After threatening war crimes against the Iranian people, the President of the United States now threatens “a whole civilization” with death. Speaker Johnson must call the House back to end Trump’s war of choice and take back the reins from an Administration with no strategy beyond more bloodshed.
Post from Trump that reads, “A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again. I don't want that to happen, but it probably will. However, now that we have Complete and Total Regime Change, where different, smarter, and less radicalized minds prevail, maybe something revolutionarily wonderful can happen, WHO KNOWS? We will find out tonight, one of the most important moments in the long and complex history of the World. 47 years of extortion, corruption, and death, will finally end. God Bless the Great People of Iran!”

Since its founding through the North Atlantic Treaty 77 years ago today, NATO has been a lynchpin to security and maintaining stability across Europe and North America. Since his return to office, President Trump has threatened to abandon NATO and put decades of diplomatic progress at risk.

One year ago, Trump announced his “Liberation Day” tariffs, throwing our economy into chaos with sweeping taxes on everything from technology to toys, groceries and more. Since then, I’ve heard stories across Virginia about the uncertainty Trump’s illegal tariffs have caused.

Jeannette Rankin took her oath of office to serve as the first Congresswoman of the United States 109 years ago today. Her courage as a historymaker has paved the way for me and so many other women of Congress to fight for a future that allows our daughters and their daughters to dream bigger.

Republicans pushed through nearly $200 billion to fund ICE and Border Patrol in the Big Ugly Law. Yet their dysfunction has kept TSA, FEMA, Coast Guard and cybersecurity professionals unpaid. Speaker Johnson should call the House back to approve DHS funding we should have approved last week.

Breaking News: The House took no action on the Senate’s bill to fund the Department of Homeland Security. The record agency shutdown will continue through at least Monday.

President Trump once again seeks to reshape election law by executive fiat in order to suppress votes. Federal courts have rejected these unconstitutional efforts. This latest threat to democracy must fall as well.

President Trump signed an executive order directs the U.S. Postal Service to send ballots only to voters who appear on a list of citizens to be compiled by the Department of Homeland Security with the assistance of the Social Security Administration.

I took my oath of office with my hand on my father’s Bible. Inside, he kept his poll tax receipt. Now, I’m fighting to stop a modern-day poll tax. Read my column in @democracydocket.com about how the SAVE America Act will disenfranchise millions of Americans and roll back progress on voting rights.

NEW: When Rep. Jennifer McClellan was sworn into office, she put her hand on her father’s Bible where he kept the receipt of a poll tax he paid in 1947 when registering to vote. The SAVE America Act would impose a modern-day poll tax, reversing decades of progress made by voting rights advocates.

On this #TransDayofVisibility, we uplift and celebrate the transgender and non-binary community! The safety and fundamental civil rights of our trans neighbors are under attack. Today and every day, we must defend their freedoms and right to exist in peace.
Graphic of an individual stands against the sky holding a transgender pride flag. Across the image, the words “International Transgender Day of Visibility” are displayed. At the bottom is Rep. McClellan’s logo.

For #WHM, I am excited to welcome as my guest on Moments with McClellan someone who needs no introduction: Her Excellency Abigail Spanberger, the first woman governor of Virginia! Stay tuned for our conversation on @abigailspanberger.com’s takes on being a historymaker!

Yet another week passed with no funding for TSA, FEMA and the Coast Guard as House Republicans rejected a unanimous Senate bill to end the DHS shutdown. Keep watching for more of what you may have missed last week.
Rep. Jennifer McClellan@mcclellan.house.govMar 28(source)
I offer my thanks to our TSA, FEMA and Coast Guard, who have endured unnecessary hardship amidst rising prices. They should not have to pay the price for House Republicans’ disregard for their livelihoods. I’ll continue pushing for reforms that protect public safety and enforce the rule of law.
Rep. Jennifer McClellan@mcclellan.house.govMar 28(source)
Over the last year, we have watched ICE and CBP agents operate with impunity, entering homes without judicial warrants and using deadly force. We must implement accountability measures that keep these agencies in check.
Rep. Jennifer McClellan@mcclellan.house.govMar 28(source)
Instead, House Republicans rejected the Senate’s bipartisan deal and advanced a partisan bill funding DHS for 60 days with no ICE and CBP reforms, knowing full well that package is dead on arrival in the Senate.
