The first 100 days of this administration serve as a warning sign of the real consequences of Trump’s disastrous economic policies.
In just 100 days, Trump has thrown an otherwise stable economy into chaos, forcing layoffs, rising prices, and market mayhem. Committee Democrats are determined to protect the progress made under President Biden and keep fighting for working families. democrats-edworkforce.house.gov/media/press-...
President Trump's first 100 days. Jobless claims are up. GDP is down. Stock market is down. Inflation is up. His reckless economic policies, tariffs and trade wars have been a disaster for the American economy and working class families.
Initial unemployment claims posted an unexpected increase last week in a potential trouble sign for the wobbling U.S. economy.
My staff insisted on “surprising” me with cake and ice cream for my birthday. They know I *love* this annual tradition. 🎂 Now we are back to work opposing the Trump chaos and fighting for students, workers and families.
The U.S. economy shrank in the first quarter of 2025— a stark contrast from strong 2.4 percent growth in Q4 2024 under President Biden. President Trump's reckless tariffs and trade wars are hammering middle-class Americans while the economy backslides.
The U.S. economy contracted in the first three months of 2025, fueling recession fears at the start of President Donald Trump’s second term in office as he wages a potentially costly trade war. More: cnb.cx/3YoBUD9
Donald Trump, Elon Musk and Congressional Republicans are attacking Medicaid, firing veterans, choking off medical research, and unleashing tariffs that are destabilizing the economy. Donald Trump’s disastrous first 100 days have been a failure for the American people.
HAPPENING NOW: The Committee is marking up Republicans' disastrous budget that will increase costs for students and borrowers and limit student opportunities — all to pay for tax cuts for the rich. 📺Watch now: democrats-edworkforce.house.gov/hearings/h-c...
Our nation was founded on the idea that we are all created equal and deserving of equal protection under the law. That is why I'm committed to passing the #EqualityAct into law—to ensure every American has a fair shot at success.
Today, Equality Caucus Chair @repmarktakano.bsky.social & our co-chairs reintroduced the #EqualityAct in the 119th Congress to enshrine explicit protections for the LGBTQI+ community into federal law & safeguard the rights of LGBTQI+ people. Read our full statement at the link in our bio.
Equality Act introduced in 119th Congress
Mass layoffs at the already underresourced National Labor Relations Board would be devastating, rendering it essentially inoperable and making it even harder for workers to form a union. @bobbyscott.house.gov, @repmarkdesaulnier.bsky.social, & @repcasar.bsky.social tell DOGE to keep your hands off.
House Democrats warn potential firings at the NLRB would be 'catastrophic' to an agency already severely understaffed www.theguardian.com/business/202...
I enjoyed saluting the performers, which included international groups and U.S. military personnel, this afternoon during the VA Arts Festival’s VA International Tattoo. The program paid tribute to our Army, Navy & Marine Corps as we celebrate their 250th Anniversaries this year
Today, I attended the Fine Arts Scholarship Awards, sponsored by Hampton Roads’ own Jay Pharoah & the Community Empowerment Fair, sponsored by the Lambda Omega Chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. These two events will provide much needed resources to people in this community
Former Hampton Sheriff B.J. Roberts diligently served this community for five decades and it was an honor to celebrate his memory today during the Ribbon-Cutting of the Hampton-Newport News Community Service Board’s B.J. Roberts Behavioral Health Center
Trump & Musk's reckless decision to eliminate the office that provides services for seniors and Americans with disabilities risks their safety and ability to live independently. Committee Democrats won’t be silent. Starting today, Republicans have 14 legislative days to answer.
Scoop: Democrats have introduced an official inquiry into the decision to closure of the Administration for Community Living, which helps disabled and aging adults remain independent. New from me at @motherjones.com. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
