That's why I led a letter with @kellymorrisonmn.bsky.social and Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib urging this administration to take immediate action to exempt items for young children, including car seats, highchairs, strollers, and cribs from these harmful taxes on everyday Americans. (2/2)

Graphic with images of the letter with a quote below it that reads: "We remain concerned that the Administration's tariffs will exacerbate the cost of caring for babies and toddlers."

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govApr 2(source)

President Trump promised to lower costs on day one—but his tariff policies are doing the exact opposite. (1/2)

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govApr 2(source)

President Trump’s top national security team — some of the most surveilled people on the planet — have been carelessly handling classified and mission-sensitive information. Signalgate isn’t just embarrassing—it’s dangerous.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govApr 1(source)

Thank you, @booker.senate.gov, for your courage and leadership today.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govApr 1(source)

Republican leadership is throwing a temper tantrum over a bill to allow proxy voting for new parents in Congress. It got so bad that they cancelled votes for the rest of the week. For a party that is supposedly "pro-family," they have a funny way of showing it.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govMar 31(source)

When we both build community among ourselves and forge a coalition beyond us, no amount of progress is impossible. On Trans Day of Visibility, we recognize that this mission is more important now than ever. Read more in my opinion piece for The Advocate here ⬇️ www.advocate.com/voices/sarah...

"We must remain firm in our values and our vision in this moment – and, just as importantly, we should never give up on our ability to win over more people to more fully see our humanity and support our rights. It’s not always fair work, and it’s certainly not always easy work, but through the power of our proximity we can still open the hearts and change the minds of imperfect or unlikely allies."

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govMar 28(source)

Trump signed an executive order late last night that illegally strips workers of their collective bargaining rights. This will impact over one million Americans. I’ll support all efforts to stop this egregious assault on labor unions.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govMar 27(source)

If you're wondering what the House of Representatives is voting on later today, it's legislation to repeal energy efficiency rules for commercial fridges and freezers that actually save small businesses and consumers money. The absurdity never ends.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govMar 27(source)

The future of Seaford is exactly what we should hope for in our small cities and towns across America. (3/3)

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govMar 27(source)

Through hard work and dedicated investment, Seaford's main street has gone from 90% vacancy to more than 90% occupancy - and the city is continuing to build on that progress with the new Nylon Capital Center. (2/3)

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govMar 27(source)

Just last week, I had the privilege of meeting with Seaford's leadership to discuss the city's progress and their vision for the future. (1/3)

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govMar 26(source)

It was out of this world to meet with Bill Nye and The Planetary Society on the Hill yesterday! We both agree that fostering investments in planetary science and space exploration, especially through NASA, are so important to our collective future — and something we can all agree on.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govMar 26(source)

Recently, I've been hearing from a lot of people that because the word 'Medicaid' doesn't appear in the majority party's budget resolution, it won't be impacted. So, let me set the record straight: under their budget, Medicaid will be cut. Here's how:

Thank you to members from National Air Traffic Controllers Association (including a Delawarean!) for stopping by my office today. Your work is vital to Americans’ safety when traveling, and I’ll continue to advocate for you here in Washington.

Rep. McBride with representatives from the National Air Traffic Controllers Association.

Everyone deserves equal pay for equal work. Period. That's why, on #EqualPayDay, I join my colleagues in calling on Congress to pass the Paycheck Fairness Act, so we can close the wage gap and ensure fair pay for women in every industry.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govMar 25(source)

The Trump admin has halted millions of dollars worth of vital food aid deliveries to food banks across the country, including to the Food Bank of Delaware. At a time when grocery prices remain high & demand for assistance is great, Delaware families are now in jeopardy of receiving fewer meals.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govMar 24(source)

These homes are the culmination of Habitat's hard work, federal funding, and our state and local partners, and they speak to our shared commitment to making housing more affordable in New Castle County and throughout Delaware. (2/2)

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govMar 24(source)

Grateful to start my morning with Habitat for Humanity of New Castle County, where we celebrated four new homeowners on Wilmington's East Side. (1/2)

Rep. McBride takes a photo with Matthew Heckles, Director of the Delaware State Housing Authority, Senator Chris Coons, Kevin Smith, CEO of Habitat for Humanity of New Castle County, and the new homeowners.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govMar 24(source)

Substance use disorders affect too many neighbors across our state. That’s why spaces like Limen Recovery and Wellness in Wilmington are essential – to provide services, support, & hope to those on the path to recovery. I was proud to help cut the ribbon on their new recovery center in Wilmington.

Rep. McBride helps cut the ribbon on the new recovery center.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govMar 23(source)

I’m excited to work with CRISP to further cement Delaware as a leader in innovation both regionally and nationally. (3/3)
