Louise Slaughter was a dear friend, a trailblazer, and a champion for families in our community and across the nation. Today marks eight years since she passed. I am better for having known her and our country is better for her years of dedicated service.

The plaque honoring the men and women who defended the Capitol against a violent insurrection on January 6, 2021, has finally been hung. But not without years of shameful delay from Speaker Johnson and House Republicans.

I joined members of NYS Public Employees Federation this morning for their Legislative Breakfast. NY's public employees serve our communities every day. I’m grateful for the chance to hear directly from them about the challenges they’re facing and how we can continue supporting their vital work.

I joined Sheriff Baxter today for an update on their innovative programs to improve public safety across our community. I'm grateful to our local law enforcement officers who work tirelessly to keep us safe.

We gave a $5 trillion tax cut to the wealthiest Americans and didn’t ask them for a single thing in return. But we’re creating barriers for people who are struggling, most of whom are working, just to get a little help with groceries. It’s disgraceful.

The SAVE America Act is bad policy. Americans want their voices to be heard, it's their birthright.

I am horrified by the violence at Temple Israel in West Bloomfield, Michigan. No one should fear for their safety while gathering to worship. I'm praying for everyone affected, and I'm grateful for the swift response of law enforcement & first responders.

My thoughts are with her husband, Gerry, her son, Nick, and all who loved her. Cathy’s impact and legacy will not be forgotten.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govMar 12(source)

I’m mourning the loss of my dear friend and colleague, Assemblymember Catherine Nolan. Cathy dedicated decades of her life to public service. It was an honor and a privilege to work alongside her and to call her a dear friend.

Proud to have brought over $15 million back to our community through FY26 Community Project Funding. These projects will help support families across our region.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govMar 11(source)

I beg to differ, Mr. President. People in my community care a lot about having a [bleep] roof over their heads.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govMar 11(source)

Congress represents the people, when you inform Congress you inform the public. Donald Trump chose to inform neither the Congress nor the public before striking Iran and putting Americans at risk.

92,000 jobs lost in February and no U.S. job growth for the last three months. American workers deserve better. We need to be investing in good-paying jobs, rebuilding our manufacturing base, and strengthening the middle class.

I had the great honor of hosting a Pinning Ceremony to honor local veterans who served in the Vietnam War. Less than a month from National Vietnam War Veterans Day, there's no better time to to honor the courage of those who served.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govMar 11(source)

This week I stopped by Optimax, a global leader in precision optics manufacturing. Their team is powering innovation in aerospace, defense, and advanced technology while creating good-paying jobs right here in our community.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govMar 10(source)
