Today marks seventy years since the Montgomery Bus Boycott began in Alabama. Black Americans took a stand for their rights, dignity, and freedoms — and changed history. Their bravery inspires me, and I am committed to continuing their push for equality.

I stand with @ramirez.house.gov in calling to subpoena Greg Bovino for his lies and disrespect for the rule of law. Bovino and Sec. Noem’s actions & incompetent leadership endanger the public. I am working to get answers and holding them accountable.

DHS is the single greatest threat to public safety right now. Today, I moved to subpoena Greg Bovino for his lawless campaign of terror, lies, and disregard for Congress and the courts. We demand accountability.

Tenants of the apartment building at 7500 S. South Shore were terrorized by ICE in October. Now, they’ve received eviction notices with two weeks to get out. No heat. No power. No elevator. This is unacceptable.

Mercedes’s courage to share her experience inspired me to write the WELLS Act. Too many Black women in labor are ignored. The WELLS Act brings real oversight and accountability, so Black moms get the safe care they deserve.

The ACA tax credits expire in 28 days. Tens of millions of Americans rely on these life-saving tax credits to pay for their medical care, and there is still time to extend them. @houserepublicans.bsky.social: Meet with @HouseDemocrats.bsky.social to save affordable health care.

As we enter the holiday season, many of us are spending more time at home or in others' homes, meaning kids are exploring every corner of the house. That is why gun owners must prioritize #SafeStorage to protect children from unintentional shootings.

Big Tech is exploiting people’s private data, putting kids’ health at risk. I want clear rules so AI cannot act like a doctor or provide false medical advice and comprehensive privacy protections. As tech evolves, companies need to be held accountable to keep kids safe.

Last night about the ACA, GOP Leader Scalise told @punchbowlnews.bsky.social , "We're building consensus, and that's what's going to dictate when we bring it to the floor." I have an idea, Rep. Scalise: Work with @HouseDemocrats.bsky.social. We have a plan to save affordable healthcare.

Last week, Medicare drug prices showed the Inflation Reduction Act is working. Seniors will save real money. Now let's work to expand these protections so every American can afford the medicine they need. democrats-energycommerce.house.gov/media/press-...

After Mercedes Wells shared her experience, more Black women are telling me about their birthing stories. This was not an isolated incident but proof of systematic racism. My WELLS Act creates strong discharge rules and better racial bias training so moms get the care they deserve.
Mercedes Wells hospitalized with post-birth complications weeks after giving birth in husband's truck
Mercedes Wells is back in the hospital, less than a week after being forced to give birth to her baby girl in her husband's truck.

Secretary Hegseth is incompetent. He reportedly ordered the murder of survivors, which is appalling and violates international law. Congress absolutely needs to exact our oversight powers and investigate Secretary Hegseth’s orders.

On World AIDS Day, I honor the lives lost and renew my commitment to ending HIV/AIDS once and for all.   As Chair of The Black Caucus Health Braintrust, I will continue to protect PEPFAR, the lifesaving HIV/AIDS global program, as we work to end this pandemic. for all.

This week I announced the WELLS ACT, named in honor of Mercedes Wells, a constituent who was discharged from an Indiana hospital while in active labor. Minutes later, she gave birth on the side of the road. Her husband, Leon, delivered their fourth child. 🧵

Birth control isn’t a luxury. It’s essential healthcare. That’s why I introduced the Access to Birth Control Act—to protect your choices for school, work, and family. #HandsOffMyBirthControl #ThnxBirthControl

In our district, 153,298 people rely on Social Security. Unlike President Trump and House Republicans, who have consistently threatened to cut Social Security benefits, @HouseDemocrats.bsky.social and I are tirelessly fighting to safeguard the benefits you have earned.
