1/ We’re facing a preventable maternal mortality crisis because reproductive health care is under attack. At today’s Maternal Health Awareness Day in Dover, I spoke with the Delaware Chapter of ACOG about my commitment to supporting Delaware’s OB/GYN workforce and the women who rely on their care.
Rep. McBride speaks during the event.
This president is trying to fundamentally remake the global order. He believes in might-makes-right on the world stage. Let's be clear: a "sovereignty for me and not for thee" global order is a recipe for more war, conflict, and violence.
I just voted NO on the Homeland Security funding bill that would pour an additional $10 billion into fueling ICE’s abuse of power. ICE has become the president’s own paramilitary force, threatening the safety and freedom of the American people. This cannot continue.
3/ America was built on a simple promise: freedom. That includes the freedom to decide how and when to start a family. Reproductive freedom is about dignity, autonomy, and the ability to get the care you need. We will continue fighting to protect reproductive freedom nationwide.
2/ Across the country, women are living with the consequences—having to travel for reproductive care, facing extreme abortion bans, and watching their doctors be criminalized for providing care. This is exactly what the Trump administration wants.
1/ Roe v. Wade affirmed one of our most fundamental freedoms: Americans should be able to make their own health care decisions. Now, 53 years after the Roe decision, an extreme Supreme Court has stripped away that fundamental right to bodily autonomy.

1/ It was an honor to meet with Alexis McGill Johnson, president of Planned Parenthood, this afternoon. Right now, the essential services Planned Parenthood provides to women in Delaware and across the country are under an all-out attack.
Rep. McBride and Alexis.
2/ Decided on this day in 2010, it opened the floodgates to unfettered, unregulated money in our elections—treating money as speech. We need to get money out of politics, and we need a Supreme Court willing to overturn this decision.
During Trump’s first year back in office, Delaware families paid over $1,300 more on average for housing and transportation costs due to inflation. Nationally, families paid over $1,600 more. Donald Trump promised to lower prices on day one. Another empty promise from a career conman.
We honor the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. today by serving—our communities, our state, and one another. As Dr. King reminded us, “Human progress is neither automatic nor inevitable.” Progress requires participation—and the courage to keep fighting for racial justice and equality.
A picture of the Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial in Washington, DC. Text next to the statue reads "MLK Day."
2/ At this critical juncture for our countries, our message was clear as members of Congress: we value the US-Denmark partnership, the NATO alliance, and the right of Greenlanders to self-determination.
1/ When I I look back on my first year in office, while there's too often dysfunction in Congress, I'm proud that I've been able to deliver critical investments for Delaware and deliver critical funding that is owed to individual Delawareans.
I'm joining a bipartisan delegation of members of Congress this weekend in Copenhagen to reaffirm our support for Denmark, Greenland, and our NATO allies—despite the baffling, bizarre, and aggressive rhetoric of this president that says otherwise.
