Trump is scrambling to shut down the Kennedy Center after discovering that American artists and performers won't put up with his partisan takeover and unlawful renaming. And let’s be clear: a remodeling job won't restore the Kennedy Center to what it was. A return to artistic independence will.

Please see my statement in response to President Trump’s announced two-year closure of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts: https://bit.ly/3NRNPqL
As we begin Black History Month 2026, we celebrate 100 years of intentionally telling the full story of Black life in America. Black history is American history. It reflects resilience and resistance, creativity and courage, and continues to shape our shared future.

Eleanor Holmes Norton has served the District of Columbia and our nation with integrity, brilliance, and courage. Her impact is profound, and I am deeply grateful for her extraordinary service.
Today, I was proud to take part in the ribbon cutting for the Multispecies Animal Learning Complex (MALC) at OSU's College of Food, Agricultural, and Environmental Sciences. It will help launch careers in one of the state’s most essential and evolving industries. Congratulations to this team!
Today, in a roundtable with Mayor Ginther alongside Columbus faith leaders, elected officials, advocates, and more, we discussed the impact of the recent ICE enforcement in Columbus and reinforced our commitment to standing with our immigrant communities during these difficult times.
No one is above the law—not even a cabinet secretary. That's why, I am joining @robinkelly.house.gov in calling for the impeachment of DHS Secretary Noem. From obstructing Congress to violating the due process of Americans, the pattern of misconduct is clear. It’s time for accountability.
Today, on International Holocaust Remembrance Day, we solemnly honor the six million Jewish lives taken during the Holocaust. As history reminds us, “Evil prevails when good people fail to act.” I am committed to condemning antisemitism wherever it appears, and standing against hate in all forms.

Today, on his birthday, I remember my remarkable husband. Otto Beatty, Jr., Esq. devoted his life to justice and standing boldly. All of his efforts reflected his unwavering care for others. You are missed more than words can express, Otto, but your legacy continues. Happy heavenly birthday.
Today’s deadly shooting by ICE agents in Minneapolis shows an emerging and tragic pattern: these agents are becoming the greater danger to our communities than the people they claim to pursue for our protection.
Under HUD's proposed Continuum of Care Notice of Funding Opportunity, 10k Ohioans — families, children, veterans, and more — will lose their homes. Today, I confronted Sec. Turner about this drastic policy shift — he couldn't answer me. It's clear: the Trump Admin is worsening the housing crisis.
Trump’s effort to fire Fed Governor Lisa Cook is a power grab that threatens Fed independence and Americans’ economic security.
▶️ Watch my remarks from today’s House Democrats press conference: https://bit.ly/3LYEFYK.
Today, I stood with Ranking Member Maxine Waters and House Democrats at the Supreme Court ahead of oral arguments on Trump’s attempt to fire Fed Governor Lisa Cook. Our economy depends on an independent Fed guided by data, not political pressure, to protect businesses and family budgets.
Last year, Ohioans paid $1,532 more due to Trump's inflation. Trump promised to “bring down costs." Last week, he even claimed that “inflation is defeated" — but a year into his presidency, Ohioans are paying the price of his affordability crisis. When will he start prioritizing our families?
I was honored to join the City of Columbus' Annual Martin Luther King Jr. Day March and Program, in the spirit of Dr. King's march towards justice and equality. In these trying times, Dr. King's message inspires us to keep the fight, engage in our communities, and raise our voice for common change.
I was honored to join Columbus leaders and introduce the keynote speaker at this morning’s 41st Annual Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Breakfast. In our ongoing fight for Ohio's working families, I'm proud to have celebrated Dr. King's legacy with my community, while honoring the work that lies ahead.
