This month’s episode of Moments with McClellan stars the 2016 National Teacher of the Year: @repjahanahayes.bsky.social!
Keep watching to see why once a teacher, always a teacher ⬇️
Our farmers face a series of challenges with the climate crisis and rising costs, in an industry that operates on tight margins.
Until Republicans work with Democrats to develop a bill that gives our farmers the resources they need, I will continue to stand against their misplaced priorities.
This bill undermines public health by cutting funding for conservation and protecting the $187 billion in cuts to nutrition programs made in the Big Ugly Law — condemning families and children to go hungry.
For these reasons, I voted no until we put forth a bill that addresses these issues.
It does not provide any additional funding for programs serving new or underserved farmers or rural small businesses, and it ignores the request from specialty crop farmers for $5 billion in economic relief.
As family farmers struggle to recover from the $54 billion in losses they’ve suffered under this Administration, this bill does not provide any additional farm assistance to help them offset the damage done from tariffs, rising input costs and low commodity prices.
As the backbone of our economy, our farmers deserve action from Congress that doesn’t take them for granted. Yet this latest Farm Bill spearheaded by House Republicans does little to address this uncertainty.
Since coming to Congress, I’ve met with farmers all across my district to hear their concerns for the future, where they’ve expressed anxiety over their finances, upended by rising costs and an economic crisis caused by the Trump Administration’s senseless tariff war.
As the #1 private industry in the Commonwealth, Virginia boasts a large agricultural sector. We rely heavily on our farms, 90% of which are family-owned, to keep families fed and ensure our local economies and communities thrive.
Here’s why the Republican Farm Bill fails to deliver for farmers 🧵

Last night, House Republicans chose a $70 billion blank check to ICE and CBP over ending the DHS shutdown.
Read New Dem Leadership's full statement.
Watch my full remarks here with @energycommerce.bsky.social:
As Trump’s war with Iran spikes energy costs, Republicans have focused on stripping investment from renewable energy that could help us combat this crisis.
Today’s Energy Subcommittee hearing focused on meeting exploding demand affordably is a day late and a dollar short. We can and must do more.
The vast majority of Americans across the political spectrum do not want FISA to be reauthorized in its current state.
I oppose authorization without reforms to protect privacy rights and civil liberties from an Administration that seeks to weaponize these tools to target its political enemies.
The language of the Fourth Amendment clearly protects the people from unreasonable searches and seizures. Instead of upholding our constitutional rights, Speaker Johnson chose to bend the knee to the Trump Administration’s goals of conducting widespread, unchecked surveillance of the public.
I voted no because the bill fails to provide critical measures to stop the widespread surveillance of Americans’ private communications data and does nothing to stop the ongoing abuse of FISA.
Despite opposition from both sides, Speaker Johnson sought to jam a three-year reauthorization through the House without any reforms to protect Americans’ privacy.
Last week, he tried to force a five-year reauthorization for a vote and failed on a bipartisan basis. Today, he tried again.
Protesters, journalists and government officials have been subjected to searches that violate the intent of the legislation.
Additionally, loopholes and a lack of privacy legislation allow agencies to purchase data and conduct searches without warrants, circumventing the Fourth Amendment.
When Congress enacted Section 702 of FISA in 2008, lawmakers intended to expand the government’s ability to conduct surveillance on suspected foreign terrorists.
Since then, Section 702 has been exploited to spy on American citizens.
Today, the House voted to reauthorize Section 2 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA).
I voted no. Here’s why 🧵
I condemn all efforts to roll back the progress we have made over the past century. These attacks cannot go unchecked.
I’ll continue working to pursue all avenues to defend the protections that allowed millions of people, including my family, to exercise their right to participate in our democracy.
