Thank you to everyone who tuned into my telephone town hall! We had over 19,000 people join to hear the latest updates on what is being done in Congress to combat the extreme actions taken by the Trump Administration. During these uncertain times, I will always fight for you and our community.
NIH budget cuts will hurt North Carolina universities and local research institutions, and stifle cutting-edge cancer research initiatives. It's unacceptable that this administration is prioritizing lining billionaires' pockets over life-saving disease prevention research. time.com/7216299/nih-...
Today, we celebrate 116 years of the #NAACP, which has been at the front lines in the fight for equality and racial justice for all Americans. The NAACP's mission is more important now than ever, and we must continue to work to build a more inclusive and equitable society for all.
Join me TONIGHT at 6:30PM for my telephone town hall! Tune in to hear me, @repjasmine.bsky.social, @frost.house.gov and @neguse.house.gov discuss important issues that matter most to the residents of the Fourth District. Dial in to join the conversation at 833-408-1993.
Donald Trump turned over the keys to the White House to Elon Musk, the Un-Elected President of the United States. You can't claim to be working against corporate elites while simultaneously giving the richest man in the world unchecked access and control over our federal government.
Join me this Wednesday at 6:30PM for my telephone town hall! Tune in to hear me discuss important issues that matter most to the residents of the Fourth District. Dial in to join the conversation at 833-408-1993.
Elon Musk's infiltration of Treasury payment systems means access to Social Security numbers, tax refunds and sensitive data. I am proud to join @housedemocrats.bsky.social in introducing the Taxpayer Data Protection Act to prevent unelected billionaires from gaining access to the treasury.
The unconstitutional shuttering of USAID will have devastating effects on our ability to provide humanitarian aid and support public health around the world. I joined @housedemocrats.bsky.social in relaying concerns to Secretary of State Rubio about the legality & long-term effects of ending USAID.
@usedgov.bsky.social Acting Secretary Carter continues to ignore our request for a meeting. So today, we showed up at her doorstep. The American people deserve answers about Trump's plan to dismantle this agency which supports children with disabilities and K-12 schools nationwide.
The CEO of SpaceX, Elon Musk, having access to confidential NASA information is a security breach and conflict of interest. As Ranking Member of the Space Subcommittee, I joined Science Committee Ranking Member Lofgren in asking NASA to clearly outline any current and future interactions with DOGE.
I look forward to working alongside my colleagues to strengthen our nation's position as a leader in scientific innovation and ensure safe and reliable infrastructure and transportation access for families across the country. My full statement: foushee.house.gov/media/press-...
I am honored to announce that I will serve on the Energy Subcommittee and as Ranking Member of the Space & Aeronautics Subcommittee in the Committee on Science, Space, and Technology in the 119th Congress. I will also be serving on the Rail and Aviation subcommittees with @transportdems.bsky.social.
GOP attempts to dismantle @usedgov.bsky.social would disrupt support for K-12 schools, students with disabilities, & students from low-income households. I'm proud to support the Department of Education Protection Act to safeguard this agency and ensure students receive the education they deserve.
Elon Musk, the richest man on earth, is stealing your personal financial information through an illegal takeover of the U.S. Treasury.   I'm here at the Treasury Building in D.C. with my @housedemocrats.bsky.social colleagues to demand an end to this unprecedented power grab & privacy breach.
Today, on Rosa Parks' birthday, we honor her historic protest by celebrating #TransitEquityDay. I’m proud to reintroduce my resolution recognizing Transit Equity Day and the importance of ensuring access to safe, reliable, and affordable public transportation. foushee.house.gov/media/press-...
