The world needs more Nita Loweys. I’m sending all my love to Nita’s beloved husband, Stephen, and her entire family. May her memory forever be a blessing.

I relied on her steady leadership and advice for so many years and marveled as she has navigated one of the most important positions in the entire Congress, Chairwoman of the House Appropriations Committee.
Nita will surely be missed, but she leaves a legacy behind that is second to none.
I’m truly heartbroken to hear about the passing of my dear friend and mentor, former Congresswoman Nita Lowey.
Nita was the foremost champion of human rights and enhanced the role of women in development.
Listen to the women, For the People.
All my love goes out to Raul’s family, friends, and staff. We will continue the fight in his honor.
I’m heartbroken to hear the news about my dear friend and colleague, Congressman Raúl Grijalva.
A guiding light in the halls of Congress, Raúl was a steadfast champion in the fight to protect our environment and ensure all people can have access to quality, affordable health care.
House Democrats stand united behind a four-week funding extension that stops harmful cuts to hardworking Americans, keeps the government open, and allows Congress to reach a bipartisan funding agreement.
I'm ready to vote today, tomorrow or Friday to pass a four-week extension.
For too long, greedy oil companies have been able to take advantage of a massive loophole that allows them to avoid paying taxes on tar sands oil.
I'm partnering with @markey.senate.gov to close this loophole and ensure Big Oil companies pay their fair share.
This week, I sent a letter to @FCC with 22 of my colleagues concerned about deteriorating quality of a program that helps deaf Americans make phone calls.
This community deserves high quality service and ASL interpreters deserve good working conditions and competitive wages.
Trump and Republicans are working hard every day to make your children's school worse and take away your health care so they can give tax cuts to billionaires.
The House GOP just passed a funding bill that gives President Trump and unelected billionaire Elon Musk power to steal from the middle class, seniors, veterans, working people, and small businesses to pay for billionaire tax cuts.
Trump is making life harder for working people.
Republicans are coming for your Social Security and Medicare. Don't believe me?
Here's President Musk admitting it. #HandsOffSocialSecurity
Good. This attempt by the Trump administration to arrest and deport a legal permanent resident over their speech is an alarming violation of immigration law and the first amendment, and will only make our Jewish communities less safe.
This fight isn’t just about policy—it’s a battle for human dignity and justice.
Since Roe v. Wade was overturned, anti-abortion extremists have relentlessly threatened and attacked patients and health care providers—blatantly violating federal law.
Instead of prosecuting these criminals, Trump and Republicans are trying to gut this critical protection.
We stand on the shoulders of courageous women who refused to give up. In their honor, we must and will persist.
Today, on International Women’s Day, we celebrate the outstanding achievements of women and girls in the US and across the globe.
Women of all ages, backgrounds, and nationalities are taking on leadership positions, fighting for basic human rights and equity.
How did the Trump administration mark National Consumer Protection week?
They let JP Morgan Chase, Wells Fargo, and Bank of America off the hook after scamming Americans out of $1 billion.
This administration cares more about feeding corporate greed than protecting consumers.
The numbers speak for themselves - don’t be fooled by the lies! The CBO confirmed that the GOP must cut Medicaid or Medicare to reach their $2 trillion budget proposal.
It's a shame that Trump & Congressional Republicans want to strip health care away from millions to pay for billionaire tax cuts.
NEW: Republicans cannot meet their own budget target without cutting Medicare or Medicaid, budget office says
The math is simple 👇
House Budget requires E&C to cut spending by $880 billion.
CBO says E&C oversees $581 billion outside Medicare/Medicaid.

It's time to #ScrapTheCap, enhance benefits, and resist as the GOP looks to steal your hard-earned money and use it for billionaire tax cuts.
