There may be a fool in the White House, but what’s happening in this country is no joke. While families struggle to get by, Donald Trump is still putting billionaires and himself over the people. We need leadership focused on lowering costs and delivering for working families.

Today, the Supreme Court hears arguments on birthright citizenship. The 14th Amendment is settled law: if you’re born here, you’re a citizen.  The President can’t executive order his way around the Constitution. I will continue the fight to  protect our families and our future.
Defend th 14th amendment at the Supreme Court.

In his latest desperate attempt to suppress voters, President Trump now wants to create a national list of voters. He’ll use any tactic to cling to power and undermine our democracy. We won't let it happen. See you in court, Donald.

Minneapolis was a wake-up call. I am standing with @krisbrown.bradyunited.org to ask the tough questions. Alex Pretti was a legal gun owner, yet DHS agents killed him while the gun lobby stayed SILENT. More guns don’t mean more safety; ICE and CBP need to get the hell out of our cities.

What happened in Minneapolis didn’t occur overnight. It was the result of decades of insidious messaging by America’s deadliest industry. The answer to this moment cannot be more guns. It must be accountability. Read my latest with @robinlynnekelly.bsky.social ⬇️

Today, I honor the farmworkers, their movement, and their power. My district covers over 4,500 farms, and I know their work is essential to feed our country. I will keep fighting for fair pay, safe conditions, and the dignity every worker deserves.

On Transgender Day of Visibility, we honor the strength, joy, and brilliance of trans people everywhere. I am committed to fighting for a world where trans and non-binary people can live openly, grow old with dignity, and be their authentic selves without fear.

Airports are in disarray, but a bipartisan solution is on the table. Instead of passing DHS funding, Republicans went on vacation. A last-minute executive order to fund the TSA is not a solution; it is a band-aid that should have happened on Day One of this shutdown.

Trump and Republicans already ripped healthcare coverage from millions to fund tax breaks for billionaires. Now they want more healthcare cuts to pay for a war in Iran that a majority of Americans oppose.  That is not America first. It is putting billionaires ahead of working families.

NEW: Republicans are considering reductions in federal health spending to help pay for a budget bill containing as much as $200 billion to fund the Iran war and immigration enforcement.

This Women's History Month, I honor Ida B. Wells. A fearless journalist, organizer, and civil rights pioneer whose fight against racial violence changed our nation. Her courage continues to inspire generations.
Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.govMar 29(source)
Three years ago today, President Biden signed into law the Emmett Till Antilynching Act. This law represents a long overdue acknowledgment of the racial violence that shaped our history and a commitment to confronting hate in all forms.

Trump claims prices are lower than ever, but we know he’s lying. While he is spending billions on a war against Iran, American families are suffering higher gas prices, higher utility bills, and higher grocery costs. It's time to end this now.

National Nutrition Month highlights the importance of good food for long‑term health. I’m working to support that goal through bipartisan legislation, the FOOD for Health Act, which helps bring healthy, affordable foods back into our communities.
Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.govMar 28(source)
House Republicans just passed a 60-day band-aid to prolong this DHS shutdown and give more money to the Gestapo agents who have terrorized our communities. That’s not right. Democrats have a solution on the table right now: pay TSA workers and rein in ICE & CBP.
Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.govMar 27(source)
Republicans are rubber-stamping Trump’s reckless war in Iran. No clear strategy. No accountability. No end in sight. Democrats are fighting for transparency, for Congress to do its job, and to bring this war to an end.
