Samantha with @reproductivefreedomforall.org is right: without meaningful Supreme Court reform, we cannot restore Americans' reproductive freedom. 
My Anti-Corruption and Democracy Reform Task Force is exploring every option to reign in this rogue court and preserve Americans' fundamental rights.
Earlier this year, DHS began constructing a detention facility in Rochester without notifying local officials or meaningfully engaging the public. The facility is being built in the same federal building as a daycare center. Watch my remarks on this issue here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=8r9t...
The Congressional Baseball Game is a great tradition which brings members together in support of causes that make a difference. While I'm not playing this year, I'll be rooting on my colleagues and celebrating the spirit of bipartisanship that makes this event so special. Play ball!
Voters deserve transparency, accountability, and the truth. That’s why I authored the AI Transparency in Elections Act: to require clear disclaimers when political ads use AI-generated images, audio, or video.
This is exactly why we need strong guardrails around AI in our elections. Using artificial intelligence to fabricate a candidate’s voice or likeness is deceptive, dangerous, and designed to confuse voters. I stand with Rep. Balint and others who are targeted by these tactics.
A political opponent recently posted a deepfake video of me on social media. It was generated using AI and fabricated my voice and image to put words in my mouth. While it represents a new - and dangerous - low, it was not unpredictable. (1/2)
NEWS: Rep. Becca Balint Responds to Deepfake Video Published on Social Media, Calls for Legislative Action

Swipe for Rep. Balint’s statement on the matter and info on the NO FAKES Act, her legislation that would confront this issue head-on.
Rep. Balint Statement on Deepfake Video

“This ad is offensive and a dangerous example of what happens when AI is used to deceive voters. Fabricating my voice and image to put words in my mouth is a new low. Free speech is a cornerstone of our democracy, but impersonation and deception are not. This was also predictable and exactly why I introduced the NO FAKES Act—to give people protections against unauthorized AI replicas of their voice and likeness and bring greater transparency and accountability to AI-generated content.”
The NO FAKES Act

Protects YOUR voice and visual likeness
Addresses the threat of digital replicas created without YOUR consent through AI
Empowers YOU to take action against bad actors who create, distribute, or profit from unauthorized digital replicas
Defends artists, creators, and anyone who uses the internet
63 years after the Equal Pay Act became law, the promise of equal pay for equal work remains unfinished. Too many women, especially women of color, still earn less on average than their male counterparts.
The cost-of-living crisis is real, and working families are paying the price. That's why my @democrats-appropriations.house.gov colleagues & I are fighting back against Republican proposals to cut health care and make life even more expensive. Americans deserve lower costs and greater opportunity.
The Anti-Corruption and Democracy Reform Task Force met with groups like @brennancenter.org today to discuss reforms for a Supreme Court that too often appears more responsive to special interests and billionaires than to the American people.
I voted no, and I will continue fighting for policies that lower costs, protect families, and uphold the dignity of every person in our community.
This bill is a betrayal of the promises Republicans made to the American people. Taxpayer dollars should be used to help families afford groceries, housing, childcare, and healthcare—not to fund cruelty, sow fear, and make life more expensive for working people.
Instead of investing in affordable healthcare, lower costs, and stronger communities, Republicans are pouring tens of billions of taxpayer dollars into an agency that has repeatedly targeted law-abiding families and torn communities apart.
Here in Rochester, we've seen the fear and uncertainty ICE's actions have created for immigrant families who are our neighbors, coworkers, and friends.
“Donald Trump and Congressional Republicans promised to lower costs for working families. Instead, they’ve passed a bill that cuts healthcare, threatens food assistance, and makes life harder for families—all to bankroll ICE’s mass deportation agenda and hand out more tax breaks to the wealthy.
Appropriators cannot act responsibly without information. We continue to demand answers from the Department of Defense, and they continue to fail to give them.
Every day, my team helps our community navigate federal agencies, access important resources, and secure money owed to them—and I'm proud to say we've returned more than $900,000 so far this year. To learn how we may be able to assist you, visit: morelle.house.gov
