Happy National Aerospace Week! Over 20,000 workers in North Carolina help power America's aerospace industry, and I'll continue to support these high-skill jobs that grow our economy and support local families. #AeroWeek2025
Trump's jobs reports are somehow getting worse: in June, America had its worst hiring level since 2021, and unemployment continues to rise. Speaker Johnson needs to bring bills to the floor that lower costs and ensure our economy can work for everyone. www.cnbc.com/2025/09/04/a...
The GOP is trying to pass a partisan funding package over working with @housedemocrats.bsky.social. If they can't find the votes for their budget, then it's their shutdown. We'll work with anyone who will come to the table to fund our government and critical services that uplift our communities.
The GOP continues to ignore the gun violence epidemic: they've legalized automatic machine guns, ended the White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention, and diverted funds away from law enforcement intended to help curb gun violence. (1/2)
The GOP's Energy Bill raises energy prices for low-income households, cancels billions in new infrastructure, and abandons nuclear threat reduction efforts. Who does this help? Trump's band of billionaires and big polluters. Who does this hurt? The rest of us.
As the school year begins, I want to say thank you to the over 600 new and returning #TeachForAmerica teachers entering classrooms in NC this year! I commend your continued work and effort to uplift the next generation of leaders in our nation.
While tariffs wreck the economy and prices soar, the GOP is focused on covering up the Epstein files and rigging electoral maps over delivering a proper, long-term government funding package. Americans deserve a government that actually delivers for the people—not the top 1%.
A few years on from the COVID pandemic, Secretary Kennedy has cancelled investments in medical research, fired the CDC Director, and championed anti-healthcare legislation to promote his anti-science and anti-vaccine agenda. He is a threat to the health of Americans everywhere.
I joined eight former CDC directors—spanning Republican and Democratic administrations—to share this warning: our nation’s health is at risk. The very systems that protect us from disease, cancer, and future health threats are being dismantled.
Happy Labor Day #NC04! Workers are the backbone of America, and I remain committed to honoring their contributions alongside @housedemocrats.bsky.social by protecting our unions and laborers across the country.
Today marks the 62nd anniversary of the March on Washington, when thousands took a stand against injustice in demanding an end to segregation and discrimination. As we continue the fight for freedom, let us draw strength from these leaders and keep marching toward true equality and justice for all.
70 years ago today, Emmett Till was murdered in Mississippi at just 14 years old. Today, we continue to see efforts to erase Black history and more than ever, we must honor Emmett’s legacy with action and ensure his story is never forgotten.
I'm devastated by the mass shooting at Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis. My heart is with the students, teachers, families, and entire community at this time. Our schools should be a safe place for our children. Congress must act now & protect our communities from senseless gun violence.
On Women’s Equality Day we celebrate the women who fought for the 19th Amendment and the right to vote for women across the country. Today, we continue their fight for equality for women in every area of life.
From Trump's tariffs to the Big, Ugly Bill, the GOP continues to ignore the rising cost of groceries, gas, and health care. Enough is enough. Republican leadership needs to let us vote on bills that put money back into the pockets of everyday Americans. www.cbsnews.com/news/wages-i...
