It's simple, we're fighting to make sure American families can access the healthcare services they need for themselves and for their children.

House Democrats are here, ready to work together to avoid a disastrous government shutdown and protect healthcare for millions of Americans.

The American Dream shouldn’t come with an endless waitlist. Teachers, nurses, firefighters, public defenders—all promised relief for serving their community. Instead, they’re trapped in a backlog because of the incompetence of the Trump administration.

Student loan borrower backlog for forgiveness swells to 74,510 under Trump

The backlog of student loan borrowers trying to access Public Service Loan Forgiveness continues to grow under the Trump administration. Here's what to know.

The American people deserve a government that puts their interests first. Instead, President Trump is using hardworking families as pawns in a political contest. We need a bipartisan budget that protects healthcare and supports families.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govSep 29(source)

In spite of the chaos and misinformation coming from the Trump administration, I'm glad local organizations like Trillium are continuing to ensure our community gets the healthcare we need.

Amid vaccine confusion, Trillium Health will provide COVID shots to the public

The pharmacists at Trillium Health Center say they’re able to provide the Moderna and Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine to anyone 12 and older.

If we want American families to grow, we need to secure the tools and resources to support them through every stage of life.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govSep 28(source)

I joined @meidastouch.com this week to talk about the state of our government. We’ve got to tone down the rhetoric and that needs to start from the top. It starts with the president.

Cancel the Cuts. Lower the Cost. Save Healthcare.

I’m heartbroken by the tragic shooting in Michigan. My prayers are with the victims, their families, and the entire faith community. Grateful to the first responders who responded quickly in the midst of this senseless violence.

Always excited to be with my friends at the Greater Rochester Chamber of Commerce. They're working to bring our business community together and ensure leaders across Rochester are equipped with the resources they need to thrive.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govSep 27(source)

The deadline to fund the government is only 3 days away. It's well past time my colleagues across the aisle came together in a truly bipartisan way to find common ground and prevent a disastrous shutdown.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govSep 27(source)

Great to be with RochesterWorks during their retreat to give an update on my work in Washington. Their mission to grow our workforce and connect underserved communities with jobs is essential to making a stronger Rochester.

Combatting the chaos of the Trump administration requires an all-hands-on-deck approach, and I'm proud to work with groups like the Sigma Pi Phi Gamma Iota Boulé in this effort. Thank you for hosting me last weekend, and I look forward to our continued partnership.

Last night's town hall with Civic Genius was an inspiring night of deliberative, meaningful conversations with our community. It's moments like this when democracy is at its best, and I'm taking the thoughts and concerns shared back to DC to shape my work in Congress.

During #HispanicHeritageMonth, we celebrate the vibrant culture, rich history, and lasting influence of Rochester's Hispanic-American community. It was a privilege to host a ceremony this week to honor some special individuals who have had a profound impact on our region.

Lindsey Graham hopes the Trump presidency "never ends," even if it means violating the Constitution. Lawmakers have taken an oath to follow the Constitution, not a single person.

Graham says he would support third Trump term in 2028

South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) says he would like to see President Trump run for a third term in 2028, even though the 22nd Amendment limits a president to serving two terms. “Trump 20…

What kind of a leader threatens to hurt their own people to get their way? That's not negotiation, it's cruelty.

White House threatens layoffs — not furloughs — if the government shuts down

In past government shutdowns, workers have been put on temporary furloughs until funding resumes. This time, the Trump White House is looking for bigger and more permanent cuts, a new memo shows.
