When a senior receives a Social Security overpayment through no fault of their own, they shouldn't be left destitute while that money is recovered.
Republicans continue to impose their extreme ideology on women and take away healthcare decisions that should be between a patient and their doctor. Rep Lois Frankel's amendment would stop the anti-healthcare provisions of this bill, but Republicans refused to support it.
Keeping older Americans fed must be a priority. Meals on Wheels not only keeps seniors fed, but provides a point of contact for people who may be otherwise isolated. Republicans just abandoned our seniors and voted against an amendment to support this critical program.
This bill includes $2 billion in devastating cuts to HIV prevention, treatment and research programs. This is 25% of the entire budget. I voted in support of Rep. Mark Pocan's amendment to restore funding for these essential programs.
As the top Democrat on the Committee on House Administration, I’m focused on making sure every eligible American can vote safely and securely. Power belongs to our citizens—we should be expanding access, not taking it away.
If they are so supportive of the President's agenda, why do they refuse to increase transparency and show the public what is really going on?
Rep Steny Hoyer's amendment would require the NIH to brief Congress on the impacts of the politicization of American science, including the cancellation of national institutes of health grants and the loss of scientists. Republicans refused to support this amendment.
While the Trump administration is busy destroying the National Institutes of Health, Republicans in Congress on the Appropriations Committee are stopping efforts by Democrats to increase transparency and find out what is going on at the NIH.
Title I is a cornerstone of our federal investment in public education. Republicans proposed cuts to the program that would kick 72,000 teachers out of classrooms. The amendment to protect teachers and students from these devastating cuts? Voted down by the Republican majority.
While debating an amendment to protect no-cost coverage for vaccines, Rep. Aderholt said, "The scientific process is an adversarial process." The scientific process is not adversarial. It's data, it's research, and it's the foundation for every advancement that has shaped today's world.
Rep. Rosa Delauro's amendment would protect our children from the Trump administration's anti-vaccine agenda. The Republican majority did not allow this amendment to pass.
No part of this bill helps working families pay their bills, put food on the table, or afford healthcare. It perpetuates the false narrative that families who struggle are fully to blame, that there are no external challenges or obstacles to overcome.
We finished opening comments on the bill & it's clear, Republican priorities do not lie with the American people. The bill cuts billions from K-12 schools, slashes lifesaving NIH research, cuts women's health programs, and abandons college students & low-income workers.
Just two members of Congress and the MVP who took out @repkweisimfume.bsky.social’s Ravens in the comeback of the century on Sunday. Go Bills!
Republicans are pushing a spending plan that puts public education, lifesaving medical research, and women’s health care on the chopping block. I'm on the House floor today to fight back—and push for programs that actually help American families. Watch here:
As top Democrat on the Committee on House Administration, I'm constantly working to keep members of Congress safe. Violence of any kind has no place in our democracy, and we need leaders to take a step back from the dangerous rhetoric fueling this.
