Today marks 10 years since the Supreme Court's historic ruling in Obergefell v. Hodges legalized same-sex marriage across the United States. As we celebrate this landmark ruling, I will keep fighting to ensure full equality under the law for the LGBTQI+ community.

One in three women has received care at Planned Parenthood. The Supreme Court's decision will do irreparable harm to the millions of women who rely on Planned Parenthood for cancer screenings, birth control, and other lifesaving care.

The decision is a win for the Trump administration, which has made it a priority to actualize the GOP’s long-held goal of defunding Planned Parenthood.

First, one Republican senator says “we are all going to die” to defend their attempts to cut Medicaid and life-saving health care. Now another Republican senator says “they’ll get over it.” 16 million people should not lose health care to fund tax breaks for billionaires.

Today marks three years since SCOTUS overturned Roe v. Wade, stripping a constitutional right from the American people. Republican assaults on reproductive freedom have put women's lives in the crosshairs.

President Trump attacked another nation without congressional authorization. I have co-sponsored this resolution to terminate any ongoing military action by the United States against Iran unless authorized by Congress.

Trump struck Iran without any authorization of Congress. We need to immediately return to DC and vote on Rep. Thomas Masie and my War Powers Resolution to prevent America from being dragged into another endless Middle East war.
