I appreciated the remarks by former New Orleans Mayor and Biden Administration Official Mitch Landrieu during the Social Justice Forum this week at CNU. Thank you for coming to Virginia’s Third District, Mitch!
Attended a resource fair today for job seekers who have recently experienced job loss. It’s great to see local organizations and employers working together to provide assistance and resources during this difficult time
Medicaid is a lifeline for millions of Americans, including over 1.7 million Virginians.  I held a roundtable today to discuss The Commonwealth Institute’s new report on how the Trump-Republican budget cuts to Medicaid will harm veterans and military families in Virginia.
The Trump Administration has a practice of taking legally questionable actions and seeking retribution on President Trump’s perceived enemies.   I am most upset about the needless harm this will cause to Harvard's students and all of us who rely on Harvard’s exceptional research.
Breaking news: The Trump administration has asked the Internal Revenue Service’s top attorney to revoke Harvard University’s tax-exempt status amid President Trump’s row with the institutions that his administration views as "woke."
President Trump and Elon Musk are considering completely eliminating Head Start, leaving more than a million families without access to high-quality child care. The ripple effect of this horrible decision will be felt by children, parents, workers, businesses, and our economy.
The White House's budget proposes eliminating Head Start, an early childhood education program that provides services to low-income families.
You cannot just declare someone to be a dangerous criminal, without a trial, and deport them, and even if there is a trial, it is the Judge, not the President, who imposes the sentence according to the law, not politics.
When you jail and deport people without due process, citizens and non-citizens alike need to be concerned.
Trump says he'd like to deport US citizens to El Salvador: "I'd like to go a step further. I don't know what the laws are, we always have to obey the laws, but we also have homegrown criminals that push people into subways... I'd like to include them in the group of people to get out of the country"
Gave remarks on and answered questions regarding the current landscape of higher education and financial aid during the Opening Session of the Virginia Association of Student Financial Aid Administrators’ Conference
