Yesterday, I joined more than 100 of my colleagues in signing a discharge petition to force a House vote on TSA funding.

Last week, I forced a vote in the Rules Committee to fund DHS, except for ICE. Every Republican in Congress voted to block it.
Nevertheless, we persevere!
Democrats have repeatedly offered to fund TSA and the rest of DHS while Congress negotiates reforms to ICE and Border Patrol.
Republicans have refused.
Democrats are ready to fund FEMA, TSA, and Coast Guard, but Republicans are prolonging a shutdown to shield ICE & CBP from reform.
I've joined my @housedemocrats.bsky.social colleagues in signing a discharge petition to get a vote to get workers paid.
The Supreme Court held a generation ago that this is a denial of equal protection to those children, in addition to being a supremely stupid and inhumane public policy.
Public schools are a crucial part of our social fabric and our economic prosperity.
The White House is pushing states to deny public education to children based on their immigration status.
Corporal Timothy O'Connor was a State Trooper tragically killed in the line of duty in Chester County, Pennsylvania.
Yesterday, I stood alongside members of the Pennsylvania Delegation on the House floor to honor his life, his service, and his sacrifice for our state.
Bovino's retirement is not enough; the White House needs to be held accountable for the atrocities that were committed under his watch.
But when the American people - and federal courts - made it clear that they would not tolerate his abuses, the White House cut him loose.
Greg Bovino led a deliberate campaign of lawlessness and terror in American cities and immigrant communities with the full approval and encouragement of this White House.
There have been over 40 deaths in ICE custody, including one of my constituents, since the beginning of the President's term. This is un-American. We need accountability now.
Mohommad Nazeer Paktyawal, an Afghan refugee who served alongside our servicemembers in Afghanistan, died less than 24 hours after being in ICE custody.
An Afghan man who served alongside US special forces and fled his native country after its takeover by the Taliban died over the weekend shortly after being detained by immigration authorities, according to his family and an advocacy group. https://cnn.it/4uxaXvs
I'm proud to represent a top-ten Congressional district with constituents of Irish heritage, and I wish everyone in PA-05 a joyful celebration with friends and family!
I attended the National Gala of the Friendly Sons and Daughters of St. Patrick to celebrate Irish heritage in Philadelphia and honor the longstanding friendship between the U.S. and Ireland.
Fresh evidence that this White House works for Wall Street, NOT the American people:
Gas prices are going through the roof, and this administration doesn't know the difference between Reality and Reality TV.
They have no plan, no goals, and no objective.
They're continuing a war based on their own vibes, while our servicemembers' lives hang in the balance.
I'm proud to have worked alongside the IAFF to achieve this win.
It was an honor to speak at the IAFF Legislative Conference after my bill, the Honoring Our Fallen Heroes Act, was signed into law.
The families of our fallen and permanently disabled firefighters and other first responders have waited far too long to get the benefits they deserve.
Republicans control the federal government, and they're refusing to put Americans' interests first.
Democrats are trying to pass bills in the House and Senate to fund every part of DHS except ICE.
Republicans are blocking those bills, forcing TSA agents to go without pay and causing massive disruptions at our airports.
