9 in 10 Americans say there's a cost of living crisis. And the actions of this admin have only made things worse. Tariffs have passed costs onto the consumers. Wages haven't gone up. And higher insurance premiums only put less money in everyone's pockets.
You have questions about the Epstein files. And the @demwomencaucus.bsky.social is demanding—and getting—answers. I sat down with @kamlager-dove.house.gov to answer some of your top questions about the Epstein files.
Recording an ICE agent doesn't make you an agitator. Bringing meals to neighbors scared to leave home doesn't make you an extremist. Making sure a child isn't abducted doesn't make you a domestic terrorist. We will not tolerate these attacks on peaceful protest.
What we have seen happen to athletes at universities across the country cannot continue. But Republicans are more focused on culture wars than making real progress to protect athletes. If they actually wanted to protect athletes, my bipartisan bill would do that.
February honors the history of Black Americans, which is central to the history of our country. We remember the injustices so many before us faced, and celebrate the progress Black leaders have fought to achieve. This month and beyond, the fight for equal justice for all continues.
The DOJ exposed at least 43 victims and protected the identity of abusers in this latest file dump. Their priorities have always been about protecting those in power and disregarding the women who were abused. The push for full transparency continues.
"In one 2014 email exchange between a victim and the male modeling scout who recruited her into Epstein’s network, the scout’s email address is redacted while the victim’s isn’t properly redacted."
The Justice Department exposed the names of dozens of Jeffrey Epstein’s victims, including many who haven’t shared their identities publicly or were minors when they were abused by the notorious sex offender. 🔗 on.wsj.com/4k9EIh4
Congress passed a bill to require the release of all Epstein files in November. The admin is breaking the law to cover up allegations against Trump and the powerful. We need an independent investigation from DOJ OIG.
Epstein's survivors haven't come forward just for half of the files to be released. This isn't about protecting victims. It's about protecting those in power. I will continue to fight for the transparency this admin continues to deny survivors.
From warrantless raids to the use of force against U.S. citizens and lawful immigrants, Secretary Noem has violated the law. That's why I joined @robinkelly.house.gov in introducing articles of impeachment against Secretary Kristi Noem. It’s time for accountability.
Americans don’t want chaos and carnage in our streets. We don’t want masked agents detaining small children, ripping innocent people from their homes, or terrorizing peaceful communities. We don’t want heavily-armed men who act in our name, with our tax dollars, to bully & kill with impunity.
I voted NO on the Homeland Security funding bill yesterday. The immigration raids we've seen are out of control & deeply disturbing. And the included funding for FEMA is fully insufficient to meet the needs of Western NC.

53 years ago, Roe v. Wade marked a major victory for women's freedom. Today that right to reproductive freedom is gone. And the attacks on women’s health have only gone further: millions are losing Medicaid coverage & expiring ACA tax credits priced people out of care. Republicans are to blame.
I was so honored to join the opening celebration for Wake County's New Public Health Center, and see the federal funding I secured for this project being put to work. This is one step forward in getting accessible and affordable health care to everyone in our community.
Yesterday, Congresswoman Alma Adams and I hosted a roundtable with colleges and universities from across North Carolina to hear how we can best support them while they deal with cuts to federal funding and other challenges. I am committed to fighting for the resources that NC's universities need.
