Today is Equal Pay Day. The wage gap we're highlighting today isn't just lost income. It's also missed opportunities and economic inequality for women and families across our country. Equal work deserves equal pay. It’s time to close the gap.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govMar 25(source)

Donald Trump is making life harder for families. The American people know it. He knows it. And that's why he's trying to silence voters.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govMar 25(source)

Republicans are in on the scheme. They know the SAVE America Act will make it harder for women to vote. They just don't care.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govMar 25(source)

Mr. Speaker, it's clear you only cry fraud when states don't vote in your favor...I think the American people can see what's going on. #TrumpVotesbyMail

What’s happening in Georgia shows what extreme bans really do. Fear of criminalization only makes people afraid to get the care they need. Your health decisions should be between you and your doctor. We must protect the right to make those decisions.

Reliable weather forecasts save lives. As extreme weather becomes more frequent, we must ensure NOAA and the National Weather Service have the resources they need to keep communities safe. Tune in as we discuss what’s at stake:

Angie Pérez-Delgado joined me at the State of the Union to represent the communities who are too often left out. Her reflection is powerful, personal, and necessary. Read her words:

Hypocrisy, that's what you get with Donald Trump. Mail-in voting is secure and I'll continue to fight to protect it for American voters.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govMar 24(source)

In three weeks, Trump has spent nearly $25 billion on his war in Iran. That's a lot of money that could have been used here at home to support American families.

Instead of accepting the bipartisan agreement that would restore funding for TSA, President Trump wants to tie this issue to his desire to make it harder for Americans to vote. It's clear voter supression is his number one priority, not advancing the interests of the American people.

Voting by mail is safe and secure; we know this, and evidently, so does President Trump!

Trump just voted by a method he calls ‘mail-in cheating’

The president’s decision to vote by mail comes as he pushes a sweeping bill to reform balloting nationwide, including restrictions on mail-in voting.
