Had a good conversation with senior officials in Secretary Kennedy’s office about making sure that facilities like Ridglan Farms can never misuse dogs again.
I believe he agrees, but action is required. He can do this.
If a facility has serious violations it should be shut down, period.

When I’m in Wisconsin meeting with constituents, I don’t hear a single person tell me that they want to spend their hard-earned money on a $1 billion golden ballroom. What I do hear is the rising costs of gas, groceries, healthcare & housing. This Administration promised to lower costs. They failed.
Later this month, I will be hosting a town hall in every county across my district!
More info at pocan.house.gov/services/upcoming-2026-town-halls.
I’m honored to join Rep. Houchin, @trahan.house.gov, and Rep. Valadao in introducing the bipartisan Campus Lifeline Act, which would give colleges greater access to 988 and the tools to better support students' mental health. (2/2)
The 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline saves lives. The more awareness we can raise about 988, especially among our young people, the better. (1/2)
From kindergarten through college, I attended public schools. Great teachers changed my life. The least we can do is pay them what they deserve. I will not stop fighting until that becomes reality. Happy Teacher Appreciation Week!
BREAKING: Gas prices have increased more than 50% as a direct result of Trump’s war with Iran.
Great to join Rev. Dr. Alex Gee at the grand opening of the new Center for Black Excellence.
The Center will be a fixture in our community for generations to come.
I was honored to secure $1 million in federal funds to help make it happen!

The American people are tired of corrupt politicians selling out to the highest bidder. Leaders like @pocan.house.gov and @repmcgovern.bsky.social know that getting our democracy to work means getting money out of politics and ending Citizens United.
But what does that really mean? On this week’s episode of With Liberty and Justice for Some, we answer that question and more with one of our nation’s top political scientists, @normornstein.bsky.social. (2/2)
As we watch Trump’s increasingly erratic behavior, more and more of us are calling on his cabinet to invoke the 25th Amendment. (1/2)
Trump's unnecessary war with Iran is making life too damn expensive, especially for the farmers in my district who grow our nation's food. It’s time to finally end the war and bring prices down!

Ballots were already in voters' hands in Louisiana, yet the Supreme Court still threw out its own 32-day waiting period to ram through a gerrymander.
At this point, there is no doubt that they are not just putting their finger on the scale, but acting as an arm of the Republican Party.
To all of the hardworking civil servants in Wisconsin and across the country, my message is this: America needs you, and we have your back. #PublicServiceRecognitionWeek
As Co-Chair of @laborcaucus.house.gov, I am fighting in Congress to oppose the Trump administration's continued attacks on federal workers and the services that we all rely on.
But NOW, Senate Republicans are trying to charge TAXPAYERS $1 BILLION in security upgrades in their latest budget proposal for “East Wing Modernization Project,” (which is just code for the ballroom.) (2/2)
Let me get this straight.
First Trump said his ballroom was going to cost $200 million and it was all going to be donated.
Then it was $300 million, then $400 million. (1/2)
Very happy to see the beagles from Ridglan Farms enjoying their freedom!

Whether you’re a Democrat, Republican, or Independent, we can all agree that billionaires and big corporations buying up politicians like they’re just another vacation home is simply not right.
We need to end Citizens United.

Our government is supposed to be of the people, by the people, and for the people. Not corporations. It's time to overturn Citizens United!
