We are 24 days away from 5,400 people in our district losing their health coverage. Republicans refuse to work with us to extend critical ACA tax credits to lower monthly payments. @housedemocrats.bsky.social and I are fighting to protect affordable healthcare.

Pearl Harbor changed our country forever. Today, I remember the 2,403 Americans who were killed 84 years ago and the veterans who chose to join the fight. Their courage reminds us what service to our country truly means.

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.govDec 6(source)

Systemic racism is real. Black women are still not heard in our hospitals. Mercedes Wells was sent home while she was in labor. That is unacceptable. I am introducing the WELLS Act to make sure Black moms get real care that protects their lives.

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.govDec 6(source)

The 13th Amendment became law 160 years ago today and ended slavery in the United States. That moment began a long journey toward equality that is still unfinished. I believe we must learn from our past and stay committed to justice.

We are 14 days away from the deadline for President Trump and his Justice Department to release the Epstein files. The victims deserve justice, and the American public deserves answers. www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

Lawmakers ask AG Pam Bondi for a status update on releasing the Epstein files

Five members of Congress spanning both parties and both chambers want a briefing by Friday on the Trump administration's progress in releasing the Epstein files.

President Trump’s schedule: 9 AM Ballroom Design Meeting 10 AM Cut Medicaid 11 AM Brainstorm a concept of a healthcare plan. TELL NO ONE. 12 PM Nap during cabinet meeting 1 PM Reminisce good times with pal Jeffrey Epstein He simply doesn’t have time to make life more affordable.

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.

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.govDec 5(source)

Costs for food, rent, and healthcare keep climbing. Working people are fighting to make ends meet. Calling your struggles a “con job” proves that Trump is an out-of-touch billionaire.

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.

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.govDec 4(source)

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.

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.govDec 4(source)

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.

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.govDec 3(source)

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.

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.govDec 3(source)

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.

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.govDec 2(source)

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.

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.

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.govDec 1(source)

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.
