Speaker Johnson would rather cancel all votes & hearings than simply have a vote on bipartisan legislation demanding release of the Epstein files, something he, Trump & Bondi have been demanding for months! A pathetic new low in political cowardice & legislative malpractice.

@raskin.house.gov: "They'd conscripted 1000 FBI agents to be working around the clock 24 hours going through 100,000 Epstein documents and told them to flag any mentions of Donald Trump... This might be one of the most massive cover-ups in the history of the United States unfolding before our eyes."

@raskin.house.gov on why Biden didn't release the Epstein files: "The DOJ under Biden brought the prosecution against Maxwell, so obviously Biden wasn't trying to suppress anything. The GOP stories make no sense. They say Biden & Obama made this stuff up about Trump but then they never released it?"
The Constitution gives Congress the power of the purse. The president's job is to "faithfully execute" the decisions we've made and he has signed into law. He may not impound, redirect or confiscate money outside federal law.
What do “The New Jim Crow” and the AP Psych textbook have in common? They’re two of the 596 books that Secretary Hegseth pulled from DoD schools. American servicemembers signed up to defend our freedom—their families shouldn’t be made victims of right-wing political correctness and censorship.
For six years, our MD-08 Local Hero, Manny Hidalgo, has led Shepherd’s Table in Silver Spring with energy and creativity, serving three meals a day, seven days a week, to our neighbors in need and working to uplift people experiencing homelessness.
We don't need Trump or Bondi to sift through the stack and tell America what they think is “credible” in the Epstein files. Thanks, but no thanks—we’ll decide ourselves. The president should stop playing us for fools and suckers. Release everything—now.
Trump’s rolling campaign of shakedown censorship, blackmail and purge has now felled the Late Show. But Stephen Colbert, a true-blue patriot and comic genius who skewers dunce-tyrants for a living, is irrepressible and invincible.
On this John Lewis National Day of Action, we remember John’s determination to put his body, heart and mind in the way of injustice and oppression. Honor this hero of the Civil Rights Movement by making good trouble to defend democracy and freedom.
Insatiable greed from Republicans in DC who aren't satisfied with the giant corporate tax breaks funded by prying away health care from 17 million Americans. They want to stage yet another ruling-class financial riot against the American people.

We won't allow union busting on Capitol Hill ✊
#ICYMI Last week, @raskin.house.gov joined @unitehere.org Local 23 for a rally demanding that incoming House food vendors rehire the existing workers and honor their union contract.
Read more about the rally here: rollcall.com/2025/07/09/h...
Democrats are in solidarity with the Capitol's food service workers rallying to keep their jobs and their health insurance. Union strong!
Enough is enough. Chairman Jim Jordan should bring AG Pam Bondi, Deputy AG Todd Blanche, FBI Director Kash Patel, and Deputy FBI Director Dan Bongino before the Judiciary Committee to reveal to Congress and America exactly what they know about the Epstein files.
We are all deeply grateful for Terrance's years of devoted service to Rep. Hoyer and the Free State. May his precious memory be a blessing to his family, friends and colleagues.
House Republicans just voted to block the release of the Epstein files. They're not acting like the "preeminent" branch of the government seeking justice, but like a petite lapdog asking for treats at the White House.
We're asking the Trump DOJ to come clean with what they know about Jeffrey Epstein's abuse of children.
If the files exist, get them off Attorney General Bondi's desk and into the hands of Congress and the American people.

@raskin.house.gov: "With Donald Trump going out on a limb and saying, leave me alone, let's just pretend the whole thing didn't happen, people are asking the question: WHY?"
Trump’s swinging his royal wrecking ball at the State Department, sacking the diplomats and civil servants who negotiate to end conflicts, defend human rights and save lives all over the world. Madness.
As an ACLU freedom-fighter, Deirdre Schifeling—this week's dynamic MD-08 Local Hero—uses her voice to educate, organize and advocate for the rights and freedoms of the people.
