It’s long past time for Congress to pass this commonsense legislation.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govJun 11(source)

Few issues are more urgent—or more high-stakes—than gun safety. That’s why I’m proud to join @mikethompson.house.gov and Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick in introducing the Bipartisan Background Checks Act to require universal background checks before all firearm sales nationwide.

Today, I joined @housedemocrats.bsky.social in honoring National Gun Violence Awareness Day. Far too many families have endured the unimaginable pain of gun violence. It's past time Congress acts to protect our communities and save lives. #EnoughisEnough

It's been 81 years since thousands of Allied troops stormed the beaches of Normandy—confronting authoritarianism with courage and resolve. And because of their sacrifice, freedom prevailed. We remember them—today and always.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govJun 5(source)

2/ It's simple: defending democracy abroad starts with protecting it here at home.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govJun 5(source)

1/ NATO has been a defender of democracy in the U.S. and in Europe for over 75 years. But when this administration attacks our allies, infringes upon due process, and tramples free speech, it tells Putin that we no longer stand for the values that demonstrates our commitment to NATO.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govJun 3(source)

I’ll continue to fight for them in the halls of Congress, including pushing back against policies that drive up costs and hurt their operations.

3/ We must always uphold our sacred commitment not only to those who made the ultimate sacrifice, but to all who serve our nation in uniform.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govMay 30(source)
