There is absolutely no place for political violence in this country. We should all be deeply concerned by the rise of violence, and we must condemn it in every case. I'm praying for Charlie Kirk and his family.

Live updates: Conservative activist Charlie Kirk shot at Utah college event

Charlie Kirk, the CEO and co-founder of the conservative youth organization Turning Point USA, was shot Wednesday at an event at a Utah college, Turning Point said.

@wassermanschultz.house.gov amendment would stop funds in this bill from closing down NOAA weather and climate labs and cooperative institutes. I voted in favor of this amendment, and I'm glad to see it adopted.

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

NOAA research labs are essential to preparing for the devastating severe weather events that are only becoming more common, and protecting key environmental resources like the Great Lakes we rely on.

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

@meng.house.gov and @repespaillat.bsky.social introduced an amendment that would strike a provision in this bill that stops the ATF from regulating ghost guns. We cannot take away ATF's ability to defend our communities from violent crime, and I proudly voted in support of this amendment.

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

Rep. Rosa DeLauro's amendment would restore this funding and provide the support our law enforcement needs. I voted in support of this amendment, but the Republican majority did not let it pass.

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

Even Trump's own appointee was in favor of more funding than the President's budget, yet Republicans have proposed cutting the FBI by more than half a billion dollars.

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

The FBI is critical to keeping Americans safe, from fighting against financial crimes to combating drug cartels and protecting our communities from terrorism.

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

I am deeply concerned about this bill. It's cuts to the Economic Development Administration will rip away opportunities for communities like ours to get ahead. When we shortchange investment at home, we hand our global competitors an advantage.

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

We just finished opening comments on the bill. Again and again, Republicans show the American people are not their priority. Their proposed spending would threaten our national security, make families less safe, harm our competitiveness, and threaten women's health and safety.

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

The Republican-proposed Commerce, Justice, and Science spending plan for 2026 defunds law enforcement and includes cuts that will leave American families to pay the price. Join me as I fight back alongside my @democrats-appropriations.house.gov colleagues:

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

The Labor, Health, and Human Services funding bill proposed by the Republicans does nothing to help American families pay their bills, put food on the table, or afford healthcare.

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

Today's mark up showed how Republicans are in lock-step with the draconian cuts being pursued by the Trump administration. House Democrats are going to keep fighting for the American people and the resources that support them.

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

My amendment would restore funding for this critical program, and I'll keep working to ensure support for the CCAMPIS program is included in the funding bill.

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

1 in 5 college students in America is also a parent. For them, childcare is not a convenience, it's a lifeline that determines whether they can stay in school. The Child Care Access Means Parents in School Program helps low-income students access before-and after-school programs.

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

Rep. Underwood's amendment would restore funding to the title 8 nursing workforce development program which this bill plans to cut by 15%. The Republican majority did not allow this amendment to pass.

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

Investing in the education and retention of our nursing workforce is a critical way to tackle the nursing shortage we're facing across the country.

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

We're about half way through the amendment process for the Labor, Health, and Human Services funding bill. One thing is very clear: we don't have partners in a bipartisan way in the fight to help middle class families.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govSep 9(source)

Republicans just voted against an amendment that would restore funding to programs that make that dream more accessible.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govSep 9(source)

This funding bill slashes $1.4 billion from federal student aid programs that help kids pay for college. The dream of pursuing a higher education and a better life has drifted out of reach for too many students.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govSep 9(source)

We're finally making progress on the opioid epidemic in America, now is not the time to decrease funding to SAMHSA. I voted in support of Rep. Dean's amendment to restore funding for homelessness prevention programs and treatment systems at SAMHSA.
