Today I was honored by the Greater Memphis Chamber with a plaque commemorating my work, leadership, & steadfast commitment to Memphis. It has been wonderful working with the Chamber on projects that build up our community, like the $393.9M new I-55 Bridge. Grateful for the many years of teamwork.
Spoke on the House floor yesterday in support of the Benton MacKaye National Scenic Trail Feasibility Study Act, which I co-lead with @RepChuck & voted for. The 288-mile trail connects GA, TN & NC. This study is the first step toward potential National Scenic Trail status, the first one since 2009.
Visited Sweet Cheeks Diaper Ministry last week to learn how they support mothers and newborns with essentials like diapers and formula. These costs add up fast, which is why organizations like these are so important. Their volunteers bring dignity, comfort, and hope to families who need it most.
Exactly I don’t expect us to get a hearing in the Committee but it’s fact that John Roberts has been an awful chief justice. He’s been for the rich and the powerful and the Republicans.
And it’s good to be on record that he did these things in contravention of his job as chief justice .
Joined Mayor Young at PURE Academy to highlight the $1,031,000 in federal funding I secured for the Youth Violence Prevention Program. Grateful to hear from leaders at PURE Academy and Heal 901 and to see their inspiring work to keep our youth and community safe.
South Carolina Senate Does Not Act on New Midterm Map, Defying Trump www.nytimes.com/2026/05/26/u...
UNFORTUNATELY, TENNESSEE SENATORS WERE NOT AS BRAVE AND TRUE TO WHAT WAS BEST FOR TENNESSEE. HAVING ONE DEM WHEN THEY’LL BE A DEM PRESIDENT IS BEST FOR THE STATE
I joined colleagues in calling on the President to commute the sentences of people serving non-violent marijuana sentences. Too many lives have been derailed by outdated laws that no longer reflect our nation’s views— nearly 9 in 10 Americans support some form of legal marijuana.
This Memorial Weekend it is important we focus on the things that truly matter, like our duty to ensure the brave men and women who dedicated their lives to serving our country and defending our democratic values always receive the support they need.

If you care about voting rights, if you care about the Constitution, If you care about equality, liberty, and the future of democracy, watch this, please.
Nothing will change until we realize SCOTUS is a political arm of MAGA.

No sympathy for the devils
What a world we live in when such a crazy heartless, megalomaniac helps another crazy heartless, megalomaniac run our government
Trump wants taxpayers to subsidize a billion-dollar ballroom for Mar a-Lago culture at the White House while working families are being told there’s no money for housing, healthcare, or lowering costs. That's why I joined an amicus brief challenging this in court.
Ever wonder what you could do with $1.776 billion in Memphis? Trump wants to hand that out to his lackeys, but my colleagues and I introduced the No Taxpayer-Funded Settlement Slush Fund Act to stop him.
I introduced six Articles of Impeachment against Chief Justice John Roberts for compromising the credibility of the Supreme Court. See my release below.

Last night I joined Freedom House in celebrating 85 years of defending democracy. I was proud to see one of the freed prisoners, Vladimir Kara-Murza, who I championed as the envoy of the Helsinki Commision for political prisoners, a special part of my career.
Memphis has always been at the center of the fight for civil rights, and this is no different. Overturning the Voting Rights Act takes away from everything Dr. King bled and died fighting for. Alito, Thomas, and Roberts must be impeached.
I love Memphis. I represented Memphis. I fought for Memphis. I’ve lived and breathed Memphis all my life. These new maps don’t represent our city, which is why I am still fighting for Memphis in court.
