I voted YES on a War Powers Resolution that would end Trump's illegal war in Iran. It is time to bring our service members home.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govJun 3(source)

We are witnessing a level of self-enrichment by a president that has never been seen before. Our number one focus right now needs to be on getting relief to American families who continue to face rising costs. They deserve better.

Trump’s financial ties face scrutiny after moves benefiting allies and family

President Donald Trump has found multiple ways to harness the presidency to benefit himself. His Justice Department agreed to a $1.776 billion fund that could benefit his allies and guard against futu...

LIVE NOW: my colleagues and I on the Appropriations Committee are marking up the Interior and Transportation-HUD funding bills. Republican proposals would cut investments in affordable housing, infrastructure, and programs that help lower costs for working families. We're fighting back:

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govJun 3(source)

Bill Pulte is wholly unqualified to serve as the Director of National Intelligence. The Intelligence Community must support election administrators and defend our election critical infrastructure. It cannot be led by a corrupt yes-man devoted to Trump’s personal vengeance agenda.

Trump taps housing regulator turned MAGA enforcer as intelligence chief

Pulte became an unlikely figure of Trump's campaign of political combat.

Russia has once again carried out a massive, deadly attack on innocent civilians in Ukraine. The world must continue to support the Ukrainian people and provide Ukraine with all necessary military equipment, as it defends itself against this brutal aggression.

After an Agonizing Week of Threats, Kyiv Is Finally Bombarded by Russia

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govJun 2(source)

Through this work, we are deepening our understanding of both our world and the universe beyond it.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govJun 2(source)

Great to have @mcbride.house.gov join me for a tour of L3 Harris to learn about their cutting-edge optics work for missions like the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope and the James Webb Space Telescope.

Families are struggling to make it from paycheck to paycheck, but Trump is using taxpayer dollars to enrich himself, his family, and his allies, all while Acting AG Todd Blanche enables him. Watch here as my colleagues and I on the House Appropriations Committee demand answers:

My mother had more reproductive rights than my grandchildren have, and that's hard to wrap your head around. We can't stop fighting to protect the rights we may have once taken for granted.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govJun 1(source)

Here in Rochester, the home of Frederick Douglass and Susan B. Anthony, we've been in the fight for the right to vote for a long time. To find we are back in a place where those rights are being attacked is unimaginable.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govJun 1(source)

Excited to welcome Allison Hinman as the new President of the Susan B. Anthony Museum & House! We met to discuss expansion plans and the importance of preserving and sharing Susan B. Anthony's legacy with future generations.

Happy Pride Month! This month, we celebrate the LGBTQ+ community, honor the progress we've made, and recommit to the work ahead as we strive for a more inclusive future for everyone. To our LGBTQ+ community: we see you, we support you, and we stand with you.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govMay 31(source)

We cannot unilaterally disarm while states across the country are enacting hyper-partisan redistricting at Donald Trump's request. We have to fight back.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govMay 30(source)

The Trump Administration's immigration claims are nothing but a lie. They are not going after the “worst of the worst,” and they know it. They're going after people who are simply trying to chase the American dream because it serves them politically.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govMay 29(source)

Glad to be with the community at Cloverwood Senior Living to discuss the challenges older Americans face—from protecting Social Security and Medicare to lowering health care and prescription drug costs. Our seniors deserve dignity, security, and support in every stage of life.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govMay 29(source)

Americans work too hard for their money to see it handed out to Donald Trump's political allies. Today's ruling is a win for taxpayers and a reminder that no one is above the law. Thanks to @DemocracyForward.org and @CommonCause.org for taking this fight to court!

Judge halts Trump ‘anti-weaponization’ fund after Jan. 6 prosecutor sues

Jan. 6 prosecutor Andrew Floyd and other targets of the Trump administration had sued to block what critics had described as a “slush fund” for Trump allies.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govMay 29(source)

Omar Ramos Jimenez has lived in Rochester for 30 years, paid his taxes, started a small business, and been active in his community. The notion he is somehow a flight risk, which is why he's been detained, is outrageous. He just wants to be home, in Rochester, with his family.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govMay 28(source)

Corruption runs rampant in the Trump Administration, and it's reprehensible. Congress must step in, Donald Trump must be stopped.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govMay 28(source)

I met with leaders from the Rochester Black Nurses Association to discuss the importance of expanding access to quality health care, supporting the next generation of nurses, and improving health outcomes across our community. Grateful for their advocacy, leadership, and commitment to care.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govMay 27(source)

She is exactly the kind of person any of us should value as a neighbor. I am relieved a federal judge ordered ICE to return her to New York, where our community can continue to advocate for her.
