Rev. Jesse Jackson, Martin Luther King III, Rev. Al Sharpton, Hakeem Jeffries, Maxine Waters, Nikema Williams, Jonathan Jackson, Terri Sewell, other congresspeople and the 5000 Role Models of Excellence marched across the Edmund Pettis Bridge to mark the 60th anniversary of Bloody Sunday.
I represent South Florida—where our community’s existence depends on clean water. As the top Democrat on the Water Resources and Environment Subcommittee, I will always stand up for our environment. We cannot let the Republicans jeopardize our clean water.
It’s about damn time we raise teacher pay. Our teachers deserve at least 60K—that’s why I’m leading the fight to raise their pay with the American Teacher Act. As a former teacher and principal, I know they work too hard not to earn a living wage. It’s time for change.
Elon Musk has made it CRYSTAL CLEAR that he wants to SLASH Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid. This unelected billionaire is the one Republicans have ceded all their power to in exchange for campaign donations. SHAME!
Elon Musk has made clear that he wants to cut Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid. The House Republican partisan funding bill utterly fails to protect these vital benefits. That's why Democrats are united to stop it.
Republicans want to take a chainsaw towards Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, and SNAP. They rather would risk a government shutdown to hurt working families than to work with Democrats. Absolute shame!
Today’s partisan budget gives the Administration and Elon Musk a blank check to slash to health care programs, cut public school funding, gut affordable housing, and more. I voted ‘no’ today because I won’t be part of Republicans’ slash and burn effort.
The Republicans worked so hard to gain control of the House, the Senate, and the White House. Now, with all this power, in today’s partisan funding bill, Congressional Republicans handed it over to an unelected billionaire who cares only about himself, not the American people.
Charter and private schools cherry pick and refuse entry to any child they don’t want to enroll. They take the brightest and the best while public schools have to educate everyone, regardless of the circumstances, even with far less funding.
Black men are less likely to collect social security than White men due to lower life expectancy. This is an issue the U.S. Commission on the Social Status of Black men and boys is actively investigating to ensure more Black men live to collect their social security benefits.
On this International Women’s Day, I reaffirm my commitment to advocating for women and girls everywhere. Every woman, no matter where she’s from, deserves the opportunity to thrive. And our voices and power as women remain more important than ever before.
Today marks 60 years since “Bloody Sunday,” when brave activists marched in Selma against brutal opposition. Their struggle reminds us that the fight for justice is ongoing. I proudly support the John Lewis Voting Rights Act and will always stand for justice and voting rights.
I was proud to meet with the Metro-Dade Firefighters Local 1403 in my office here in D.C. I am so grateful to all the firefighters who keep us safe every single day in Miami-Dade County and I’m committed to fighting for them.
Democrats will always stand with our Veterans and fight to protect Medicaid and Social Security. I’ve listened to the stories of Veterans whose benefits have been put on the chopping block, and I’m fighting to make sure they get every bit of the care and support they’ve earned.
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.
