Wishing all who observe a meaningful and peaceful Good Friday. Let us reflect on our blessings as we look with hope towards the future.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govApr 2(source)

Donald Trump's latest Executive Order, to limit who states can send mail-in ballots to, will do more to silence voters' voices than anything else he has tried to do. It is a violation of the Constitution, it is illegal, it is reckless, and we absolutely will not let it stand.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govApr 2(source)

Criminalizing homelessness was never the answer. This is a step in the right direction but the work isn’t done. We need real solutions: affordable housing, mental health care, and support that restores stability, not policies that punish people in crisis.

Trump Administration Acted Illegally With Homeless Grants Program, Judge Rules

And while Donald Trump claims to stand with American families, his actions tell the truth: he’s willing to spend your money and risk your future to wage war and sow chaos. The American people deserve better.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govApr 2(source)

We want an America focused on stability, opportunity, and dignity for families, not one that gambles with the lives of our sons and daughters while prioritizing conflict overseas.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govApr 2(source)

Instead, he’s spent at least $30 billion of taxpayer money on war abroad while families here struggle to afford food and lifesaving medications. That’s not the America our community wants.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govApr 2(source)

If Donald Trump actually believed in putting America first, he’d be investing in things here at home like: universal childcare, affordable housing, expanded Affordable Care Act tax credits, and modern roads and bridges.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govApr 2(source)

Medicare, Medicaid, and childcare are not ‘little scams,’ they’re the foundation of stability for millions of American families. The real scam is Donald Trump pushing an unnecessary war in Iran.

Thank God Pam Bondi is gone. Who could possibly be more spineless than her? The search is on…

Today is World Autism Awareness Day, an opportunity to celebrate the remarkable contributions of individuals with autism and reaffirm our commitment to expanding access to care, education, and opportunity. Everyone deserves the support and resources they need to thrive.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govApr 2(source)

I joined residents at ESLC’s Beatrice Place to hear directly about the issues that matter most to them. From protecting Social Security and Medicare to lowering the cost of prescription drugs, we must ensure every American is supported after a lifetime of work.

Wishing joy and blessings to everyone celebrating Passover in Rochester and across the country. Chag Sameach!

Today’s launch of Artemis II is a major step toward returning Americans to the Moon and beyond. A few years ago, I met with astronauts leading this mission. Their dedication and innovation were clear then, and it’s incredible to see it come to life today.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govApr 1(source)

Spent time today at the Greece Community and Senior Center talking with local seniors about the issues that matter most to them. Our seniors built our communities, and I’ll always fight to ensure they can retire with dignity and security.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govApr 1(source)

We will keep fighting to protect this and every constitutional right that generations of Americans have fought and died to secure, including the fundamental right to vote.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govApr 1(source)

Birthright citizenship goes to the very heart of what makes America exceptional and a beacon of freedom and opportunity. This unconstitutional executive order is part of the Donald Trump’s dangerous attempt to redefine who gets to call themselves an American.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govMar 31(source)

Donald Trump fears the American people and is willing to violate the Constitution to stop them from voting. His Executive Order is illegal, dangerous and subversive. It will not stand.

Trump signs order limiting mail-in voting

The order directs the Postal Service to only send mail-in ballots to an approved list of voters.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govMar 31(source)

The SAVE America Act would make it harder for Americans to register to vote. In rural communities, the nearest board of elections could be hours away. Traveling there to register is a significant barrier.

I'm grateful for their work and proud to lift up their voices. Read more:
