1/ I joined @coons.senate.gov, @bluntrochester.senate.gov, & leaders from Beebe Healthcare to cut the ribbon on their new Mobile Health fleet, which will bring essential services to our neighbors across Sussex County—and with it, the hope and dignity that come from quality, community-centered care.

Rep. McBride helps cut the ribbon on the fleet.

I had to make sure everyone on Capitol Hill knew what today is—Delaware Day, the annual celebration of Delaware becoming the First (and objectively best) state in the Union. You’re welcome, America. #YouWishYouWereFirst

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govDec 7(source)

On Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day, we honor the servicemembers and civilians who lost their lives in the attack on Pearl Harbor. December 7, 1941—a date which will live in infamy—reminds us of their profound sacrifice and calls us to work toward a future defined not by conflict, but by peace.

2/ It's why I'm supporting the bipartisan Dismantle Foreign Scam Syndicates Act to hold the foreign criminal organizations behind these schemes accountable and ensure that Delawareans—and people across the country—can recover the hard-earned assets stolen from them.

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

1/ Delawareans lost more than $34 million to scams last year—and it's only getting worse.

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

2/ Thank you for the honor of serving what is truly the greatest state in the Union.

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

1/ Delaware was on repeat for me this year. From the bills we introduced to make life more affordable for our neighbors to solving issues with federal agencies for Delawareans, this work is powered by your courage, your voices, and—of course—lots of coffee.

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

We must have a health care system that puts people over profits, but to get there, we need real people—patients, caregivers, and providers—driving the conversation, not insurance companies, big pharma, or health care conglomerates.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govDec 2(source)

2/ They have no interest in solving this crisis—even as my constituents and people across the country see their premiums spike. Democrats in the House and Senate will continue to hold them accountable for driving up the cost of care.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govDec 2(source)

1/ Every step of the way, congressional Republicans have tried to sabotage the Affordable Care Act and make health care more unaffordable and inaccessible.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govDec 2(source)

2/ Delaware’s Paid Family & Medical Leave law—which I was proud to lead in the State Senate and am working to expand nationwide in Congress—will strengthen families, support small businesses, & make our state more affordable for the people who make Delaware home. Learn more at de.gov/paidleave.

Delaware Paid Leave - Delaware Department of Labor

Announcement: The Division of Paid Leave is not charging penalties or interest on any 2025 quarterly PFML Hours & Wage submissions and contribution payments as long as they are submitted by March 31, ...

1/ No one should have to choose between their job and the people they love. And in just one month, Delaware will enter its Paid Leave Era.

2/ This year, the Trump administration refused to acknowledge it, but we won’t let their ignorance or their reckless cuts to public health programs define the story. I’ll continue fighting to expand HIV prevention, care, and research—in the United States and around the world.

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

1/ For nearly four decades, the United States has recognized December 1st as World AIDS Day—a day when we mourn those who have died from the disease and renew our commitment to ending the HIV/AIDS epidemic.

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

2/ We discussed how we can work together to empower the small businesses that are the backbone of our communities—including addressing the looming health care cuts and rising energy costs impacting our neighbors.

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

1/ I was glad to join @coons.senate.gov and @bluntrochester.senate.gov to meet with the Central Delaware Chamber of Commerce and hear about the challenges facing Kent County’s business community.

Senator Coons, Senator Blunt Rochester, and Rep. McBride during the conversation.

Wishing our neighbors across Delaware—and families all across the country—a warm and joyful Thanksgiving. Grateful today and every day for the opportunity to serve the greatest state in the Union.

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

Our communities are strongest when we show up for one another. Proud to join Big Ive’s Thanksgiving Drive this morning, where the Wilmington community rallied together to deliver food to families across the city. This is the spirit that makes Delaware a state of neighbors.

Rep. McBride with elected officials and local leaders.

6/ Fortunately for me, that reservoir still has a lot of hope left. And I'm not gonna let anyone take it from me.

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

5/ He shared his advice for this moment, discussed the need to meet people where they are, to defend our values without defending the status quo, and why, despite our politics today, we can't give up hope.
