Innocent civilians are facing a humanitarian crisis in Gaza—and it’s imperative that the United States ensure desperately needed aid is getting to those in need.
That’s why I joined @jayapal.house.gov and 90+ Democrats in calling on the administration to do more.

At a time when Americans are already struggling with the housing affordability crisis, the Trump Administration is working to rip rental assistance away from vulnerable families.
It’s a dangerous step that will lead to more homelessness nationwide.
www.npr.org/2025/06/04/n...
On World Environment Day, we are reminded of our duty to be good stewards of our planet, responsible for protecting God’s green Earth for generations to come.
Every sustainable action that we take today ensures that our natural wonders will be available for our progeny to enjoy.
The President’s recklessness is hurting Missouri workers, local seniors, and families who depend on vital services from the Social Security Administration, USDA, and more.
That’s why I’ve been sounding the alarm for months—and will continue to push back.

“Across federal agencies in Kansas City, call times are rising, benefits are delayed, and workers are walking out the door due to job cuts coming out of Washington.”
The President's reckless cuts to the federal workforce in KC are already creating chaos.

“I’m terrified that further red tape throughout the system will disrupt my daughter’s care and put her health in jeopardy”
This is the point of the GOP's Big Ugly Bill—to rip healthcare away from families by tripping them up through added bureaucracy.
www.kcur.org/health/2025-...
16 million Americans lose healthcare.
Millions more are kicked off nutrition programs.
$2.4 trillion in additional debt for our kids and grandkids.
All so Donald Trump and Republican billionaires can get another massive tax cut.
The worst con ever committed on the American people.
New CBO numbers out on the Big Beautiful Bill and it creates $2.4 trillion in deficits over a decade.
www.cbo.gov/publication/...
The GOP's Big Ugly Bill will rip healthcare away from 16 million Americans, slash food assistance programs that support families, and remove school lunch programs that benefit kids nationwide.
And it will still add trillions to the deficit because of the massive tax cut they’re giving to the top 1%
President Trump said he would drain the swamp and fight for working class families.
Instead, he’s working to rip healthcare away from 16 million Americans and take food off the table of millions more—all while giving handouts to his billionaire donors.
Secretary Hegseth and President Trump tried to erase the legacy of Jackie Robinson and his service to the nation—and now they’re working to erase the legacy of Harvey Milk, a trailblazer who also served in uniform.
This politicization of the military must end.
abcnews.go.com/Politics/heg...
Ripping healthcare away from millions of working class families through cuts to Medicaid isn’t enough.
Now, the Trump Administration is trying to rip essential reproductive care away from women nationwide, threatening the lives of expecting mothers in every community.
“As declining federal aid and uncertainty surrounding tariffs stifle donations of excess food from manufacturers, hunger relief groups are struggling to keep up.
Now they are bracing for proposed federal cuts to [SNAP], which would drive even more people to food pantries and meal sites."
“The fallout from Trump’s tariff policy, elevated economic policy uncertainty, a slowdown of net immigration and a smaller federal workforce were cited as reasons for the latest downgrade.”

I have always supported LIHEAP for the more than 130,000 Missouri households who participate in the program, saving these families an average of $1,500 per year.
And I will continue to fight for the preservation of this program.
cleaver.house.gov/media-center...
LIHEAP is an essential program that helps millions of working class families lower their energy costs so they can keep the heat on in the dead of winter and A/C blowing in the dog days of summer.
Shameful to see the president fighting to kill the program.

There are spaces where deregulation is necessary to lower costs for small businesses—but that’s not what DOGE & the richest man in the world are doing.
They’re removing protections for consumers, allowing giant corporations to continue ripping them off.
www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/u...
The President & Republicans in Congress are flagrantly lying about their Big Ugly Bill.
It will rip healthcare & food assistance away from millions of Americans.
It will explode the deficit.
All to fund tax cuts that overwhelmingly benefit the top 1%.
www.nytimes.com/2025/06/02/u...
The latest GOP Tax Scam hands huge tax breaks to billionaires while slashing health care and basic needs programs for working class people.
And Republicans in Congress couldn’t care less about the horrific impact it will have on the health of their constituents.
Congressional Republicans are cutting taxes for billionaires while eliminating tax credits that lower healthcare costs for working class families.
Millions of Americans will lose health coverage because of these cruel policy decisions.

Happy #Pride!
As a proud Member of @equality.house.gov, I'm working every day in Congress toward a more equal future and fighting to defend the LGBTQI+ community from attacks on their freedom and civil rights.
