It is not too late to change course. A majority of House members now support voting on an extension of the ACA enhanced premium tax credits. Yet Speaker Johnson would rather play games with people’s lives than provide relief to millions who want to know they can get care without going bankrupt.
House Republicans have paid for permanent tax breaks for billionaires on the backs of the American people. At a time when people are already struggling with higher costs, this bill will heighten anxieties as individuals are forced to choose between paying for their health care, food or rent.
Now, in the eleventh hour, Republican leadership brought forth a bill that does nothing to bring down costs for the millions of Americans who will see their health insurance premiums skyrocket in just 15 days, while recycling failed ideas from their prior efforts to repeal and replace the ACA.
For months, I have sounded the alarm on the devastating impact that the expiration of the ACA enhanced premium tax credits would have on millions of Americans. Those concerns have fallen on deaf ears, as House Republican leadership refuses to address the looming health care crisis they created.
In just 15 days, health insurance premiums will skyrocket for more than 20 million Americans. Small business owners, farmers and self-employed workers will be forced to make impossible choices. We still have time. Congress must act now to extend the ACA tax credits.
Yesterday, the @energycommerce.bsky.social Communication & Technology Subcommittee explored ways to improve the nation’s public safety communications system.  As localities modernize their 911 emergency systems, federal funding must ensure no community gets left behind.
We now have the 218 signatures needed to bring a three-year extension of the ACA enhanced premium tax credits to the floor for a vote. Let’s bring relief to the millions worried about their health insurance premiums spiking next year. Speaker Mike Johnson must bring this to the floor immediately.
At 16, Barbara Johns led a student walk to protest the deplorable conditions at R.R. Moton High School. Her actions helped desegregate Virginia schools as part of the Brown v. Board of Education decision. Today, the Virginia delegation unveiled her statue in the U.S. Capitol.

After months of inaction, Republicans introduced a last-minute package that fails to address the health care crisis they created. I anchored a @cbc.house.gov Special Order Hour demanding the permanent extension of the ACA enhanced premium tax credits before they expire at the end of the year.
Congress created the DOE to fill gaps states and local governments could not fill to ensure every child received a quality education. I joined @repjahanahayes.bsky.social to highlight the devastating consequences for children and families if the Trump Administration continues to dismantle it.
The horrific shooting at Brown University has left families inconsolable and a community shaken. Last night, I stood for a moment of silence for the victims, including Midlothian High School graduate Mukhammad Aziz Umurzokov. My heart goes out to his family and all those impacted by gun violence.
This #BillOfRightsDay, we celebrate the ratification of the first ten amendments into the U.S. Constitution. Rooted in the Virginia Declaration of Rights and written by Virginians, the Bill of Rights was intended to “fortify the rights of the people against the encroachments of the government.”
This marks our last scheduled week of work in 2025 with only 5 days left to extend enhanced premium tax credits under the Affordable Care Act before they expire and cause insurance premiums to skyrocket for millions of Americans. Read more in my newsletter below ⬇️
As the first Black woman in Congress to represent Virginia, I stand on the shoulders of John Mercer Langston, the first Black man to represent Virginia. Today on his 196th birthday, we honor his legacy.
