I’m saddened to hear about the passing of Rep. Sylvester Turner. He was a true gentleman, a dedicated champion for the people of Houston, and leaves behind an extraordinary legacy of service. May he rest in peace.
The Museum of Contemporary Art in North Miami has been a cornerstone of creativity and cultural exchange for decades. I was proud to attend their Gala recently and present a Congressional Record to William Lehman Jr. and Didier William for their commitment to art and our community.
My thoughts and prayers are with the entire Díaz-Balart family as they mourn the loss of Lincoln Díaz-Balart. He was a kind soul, a true champion for freedom, and someone who cared deeply for the South Florida community. May he rest in peace.
BREAKING: Lincoln Díaz-Balart, a Cuban-American Republican politician who defended immigrants and fiercely opposed Fidel Castro’s regime to help restore democracy in his native Cuba while serving for almost two decades in Congress representing South Florida, died on Monday at 70.
Putin must be celebrating right now. What we saw in the Oval Office today was a disgrace. America is less safe, and we betrayed Ukraine, our allies, and our core values. History will not forget us siding with dictators and murderers over defenders of democracy.
First, Republicans came after MEDICAID — now they’re coming after SOCIAL SECURITY. Firing the workers who PROCESS Social Security checks means seniors DON’T GET the benefits they EARNED. Plain and simple.
The rescission of Haitian TPS is outrageous! I led my Congressional colleagues in objecting the administration’s decision and I urge them to reverse their decision immediately because sending folks back to Haiti is a kiss of death.
Every Wednesday is #WearBlueWednesday, and I’ll keep wearing blue until every hostage is home because enough is enough! I stand with the South Floridians who came to my office in DC because they too know it’s time to #BringThemHomeNow! 🎗️
13 years ago, Role Model Trayvon Martin was murdered in a in a brutal act of racial profiling. He should have been alive and with us today. I still love you Trayvon and today, I continue to fight against racism and injustice in his memory.
I just came off the House floor and voted ‘NO’ on Republicans’ draconian budget scheme that cuts Medicaid and SNAP to fund tax cuts for their billionaire donors. The American people deserve better! This budget fight isn’t over and we must keep the pressure high on Republicans!
My heart goes out to ALL the civil servants Elon Musk has been firing—dedicated workers with bills to pay and families to support. Yet, Republicans sold out our government to an unelected billionaire, uprooting the lives of countless folks for campaign checks. SHAME!
Elon Musk doesn’t have a damn clue what he’s doing. Firings at Federal Aviation Administration hurts your travel safety. Firings at Defense Department hurts our national security. Firings at Consumer Financial Protection Bureau hurts your wallet.
Republicans want to slash Medicaid to reward their billionaire donors with tax breaks. I won’t vote for Medicaid cuts to help their billionaire donors—and Democrats only need three House Republicans to stop it. Republicans know better. It’s time they grow a spine.
The administration is waging war on federal workers—firing thousands from the VA, FAA, Education Department, IRS & more. These mass layoffs don’t just disrupt lives; they hurt veterans, students, public services, and public safety. Taxpayers will be the ones who pay the price.
I am prepared to take immediate action to try to fight this order because we cannot be in the business of deporting over 500,000 Haitian people, many of whom I represent, back to a country that is still riddled with gang violence and instability. It’s wrong, wrong, wrong!
