The President is calling for the execution of his political opponents who have served our country honorably in Congress and our armed forces. His words have consequences. Political violence is always unacceptable. Surely our Republican colleagues can agree to condemn POTUS' calls for violence.

On Transgender Day of Remembrance, we mourn the lives lost to acts of discriminatory violence against our transgender community and commit ourselves to ending all forms of bigotry and hate in our country.

Dismantling the Department of Education and reassigning programs will create unnecessary chaos, bureaucracy, and costs. Instead of gutting programs that serve children, and cutting taxes for billionaires, the administration should focus on lowering costs for all Americans.

Trump Administration Announces Steps to Dismantle Education Department

The American people won when the House and Senate voted to release all the Epstein files. Then @houserepublicans.bsky.social showed their priorities by voting for a bill that would raise energy prices for millions of Americans right after dining with the Crowned Prince of Saudi Arabia.

The Trump admin promised to support American shipbuilding & stand up to China's unfair trade practices, now they're backing down on their promise & selling out American workers. As a part of @laborcaucus.house.gov, I'm demanding that the president stop backtracking & protect American shipbuilding.

I joined @davids.house.gov to demand that the Speaker bring a vote to extend the ACA tax credits for American families. Millions of Americans will see their healthcare premiums skyrocket & be unable to afford healthcare next year if we don't reverse the Medicaid cuts & extend the ACA tax credits.

Republicans have been trying to rig the census to benefit them politically since the first Trump administration. The Supreme Court ruled against them because the founders were clear that every person must be counted.

It was truly amazing to be at a candlelight vigil in solidarity with the Epstein survivors when word broke about the Senate's passage of the Epstein Files Transparency Act. Tears, cheers, and relief.

8 million Americans rely on SSI to survive. Cutting these benefits will plunge thousands of Americans, including disabled adults and children, into poverty. Rep. Danny Davis and I are demanding that the SSA provide the American people with information on how these cuts will impact them.

The American people will remember who tried to prevent the release of the Epstein files.

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govNov 18(source)

It should've never taken this long, but the House passed the Epstein Files Transparency Act. The Senate should pass it immediately without making changes and give justice to the survivors.

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govNov 18(source)

On first read, I thought this was the name of the plan THEY were proposing. It would be on brand, but they barely have “concepts of a plan.” Extend the ACA tax credits.

House GOP leaders pitch members on addressing ‘Unaffordable Care Act’

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govNov 18(source)

The government should not be a part of a cover up for the rich and powerful. The House and Senate must vote to release ALL the Epstein files without any amendments or loopholes. The survivors deserve justice.

“Under Trump's second presidency, the DOJ announced they were closing the investigation into Epstein's coconspirators and then transferred Ghislaine Maxwell into a prison camp, where it's well documented that she is receiving special treatment.”

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govNov 18(source)

Voting to give justice to the survivors, isn't a "tough call." It's the right thing to do. Wonder what's making it tough for the leader? thehill.com/homenews/sen...

Americans deserve a Congress that works to improve their health and lower their costs, not line the pockets of oil and gas executives at their expense.

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govNov 17(source)

Families in Pennsylvania and across the country are seeing their heating and electricity bills go up. Instead of focusing on lowering their costs, @houserepublicans.bsky.social wants to give handouts to special interests.
