2/ This is a day for remembrance and reflection. Now more than ever, we must carry forward the service and values that unite us as Americans—and summon the common purpose we shared as a nation on that day.
1/ Today, we pause to remember the innocent lives lost on September 11, 2001, honor the bravery of the first responders who rushed into harm’s way, and stand with the survivors and families whose lives were forever changed.

Some in Congress can’t muster maturity when they have a transgender colleague. But members of the U.S. Armed Forces can—and have. My NDAA amendments repeal Trump’s cruel trans military ban & restore retirement benefits to trans veterans forced out of service.
It was an honor to attend the Nanticoke Indian Tribe's 47th Annual Powwow in Milton this weekend. This gathering is always a powerful celebration of culture, community, and tradition—and a reminder of the strength and pride that the Nanticoke people bring to Delaware's story.

I was glad to visit the University of Delaware's Carvel Research and Education Center in Georgetown today. From crop science to sustainable farming, the innovation happening here is shaping the future of agriculture in our state and is keeping Delaware’s farms—and families—strong.

1/ I know there’s a lot of bad news right now, but here’s something good: a bipartisan coalition stopped a provision that would have stripped federal funding from the Delaware River Basin Commission.
The Fly-In is back in session! This week, hosts @repgreglandsman.bsky.social & @repmarcveasey.bsky.social are joined by New Dems @mcbride.house.gov & @morelle.house.gov to discuss the upcoming government funding fight, political violence, book clubs, Taylor Swift, & more. Available everywhere now.
I’ll continue to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with working people across Delaware and across the country: defending the right to organize, protecting collective bargaining, strengthening unions, and building an economy where every worker is treated with dignity and respect. 💪
On Labor Day, we honor the generations of working people & labor unions who fought for rights we too often take for granted—safer workplaces, fair pay & benefits, and yes, even the weekend. But our work is far from done—Trump’s attacks on workers & unions make clear just how much we must defend.
I recently joined Ezion Fair Baptist Church and FHLBank Pittsburgh to celebrate the near completion of ten new affordable housing units in Southbridge. This project is about more than housing—it’s about making sure more of our neighbors have access to safety, stability, & the dignity they deserve.

2/ That’s why I’ve already taken action to defuse this bomb by co-sponsoring the Protecting Health Care and Lowering Costs Act—legislation to repeal these cuts and permanently extend ACA premium tax credits. We must do all we can to protect the care so many of our neighbors depend on.

1/ While in New Castle last week, I joined my dear friend State Senator Marie Pinkney and health care leaders from across Delaware to discuss Trump’s devastating Medicaid cuts. They were clear: gutting this lifeline isn’t belt-tightening—it’s cruelty.

I visited Southern Delaware Therapeutic Riding in Milton, which for nearly four decades has connected people with disabilities to therapeutic horseback riding. Their work offers a place—and friends like Gulliver’s Travels and Appy—to build confidence, resilience, and companionship.
