Release the Epstein files, Trump.

Black women’s pain is often ignored in the doctor’s room. I refuse to let their pain go unheard in Congress. At a roundtable with Lupita Nyong’o, who has uterine fibroids, we discussed how we can increase access to treatment and provide resources to women with uterine fibroids.

Americans are paying the price for Trump’s shortsighted trade war. Inflation continues to rise. Prices continue to rise. This is Trump’s economy.

Inflation picks up again in June, rising at 2.7% annual rate

The consumer price index in June was expected to increase 2.7% from a year ago, according to the Dow Jones consensus estimate.

President Trump never takes responsibility for his own actions — he only blames others. The families of victims from the Texas flood deserve answers, not excuses. Our communities deserve a well-equipped FEMA response, not a gutted federal agency. Our country deserves a real leader.

Republicans knew that slashing Medicaid was wrong. But they decided to exacerbate our maternal mortality crisis anyways. As I told POLITICO, I will continue the fight toward reproductive justice so every mother and baby have the resources they need to thrive. www.politico.com/newsletters/...

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.govJul 12(source)

The Trump admin is obsessed with people having babies — but Trump isn’t lowering childcare costs or maternal death rates. His cuts to Medicaid made it worse. Americans don’t want more babies. They want the choice, safety, and affordability to have babies.

US adults want the government to focus on child care costs, not birth rates, AP-NORC poll finds

A new AP-NORC poll finds most Americans do not want the government to focus on increasing birth rates, despite efforts by the Trump administration to make this a priority.

LIVE NOW: I'm on @lastword.msnbc.com to share what I heard at a townhall in New Orleans. It's the same concerns I'm hearing in Illinois. People are scared about their healthcare and what Republican cuts to Medicaid mean for them.

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.govJul 11(source)

Last night in Speaker Johnson’s home state of Louisiana, people told @housedemocrats.bsky.social & I that they’re terrified of what the Big, Ugly Law means for their healthcare. Medicaid is a lifeline for families — and Republicans cut it. apnews.com/article/demo...

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.govJul 11(source)

Republicans cut Medicaid as we face a maternal mortality crisis. Their actions will have deadly consequences. Regina Moss with @blackwomensrj.bsky.social and I talked with @politico.com about Black maternal health and how we can continue to advance reproductive justice:

Last night I hosted a Town Hall with @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, @robinkelly.house.gov, @wassermanschultz.house.gov, & @repbarragan.bsky.social. Today we’re holding a press conference to continue discussing how we’re fighting back. Watch: www.youtube.com/live/now4Y9j...

Last week, President Trump signed into law a historic $1 trillion cut to Medicaid, stealing healthcare from 17 million Americans. Republicans betrayed their own constituents, and the people deserve answers. Watch our townhall LIVE tonight at 6 p.m. CT: www.youtube.com/live/D5VLWdn...

I’m leading a townhall in New Orleans on Trump’s Big, Ugly Betrayal with @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, @reptroycarter.bsky.social, @wassermanschultz.house.gov & @repbarragan.bsky.social. We’ll be in the home state of Speaker Johnson to tell Louisianans exactly who stole their healthcare.

Black women know our own worth. It’s time we get paid what we deserve. But a Black woman only earns 66 cents for every dollar a white man earns. On this Black Women Equal Pay Day, I continue to speak out to correct the pay gap between Black women and white men.

We eliminated measles 25 years ago. Now, measles cases are at an all-time high with 1,277 reported cases this year. It’s no coincidence that vaccination rates declined as measles resurged — with an anti-vaxxer as our country’s Health Secretary.

Measles cases reach highest point since the disease was eliminated in U.S. in 2000

An outbreak in West Texas that spread to several other states drove the case counts up substantially.

Over the 4th of July weekend, 8 people were fatally shot and 39 more were injured in Chicago. This isn’t freedom. I will continue to fight to end gun violence until everyone is safe at a parade, fireworks show, park, on the street — everywhere.

Chicago shootings: At least 55 people shot, 8 fatally, in 4th of July weekend gun violence, CPD says

At least 55 people have been shot, eight fatally, in gun violence across the city so far this Fourth of July weekend, Chicago police said.

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

Three years ago today, tragedy struck at a 4th of July parade in Highland Park. 7 people were shot and killed, and 48 more were injured. I will fight until we are free from gun violence at a parade, on the sidewalk, in our homes, at the groceries, and in our communities.

House Republicans passed the Big, Ugly Bill which will cut $1 trillion to Medicaid, stealing healthcare from 17 million Americans. Read my full statement: robinkelly.house.gov/media-center...

Rep. Kelly condemns Big, Ugly Bill: ‘Shame on House Republicans’

WASHINGTON – U.S. Rep. Robin Kelly (IL-02) condemned U.S. House Republicans for jamming through the Big, Ugly Bill to meet an arbitrary deadline.

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

President Trump promised not to touch Medicaid – but he lied, and House Republicans were complicit in his scam. Shame on House Republicans, and shame on President Trump for betraying the American people.

Take your sweet time! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Proud to support our Leader, @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social. He’s speaking out to protect people’s healthcare and food assistance.

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

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social has been speaking on the House floor for almost 8 hours. We are standing up for the American people, telling their stories, and raising the alarm for why this bill is so ugly. Watch LIVE: www.youtube.com/live/3pbFrch...
