Today marks 61 years of Head Start!
Last year, I proudly highlighted the impact Head Start has in PA alongside @repdean.bsky.social, parents and child care advocates.
In Congress, I'm fighting to protect and expand Head Start - so every kid has a chance to succeed!

While congressional Republicans continue ignoring the president's corrupt abuse of power, I joined over 90 of my Democratic colleagues in fighting to protect YOUR hard-earned taxpayer dollars!
Trump JUST reached a settlement with his own DOJ to create a $1,776,000,000 slush fund for January 6 insurrectionists and his political allies.
That's enough to send a $1,128 check to every Philadelphian to offset the high prices his war of choice and tariff-taxes have caused!
President Trump drops $10 billion lawsuit against IRS amid talks of establishing a fund to compensate allies targeted in DOJ investigations https://cnn.it/4nzNwOZ
My office has received several troubling reports of this happening in Philadelphia. NIH and HHS should release this already-approved funding ASAP!
Donald Trump promised he would lower prices on day one and start no new wars.
Over a year into his second term, working Americans are paying the prices of his broken promises.
President Trump promised to bring inflation down. But his policies keep pushing prices up.
The war on Iran increased gas prices by over 50 percent. Higher energy costs drove up the price of airfares and goods that move by truck, including groceries. https://wapo.st/4tzgtMi
Trump could use $1,700,000,000 to help Americans struggling to afford the higher gas and grocery prices his policies caused.
But this grifter president would rather funnel taxpayer dollars to January 6th insurrectionists and his political allies. His corruption has no limits.
🚨 Make sure your ballot is counted in Tuesday’s election! 🚨
@phillyvotes.bsky.social has identified nearly 600 ballots with various issues that can prevent them from being counted.

Once again, I voted to end Trump’s illegal war of choice.
And once again, most congressional Republicans refused to rein in this president’s warmongering.
This is the reality of Trump’s economy.
Thanks to his tariff-taxes and war of choice, YOU’RE paying more from the gas pump to the grocery store.
And his response? “I don’t think about Americans’ financial situation.”
After gutting SNAP food assistance, President Trump and congressional Republicans NOW want to slash funding to WIC — taking nutritious food away from mothers, infants, and children.
These cuts are unnecessary and cruel, and I’ll continue to fight them in Congress!
Philly moms and babies would face steep cuts to the federal WIC nutrition program if GOP bill passes. The Trump administration wants to decrease a mother's allotments for fruits and vegetables from $52 to $13 a month.

I’m proud to reintroduce the VICTIM Act with Rep. Bacon, Senator Kennedy, and Senator Booker!
This bipartisan, bicameral bill would help state and local police solve more shooting cases and provide victims and family members with aid and resources they need.
Spotted in #Philly!
As Trump continues his 74-day war of choice with no real end in sight, Philadelphia drivers are paying the price!
Some free suggestions for congressional Republicans!
1. Ditch the billion-dollar ballroom
2. Work with Democrats to end Trump’s costly war and tariff-taxes
Reposted byCongressman Dwight Evans
The largest ever settlement or jury award for government violations of constitutional rights to a single person is $100 million, or 1 percent of what Trump demanding for the leak of his tax returns.
That case -- a killing by police -- was reduced to $1 million on appeal.
It seems clear Trump dragged our country into this optional war with no strategy or end game.
Republicans in Congress need to work with Democrats to end it!
Thank you to everyone who attended to my Senior Resource and Wellness Fair!

Donald Trump just said the quiet part out loud!
He doesn’t care about how his war of choice or tariff-taxes hurt your wallet – “not even a little bit.”
Democrats in Congress will keep fighting to stop both of those because we DO care.
