Last week, Republicans slashed $9.6 million from PBS North Carolina. That decision will hurt students, rural communities, and public safety.
Public media is a lifeline. I opposed those cuts and I'll keep fighting to fund vital public broadcasting.

On this day 35 years ago, the Americans with Disabilities Act became law. It was a hard-won victory and a milestone in the fight for civil rights.
There is still work to be done. I remain committed to building a more accessible and inclusive future for all.
I joined @foushee.house.gov in demanding that the Trump admin release funds that rightfully belong to Wake County schools.
Today, Trump reversed his decision. He should've never withheld this congressionally-approved funding to begin with.
Speaker Johnson shut down the House to keep the Epstein Files from being shared with the public.
Protecting Trump over the victims of these crimes is a gross injustice.

WAKE COUNTY: Join me Tuesday, July 29 for a town hall in Knightdale.
I want to hear your thoughts on what's happening in Washington and how it impacts you, your family, and our community.

As they should.
No president can violate the constitution by decree.

Parents, teachers, and students will suffer if Trump withholds this education funding.
I'll keep fighting alongside @foushee.house.gov to make sure NC students have the support they need.

Trump told the American people he hadn't been informed his name was in the Epstein Files.
That was a lie.
Republicans need to stop covering for Trump and start fighting for the victims of this tragedy.
16 years ago, the federal minimum wage increased to $7.25/hour. It hasn't budged since.
That's the longest span in American history with no increase.
It's far past time we change that. I sponsored the Raise the Wage Act so that American workers can earn the wage they deserve.
Today, we should be voting to lower costs for Americans.
Instead, the House is closed because Speaker Johnson doesn't want to release information about Epstein. What a disservice to the American people.
After a lifetime of hard work, seniors should be treated with dignity.
Instead, the administration has quietly ended the Senior Community Service Employment Program, which helps seniors find jobs and make a living.
This is shameful. Trump is hurting seniors without remorse.
Trump is still illegally withholding funds from Head Start, energy projects, and public health grants. Trump's assault on the services people rely on is bad for communities across the country.
Republicans in Congress need to do their job and take back their authority.
Prices are high, inflation isn't going down, and Trump's tariffs are only making things worse. But instead of tackling these issues, Johnson is shutting down the House because he doesn't want to release any information about Epstein.
Epstein should have never been granted a plea deal in 2008, but DOJ's top watchdog couldn't properly investigate.
That's why I introduced a bill with Rep. Robert Garcia to provide DOJ's Inspector General the power to investigate allegations of attorney misconduct.
When you're at the beach or the pool this summer, don't forget your sunscreen! July is UV Safety Awareness Month, when we encourage safe sun practices.
Protecting people from UV radiation is why I introduced the Safe Sunscreen Standards Act to modernize the sunscreen approval process ☀️
Cuts to Medicaid are not isolated. They will cause people to lose their insurance, including many Americans with disabilities.
Yet Republicans passed them anyway.

James Ferguson was a towering figure in North Carolina, dedicating his life to creating a more equal and just world.
He was brilliant and kind, a great mentor and a better friend. We will miss him dearly.

Republicans voted to cut funding for SNAP, knowing it would devastate hungry people across the country.
This is what they voted for. The most at-risk in our communities are hurt the most.
No one should have to worry that politics will stand between them and the care they need.
That's why I'm proud to introduce legislation to ensure states can't ban medications that have been approved by the FDA.
In the dead of night, Republicans passed their bill to claw back funding for public broadcasting and foreign assistance.
North Carolinians rely on public broadcasting to stay safe during storms & much more. This bill will hurt vulnerable people – both at home and abroad.
