While you were sleeping, House Republicans passed another cruel and reckless bill—AGAIN. They slashed billions from PBS, NPR and global assistance Congress ALREADY APPROVED. I voted NO against Trump’s DOGE disaster. Read my statement: 👉 bit.ly/4lUtblo

Public radio and TV stations that air local sports are on the chopping block in the Republican rescissions bill. The Senate passed it at 2 a.m. last night—while you were sleeping. Another late-night vote to slash what our communities rely on. The House could be up next tonight—stay tuned.

Rep. Joyce Beatty@repbeatty.bsky.socialJul 17(source)

Republicans' likely approval of President Trump's recissions package tonight isn’t just a rubber stamp of DOGE’s devastating cuts – it’s an attack on the resources Americans were promised and House Republicans voted for.

As Republicans push Trump’s rescissions to slash humanitarian aid, the State Dept is set to waste $100K destroying 500 metric tons of food. Food that could feed the hungry and boost global stability. Tell me—who’s really wasting taxpayer dollars? Make it make sense.

Rep. Joyce Beatty@repbeatty.bsky.socialJul 17(source)

Efforts from the Trump Admin to slash funding for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB), is an attack on the educational resources Ohioans rely on. That's why I joined a letter with Rep. Betty McCollum and 45 Members of Congress, urging Trump to reconsider. 🔗See more here! bit.ly/4eYCoXI

Hey Members, see your staff here? 👀 They might work for you, but yesterday, they were #TeamBeatty! 😉 Staffers are what help make the Hill run — proud to have gathered with these young people for a briefing on the challenges facing Black men and boys and the solutions we can explore together!

Rep. Joyce Beatty@repbeatty.bsky.socialJul 16(source)

Yesterday, I joined the Moriah Group for a briefing detailing challenges Black men and boys face in our country. Thank you to the Moriah Group for organizing this important event!

15 years ago, Dodd-Frank became law — protecting consumers and holding Wall Street accountable after the 2008 crash hit hardworking families. While Republicans try to turn back the clock and risk another crisis, Democrats are fighting to preserve the protections that safeguard our financial system.

Physical therapists save lives! I ran into two incredible physical therapists, advocating for long term solutions to protect access to critical care. Thank you, Aimee and Jessica, for everything you do! 🩺

I marched with John Lewis in Selma, Washington & Dayton for voting rights. This week, 5 years after his passing, that fight continues. Congress must pass the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act & the Freedom to Vote Act. 🎥 Watch my floor remarks calling for action: youtu.be/BNSAihUDRjw

Trump & House Republicans promised to lower costs. They lied. See how their budget raises costs on residents in our district to support billionaire tax breaks. ❌ Health care, food aid—gone for many 🎓 Higher Education—less affordable & accessible for others Some measures kick in this October.

House Democrats’ Democratic Daily Download is our latest way to cut through the noise and share what’s really happening in Washington. Listen as my colleague Rep. Laura Friedman breaks down what’s buried inTrump’s new law. For our district (OH-03) the Affordable Care Act premium increase is 48%.

On today’s Democratic Daily Download, @friedman.house.gov breaks down the top three things you need to know about the Republicans’ One Big, Ugly Bill — from kicking 17 million off their health care to making life harder for parents, all to fund tax breaks for the ultra-rich.

On July Fourth, we remember America’s declaration of freedom and the ideals of liberty, equality, and democracy. But the fight to fulfill those ideals for all is not over. I will continue doing my part to advance justice and freedom for all.

Rep. Joyce Beatty@repbeatty.bsky.socialJul 3(source)

I am disheartened that Republicans' dangerous budget bill has now passed in Congress. The harms of this bill on Americans cannot be overstated. Despite today’s outcome, House Democrats will continue to fight for the people, not the powerful. beatty.house.gov/media-center...

Congresswoman Joyce Beatty Statement on the Passage of the Republican “One Big Ugly” Budget Bill

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Congresswoman Joyce Beatty (OH-03) today issued the following statement regarding the passage of the Republican “One Big Ugly” budget bill:

Rep. Joyce Beatty@repbeatty.bsky.socialJul 3(source)

With lives on the line, @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social spent nearly 9 hours on the House floor, breaking the record for the longest speech in House history. He did it to delay a cruel vote and push back on a bill gutting Medicaid, food aid, student loan help, and more. A valiant stand for the people.

Rep. Joyce Beatty@repbeatty.bsky.socialJul 3(source)

We're fighting with the stories of the American people against what would be the largest cut of Medicaid and nutritional assistance in American history. Lives are at stake and House Republicans should know who they're betraying and how.

Every single House Democrat will stand up for the American people. We just need four Republicans to join us.

Rep. Joyce Beatty@repbeatty.bsky.socialJul 3(source)

Thank you @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social and my @housedemocrats.bsky.social colleagues for the love and the fight. I showed up because our communities deserve it—and because that's what we do. We rise. We fight back. We lead by example.💪🏾

Rep. Joyce Beatty@repbeatty.bsky.socialJul 3(source)

I’ve been on the House Floor since the early hours this morning, standing with House Democrats to fight back against Republicans’ One Big Ugly Bill. This isn’t just a debate. It’s a fight for families, for fairness, and for our future. 💪🏾

Rep. Joyce Beatty@repbeatty.bsky.socialJul 2(source)

Today, I stood with House Democrats in solidarity against the Republican's ‘One, Big, Ugly Bill’ that will strip healthcare AND food aid from countless families in Ohio and across the country. Make no mistake: this bill is inhumane. And the ripple effects will be felt by everyone.
