Today, Speaker Johnson said, "House Republicans are doing some of the most meaningful work of their careers. I don't want to pull them away from it." The most meaningful work of their careers ought to be protecting healthcare and nutritional benefits for American families.

When people have healthcare challenges, they're already going through all kinds of physical, emotional, and mental challenges. Taking away their coverage, as Republicans are trying to do, is simply cruel. They continually fail to propose a funding plan that helps American families.

Excited to cheer on Brighton native Ernie Clement in tonight’s World Series game! Proud to see our region represented on baseball’s biggest stage.

Blue Jays hero Ernie Clement has large Rochester cheering section back home

Long before he became a key part of the Toronto Blue Jays run to the World Series, Ernie Clement was a little leaguer in his hometown of Rochester.

Early voting has begun in our local election. The time is now to go out and vote! The most important title in a democracy is citizen, and this is your opportunity to make your voice heard.

The Trump administration is threatening to withhold roughly $6 billion in reserve funding for SNAP. This money is meant to feed vulnerable Americans. I'm calling on the administration to fulfill its responsibility to help families put food on the table.

Without the ACA premium tax credit, families like Isabel's will face unaffordable premium increases. Isabel, a hardworking mother of three, and Americans like her are who we're fighting for. This can’t wait—we need to lower costs now.

My friend @petermorley.bsky.social said it best, people can't wait for answers about their healthcare. The time is now, we have to protect access for the most vulnerable.

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

The Republican healthcare crisis is forcing families to question how they'll possibly be able to afford insurance next year. These are working Americans just trying to get by. We have a responsibility to support them.

Some Americans fear high health insurance premiums if ACA enhanced subsidies expire: 'Very much a worry'

Some Americans said they're worried that if subsidies expire, they may be forced to choose a lower-tier insurance plan or may not be able to cover their premiums.

The brave men and women of the Capitol Police deserve to be celebrated! I hosted a breakfast with my Democratic colleagues to thank them for their dedication. I'm incredibly grateful for the courage of these officers who stand ready to protect and defend the Capitol community.

Donald Trump's latest temper tantrum has a serious effect on communities like ours. Our region exports $668 million every year to Canada. These are real people's livelihoods he's toying with.

Trump tariff tiff: U.S. terminates all trade talks with Canada over Reagan TV ad

President Trump claimed Canada ran an ad featuring former President Ronald Reagan talking about tariffs to influence a pending U.S. Supreme Court case.

Betraying your country to enrich yourself sounds like the work of tyrants like Putin, Marcos, or Maduro—the ranks of which Donald Trump is seemingly desperate to join. It's disgraceful. https://www.nbcnews.com/tech/crypto/binance-pardon-trump-changpeng-zhao-crypto-rcna239371

This past weekend, one of the violent criminals who was pardoned by Donald Trump after storming the Capitol on January 6th was arrested for threatening Leader Jeffries. Political violence has no place here—our democracy depends on the rule of law.

Losing health insurance means after needing to take a sick or injured child to the emergency room, you could walk out with a bill that will completely ruin you financially. That's the reality the ACA was designed to prevent, and the reality we will return to if we don't act now.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govOct 23(source)

Today, we remember the women who fought to secure their right to vote at the first National Women's Rights Convention in Worcester, MA in 1850. As Ranking Member of the Committee on House Administration, I'm proud to carry on the fight to ensure every eligible American has access to the ballot box.
