A recap of our week in the Republican controlled House of Representatives.

A record 24 million people are enrolled in Affordable Care Act plans this year! This is what progress looks like: real, tangible help for everyday Americans across the country.

The wildfires in Los Angeles are another tragic reminder: climate change isn’t just a future problem. It’s here. Now. My heart goes out to everyone affected.

Landlords working together to artificially inflate rents is price-fixing, plain and simple. The housing market is being rigged by a few big corporations, and the DOJ is right to take them on!

US Justice Department accuses six major landlords of scheming to keep rents high

The U.S. Justice Department is suing several large landlords for allegedly coordinating to keep Americans’ rents high.

One of the root causes of our dysfunction in politics is the fact that billionaires treat elections like auctions, donating unlimited sums to Super PACs. This is why overturning Citizens United is crucial. I wonder if the Republican majority will listen to the American people.

In 1965, the CEO-to-worker pay ratio was 21-1. Last year, it was 191-1. The ultra-rich will try to distract us with culture wars, but we need to stay laser-focused on corporate greed.

I challenge every one of my colleagues who believes the national minimum wage should stay at $7.25 to try to survive on it! Seriously. If anyone thinks it’s a liveable wage, I want to see them actually give it a try.

No one should have their financial future ruined because of medical debt. The Biden Admin’s decision to ban medical debt from credit reports is a big win for working people!

Americans won’t have to worry about unpaid medical bills damaging their credit reports and scores much longer.

January 6th was one of the darkest days in our nation’s history & a stain on our tradition of a peaceful transfer of power. While I wish the results were different, I supported certifying the election because the peaceful transfer of power is what makes our democracy work.

Nobody knows our congressional districts better than the Members who represent them. I’m excited to kick off our #MagicMonday reboot with my good friend Rep. Dina Titus who shows she knows Las Vegas better than anyone!

January 6th, 2021 will go down in history as a day when rioters, tricked by a desperate, defeated President, failed to hijack our democracy. I saw it with my own eyes and it will stay with me forever.

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govJan 5(source)

I would encourage anyone who does not support increasing the national minimum wage to try surviving on $7.25 an hour.

Democrats took on Big Pharma to lower the cost of prescriptions… and won! Starting this year, seniors on Medicare will pay no more than $2,000 per year for their prescriptions.

From taking on corporate greed, to standing up for civilians in Gaza, 2024 was a busy year. In 2025, I will continue fighting for working people across America.

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govJan 2(source)

Culture wars are in billionaire elites’ best interest. They want us to fight each other instead of coming together to take on corporate greed.
