I cannot in good conscience support a partisan budget bill that will cause my constituents in Missouri to see their healthcare costs skyrocket—which is precisely what this legislation would do.
My full statement on my vote against the partisan CR here:
After making the largest cut to Medicaid in history, Republicans are now working to eliminate tax credits that help hardworking families afford their health coverage
If they succeed, 46,000 people in #MO05 will see their annual healthcare costs skyrocket by an average of 109%
I won’t support that
Democrats will not support the reckless Republican assault on Americans’ healthcare, including the partisan CR that will drive up prices for Missouri families.
The GOP must come back to the table & negotiate a bipartisan budget bill that lowers costs & meets the needs of our communities.
Had a great discussion with Rep. Flood & @upforgrowthaction.bsky.social about our bipartisan work to address America’s national housing affordability crisis.
The American people are demanding action to lower the cost of housing—and we won’t stop fighting to make that a reality.
The president and House Republicans promised to lower the high cost of living.
Instead, their tariff taxes and Big Ugly Bill are raising prices, killing good-paying jobs, and making life harder for American families.
With roughly 600,000 Americans impacted by PKD across the U.S., we must take action to raise awareness and combat this disease.
That's why Rep. Graves and I introduced a resolution to designate September as National Polycystic Kidney Disease Awareness Month.

Democrats are committed to passing a bipartisan budget that will prevent a harmful Republican shutdown and a massive spike in healthcare costs for working class families.
My colleagues across the aisle must end the extreme partisanship and come back to the table.
The Trump administration using the extraordinary power of the federal government to silence political opposition and undermine the free speech rights of American citizens and private businesses is dangerous and completely unacceptable.
Congress has the power of the purse and the power to enact taxes.
But Republicans continue to cede their own constitutional responsibilities to the president, allowing him to enact the largest tax hike on American families & small businesses in decades.

Our national housing affordability crisis is not a Republican issue or a Democratic issue—it’s an American issue.
That’s why I’m working with Rep. Flood to craft bipartisan solutions that will lower costs for families nationwide.
Great to sit down with NMHC to discuss our work.
Democracy demands compromise.
Republicans must come back to the table and negotiate a bipartisan funding bill that will ensure the needs of all our communities are met—not try to jam another partisan bill through Congress.
If Republicans do not extend ACA tax credits, Americans will see the largest jump in healthcare costs in years.
Families are already struggling to stay afloat—which is why Democrats are fighting to extend this relief for the people.

Cancer is a vicious disease that impacts Americans in every community and from every background.
The Administration’s effort to dismantle the nation’s infrastructure to research, treat, and ultimately cure cancer is extraordinarily shortsighted and deeply regrettable.
Withdrawing from the War on Cancer: an extraordinarily successful scientific research system that took decades to build, saved millions of lives and generated billions of dollars in profits is being dismantled in short order. @jonathanmahler.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2025/09/14/m...
All Americans should agree that political violence is completely unacceptable in the United States, and our political leaders have a responsibility to turn down the temperature.
We must listen to our better angels and not our worst demons.
The vast majority of Americans are sick of the nonstop division & hate that is driving our communities apart.
But instead of working to unite the country by condemning political violence in all forms, the admin is lying & stoking the flames of anger.
It’s extremely dangerous & deeply cynical.
“Virtually all major grocery categories are now more expensive than they were a year ago, some substantially so.”
The president said he would lower costs for hardworking families.
Instead, his tariff taxes are exacerbating our cost-of-living crisis.

Coffee. Beef. Prescription Drugs.
They’re all getting more expensive thanks to the president’s tariff taxes.

“Since President Trump imposed tariffs on Chinese goods in February, Beijing has retaliated by halting all purchases of American soybeans.
That decision has had devastating repercussions for farmers”
