We don't allow banks to call themselves the US Treasury Investment Fund. We don't allow delivery companies to call themselves USPS Plus. So why allow health insurance companies to call private insurance Medicare Advantage? My bill with Ro Khanna and Jan Schakowsky, the Save Medicare Act, fixes this.
On June 19, 1865, enslaved people in Galveston, Texas, finally learned they were free — more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation. We celebrate Juneteenth to honor the end of slavery and commit to the ongoing fight for equality and justice.
Ending a woman’s right to choose has been on Republicans’ hit list for as long as I can remember. On today’s podcast, I speak with Planned Parenthood President, Alexis McGill Johnson, on what Planned Parenthood is doing to fight these senseless attacks. youtu.be/lanw6pbSbhI
Join me tomorrow in Mt. Horeb for a town hall on tariffs and trade! I’ll be joined by former US Trade Rep. Katherine Tai, Kriss Marion of the Wisconsin Farmers Union, and Shawn Phetteplace of Main Street Alliance.
The federal government must take state and local violations into account when overseeing facilities. I will continue to work on this issue until we find more humane ways to do medical testing that don’t require the abuse of animals.
I am happy to hear that Ridglan Farms is winding down its operations as a beagle breeding and testing facility. There is a need for stronger administrative and legislative measures to protect animals from torturous conditions in testing, but this is a good step towards those national goals.
While families struggle with rising gas, grocery, and housing costs, Trump is dialed in on what matters most… a UFC fight on the White House lawn. It’s hard to imagine a more blatant example of misplaced priorities. Maybe the golden ballroom?
I helped introduce the Keep Public Funds in Public Schools Act, led by my good friend Rep. Gwen Moore to repeal it. As a public school graduate, I know firsthand the value and importance of our public education system and will continue to fight for it.
Last year’s Republican Big Ugly Law created a $25+ billion school voucher program that diverts taxpayer dollars from public schools to private schools.
Today marks 10 years since the Pulse Nightclub shooting. It was a truly horrific reminder of the violence faced by the LGBTQI+ community. Today, we remember the 49 lives taken from us. As we celebrate Pride Month, let's honor their memories by fighting tirelessly against anti-LGBTQI+ hatred.
That's why I'm excited to join Rep. Jonathan Jackson and Rep. Ro Khanna in supporting a constitutional amendment guaranteeing every American the right to vote.
Across the country, elected officials are looking for new ways to restrict access to the ballot box. But we should all be able to agree that democracy works best when everyone participates.
Trump just can’t get over the fact that he lost Wisconsin in 2020. Now he’s trying to have the Postal Service get involved in elections to try to help him and Republicans. This is wrong and I will continue to fight this absurdity. www.jsonline.com/story/news/p...
For an initiative that claims to be increasing efficiency, firing people and then rehiring them after realizing they were actually necessary is one of the least efficient things you can do.
I introduced a pretty commonsense, non-controversial amendment to study whether ICE activity has impacted farming workforce shortages. I guess my Republican colleagues didn't want to know the answer.
Elon cut funding for Ebola prevention. Then it was never fully restored. Now there's an Ebola outbreak. This isn’t just a little mistake. It’s a major screwup that could cost thousands of people their lives.
