SCOTUS is taking up Trump’s attack on birthright citizenship, but let’s be clear: the 14th Amendment guarantees citizenship by birth, and no president can rewrite our Constitution with the stroke of a pen.

I’m grateful to Rep. Jayapal for her partnership in opposing the expansion of private detention centers and in defending our immigrant communities.
Everyone deserves fairness and dignity. House Democrats will keep fighting for an immigration system that lives up to those principles.

Shower heads? We’re talking about shower heads? 🚿🫠
At the end of the month, ACA tax credits will expire and healthcare costs will skyrocket.
My House Democrat colleagues and I are fighting to protect affordable care and put our communities first.
I went to the House floor to wish a happy retirement to all my House Republican colleagues who are leaving Congress instead of running for reelection on their disastrous record!
House Democrats have and always will fight for all Americans and work to deliver a government that works for the people.
Proud to support legislation which will phase out the use of private migrant detention centers that go against our values and hold existing facilities accountable for unsafe conditions.
Proud to stand with Rep. McIver every single day as she fights these politicized charges against her.
With you then, with you now.
Trump’s comments dehumanizing an entire ethnicity and my colleague Rep. Ilhan Omar are disgusting and beneath his office - something that everyone, including House Republicans, should speak up against. This is not who we are as a country.
That's why Rep. Ilhan Omar & I introduced legislation to establish a program that funds local workforce boards to cover childcare costs so parents can build new skills & support their families.
No working parent should ever feel left behind.
Expanding affordable childcare & training opportunities is essential for working families.
Last night I spoke with Emily and James to let them know our office is here to assist and that I look forward to doing this critical work - together.
These are challenging times for our neighbors and creating solutions to those challenges requires a coordinated effort at the federal, state, and local levels.
Congratulations to Mayors-Elect James Solomon and Emily Jabbour!
It has been a privilege to work with both of them the last several years and I look forward to continuing our work together for those we have the honor of representing.
Proud to join my colleagues in opposing this last-minute Republican push to add an AI moratorium into the NDAA that would shut down any progress states have already made.
A blanket ban on state AI laws would stop New Jersey from advancing responsible AI regulation and derail the common-sense guardrails we’re already leading on.
House Republicans have TWELVE legislative days in DC to protect healthcare for millions of Americans and extend ACA tax credits before they are set to expire.
I signed a discharge petition to extend credits by 3 years, and House Democrats are ready to support that. When will House GOP step up?
This Admin keeps harming the most vulnerable in our communities, and that’s why we’re fighting back.
That’s why I joined Rep. Frank Pallone, Rep. Rosa DeLauro, and Rep. Maxine Waters to demand that the Trump Admin immediately undo changes to HUD's Continuum of Care program and keep families safely, stably housed.
