Two years ago, the Supreme Court’s decision in Allen v. Milligan affirmed that states cannot draw racially discriminatory legislative maps to weaken the power of voters of color. The fight for fair access continues, but this ruling was a meaningful step toward justice.

Honored to join the congregation of Resurrection Lutheran Church in Rochester as they celebrate 100 years of faith, service, and community. Congratulations on a century of spiritual leadership—and many more to come.

At a time when we need the next generation to lead us forward, failing to invest in the resources they need is shortsighted and irresponsible.

Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govJun 7(source)

Supporting our veterans is not a partisan issue—it’s an American issue. I was honored to speak with members of the Rochester American Legion and share updates on my work to uphold our commitment to service members—both during active duty and after they return home.

On this day in 1944, Allied forces stormed the beaches of Normandy, marking the beginning of the end of World War II. We honor the courage of the heroes of D-Day—and remember those who gave the last full measure of devotion to defend liberty and shape a freer world.

Families are still fighting to pay their monthly bills. Our citizens shouldn't have to 'prove they matter,' in order to access critical medical services. Every American deserves access to quality, affordable healthcare.

The Republican rescission package hurts our freedoms at home and our security abroad. This is not fiscal responsibility—this is just more of the same chaos, confusion, and corruption.

On this day in 1919, Congress passed the 19th Amendment. In Susan B. Anthony’s hometown of Rochester, we honor the trailblazers who fought for women’s suffrage—and recommit to the work ahead to ensure every eligible American can cast their vote.

Republicans have proposed cuts to Medicaid that would devastate the services older Americans rely on. Our seniors spent their lives working and contributing to our communities—this plan to abandon them as they age is simply cruel.

How cutting Medicaid could upend long-term care for many older Americans

Experts told PBS News that there are ways to ensure older adults get the quality and type of care they need, but most require more resources, not less.
