(source)

Remember when Republicans said late-night sessions were “not what the country needs or deserves” during the American Rescue Plan? Now they’re getting ready to make dramatic cuts to Medicaid and SNAP so they can give tax breaks for billionaires - in the dead of night. Hypocrisy on full display.

Rep. Gregory Meeks@meeks.house.govMay 19(source)

My prayers are with President Joe Biden and the entire Biden family during this difficult time. I know that he will battle this cancer diagnosis with strength and determination as shown throughout his career in public service. I'm wishing him the best during his health journey.

Rep. Gregory Meeks@meeks.house.govMay 16(source)

The Republican budget scam will make the largest cut to Medicaid in American history. They are playing politics - gambling with people's health coverage in order to give tax breaks to billionaires. Everyday people will die because of it. youtu.be/eaCuPQS433g

I was pleased to learn about the safe return of Israeli-American hostage Edan Alexander to his family. After all he's endured may he begin his journey of healing and peace. www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcn...

Hamas releases American-Israeli hostage Edan Alexander

The release came the day before President Donald Trump is set to travel to the Middle East in a trip that is expected to intensify ceasefire efforts.

Happy Mother's Day! I want to extend my gratitude to my wonderful wife, my daughters as well as to all of the mothers in #NY05 and across the country. I hope you have a beautiful day spent with loved ones.

Rep. Gregory Meeks@meeks.house.govMay 10(source)

Members of Congress have every right to exercise their constitutional oversight authority. We must be a check on the Trump Administration’s lawlessness, failure to uphold due process protections, and abuse of executive power.

I had the pleasure of meeting with Kew Gardens Civic Association. We talked about how House Democrats are fighting in Washington, D.C., to save vital services for residents.

Rep. Gregory Meeks@meeks.house.govMay 8(source)

While Trump releases domestic terrorists who brutalized police officers on January 6th, he’s sending migrants to violent foreign prisons without due process for the crime of pursuing the American dream. This is far from law and order just more Trump chaos. www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-a...

Trump administration may soon deport migrants to Libya, U.S. officials say

The deportations, expected to be operated by the U.S. military, could start as early as this week, two U.S. officials told CBS News.

Rep. Gregory Meeks@meeks.house.govMay 8(source)

This is another glaring example that they’d rather focus on unserious bills than do the job their constituents sent them here to do.

Rep. Gregory Meeks@meeks.house.govMay 8(source)

Republicans have the majority and dictate what bills Congress votes on. Instead of improving the lives of hardworking Americans, they've prioritized renaming the Gulf of Mexico. Not lowering costs, not protecting healthcare, not helping working families.
