The people of Kansas City do not want to be a centerpiece to the administration’s cruel and extreme mass deportation policies.
This funding would be better served in support of true public safety initiatives—which is what I’ll continue pushing for.

Following reports that ICE intends to open an immigration detention center in Kansas City, I am condemning the decision and demanding more information.

Democrats in the House have done our job to lower health care premiums for millions of families by extending ACA tax credits.
But the president and Senate Republicans continue to drive up health care costs by blocking this critical legislation.
After nearly a year in office, inflation remains elevated as the cost of groceries, health care and every day goods continue to rise due to the president’s tariff taxes and regressive economic policies.
I won’t stop fighting to provide relief to hardworking Missouri families.
US inflation remained at 2.7% in December, underscoring persistent cost of living challenges https://cnn.it/4jGNovl
The administration’s funding freeze for child care centers across the country is creating chaos and threatening to drive up costs for families with young children.
Missouri families deserve better.

As millions of American families see their insurance premiums skyrocket due to Republican policies, @housedemocrats.bsky.social are fighting to extend ACA tax credits that lower health care costs.
The Senate must pass this bill NOW!

The Iranian people are bravely protesting by the thousands across the country.
I strongly condemn the Iranian government's violent response towards civilians, alleged attacks on hospitals, and cutting off internet access.
I urge the U.S. to work with our allies to support the will of the people.
The independence of the Federal Reserve is critical to the long-term health of the economy.
The administration’s attempt to pressure the Fed Chair into lowering rates by launching a baseless investigation is the kind of stuff seen in third world dictatorships.
Congress cannot allow this to stand.

“the agenda is taking resources away from targeting true public safety threats, whether from immigrants or Americans. ICE should redirect its resources back toward serious public safety threats.”

The president said he was going to revive manufacturing by enacting tariffs on our trading partners around the world.
Instead, these taxes have only driven up prices and killed good-paying manufacturing jobs nationwide.
Working-class families and blue-collar workers deserve better.
The first president since Herbert Hoover to lose jobs during a single term has now overseen the worst year of job growth outside a recession in more than two decades.
Just one day after ICE killed a mother and American citizen in Minneapolis, immigration officials shot two more people in Portland.
The administration is sowing chaos and endangering communities across the country—and Congress must take action to hold them accountable.

Missouri U.S. Rep. Emanuel Cleaver II joined Up To Date to discuss an ICE agent's killing of an observer in Minneapolis, the Trump administration's intervention in Venezuela, and a critical vote in Congress on Affordable Care Act subsidies.
2025 was the worst year for job growth outside of a recession in more than two decades.
The president’s reckless tariff taxes and regressive economic policies are driving up prices and killing good-paying jobs for American workers.
House Democrats and I have been fighting for months to save ACA tax credits and stop health care costs from soaring for working families.
Today, we successfully passed legislation to do just that.
Now, the Senate must ACT!

46,000 Missourians in #MO05 have seen their health care premiums skyrocket since Republicans allowed enhanced ACA tax credits to expire at the beginning of the year.
@housedemocrats.bsky.social and I are voting today to revive these tax credits and lower costs for hardworking families.
The actions of ICE are beyond disturbing.
They are also a tragic result of the administration’s reckless, aggressive, extreme, and intentionally inflammatory mass deportation policies.
Congress must immediately initiate an investigation into this horrifying killing of a civilian.
The president wants to put our troops in danger and waste taxpayer funding to boost the profits of his Big Oil donors.
But he refuses to extend ACA tax credits that help American families afford quality health care.

Last night, I was proud to stand with lawmakers at the U.S. Capitol to honor the law enforcement officials who defended our citadel of democracy five years ago.
Today and every day, we give thanks for their service and sacrifice to the nation.
Not only are the president’s tariff taxes raising costs on everyday essentials for hardworking families, but they continue to crush American manufacturers and small businesses.
Republicans in Congress must work with Democrats to put an end to this reckless experiment.
