As the Trump Admin works to turn back the clock on civil rights, including fair housing laws, I joined Rep. Waters, @warren.senate.gov, and 100+ Democrats to demand an end to the illegal cuts being made at HUD that will exacerbate discrimination in housing.

Because President Trump and congressional Republicans are allowing the richest man in the world to recklessly gut school nutrition programs, more Missouri kids will go hungry and more Missouri farmers will struggle to sell their products.

Co-president Musk said last week that Social Security and the critical services provided by the Social Security Administration were on the chopping block, putting the benefits of America’s seniors at risk.
@housedemocrats.bsky.social will fight these cuts with everything we have.
“President Donald Trump’s whipsawing trade spat with America’s biggest trading partners has spurred high levels of uncertainty among consumers & businesses.
That skittishness has been evident across many consumer surveys and now shoppers seem to be adjusting their purchasing behavior accordingly.”
Wishing a very happy St. Patrick’s Day to everyone celebrating in #MO05!
Today, while we honor Irish American tradition, culture, and heritage, I hope all those observing have a chance to celebrate with family and friends.
Proud to stand with civil servants in #MO05 and across the Kansas City region this weekend.
Together, we will fight back against the illegal purge of hardworking federal employees who provide essential services to our neighbors and fellow Americans.
My thoughts and prayers are with the families devastated by the horrific storm systems that ripped across the U.S. this weekend.
As we mourn the tragic losses, let us come together to support those in need.

Because Americans pushed back against the Trump Administration’s lawlessness, thousands of public servants will keep their jobs & hardworking families will be able to obtain the services they need.
Together, we all must continue to fight back against the effort to purge America’s civil service.
Happy Holi to all those observing in #MO05 and around the world!
As we celebrate the arrival of spring, may this day bring you joy and happiness by enjoying the festival of colors with friends and family.
Couldn’t agree more with @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social.
The extremely partisan Republican CR will slash benefits for America’s veterans while letting DOGE off the leash to continue eviscerating benefits for other American families.
Every Democrat should vote NO!
I’m heartbroken over the passing of Raúl Grijalva, a dear friend and a relentless fighter for the people of Arizona and America.
As we grieve this tremendous loss, I extend my deepest condolences to his family, friends, and staff.
May his memory be a blessing.
The GOP control the House, the Senate, and the White House.
They chose to exclude Democrats from the process and instead passed an extremely partisan bill that cuts veterans benefits, nutrition assistance, and more.
@housedemocrats.bsky.social will not be extorted into supporting this madness.
Any attempt to privatize the USPS would be a betrayal to the more than 640,000 postal employees who work tirelessly every day to ensure mail is delivered to every corner of the country.
I joined @budzinski.house.gov & 150+ Democrats to condemn USPS privatization efforts by the Trump administration.
I’m pleased the Trump Administration has resumed aid and intelligence sharing with Ukraine, which is essential to deterring Putin and his despicable invasion of a sovereign nation.
We must continue to #StandWithUkraine in the fight for freedom.
The richest man in the world wants to slash benefits Americans have spent a lifetime working toward.
While President Trump and Congressional Republicans are enabling these efforts, @housedemocrats.bsky.social are fighting to protect these vital programs for the people!
President Trump’s purge of the Department of Education is an attempt to dismantle the public education system that has made the U.S. a global leader in scientific research and created economic prosperity for millions of Americans.
All to fund a tax cut that overwhelming benefits the wealthiest 1%.
Always a pleasure to sit down with city leaders from #MO05 to discuss how Congress can support local initiatives that will strengthen economic development and public safety for Missouri families.
Thanks to Mayor DeLong of North Kansas City and Mayor Baird of Lee’s Summit for your time this week!
I voted against the GOP's partisan CR, which would cut nearly $23 billion in veterans’ benefits, slash funding for healthcare and affordable housing, and enable DOGE to continue cutting essential services & public servants.
My full statement here:

President Trump and Elon Musk claim to be “cutting waste and fraud.”
In reality, they’re gutting services that families rely on, like nutrition programs for kids and public schools, while hurting local farmers in the process.
www.politico.com/news/2025/03...
The Trump Admin’s detention and attempted deportation of Mahmoud Khalil, without charging him with a crime, is a chilling assault on the First Amendment and every American’s right to free speech.
Whatever you think of his views, stripping him of his rights makes it easier to strip you of yours.
