Presidents’ Day falls during #BlackHistoryMonth, and the #BHM2025 theme focuses on labor. Today is a good day to learn about the over 300 known enslaved men, women and children who built and staffed the White House. Their story is part of the fabric of American history.

VA Fires 1,000 Employees as Part of Trump's Trimming of the Federal Workforce

The dismissals targeted non-union employees who had served less than a year in competitive jobs or fewer than two years in specialty positions that aren't subject to worker protections.

The Trump Administration’s hiring freeze has already impacted our Veterans Affairs health centers and services. Now, they’ve purged 1,000 Veterans Affairs employees.

The Trump Administration’s reckless federal workforce purge is putting our nation in serious danger.

Happy Douglass Day! Frederick Douglass never knew his birthday. Those who kept him enslaved only recorded that he was born in February 1818. He chose Valentine’s Day to celebrate as his birthday because his last memory of his mother was of her giving him a heart-shaped cake. #BHM2025

Happy Valentine’s Day, and thank you to everyone who sent Valentines for veterans in VA-04! Today, my team and I delivered them to veterans across the district and had a discussion on what’s happening on the Hill with veterans at Hopewell’s VFW Post 637.

The CFPB was created to stop the bank and financial institution practices that led to the 2008 mortgage crisis and Great Recession. This blatant power grab could send us hurtling into another economic crisis.

Rep. Jennifer McClellan@mcclellan.house.govFeb 14(source)

Russell Vought and Elon Musk’s DOGE bros have hijacked the CFPB, halting its vital work protecting consumers from predatory lending, mortgage fraud, exploitive junk fees and unfair bank practices. I joined Congresswoman Maxine Waters to demand they halt this hostile CFPB takeover. ⬇️

🎥 Health care is a right, not a privilege. But House Republicans are working to strip it from millions of Americans.
