After a historic Republican delay, I am proud to celebrate Congresswoman Grijalva’s swearing-in as the newest Member of Congress and the 97th woman in the Democratic Caucus. Her passion for Arizona’s 7th District already shines—thrilled to welcome her to the House, where she belongs.

Health care is under attack, again. This Republican bill betrays working Americans and their families. Democrats are standing firm against it to stop the cuts, lower costs, and protect care for everyone who depends on it. I'm voting NO.

Rep. Joyce Beatty@repbeatty.bsky.socialNov 11(source)

Today, we honor the brave men and women who served our nation—those who came home and those who made the ultimate sacrifice. Your courage and service protect the freedoms we cherish. Thank you to all who have worn the uniform and to the loved ones who share them with us.

As Veterans Day approaches, the Trump Administration has continued efforts to diminish the contributions of Black veterans and weaken equity efforts at the VA. I’ve introduced two resolutions to honor their service, close racial gaps, and preserve their legacy: https://bit.ly/488b5by

Last Friday, President Trump said it would be his “honor” to fund food assistance. We’ve seen what a difference a week makes. Today, I joined @repjahanahayes.bsky.social to introduce the Keep SNAP and WIC Funded Act, to fully fund benefits for millions of Americans. 🔗Read more here: bit.ly/3JoEG7j

Beatty: “You can’t call yourself pro-family while starving families”

Rep. Joyce Beatty@repbeatty.bsky.socialNov 7(source)

Under the Trump administration and Republicans, the cost of groceries has only INCREASED, hurting Americans at the dinner table. And their delay in funding SNAP, only makes things worse. In the season of giving, why is the 'pro-family' party, stealing from American families?

Six weeks into the shutdown, some still ask why Democrats continue to stand firmly to protect your health care. My fall Beatty Bulletin takes you behind the scenes of that work and more—before and during the shutdown. Read it here: https://bit.ly/43fDxWd

Times are tough, and the Trump Administration has chosen not to fund November SNAP benefits. Ohioans shouldn’t go hungry in the richest country in the world. Columbus and Franklin County residents can find help here ⤵️ 🔗CITY Resources: https://bit.ly/4oKIKO0 🔗COUNTY Resources: bit.ly/CTYHELP

Rep. Joyce Beatty@repbeatty.bsky.socialNov 4(source)

Thanks to Republicans, Head Start — a CRITICAL lifeline for children and families throughout Ohio — has lost vital funding throughout the shutdown. Here's the hard truth of how it's affecting Franklin County. It's time Republicans put American families FIRST and reopen the government.

Thanks to Republicans, health insurance premiums in the Affordable Care Act marketplace are rising across the country. Ohioans, check out the link here to see how much your premiums have increased: https://bit.ly/4887D1b

Honoring the life and legacy of Les Wright, the first Black woman to serve on Columbus City Council. Her courage and leadership opened doors for generations of women and Black leaders, including myself. So grateful for the path she blazed. May she rest in power.
