The Trump Administration is abruptly closing two USDA childcare centers for federal workers, giving families less than three months to make new arrangements for their kids.
If this administration is so “pro-family,” then USDA should immediately reverse this action.

This Memorial Day, we remember and honor our patriotic service members who gave the last full measure of devotion to protect our democracy and our liberty. May their memory be a blessing to their families and to all who cherish freedom in America.
This week’s MD-08 Local Hero is the amazing Rob Goldman, who has led the Montgomery Housing Partnership for 25 years. Rob serves as an instrumental force in making housing more available and affordable in our community. Thanks for a great 25 years, Rob!
People in Congress and across the country grieve the passing of Barney Frank, who over three decades of service in Congress was an extraordinary champion for the civil rights and civil liberties of all people. May his memory be a blessing to his family and our entire nation.
I'm horrified and saddened by the mass shooting at the Islamic Center of San Diego. My heart goes out to a grieving community.
Together we must oppose all forms of hate and fascist violence. No one should have to fear for their safety while worshiping in community.
It was an honor to welcome to Capitol Hill 8th District students who were nominated and received appointment offers to U.S. Service Academies. These exceptionally talented young people will go on to serve as military officers and leaders in different parts of the government and society.
Today, the House voted overwhelmingly to send a pro-democracy message to Trump ahead of his summit with Xi. The President must listen and do all he can to secure the immediate release of Apple Daily publisher Jimmy Lai and other prisoners of conscience languishing behind bars in China.
During Jewish American Heritage Month, we honor the contributions and service of Jewish Americans to our public life and culture.
Together we uplift our extraordinary history and recommit to root out toxic antisemitism, and all other forms of organized hate, in our society and on earth.
Happy Mother’s Day to all the great mothers in MD-08 and across America. We thank you for your love, tender care and wisdom.
This antisemitic graffiti at Greenwood Elementary School in Brookeville is profoundly disturbing. We’re all holding the students and Greenwood community close as authorities continue to investigate another intolerable act of antisemitic vandalism.
This week's MD-08 Local Hero is the talented Director of MoCo's Department of Transportation, Christopher Conklin.
Yesterday, MoCo unveiled the nation's largest transit depot electrical grid. Chris joined us to share what this impressive green project means for transit in our community.
Congrats to Montgomery County for building the nation’s largest transit depot electrical grid! Thank you for leading the way in pioneering cleaner energy solutions for transit in our community.
As President Trump spends billions of dollars for his aggressive and foolish war of choice in Iran, congressional Republicans are handing him billions more to fund ICE chaos in our communities.
The GOP has a destructive agenda.
The American people don’t want the oligarchs’ war in Iran and ICE’s war in our streets. We want affordable health care for every family.
Who exactly are President Trump and Speaker Johnson fighting for? Not us.
President Trump doesn't care whether you can afford health care, rent or groceries. He has no plan for America’s working families. Instead, the president fills his time settling political scores and litigating beach sea shell messages from nine months ago.
In honor of National Poetry Month, this week's Local Hero is the ebullient Sosena Audain, Montgomery County's 2026 Youth Poet Laureate. We celebrate Sosena’s wonderfully creative artistry. Please listen in as she shares a live reading of one of her moving poems.
More than 20,000 Ukrainian children have been abducted by Russian forces since the start of Putin's bloody war. America must work to secure the return of these missing kids to their families and freedom for the Ukrainian people.
Today we’re mourning the loss of our dear colleague Rep. David Scott. In his more than two decades in Congress, David was a fighter for farmers across the country and the people of Georgia's 13th Congressional District. May his memory be a blessing to our country.
On Earth Day, we celebrate our natural environment, including the beautiful public spaces in Maryland's Eighth District. Let’s recommit ourselves to protecting our dazzling natural resources so they can be enjoyed by future generations.

Rep. Jamie Raskin is demanding that Kash Patel submit to an alcohol abuse screening:
"For the sake of our own security, we need to know, for example, 'how many drinks containing alcohol do you have on a typical day when you are drinking'?"
