As a @demwomencaucus.bsky.social member Mother’s Day is about more than flowers and sweets for me. It’s about fighting FOR moms — as Trump continuously attacks their ability to care for their children by gutting Head Start, food assistance and more to fund billionaire tax cuts. Not on my watch.

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

💐 Happy Mother's Day! To every mother, grandmother, bonus mom, and mother figure out there: thank you for your unwavering love, your resilience, and your care. You are the heart, the strength, and the steady hands of our communities.💐

This #PublicServiceRecognitionWeek, I’m celebrating federal workers—the engine of our democracy. You power the programs, protections, and progress that keep government working for the people. You bring our laws to life and provide stability across administrations. THANK YOU. 🇺🇸

I was deeply honored to be named the 2025 Lifetime Achievement Award recipient by NAWBO Columbus —an unexpected and truly meaningful surprise. Thank you, NAWBO, for building a sisterhood where women are empowered, equipped, and elevated!

Trump just fired Dr. Carla Hayden—the first Black woman Librarian of Congress—by email. No explanation. No respect. Her leadership was game-changing. Her dismissal is a disgrace.  📍 My full statement below ⬇️

Today, I blasted Sec. Bessent for failing to answer a simple question: What's the status of the Harriet Tubman $20 bill? He brushed me off with “my staff will get back to you." The people deserve answers, and I'm determined to get them. See the full exchange 🎥⤵️

Proud to host the 2nd Annual Financial Education Resource Fair with Rep. Young Kim. From saving to investing, we brought free tools to the Capitol—because financial literacy is the first step to building wealth.

Today, on #NationalNursesDay, we honor the heart and hustle of nurses everywhere. Earlier this year, I had the pleasure of talking with the National Black Nurses Association to thank them for all the hard work they do, saving lives with their compassionate care!

Today we honor the resilience, culture, and history of the Mexican people. Cinco de Mayo is more than a celebration — it’s a reminder of the strength found in unity and the power of standing up for freedom and dignity. ¡Feliz Cinco de Mayo!

This week, I had the pleasure of attending the Congressional Gold Medal Ceremony, honoring the leadership and service of the ‘Six Triple Eight’ women. A sincere congratulations to my friend, @repgwenmoore.bsky.social, on bringing this long-overdue recognition to fruition.

Rep. Joyce Beatty@repbeatty.bsky.socialMay 1(source)

Trump’s first 100 days in office have brought nothing but chaos and confusion for working families and other Americans. As Congressional Democrats navigate the damage on behalf of the American people, I urge all Americans to push back against this reckless, corrupt administration.

Rep. Joyce Beatty@repbeatty.bsky.socialMay 1(source)

I was honored to join a special luncheon celebrating the awarding of the Congressional Gold Medal to the Six Triple Eight— the only Black, all-female unit to serve in Europe during World War II. Thank you, @repgwenmoore.bsky.social, for introducing this bill that honors these incredible women!

Grateful to head into the week energized by the leadership and vision shown by Leader Jeffries and Senator Booker during this weekend’s sit-in. The fight continues to protect Medicare and critical safety net programs from Republican-led efforts to cut them, standing united with Americans.

Rep. Joyce Beatty@repbeatty.bsky.socialApr 26(source)

Alexis Herman was a trailblazer, a history-maker, and a true champion for justice and opportunity. As the first Black U.S. Secretary of Labor, she worked tirelessly to lift up workers and create more equitable workplaces for all. Please see my statement on her passing.

Rep. Joyce Beatty@repbeatty.bsky.socialApr 25(source)

Today, we are living through unprecedented times in American politics—our freedoms, liberties, and democratic institutions are under greater threat than ever before. I will continue to speak out and protest peacefully, while supporting legislative solutions to protect the soul of our nation.

Rep. Joyce Beatty@repbeatty.bsky.socialApr 24(source)

April marks National Minority Health Month—a time to reaffirm our commitment to closing racial health gaps across the country. In Congress, I'll continue to fight for policies that make equity the standard and promote culturally competent care.🩺 #NationalMinorityHealthMonth

Rep. Joyce Beatty@repbeatty.bsky.socialApr 22(source)

It was a pleasure to encourage the women of the AMOS initiative to speak out to protect the gov. services that have been a lifeline in our communities. Now, more than ever, our voices are needed to speak truth to power. 🔗To watch the full call to action, click the link HERE: youtu.be/CMeIAMNhxBo
