5/ It is my hope that Republicans in Congress, who have proclaimed themselves "America First" and have tried to shed the Bush era warmongering reputation, will join me and many of my colleagues in supporting these measures to prevent a new era of forever wars.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govJan 4(source)

4/ As we head back to session this week, I fully support a renewed and urgent push for new War Powers Resolutions to prevent further military action in Venezuela and to forbid the expansion of this reckless pursuit of other countries' natural resources.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govJan 4(source)

3/ Unfortunately, despite receiving some bipartisan support, it was not enough to secure passage.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govJan 4(source)

2/ The American people do not want another generation of forever wars — and neither do I. It’s why I voted last month in favor of two War Powers Resolutions that would have prevented the actions in Venezuela this weekend and would prevent further escalation in the Caribbean.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govJan 4(source)

1/ Health care premiums are skyrocketing, housing is too expensive, groceries and prescription drugs too often break the bank — and now Donald Trump wants to put American lives and money on the line so that his billionaire buddies can get even richer off of other country’s oil and minerals.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govJan 3(source)

My statement on the Trump Administration’s actions in Venezuela.

For decades, presidents of both parties have irresponsibly expanded presidential power, circumventing both domestic and international safeguards in the name of national security. No modern American administration, however, has so routinely ignored the Constitution and misled Congress as the current one.

I have fidelity to our Constitution even if I do not have sympathy for Nicolás Maduro.

We live in the shadow of endless wars over regime change and oil, often launched in the language of democracy and safety. We have seen how overestimating the capacity for a peaceful transfer of power can lead to the illusion of short term success, while undermining our own security and global influence in the long term.

At a minimum, these individual actions legally and substantively demand Congressional action and public consultation. But collectively, the military operations we have seen in the Caribbean, the Pacific, and, now, on land in Venezuela, present a significant escalation of unilateral action that betrays a larger goal by this administration. Beyond arguments for or against any individual action, the Trump Administration is clearly seeking to remake the global order in a way that will, ultimately, benefit authoritarians and adversaries.

Our values and principles as a nation matter most when we have seemingly altruistic reasons to violate them. I oppose a “might makes right in my neighborhood” foreign policy. It is amoral, illegal, dangerous, and lays the foundation for bad actors like Russia and China. History is littered with conflict, atrocities, and global wars ushered in under that philosophy. And those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat its mistakes.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govJan 1(source)

To every Delawarean—and even those from our lesser states—happy holidays, and have a safe New Year.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govDec 31(source)

If I could sum up this year in one word, it would be perseverance. I see it every day in Delawareans trying to make ends meet. And I see it in our country in this moment—in those who show up, in the face of danger, to fight for our rights and our democracy. That perseverance inspires me daily.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govDec 30(source)

Constituent advocacy is at the heart of our office’s work. After hearing from a local family farmer about the impact of avian flu on his flock, we translated his concerns into bipartisan legislation. That’s what this work is all about— listening to Delawareans’ needs and meeting them with action.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govDec 30(source)

When I reflect on my work in Congress this year, I’m proud that it’s been grounded in a relentless focus on Delaware. I hope our neighbors see my love for this state—and my deep commitment to doing right by them.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govDec 26(source)

I'm wishing all in Delaware who are celebrating today a blessed Kwanzaa, centered on culture, family, and community. May this time be one of reflection, unity, and hope.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govDec 25(source)

2/ May this Christmas inspire care and compassion for one another, today and always.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govDec 25(source)

1/ Wishing the First State a Merry Christmas, surrounded by loved ones and filled with joy and renewed hope. As we come together this season, we also hold in our hearts those missing from our gatherings this year—family, friends, neighbors, and those who serve our communities.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govDec 24(source)

2/ Let us never become numb to the pain and loss that violence leaves behind. This holiday season, there will be a family mourning a loved one who, today, woke up, put on the uniform, and gave everything in defense of all of us.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govDec 24(source)

1/ Every day, Delaware law enforcement puts their lives on the line — a fact that this senseless act of violence tragically reinforces. My prayers are with the family, friends, and colleagues of the State Trooper killed while defending Delawareans today at the DMV.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govDec 23(source)

I have been briefed on the tragic shooting at the Wilmington DMV. I am praying for all of those impacted, including our brave law enforcement officers. I continue to be in touch with state officials as we all gain more information.

State police responding to active shooter at New Castle-area DMV

Delaware State Police posted on X about the active shooter with no additional details and said more updates are to follow.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govDec 21(source)

2/ Trumpcare is dangerous. It is deadly. And even when people do everything right, Republicans in Congress continue to fail them.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govDec 21(source)

1/ Delawareans are already feeling the effects of Trumpcare. Dave wrote to my office to share that without an extension of the ACA tax credits, his wife—who suffers from multiple ailments—and he will see their premium jump to $1,200 a month and will lose their coverage.

@mcbride.house.gov is right. It’s hard enough being a kid — and politicians don’t need to make it harder. Thank you, Congresswoman, for speaking out against the cruel Republican attacks on health care for trans youth.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govDec 17(source)

I was a kid once. And my biggest regret in life is that I never got a childhood without pain. Politicians should never insert themselves into the personal health care decisions of patients, parents, and their providers—and that includes trans Americans.
