Happy Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AAPI) Heritage Month! Diversity and inclusion is what makes this country special. I’m a proud ally to our AAPI community and will always fight for your right to health equity, education, and anti-discrimination.
This May is National Military Appreciation Month! I honor and recognize servicemembers and their families for their selfless contributions, sacrifices, and service. Thank you for protecting our freedoms and keeping America safe.
This International Workers Day we honor the labor movement’s achievements and celebrate the progress they made for workers rights. I am proud to recognize their brave work protesting unfair working conditions, advocating for worker safety, and fighting for higher wages.
Secretary Hegseth and I don’t agree on a lot, but we’re in agreement here—we need to fix the overly complicated system of duty statuses. It’s what’s best for our servicemembers.
Republicans’ DHS shutdown is finally over. After nearly 80 days, House Republicans finally joined Democrats to reopen DHS, pay TSA agents, and keep people safe—without increasing ICE’s slush fund.
We should be passing policies that bring food prices down, not continue deep cuts to food assistance programs for more than 40 million Americans. This is a bad bill that leaves hardworking Americans behind.
The Republican Farm Bill does nothing to bring rising grocery costs down for American farmers and working families. Instead, it protects the $187 billion in SNAP cuts made by Republicans in the One Big Ugly Bill.
Instead of putting party aside to do what was right, Republicans chose the spineless route of blindly doing the President’s will. This was never about you or the American people. It was always about what is best for their political agendas.
Late last night, Republicans voted to prioritize even more money to ICE with no reforms or guardrails. This is on top of their $75 billion slush fund. House Democrats have been pushing for a bipartisan solution that gets TSA agents paid, reopens the government, and keeps people safe.
For 60 years the Voting Rights Act has been the law of the land, giving just representation to our communities of color. The Supreme Court’s ruling against Louisiana’s congressional map is an alarming victory for the Republican party’s fight to repeal these fundamental civil rights protections.
Service dogs provide lifesaving assistance to thousands of our veterans as they reintegrate into life after military service. I introduced an amendment to the Farm Bill that would ensure critical protections for service dogs but House Republicans struck it down with no explanation.
Today, the Supreme Court is hearing arguments on the future of Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for 1.3 million people in the U.S. Many TPS holders have lived here for decades, building lives, starting families, contributing to our communities, and strengthening our workforce.
I questioned Secretary Hegseth @deptofwar.bsky.social at today’s House Armed Services Committee hearing on his position regarding the consolidation of the military’s overly complicated duty status system.
