Once again, House Republicans are rubber-stamping reckless and cruel spending cuts that will have a direct impact on communities like ours.

Ripping away free educational resources like Sesame Street does nothing to improve the lives of our children and does not move us any closer to solving the real challenges our families face. My Republican colleagues need to stop bending the knee to Donald Trump and start standing up and standing with Democrats to protect the programs, resources, and fundamental rights Americans rely on.

Today marks five years since we lost a good friend and incredible advocate for the American people, Congressman John Lewis. We honor his memory by continuing the fight he and so many others have bravely fought to ensure every eligible American voter's access to the ballot box.

Everyone deserves the American Dream.

As the Founder and Co-Chair of the Optics and Photonics Caucus, I’m proud to continue advocating for increased government investment in quantum. It is Congress’ responsibility to work across the aisle to maintain America’s leadership in this space.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govJul 17(source)

Thank you to all the quantum-based companies and innovators who visited Capitol Hill today! These technologies are the future of advancements in communication, computing, sensing, and much more, and it was great to see all the impressive instruments on display.

I met with Secure Families to discuss how we can help military families better access the ballot box. As leader of the House Administration Committee, I've worked with them in the past & will continue to do so—our military families deserve to have their voices heard as they fight for our safety.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govJul 16(source)

Refusing to answer basic questions is not leadership—it's a betrayal of public trust. The American people have a right to know how their president and cabinet are wielding power.

Glad to welcome members of the Brewers Association in D.C. today to discuss the vital role small and independent breweries play in our economy and communities. Together we're supporting local jobs and innovation, in our region and beyond.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govJul 16(source)

Republicans are eager to cut billions of dollars from NSF, scientific research, and education budgets. Under their Commerce, Justice, Science bill, America will fall behind as global innovation leader. Our economy—and our children—will pay the price.

Trump's budget bill doesn't just gut Medicaid; hardworking families who rely on the ACA and Medicare for healthcare will also lose coverage. Millions will lose coverage, hospitals will be forced to cut services, and 5.4 million more Americans will be pushed into medical debt.

People are desperate for a government that listens and offers real solutions to everyday challenges. Government must work for you.

I joined the Genesee Country Village and Museum for a tour of the traveling exhibit, “Voices and Votes: Democracy in America.” This exhibit highlights the fight for equitable access to the ballot box for every American, a fight I'm carrying on as top Dem on the Committee on House Administration.

Here in Rochester, Foodlink does important work to uplift community members most in need and keep our neighbors fed. The Republican budget puts that mission at serious risk.
