It’s been 23 long hours since @booker.senate.gov started speaking as the conscience of Congress on the Senate floor and using his voice to stand up for the American people. Stay strong, Cory! Thank you for meeting this critical moment.
Speaker Mike Johnson is trying to kill a bill that prevents new moms and dads from casting their vote by proxy vote. So far, he’s failed. Members of Congress shouldn’t be punished for starting a family — especially not by a man who’s voted remotely himself dozens of times.
A group of House Republicans rebelled against GOP leaders on Tuesday over their effort to block a vote on allowing proxy voting for new parents — thwarting other party priorities in the process and dealing an embarrassing blow to Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.).
The Trump Administration and Congressional Republicans want to take us back to a time when you had to pay to vote. Last night, I led a special order hour of the Congressional Black Caucus to make clear we won’t stand idly by and let that happen.
Last week in Washington, “Signalgate” dominated calls to my office from constituents outraged that top national security officials of the Trump Administration discussed war plans — and likely classified information — in a chat that inadvertently included a journalist. Read more in my newsletter. ⬇️
Today is #TransDayOfVisibility, an opportunity to uplift the trans and non-binary communities and celebrate their voices! Transgender lives are at risk today, and it’s our duty to defend and protect their right to exist.
Graphic. Background is photo of trans flag outdoors. Text reads: “INTERNATIONAL TRANSGENDER DAY OF VISIBILITY: CELEBRATING THE JOY AND RESILIENCE OF TRANS PEOPLE EVERYWHERE.” Logo of Rep. McClellan is present at the bottom center of the page.
On this last day of #WomensHistoryMonth, I spoke at the @feminist.org Young Feminist Leadership Conference about how far we have come, the backlash to that progress, how far we still have to go, and how the next generation can do its part to protect and build on that progress.

OTD in 1776, Abigail Adams wrote to her husband, imploring him and his fellow delegates to “remember the ladies and be more generous and favorable to them than your ancestors.” They didn’t. The Declaration of Independence did not recognize the fundamental rights of women at all.
As #WomensHistoryMonth comes to a close, we remember all those who worked to ensure the ideals upon which our country was founded ring true for women, shed light on their often untold stories, and vow to fight efforts to erase them.

I was excited to attend the 4th Annual James Solomon Russell Day Dinner to celebrate the extraordinary legacy of the founder of Saint Paul’s College and announce my bill to name the Lawrenceville post office in his honor.

The House Republicans’ SAVE Act will make it harder for women who have changed their name to vote. It’s voter suppression, plain and simple, and @demwomencaucus.bsky.social won’t stand for it.
105 years ago, women finally gained the right to vote. Republicans’ SAVE Act, expected on the floor next week, would make registering to vote nearly impossible for 69 million women who changed their name after marriage. We won’t let women’s voices be silenced.
It was another eventful week in Washington as I focused on addressing my constituents’ concerns when an unprecedented national security risk occurred. Keep watching to see what you missed this week.
It’s good to be back in Hampton Roads for the Navy League annual Congressional Luncheon. Despite chaos unleashed in Washington, I remain focused on ensuring military readiness and improving servicemember quality of life.

As it shifts responsibilities from the Department of Education to the Department of Health and cuts 20,000 HHS employees, the Trump Administration strangles our ability to keep Americans healthy and address the needs of students with disabilities. All communities will suffer as a result.
Too often, states and local governments have been unwilling or unable to provide every child what they need to succeed. The Department of Education fills those gaps. The Trump Administration’s illegal actions dismantling it leaves children behind. Read my full op-ed in @richmond.com below. ⬇️
