Now that the House is back in session, here's three big things you should know about this week: 1️⃣ The Epstein Files 2️⃣ Redrawn Texas Maps Were Struck Down 3️⃣ The “Golden Age” Is Unaffordable Together, we’ll keep pushing for the accountability and fairness that every American deserves.
1/ I voted to release the files because Epstein’s victims—and the American people—deserve truth, transparency, and justice. Those implicated must be held accountable because no one is above the law—especially the wealthy, the well-connected, and those entrusted with serving the public.
Despite congressional Republicans passing a budget built on corruption and cruelty—one that ignores the real problems facing Americans—the House is back in session. I'll continue to show up to defend Americans’ health care, lower costs, and make sure working families can make ends meet.
Rep. McBride speaks in front her House Democratic colleagues on the House steps.
The budget passed—but not with my vote. I won’t support a Republican agenda built on cruelty and corruption—and that’s exactly what this budget was. I’ll keep fighting to protect and expand health care for every Delawarean and every American.
Donald Trump loves to own things and stick his name on them. Well, now he owns the American health care system. Millions losing coverage. Americans paying more for insurance. Everyone having to drive longer and wait more time for care. That is Trumpcare.
The only thing congressional Republicans are more loyal to than Donald Trump is cutting Americans’ health care. Millions face skyrocketing premiums. The largest Medicaid cut in U.S. history looms. Rural hospitals will close. Doctors’ offices will shutter. I’m voting no on this budget bill.
1/ Speaker Johnson abused his power by delaying the swearing-in of a duly elected member of Congress. So proud to now call her Congresswoman and colleague—and even prouder that one of her first acts was being the final signer on the discharge petition to force a vote to release the Epstein files.
4/ Because service to our nation is rooted in the belief that our shared future is worth protecting, even when it comes at great cost. To our veterans and their families: thank you for your service, your strength, and your unwavering commitment to our country.
3/ We paid tribute to those who have served our nation in uniform and cut the ribbon on the renovated Wall of Remembrance. Standing together in gratitude reminds us of the shared responsibility we all have to support those who serve.
Rep. McBride speaks at a podium.
2/ This morning, I proudly joined President Biden, Senator Coons, state and local leaders, and our neighbors for the Delaware Commission of Veterans Affairs and Delaware River and Bay Authority’s annual Veterans Day service.
Rep. McBride with President Biden, Senator Coons, and other state leaders.
2/ Doubling down on cuts to Medicaid that will leave 50,000 Delawareans without health care isn’t compromise — it’s a crisis. A bill that ignores families paying double for insurance isn’t a solution.
1/ I cannot support this budget bill because Delawareans deserve so much better. We can reopen government and tackle the health care crisis all at the same time. The only thing stopping us for months has been Republican cruelty.
She’s inspired a new generation of leaders to serve, and has never wavered in her fight for truth, opportunity, and equality—the pillars of a stronger, fairer America. Her leadership and example will guide us for generations to come.
Rep. McBride walks alongside Speaker Pelosi.
One of the greatest privileges of my time in Congress has been serving with—and learning from—Speaker Pelosi. She’s become a friend, a mentor, and a confidante. It’s almost impossible to put into words the impact she’s had on our party and on me personally.
Rep. McBride and Speaker Pelosi.
