FirstNet plays a critical role in keeping first responders connected during natural disasters. With FirstNet reaching the end of its current authorization, I've joined Rep. Neal Dunn to sponsor legislation that extends the program and strengthens its governance, transparency and accountability.
Vulnerable communities have borne the brunt of the health and environmental impacts of energy projects while struggling to pay their energy bills. I joined @energycommerce.bsky.social Democrats to ensure projects approved by FERC benefit ratepayers without harming disadvantaged communities.
As the Affordable Care Act, Medicare and Medicaid remain under attack from the Trump Administration, costs associated with fighting cancer keep climbing. Uninsured patients are more likely to be diagnosed at a later stage and be forced to delay critical care because of high costs.
On #WorldCancerDay, we remember those who lost their lives to cancer, honor survivors and those undergoing treatment, and thank the health care providers and researchers fighting for a world free from this horrible disease.
In the midst of our technological landscape, we must consider the role American robotics plays in addressing 21st-century challenges. That’s why I introduced the National Commission on Robotics Act with Reps. Obernolte and Latta, a bill to help the U.S. remain a leader in robotics development.
Graphic. Background is images of robotics equipment. Text reads, “National Commission on Robotics Act. McClellan, Obernolte, Latta. Advancing United States Leadership in Robotics Through Cutting-Edge Technology.” Logo of Rep. McClellan is present.
The Voting Rights Act of 1965 ended these tactics. Yet, since the Supreme Court gutted the VRA in 2013, we’ve seen voter suppression tactics across the country. I remain committed to protecting our sacred right to vote.
The 15th Amendment was ratified on this date in 1870, prohibiting the denial or abridgment of a citizen’s right to vote on the basis of race, color or previous condition of servitude. Yet across the South, states used poll taxes, literacy tests and violence to keep Black men from voting. #BHM2026
The government entered a partial shutdown this past weekend as Congressional Republicans refused to reign in an out-of-control Department of Homeland Security as its ICE and Border Patrol agents create a public safety crisis in communities across America.  Read more in my newsletter below ⬇️
I thank all those in my district and beyond who have spread awareness, shared stories and stood against this crisis. I will continue to work in Washington alongside local, state and federal partners to ensure we are holding ICE, Border Patrol and the DHS accountable for their actions.
We cannot stand idly by while a paramilitary force roams our streets without oversight. ICE and Border Patrol’s escalation of their tactics and blatant violations of our constitutional rights have further traumatized already shaken communities. This campaign of terror must end.
In city after city, DHS has spread terror as unidentifiable and untrained officers turn children into collateral, destabilize communities and cost lives. The American people agree that the Trump Administration has gone too far in enabling Secretary Noem and her Department to run with impunity.
Masked agents continue to break into homes. ICE continues to snatch and detain our most vulnerable in deplorable conditions. U.S. citizens and lawfully present individuals have been detained and deported with little due process. Another U.S. citizen, Alex Pretti, has been shot and killed.
Since the House last passed a Department of Homeland Security funding bill, we have only seen greater strife, confusion and fear resulting from the Trump Administration’s overly aggressive immigration enforcement tactics.
Two weeks ago, I voted against funding DHS without significant reforms to address the public safety crisis created by the Trump Administration and its Congressional Republican enablers. Today, I again voted no on extending funding for DHS. Here’s why 🧵
