Today is #WorldKidneyDay — and there's no better time to fight for the people who give the gift of life.
I'm proud to cosponsor the Living Donor Protection Act, which ensures living organ donors can't be denied insurance or lose job protections for donating a kidney.

Congratulations to DC Vote on their new Executive Director, Amy Vruno.
At a critical time for the District, her experience in organizing and coalition building will strengthen the fight for democracy and self-determination for DC’s 700,000 residents.
#DCStatehood
DC’s local courts handle matters that directly affect the District’s 700K residents, yet jurors in the Superior Court have sometimes been paid less than jurors in federal courts.
I introduced my bill to ensure Superior Court jurors receive the same pay as those serving in federal court.
The State Department has set up a form for Americans seeking help evacuating from Israel, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, or Qatar to request assistance.

The GSA is planning to dispose of federal buildings in SW DC on a piecemeal, ad hoc basis, seemingly without a plan to maximize sale prices or drive economic growth.
I'll question the GSA Administrator at today's T&I subcommittee hearing shortly.

My Republican COGR colleagues have held two hearings on fraud in MN, yet remain silent about the most corrupt administration in history.
If they truly cared about accountability, they’d object to the firing of 17 inspectors general.
I released my full remarks from today’s hearing.
Reminder: Community Project Funding applications are due to my office by 5:00 pm on Friday, 3/6.
The US is one of just six UN members that has not ratified the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women, a treaty that would strengthen the legal foundation for combating gender discrimination.
Today, I introduced a resolution urging the Senate to ratify CEDAW.
Last year, I urged Secretary Rubio to secure the release of Tofiq Yagublu, the father of one of my constituents. Tofiq is on another hunger strike to protest the violation of his human rights. I will continue to push for his release.
I announced my office's Community Project Funding application process for Fiscal Year 2027.
Applications must be submitted to NortonCommunityProjectFunding@mail.house.gov by 5:00 pm on March 6, 2026 to be considered.

My office is now accepting art submissions for the 2026 Congressional Art Competition. The submission deadline is March 27th at 5 p.m. Please visit my website, norton.house.gov/services/art..., for further information. We look forward to seeing the amazing creations from our young constituents!
I patiently await statements from members who have introduced bills to alter DC’s criminal laws announcing they no longer intend to move their legislation forward.
Last night, Pres. Trump declared “DC is now one of the safest cities in the country” and “We have almost no crime anymore.”
If crime is at “the lowest level ever recorded,” as he says, there's no justification for Congress to continue meddling in DC’s local criminal laws.
Clean water isn't optional; it's fundamental to public health and safety.
The recent wastewater spill into the Potomac underscores the urgent need for a secondary drinking water source so residents and the federal gov aren't left at the mercy of a single, aging system.
I’ve called on Sec. Rubio to expel and bar reentry of any Azerbaijani officials involved in the violent attack on peaceful protestors outside the Waldorf Astoria in DC.
An assault on demonstrators is also an assault on the First Amendment. Those responsible must be held accountable.
Today I introduced legislation to guarantee that DC has full access to federal forestry research funds.
DC is home to the nation’s only urban land-grant university, UDC. The District’s schools deserve access to the same resources as states.
Ramadan Kareem to all who observe.
As this holy month begins, I’m wishing you and your loved ones peace, reflection, and an easy fast.
DC mourns the passing of former DC Shadow Senator Rev. Jesse Jackson, a tireless fighter for civil rights and #DCStatehood.
Rev. Jackson believed in the power of ordinary people to bend history towards justice. His legacy challenges us to continue the work.
Although Frederick Douglass didn’t know his actual birthday, he celebrated it on Valentine’s Day.
My #DCStatehood bill would name our 51st state "Washington, Douglass Commonwealth" to honor his work on equal rights for DC.
If Congress believes in democracy, it must trust the people of the District to manage their own affairs.
Interference in locally enacted DC laws only strengthens the case for #DCStatehood.
