I'm committed to a total stock trading ban that will help restore faith in our government. Members of Congress, the President, Vice President, members of the cabinet and the Supreme Court should not be allowed to trade individual stocks.

Once again President Trump is weaponizing the DOJ to serve his own personal interests. An independent Federal Reserve is critical to safeguarding our economy, we cannot allow Trump's corrupt abuse of power to put that at risk.

Fed Chair Powell says he's under criminal investigation, won't bow to Trump intimidation

President Donald Trump has criticized Federal Reserve chief Jerome Powell for not cutting interest rates as much and as quickly as the president wants.

The President wishes he had used the military to overturn an election? This is chilling. That’s not leadership. That’s authoritarianism. I’m outraged and saddened. This is another corrupt admission that cannot be overlooked.

The Voting Rights Act has been reauthorized under Republican and Democratic presidents and Congresses, until now. Now, it's under attack by the Trump administration, and when Americans have their rights constrained, we don't have a democracy anymore.

It demands answers, accountability, and immediate corrective action. DHS must ensure that no other family endures a loss like this.

The rapid expansion of Immigration and Customs Enforcement operations has led to a reckless disregard for public safety. The killing of Renee Nicole Good is a heartbreaking tragedy that demands more than statements of regret.

I authored a letter to Secretary Noem demanding the department take responsibility for the tragedy in Minnesota and work to restore the trust of the American People.

Honesty and transparency should not be too much to ask for from the President of the United States.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govJan 9(source)

Grateful to be joined in this effort by @pelosi.house.gov and @pettersen.house.gov. This action is reckless, unjustified, and profoundly harmful, placing millions of children, working parents, and financially stressed families at immediate risk. Read more:

I authored a letter to @hhsofficial.bsky.social Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr, demanding the release of nearly $10 billion in frozen funding for childcare & family support programs. Congress appropriated these funds to support children and families, not to be withheld as political retribution.

I joined my colleagues in a letter to the Department of Health and Human Services demanding they reinstate the previous childhood immunization schedule to protect the health and wellbeing of our children. Read the full letter:

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govJan 9(source)

We need to listen to science and respect the long-standing decisions of public health experts. When vaccination rates fall, we're all at risk, and our most vulnerable rely on those around them to be vaccinated.

Trump, RFK dramatically overhaul child vaccine schedule

The move is a public health gamble that assumes children's health won't be endangered.

Today, House Democrats passed an extension of Affordable Care Act tax credits that help working families afford care. This is a big victory for the American people, now it's time for the Senate to act.

Steny Hoyer has spent his career strengthening our democracy and delivering for working families. His leadership helped define an era in Congress. His legacy will endure long after his retirement. I’m profoundly grateful for his service and friendship.
