Disparity in pay continues to impact women & families across the country. I was proud to bring the Paycheck Fairness Act to the House Floor as Majority Leader, and on #EqualPayDay & every day Democrats will keep fighting to pass this legislation & to close the gender wage gap.

Did you know that the law regulating how the federal government collects and uses our personal data is 51 years old?   On today's Digital Download, I talked about how @housedemocrats.bsky.social are fighting back against Elon Musk accessing Americans' most sensitive personal data.

I am honored to be a part of the @amexperiencepbs.bsky.social film, capturing the courage and perseverance of the fight to secure protections for people with disabilities and ensure every aspect of American life is accessible to all. Tune in on Tuesday, March 25th, 2025.

Trump's continued attacks on federal agencies and federal employees jeopardizes the effective and efficient delivery of services for the American people.

Trump dishonors our nation's heroes by seeking to rewrite history by Executive Order. Our nation is stronger because of the contributions of our Black, Native American, and Japanese service members.
