The Trump administration's choice to put students of color and LGBTQ+ students on the back burner is a dangerous rollback of civil rights. Our mission must be to ensure *all* students have access to a quality education free from discrimination. www.washingtonpost.com/education/20...

Under Trump, the Education Dept. has flipped its civil rights mission

The administration is prioritizing allegations that transgender students and students of color are getting unfair advantages while a backlog of other cases grows.

The Hampton VA Medical Center and the newly opened North Battlefield Outpatient VA Clinic in Chesapeake are facing severe staffing issues due to the Trump Administration’s ongoing attacks on the federal workforce and mass firings. VA workers & veterans deserve better. www.whro.org/military-vet...

Celebrated the 90th anniversary of Social Security at the Peninsula Agency on Aging. Trump and the GOP are laying off customer service workers, and making it harder for seniors to receive the benefits that they have earned. We must protect Social Security for today’s seniors & future generations.

Donald Trump imposed reckless tariffs that force American businesses and consumers to pay more. That is why inflation is on the rise. www.cnbc.com/2025/08/14/p...

Last night, I hosted a forum that made one thing clear– Closing Job Corps would devastate the students it serves, the employers who hire them, and the local economies they support.

If the president was serious about reducing crime in DC, he would not have sent a violent mob to the Capitol, he would not have pardoned more than 1,600 rioters, many of whom assaulted police officers, and he would have deployed the National Guard when they were actually needed on January 6th.

Congressman Bobby Scott@bobbyscott.house.govAug 11(source)

President Trump claimed crime is out of control in Washington, in spite of the fact that earlier this year the Department of Justice confirmed that crime in the District of Columbia is at a 30-year low.

Congressman Bobby Scott@bobbyscott.house.govAug 11(source)

President Trump’s plan to federalize Washington, D.C.’s Metropolitan Police Department and deploy the National Guard against Washingtonians has no legal or factual justification.
