I can’t support funding a status quo that accepts Trump’s illegal, immoral demolition of USAID. This minibus also fails to constrain the abject stupidity of Trump’s threats to attack Greenland, Mexico, Colombia, Cuba, etc. I will vote no. My statement: beyer.house.gov/news/documen...

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govJan 14(source)

House Democrats just DEFEATED a Republican bill to let employers deny overtime pay or minimum wage to workers if they classify time worked as "job training" or "education." 6 Republicans joined us and the vote failed; GOP leaders then cancelled votes on two more anti-labor bills.

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govJan 13(source)

Trump is drunk on power and pushing our country toward more endless wars, and Republicans refuse to rein in his foolish militarism, erratic expansionism and self-dealing. I will keep fighting for accountability, peace, and the rule of law alongside my Democratic colleagues.

Congress has a good opportunity to renew AGOA and Haiti trade preference programs that expired last year, and we should take it. These programs spurred investment in emerging markets, growing their economies and lowering our prices. My statement for @newdems.bsky.social:

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govJan 13(source)

Jerome Powell won’t bow to Trump’s pressure to dramatically slash interest rates, which would drive up inflation. So, Trump is turning to his pattern of abusing the Justice Department to intimidate, silence, or even jail him, just as he’s done to other political opponents.

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govJan 12(source)

And the corollary: pardons and non-prosecutions for the president's friends and allies. This kind of corruption is the hallmark of criminal justice systems in countries you don't want to live in.

Under President Trump, the EPA will stop considering lives saved when setting pollution limits and instead calculate only the cost to businesses. It’s counter to the agency’s mission statement, which says has a core responsibility to protect human health and the environment. nyti.ms/3Loch27

Trump's phony investigation of Fed Chair Powell on made up charges jeopardizes Fed independence, a key to our economic success. It's part of a larger pattern of Trump trying to prosecute and jail those who cross him—thuggish, autocratic behavior that threatens our democracy.

Takeaways from this morning's December jobs report: - Negative job growth in the final quarter of 2025 - The worst year for job growth outside a recession in 20+ years - Manufacturing jobs plummeting - Barely any job growth since Trump announced tariffs This is not good.

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govJan 9(source)

Leaders in the party that once claimed to stand for individual freedom and limited government now say if you don’t do what the masked men say, regardless of whether their orders are legal or contradictory, you won’t “get to keep your life.” They may kill you without trial.

December jobs numbers are out: Employment continues to slow, and we added +50k jobs. The unemployment rate fell a tick to 4.4%. Oooph, revisions are brutal: October revised down -68k to -173k; November revised down -8k to +56k. Remember: The Fed thinks these numbers are overstated by 60k.

The first year of Trump's economy, wrapped: > "The worst year for job gains outside of a recession since 2003." www.cnn.com/2026/01/09/e...

US economy added 50,000 jobs in December, capping off one of the weakest years of job gains in decades | CNN Business

Hiring slowed more than expected in December, marking a sluggish end to what was one of the weakest years of job growth in decades.

Every day more Americans are hurt by the Republican health care crisis. But Democrats put forward this bill to help the American people by extending health care tax credits, and forced a vote on it. Thanks to a few sensible colleagues on the other side, that bill just passed.

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govJan 8(source)

The Trump Administration is brazenly lying to justify murder, telling us to ignore what we've seen on video. We must honor Renee Good's memory by demanding justice and accountability. Congress and authorities must investigate and hold the perpetrators accountable. youtube.com/shorts/ztv6W...

The FBI must work with the professionals at the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension to conduct a thorough and transparent investigation of the shooting of Renee Nicole Good by an ICE officer yesterday. This has to be about justice, not politics.

Ilhan Omar@ilhanmn.bsky.socialJan 8(source)

Thousands of Minnesotans gathered last night to honor Renee Nicole Good. We will never accept that a single federal agent can be judge, jury, and executioner in our streets. ICE needs to get out of Minneapolis.

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govJan 8(source)

Everyone should ask why the Trump Administration keeps lying about this — why they are telling you to disbelieve your own eyes. An American citizen in a peaceful neighborhood gunned down by masked agents sent there to make people afraid. The Vice President’s lies are despicable.
