It's always a joy to join my brothers and sisters in labor from UA Local 13 for their annual summer celebration! Throughout my career, I have proudly stood alongside unions, and I will continue to support their work to uplift families across our community.

During Caribbean American Heritage Month, we celebrate the vibrant culture and rich history of the Caribbean American community here in Rochester. It was a privilege to honor some special individuals who have had a profound impact on our region.

The Trump administration's budget is actually quite simple: borrow money from the poorest in our country to pay for tax breaks for the wealthiest. It's un-American.

In just a few minutes, I’ll be joining Evan Dawson on WXXI. Tune in!

Yesterday, I met with the New York State United Teachers and the Rochester Teachers Association—two organizations representing the dedicated educators and staff who keep our communities strong. Proud to stand with their members in the fight for quality public education and fair working conditions.

Juneteenth serves as both an acknowledgement of our nation's dark history and a celebration of the first step towards achieving equality, equity, and opportunity for Black Americans. On this day of reflection, let us recommit to the fight against racial injustice.

Great to be with the Friendly Home and Sisters of Saint Joseph for a tour of the Lily Brook Retirement Home today. After a lifetime of devotion to our community, our seniors deserve to age with dignity and with our support. Proud to work alongside these community leaders towards that mission.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govJun 18(source)

I joined seniors at the Jewish Home today to share how I'm working in Congress to protect the programs they rely on. While the Trump administration targets Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security, I’m fighting for older Americans—here in Rochester and nationwide.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govJun 18(source)

Honored to be with the Council of Agency Executives this morning to discuss our work fighting against the chaos and corruption of the Trump administration. This is not an easy time—but we all have a responsibility to do right by our neighbors.

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

Lawmakers shouldn't have to worry about the safety of their families while they carry out their elected duties. Violence of any kind has no place in our democracy. We must work to keep members safe and take a step back from the dangerous rhetoric fueling this.

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

Great to be with St Joseph's Neighborhood Center to cut the ribbon on their new Medical Outreach and Engagement Vehicle! Under the leadership of County Executive Bello, I'm proud our community continues to step up and ensure our neighbors have the care and support they deserve.

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

Today, I stopped by the Rochester Adult & Teen Challenge Center for a visit and a tour of their facility. They are transforming lives with a holistic approach to addiction recovery, and I'm grateful for the impactful work they do.

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

I'm keeping the victims of this senseless violence in my prayers and I'm grateful for law enforcement's swift response.

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

In the wake of the horrifying violence in Minnesota, elected officials at all levels are understandably concerned. As top Democrat on the Committee on House Administration, I'm working with my colleagues and law enforcement to keep members of Congress safe.

It was a privilege to host another Pinning Ceremony to honor local veterans who served in the Vietnam War. This recognition was long overdue, and I'm grateful for the opportunity to pay tribute to their courage and sacrifice.

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

Grateful to the Rochester organizations who joined my constituent coffee hour in D.C. last week. Your insights are vital as we work together to strengthen our community. We're fortunate to have such passionate advocates committed to driving positive change back home.

I’ll be live tomorrow on @waytooearly.bsky.social with @alivitali.bsky.social around 5:40am. I hope you’ll join me!

My father always used to say, “If there’s something you can do to help someone, you have an obligation to do it." I try to carry that legacy forward by doing what I can to support our neighbors. Happy Father's Day to all the dads, grandads, and father-figures in our community.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govJun 14(source)

My staff and I are in close contact with the House sergeant at arms and the U.S. Capitol Police to proactively ensure the safety of Minnesota’s congressional delegation. We continue to thank dedicated law enforcement officers for their service in our communities across the country.
