Don’t have a passport? Well, it’s going to be a lot harder for you to register to vote thanks to the Republicans’ SAVE Act. This bill would make it harder for 146 million eligible voters to register to vote. Democrats are working to protect our Democracy & your access to the ballot box. Not stop it.
House Republicans just passed a disastrous budget resolution that cuts funding for critical services Americans depend on. They voted to have the largest Medicaid cut in American history and cut billions of dollars from food assistance programs that feed 1 in 5 children.
The removal of the entire LIHEAP team at HHS is deeply alarming. This program delivers essential energy assistance to our most vulnerable communities, helping millions stay safe during extreme weather.
On today’s Democratic Daily Download, @meeks.house.gov explains why the Signal chat was a threat to our national security, why Hegseth must resign and how Dems are forcing a vote to compel the Trump Administration into releasing all details surrounding the disclosure of classified info.
Cutting the jobs of 10,000 U.S. Dept. of HHS employees isn't efficient- it's irresponsible. These layoffs spell out an vast deduction in HHS personnel, closures of regional offices, and consolidations of important divisions. This reckless disregard for public health puts Americans at risk.
Pete Hegseth proved what we all already knew - he isn't qualified for this job. If any other officer texted war plans on a messaging app, they'd be fired. And now, Trump officials are lying to Congress to cover up their incompetence. When are they going to do the right thing?
We concluded Medicaid Day of Action with a press conference. In #NY05, 312,918 people on Medicaid are at risk of losing their health care. We won’t back down — we will continue to fight for the care Americans deserve!
Rep. Meng and I visited Queens Hospital Center to highlight how the Republican scam to cut Medicaid will affect everyday Americans who rely on its coverage to survive. After the hospital tour, it's clear that a cut to Medicaid would have a devastating impact on our Queens community.
I joined USPS to honor Constance Baker Motley with her own stamp. She was the first African American woman appointed to the federal judiciary, elected to the NY State Senate & the first woman to serve as the Manhattan Borough President. The stamp honors her lifelong commitment to the justice system.
Instead of focusing on solutions to improve life for the Americans, Republicans are bowing down to their 'king,' Donald Trump, allowing him to dictate their every move. We must stay focused on the issues affecting communities, like the rising cost of groceries & cut to Medicaid. youtu.be/HgtAy8Oo5WE
Someone I could always have a conversation with and discuss ways to bring vital resources back to NYC and the 5th Congressional District. She broke barriers by being the first woman to chair the House Appropriations Committee. I will always remember her as a person who brought people together.
It is with great sadness that I recognize the passing of former New York Congresswoman Nita Lowey. She was a dedicated civil servant working diligently for the benefit of the community and country. She was my dear friend.
