Today, I joined dozens of my colleagues on the House floor to motion for an amendment to the Republican budget that would block any cuts to Medicaid or SNAP. Each time, the Republicans objected to the request -- because they want to cut Medicaid and SNAP.

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

I won’t stop fighting to protect Delawareans’ health care. This bill is Trumpcare, and Trumpcare means 17 million more Americans uninsured and all the rest of us paying higher costs and driving further to get care. That’s trickle down cruelty.

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

An urgent update on the Big Ugly Bill that the Senate is voting on. We all need to lift our voices RIGHT NOW to try to stop this heartless bill—and time is of the essence.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govJun 29(source)

It’s hot out—but you know what’s also hot? A tax plan that puts working families first. As a member of @newdems.bsky.social’s Economic Growth & Cost of Living Working Group, I’m proud to share our new framework to lower costs, support small businesses, & grow the economy—without gutting health care.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govJun 28(source)

2/ And while some Republican senators have admitted that their budget cuts health care and claimed they wouldn’t support Medicaid cuts, I won’t hold my breath that Republicans in Congress will stand by their principles.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govJun 28(source)

1/ Despite major pushback from their constituents and the public, Republicans in Congress remain hellbent on ripping health care away from millions of Americans—all to partially pay for tax breaks for billionaires while exploding the deficit.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govJun 27(source)

2/ Whether you agree with a candidate or an individual’s political views is irrelevant—calling for a U.S. citizen to be denaturalized and deported is an authoritarian affront to our constitutional and civil liberties.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govJun 27(source)

1/ For a sitting member of Congress to spew such vile, disgusting, and frankly, Islamophobic rhetoric is beyond shameful. Let’s be clear: this is part of a coordinated effort by the right to silence dissent and suppress legal participation in our democratic process.

2/ While we celebrate that milestone, we must also confront the reality we're in: SCOTUS and the majority party in Congress are actively rolling back our civil and fundamental rights. The fight for equality is never swift—but it’s one we must continue, even in the darkest moments.

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

1/ Ten years ago today, the Supreme Court was on the right side of history—declaring marriage equality law of the land.

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

The Delaware Nurses Association has a clear message for the majority party as they move to gut health care access in their budget bill: Save Medicaid. Protect our patients. I won’t back down—and neither will they.

Rep. McBride Statement on War Powers Resolution

Washington, D.C. — Today, Delaware’s Congresswoman Sarah McBride (D-DE) released the following statement:“Today, I joined as a cosponsor on a War Powers Resolution to prevent the president from taking...

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

My statement on cosponsoring a War Powers Resolution to prevent the president from taking this country to war with Iran:

Today, I joined as a cosponsor on a War Powers Resolution to prevent the president from taking this country to war with Iran.

I have always believed that Iran must not have a nuclear weapon. I believe that such a development would present a threat to regional stability, the safety of our allies, and the security of the United States. Iran has consistently been one of the largest sponsors of terrorism, including funding Hamas, a group that inflicted the deadliest attack on Jews since the Holocaust.

I have also always believed that diplomacy must be exhausted before any military action is contemplated. I believe that such actions should only happen if there is clear and convincing evidence that Iran is imminently proceeding to a bomb. Finally, I believe that we must have confidence that military action will be able to achieve its goals. Based on the information available, it does not appear that those standards were met before strikes commenced.

Indeed, after two weeks of military operations, including a strike by the United States, reports are that while Iran’s nuclear program is delayed, it still has uranium and enrichment capacity. Some speculate Iran may now have added motivation to pursue a bomb. It is difficult to know for sure because, through all of this, the administration has stonewalled and misled both members of Congress and the public.

I cannot in good conscience allow a president who appears to be silencing dissent within his administration and misrepresenting intelligence to unilaterally take us into another war in the Middle East. We have seen how seemingly endless wars, built on distorted intelligence, can cost America and Americans dearly. That is why I have co-sponsored a War Powers Resolution to prevent such a step.

It is not too late to return to a diplomatic approach—one that could secure a solution not dissimilar from the one negotiated by President Obama in 2015 and inexplicably ended by President Trump in 2018. Had that remained in place,…

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

2/ We need to build on the work we’ve done in Delaware and nationwide—lives are at stake.

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

1/ June is National Gun Violence Awareness Month. It’s a moment to remember those whose lives have been stolen by this vicious, preventable crisis. But “thoughts and prayers” have never been enough—because prayer without action is just complacency dressed up as compassion.

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

2/ Delaware remains a safe haven, but millions live in states where reproductive freedom is under attack. I won’t stop fighting until everyone—no matter where they live—has the freedom to make their own health care decisions.

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

1/ It’s been three years since SCOTUS gutted the constitutional right to abortion—ignoring 50 years of precedent, endangering women’s lives, and criminalizing reproductive care providers.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govJun 19(source)

And that because of their hard work—through the all too slow progress of change—justice arrived like a thunderbolt.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govJun 19(source)

But Juneteenth is more than just a date. It’s a call to action to never give up on the hard work of building a more perfect Union. To never give up on the efforts—and in many cases the sacrifices—of those who pushed for freedom.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govJun 19(source)

Today, we honor Juneteenth—Freedom Day. On June 19, 1865, more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation, news of freedom finally reached enslaved people in Galveston, Texas.
