Reminder: Trump asked Congress for $200 billion for his war with Iran, spent $400 million on a new ballroom, and approved $75 billion for ICE. We have heard these lies our entire lives. The government can fund childcare and healthcare, Trump just chooses not to.
Trump: "Don't send any money for daycare because the U.S. can't take care of daycare…It's not possible for us to take care of daycare, Medicaid, Medicare, all these individual things. They can do it on a state basis. You can't do it on a federal."
The Heritage Foundation itself has only found 41 cases involving non-citizens registering, voting, or attempting to vote in over 5 decades TOTAL. This is a non-issue that is being weaponized against the American people.
This is ridiculous and must be rejected by our courts. Trump is trying to rig elections by attacking mail-in voting and putting in question the votes of people who have recently changed their names or have had identification papers recently expire. apnews.com/article/dona...
It was great meeting with local leaders from Holly Springs, including Mayor Mike Kondratick, Town Councilmembers, and the Town Manager. It has been a pleasure to work alongside you all to support the people of Holly Springs, and I’ll continue the fight to bring federal funding to the area.
📢 FYI: If you are participating in the Congressional Art Competition, don't forget to drop off your submissions at my Durham District office! Drop off hours are from 9AM to 7PM this Monday and Tuesday at 2605 Meridian Pkwy, Suite 110, Durham, NC.
The Republican response to TSA workers missing paychecks, and ICE putting citizens at risk, is giving ICE more money without a long-term funding plan for TSA. That's why I voted against the GOP's Continuing Resolution. Read my full statement.
I refuse to vote in favor of giving ICE more money and will be voting against the Republican’s Continuing Resolution. This Resolution is a band-aid that puts ICE funding above a long-term solution for TSA workers. The Senate passed a package that omits ICE funding. We should be voting on that.
But let’s be very clear, this confirms what @housedemocrats.bsky.social have been saying throughout this partial shutdown. Republicans could have come to the table earlier to fund TSA, without ICE, but refused to. The political games need to end. Let's get it done.
This is great news. The House must bring this bill to the floor for a vote immediately. The safety of communities has been put at risk while TSA workers are being used as pawns in the GOP's scheme to increase ICE funding. www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...
The Bull City Battalion has operated in Durham for decades without a hitch. This Administration's decision to reduce certain Army budgets should not mean that @nccueagle.bsky.social students lose access to ROTC resources. Read more at Spectacular Magazine. spectacularmag.com/2026/03/fous...
The reclassification of the Bull City Battalion will have a major impact on its accessibility for NCCU students. It is critical that the Army takes steps to assess potential impacts on cadets, and the 4th District, before moving forward with implementation.
The Army’s follow-up to my November letter regarding the reclassification of the Bull City ROTC Battalion fails to address potential costs or any steps taken to safeguard program quality and assess the training impacts of these proposed changes.
Attorney General Bondi has made a mockery of the rule of law. I’m proud to support @repsummerlee.bsky.social’s articles of impeachment against her. Bondi’s priority is protecting members of the Epstein class, including the convicted felon in the White House. She needs to be removed immediately.
This week, I joined my @dstinc1913.bsky.social sorors for the 37th Delta Days here at the Capitol! Delta Women are leading the fight for social justice, and we will continue to advance Delta Sigma Theta’s legacy of sisterhood, scholarship, and service.
