I don’t trust this administration to prioritize public health or to deal in facts, so it’s on us to hold them accountable.

@energycommerce.bsky.social spent hours debating with our Republican colleagues in committee yesterday. And it was clear Rs want to act as if this is business as usual - but it’s clearly not. We're facing a public health crisis manufactured by the Trump admin, and House Democrats are fighting back.
If they bring it to the floor, I'll vote no - because I care a lot more about the 203,000 in our district who rely on Medicaid than I do about providing a financial windfall to giant corporations.
The GOP is scrambling to find the votes to pass a budget that cuts Medicaid - a healthcare program that covers children, pregnant women and seniors - to pay for corporate tax cuts.
At today's Energy & Commerce hearing, we discussed what it takes to make America healthy again - investing in our healthcare programs, pandemic preparedness & life-saving research. Meanwhile, Rs are looking to make cuts across the board - that’s not the way to improve our health outcomes.

Kind of interesting how a thread standing up for federal workers and criticizing Elon Musk conveniently experiences a "glitch” on the platform that…. Elon Musk owns 🤔
Great Tele-Town Hall tonight with my friend @replamonica.bsky.social! Thanks to all of you who took the time to share your concerns and hear from us. Stay tuned for my next Town Hall on March 5th!
Our team had an incredible visit to the USNS Watson at Bayonne Dry Dock! I was proud to join local veterans and dedicated military personnel to tour this vessel that’s being worked on here in the district (and got to meet a constituent from Hoboken who is stationed on this ship).
Finally, as we mark this somber anniversary, let's remember that Ukraine’s fight is not just their fight—it's a fight for freedom, democracy, and human rights worldwide. Together, we stand with Ukraine. 🇺🇦
Quick, friendly reminder: Putin IS an ACTUAL dictator who has never been a friend to our country.
Trump's recent comments calling President Zelensky a "dictator" are a distortion of fact and history. Ukraine is a free nation, and Zelensky was democratically elected. We must stand firm in supporting their sovereignty and right to self-determination against Putin’s invasion.
I proudly cosponsored the Stand with Ukraine Act and the REPO for Ukrainians Act—crucial legislation that strengthens Ukraine’s defense, supports refugees, and holds Russia accountable for its invasion.
We’ll keep pushing until Ukraine’s victory is secured.
As a Jersey City resident, it brings me so much pride to see how our city has welcomed so many Ukrainian refugees and how our Ukrainian neighbors have stepped up BIG time to advocate for Ukraine’s future. 🫶
We’ve met with our neighbors and friends from the American Coalition for Ukraine to hear directly from them about how we can provide more support and address the challenges they face during this difficult time.
I sat down with NJ Spotlight News to emphasize the importance of ensuring Ukraine and President Zelensky are at the table when their country’s fate is being discussed. Ukraine’s future must be shaped by Ukrainians, and they must be part of any peace talks about their sovereignty.

Today marks 3 years since Russia's unprovoked invasion of Ukraine. I will continue to stand by our ally as they bravely defend their land and future.
From Day One, we have stood by our Ukrainian friends here and abroad. Here’s how🧵:
Drastic cuts to Medicaid and other healthcare programs would hurt our most vulnerable including children and pregnant women. That is unacceptable.
@housedemocrats.bsky.social offer a better path forward, but we must be clear, forceful & disciplined in showing that to the American people.
Watch 👇
None of this is right, and we should all be angry about it. So just know I will keep fighting back and standing up for all those who serve the red, white, and blue.
Bottom line: we should want our best and brightest serving our country. But when Trump and Musk attack those who have dedicated their careers to the 🇺🇸 and undermine their work, we are driving them - good, qualified Americans - away from the work that will shape the future of our country.
Baseless firings will lead to worse health outcomes and higher costs for the most vulnerable in our communities and will stall critical research on diseases like cancer and Alzheimer’s (RIP abuela).
