2/ At today’s House Foreign Affairs Committee hearing on Syria, I underscored why the U.S., alongside our NATO allies, must remain engaged in countering Russian influence to build a stable future for Syria.
Happy birthday to the iconic @bluntrochester.senate.gov! Thank you for being such a fierce advocate for our state of neighbors. I hope today is full of the things you love—family, Delaware, and of course, Beyoncé!
Rep. McBride and Senator Blunt Rochester.
2/ That’s why I brought together the U.S. Travel Association and many of our Delaware tourism partners recently for a timely conversation about Delaware’s tourism priorities and the broader challenges facing the travel industry.

So great to spend the morning at Temple Beth El in Newark. I was grateful for the chance to connect with our neighbors about my first year in Congress, what’s happening in Washington, and how faith and hope sustain us in this moment.
Rep. McBride speaks to members of Temple Beth El.
2/ My amendment that passed the House Science, Space, and Technology Committee would strengthen NASA’s use of Earth science to improve real-time detection and forecasting so communities can act early to control HABs and protect our communities.
3/ My bipartisan FAIR Leave Act updates FMLA by ensuring that families who work for the same employer are entitled to the same job-protected leave as other workers. But we can’t stop there. We must pass paid family and medical leave for all Americans.
1/ For 33 years, the Family and Medical Leave Act has provided our neighbors with a fundamental promise: you shouldn’t have to choose between your job and caring for a family member or welcoming a baby.
33 years of Family and Medical Leave Act
BREAKING: @mcbride.house.gov recently returned from visiting US ally Denmark, where our friends are reeling from Trump’s Greenland threats and the reversal of our pro-democracy leadership on the world stage. The American people must stand by our allies! #trump #news #politics #greenland #congress
Great meeting with Community Anti-Drug Coalitions of America, including Allen "Duffy" Samuels of Duffy’s Hope, to discuss the power of community-based prevention and their work in Delaware providing resources, support, and care to our neighbors.
Rep. McBride and members of the Community Anti-Drug Coalitions of America.
2/ As a member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, I appreciated the opportunity to speak directly with him about how we can strengthen the U.S.-Montenegro relationship and combat Russian influence in Eastern Europe.
For far too long, Washington politicians have given us a false choice between safe borders and humane immigration policies. I know we can protect our border and our civil rights—but first, we have to be honest about what’s broken and bold enough to build something new the right way.
February marks the 100th anniv. of Black History Month—a time for us to come together to celebrate and honor the culture, contributions, & resilience of Black Americans in Delaware & across the country. Their leadership & legacy have helped shape our story—because Black history is American history.

The arrest of journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort is another example of the President and Attorney General Bondi weaponizing the Justice Department against those who dare to hold the administration accountable, including the press. My full statement:
The arrest of journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort is another example of the President and Attorney General Bondi weaponizing the Justice Department against those who dare to hold the administration accountable, including the press. This action is a direct attack on the principle of a free press and the First Amendment. There is no legal or moral justification for their arrests and they should be released immediately.
