It was great meeting with the Nat'l Association of Realtors to discuss our housing supply shortage & proposals that will stabilize rising costs & address barriers to homeownership. I’m committed to finding bipartisan solutions to ensure every American has a safe, affordable place to call home.
I met with @aamctoday.bsky.social to discuss the essential role our medical institutions play in improving the health of patients & communities across North Carolina. We must ensure NIH & our medical colleges have the funding they need to continue delivering lifesaving research & care nationwide.
Trump’s travel ban targets communities of color, violates our core principles, & weakens our global leadership. Make no mistake: This shameful order is rooted in bigotry & has nothing to do with safety or security—it's about stoking fear & division. We've seen this before & we will fight it again.
Millions of innocent civilians in Gaza face starvation and are in dire need of assistance. Today, alongside Reps. Jayapal, Raskin, Keating, and Balint, I co-led a resolution urging the Trump Administration to use every diplomatic tool to ensure the immediate delivery of humanitarian aid.
📅 NEXT WEEK: My office will be holding Mobile Office Hours at the Chatham County Historic Courthouse on June 11th from 11AM to 1PM. Come by to speak with a member of my constituent services team if you are experiencing any issues with a federal agency—we are here to help!
Extreme heat kills more Americans yearly than any other weather event. Terminating $4.55M in funding, including over $2M at Durham’s Museum of Life & Science, aimed at addressing this danger will have detrimental effects. I co-led a letter with Rep. Lieu urging @NOAA to reverse this cancellation.
Happy #PrideMonth! Pride is a time to remember that no matter who you are, or who you love, you are perfect just the way you are. As an ally and member of @equality.house.gov, I will keep fighting for the LGBTQ+ community to ensure everyone is able to live safely & freely as their authentic selves.
My heart is with the loved ones of all those affected by the terrorist attack in Boulder, CO yesterday on the eve of Shavuot. I stand with our Jewish community during this time, and we must continue to commit ourselves to stomping out antisemitism and hate in all forms across our society.
I met with the Air Line Pilots Association to discuss how we can take steps to solve the air traffic controller shortage. Air traffic controllers are vital & as a member of @transportdems.bsky.social, I'm focused on developing an enduring workforce pipeline to ensure the safe flow of air traffic.
Great to visit Quadridox in Hillsborough to learn how they’re advancing X-ray imaging to boost airport security & efficiency and reduce hospital costs & patient wait times. Originally funded as spinout from Duke, Quadridox shows the transformative impact universities can have across communities.
Navigating federal agencies for passport renewals, work authorizations, VA benefits, and more can be difficult—but my casework team is here to help! If you need assistance with federal agencies, don’t hesitate to reach out to my Durham District Office at 919-967-7924.
On Memorial Day, we honor the heroic servicemembers who lost their lives protecting our country. Everyday we work to honor them, their families, and their loved ones by upholding the democratic values that they worked tirelessly to defend and preserve.
