Today, the Energy & Commerce Committee unanimously passed @underwood.house.gov NIH IMPROVE Act to establish a research program at NIH focused on reducing maternal deaths and improving health outcomes for pregnant and postpartum women. This is an important first step. We can and must do more.
Recycling reduces waste and lowers our carbon footprint. Yet millions of tons of recyclable materials end up in landfills every year.  Today, the Energy & Commerce Committee unanimously advanced my bipartisan bill with Rep. Miller-Meeks to provide grants for projects that increase recycling.
Mifepristone saves lives. Louisiana Republicans have asked the Supreme Court to limit access to it by allowing them to ban delivery by mail.  I spoke with @charlottewords.bsky.social at @virginiamercury.com about what’s at stake and how I’m fighting back.
Carriage House residents suffered deplorable living conditions until the City of Petersburg deemed the complex uninhabitable. @lashrecseaird.bsky.social, @kimadamsforva.bsky.social and I demanded that property managers resolve all outstanding issues and provide alternative housing in the meantime.

Excited to announce this year’s VA-04 winner of the Congressional Art Competition: Gabrielle Williams, a junior at Thomas Dale HS, will see her artwork hang in the Capitol. “American Dream” is about the ongoing theft of Black culture. Congrats to Gabrielle and all of the other winners!
American Dream by Gabrielle Williams.
ICYMI: I joined @ryanobles.bsky.social to discuss SCOTUS’s gutting of Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act in Louisiana v. Callais — and how it opened the door for Southern states to dilute Black voting strength.
Children deserve the freedom to explore, learn and play independently. Parents must ensure they do so safely. I spoke with @daveress.bsky.social at @richmond.com about how my bipartisan bill with Rep. Blake Moore will help parents strike the right balance.
We must continue expanding passenger rail, especially as skyrocketing fuel prices make life increasingly unaffordable. This week, I introduced the Amtrak Grant Flexibility Act with @deluzio.house.gov to open the door to billions of dollars in new funding for our Amtrak system.
Graphic. Background is photo of passenger rail. Text reads, “MCCLELLAN INTRODUCES AMTRAK GRANT FLEXIBILITY ACT: BOOSTING AMTRAK FUNDING AND STRENGTHENING PUBLIC TRANSIT.” Logo of Rep. McClellan is present.
The FCC serves the public interest, not a political agenda. But Trump’s FCC Chairman has sought to weaponize the agency to advance their “anti-woke” political agenda. I led 17 of my colleagues to call out this abuse of power.

The Voting Rights Act was a watershed moment for Black political participation. Now that SCOTUS has gutted Section 2, we see state legislatures in the South moving to erase that progress. I led the @cbc.house.gov Special Order Hour about the impact of Louisiana v. Callais.
