Freezing funding for Planned Parenthood would hurt countless patients and millions of people who won’t be able to get the health care they need – birth control, cancer screenings, STI testing and treatment, or even wellness exams. The cruelty agenda continues. www.wsj.com/politics/pol...
The Trump administration is canceling hundreds of grants aimed at delivering cleaner air and water for communities nationwide. This is clearly illegal and harmful to the health of people everywhere. Proud to lead a letter with @epw.senate.gov demanding these vital grants be reinstated.
Information is classified for a reason. Irresponsibly sharing very clear war plans via group chat could have gotten our troops killed. This time, we averted a tragedy. Hegseth wasn't qualified for the job before his nomination, and he certainly isn't now.
The Trump administration just halted nearly 20 truckloads of food to help feed hungry Delawareans. That’s 900,000 meals taken away from the Food Bank of Delaware. As grocery prices continue to squeeze our communities, this decision will mean countless families lose access to their next meal.
@uspostal.bsky.social isn’t a business - it’s a popular and essential service millions of Americans count on for everything from prescriptions to paychecks. This ultra-rich, out-of-touch admin just doesn’t get it: the point of government is supporting people, not profit.
A paper emerging from an open envelope reads "USPS signs agreement with DOGE after moving to cut 10,000 workers: 'Broken business model'
It’s been more than 50 years since the Equal Pay Act became law, but the gender pay gap hasn’t gone away. This Equal Pay day, I’m calling on my colleagues to join me and pass the Paycheck Fairness Act. It’s time we fulfilled our promise and made equal pay a reality.
A ‘mistake’ of this magnitude should be inconceivable, but for the most careless and chaotic cabinet in our nation’s history it’s not even all that surprising. Each day is further proof: we can’t trust this administration with our national security. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...
It’s so important for us to be forward thinking when preparing our kids to take on future challenges. Exciting to see how the Chemours STEM Hub at EastSide Charter School is providing students with extraordinary opportunities to explore the STEM fields at school.
15 years ago, the Affordable Care Act was signed into law. Every day since, Republicans have fought to repeal it — cutting millions off from care & handing control back to insurance companies. They're not letting up, but I'll never stop working to defend your access to care.
Great to start the day at @delstateuniv.bsky.social with the National Coalition of 100 Black Women - DE Chapter and @jotakaeaddy.bsky.social! This chapter has been SOWing the seeds of empowerment now for 30 years.  In this moment, today's Strength of A Woman roundtable was so inspiring.

It’s Preschool Teachers Appreciation Day, we should be celebrating our educators! But during my visit to the Latin American Community Center, our focus was on how, in Delaware, Trump’s funding freeze could shut 500 students & more than 1,000 families out of Head Start. It’s unacceptable.
The same day the SBA cuts 40% of staff, this administration puts them in charge of your student loans. This reckless decision won't just hurt our students, it'll hurt our small business owners too. They don’t care if government serves you, they only care that it serves them.
Trump announces that the Small Business Administration will immediately handle all federal student loans, and RFK Jr is now in charge of "handling special needs and all of the nutrition programs and everything else."
There is no higher calling than that to serve others. That’s why leaders across the country are joining @mealsonwheelsus.bsky.social for ride-alongs to celebrate the impact of their work. Loved starting yesterday morning off preparing and delivering meals for seniors in Lewes.
