Housing is a human right. That’s why Rep. Shontel Brown and I introduced a resolution calling for urgent federal action to expand affordable housing, strengthen rental assistance, and protect tenants. Because every family deserves a safe, affordable place to call home.
Each June, I wear orange to honor survivors, remember lives lost, and stand with those working to end gun violence. Thank you, @mcbath.house.gov, for your courageous leadership. We must keep fighting to end this national epidemic. #WearOrange
Trump’s one, big ugly bill will hurt every American — Republican or Democrat. These aren’t just numbers, these are people’s lives. On today’s Democratic Daily Download, @reptroycarter.bsky.social breaks down how it will hurt Louisiana and all Americans.
Trump’s One Big Ugly Bill means higher payments, fewer protections, and more debt traps for student loan borrowers. The average borrower would pay ~ $200 more each month—all to fund billionaire tax breaks. College just got less affordable thanks to Trump and House Republicans.
Today, I met with Ohio REALTORS to discuss legislation that will ensure more hardworking Ohioan families have access to safe, affordable housing. With prices on the rise and dwindling supply, we need more — not less — tools in our toolbox to solve the nation's housing crisis.
I was delighted to serve as Honorary Host Committee Co-Chair of the 36th Financial Services Conference, hosted by the National Association of Securities Professionals. Thank you, NASP for working to expand opportunities for diverse financial services professionals!
This year, Republicans have accelerated attacks against the LGBTQI+ community. As a member of the Equality Caucus, I'm proud to be part of the fight against bigotry. Pride is a reminder that love is love, and equality is for everyone.
Last week at a local food pantry, I heard the same concerns echoed by anti-hunger advocates. That’s why House Democrats launched the Democratic Daily Download—to break down what’s really happening in Washington and how we’re fighting back.
On today’s Democratic Daily Download, @sylviagarcia.house.gov highlights how Republican cuts to SNAP in the One, Big Ugly Bill will strain our food banks and leave families in our communities behind.
Trump calls it “beautiful”—but his budget is brutal. 💔 Over 400,000 Ohioans could lose health care. 🥣 Food aid slashed for families, seniors & vets. 💸 Billionaires win. Everyone else loses. I'll keep fighting back—because Ohio deserves better.
On today’s Democratic Daily Download, @repbeatty.bsky.social breaks down Trump’s One Big Ugly Bill — a nightmare ripping food and care from millions. House Republicans pushed it through while you were sleeping because they don’t want you to know what’s in it.
🚨WATCH: I joined Doug Petcash to talk about how the Republicans’ so-called “One Big Ugly Bill” would devastate health care for Ohioans. They say Medicaid’s untouched—but don’t be fooled. Their budget means the largest Medicaid cut in history. 🔗Watch the full segment HERE: bit.ly/45y3VfL.
Here, at Broad Street Presbyterian Church's Food Pantry, communities are stepping up for their neighbors. But Republicans’ budget bill devastates those efforts—stripping critical resources from Ohio families. The Senate must reject it. Families, seniors, veterans > billionaire tax breaks.
Today, I visited the food pantry at Broad Street Presbyterian Church to see how Columbus is addressing food insecurity. After, I remembered the families who will lose their food benefits, due to the GOP budget bill. When Republicans fail to govern, it’s the community that has to pick up the pieces.
