Americans need a workforce development system that works for them and their families.
That's why I fought for the bipartisan, bicameral A Stronger Workforce for America Act to be included in the funding deal. Americans need this passed ASAP.

As the Dean of the Virginia Congressional Delegation, I was honored to present parting gifts to Representatives Bob Good, Abigail Spanberger and Jennifer Wexton. We are grateful for their service to the Commonwealth of Virginia and we will miss having them here in Congress.
Nikki Giovanni was a pioneering poet and a voice for equality, justice and civil rights. I have been following her work since I was a student in the Boston area where she frequently performed. My thoughts are with her family and all those touched by her life's work.

I was saddened to learn of the passing of my former colleague, John Spratt. We served together on the Budget Committee where I saw firsthand how John was a person of integrity who focused on solving problems & serving his constituents. I send my condolences to his family. apnews.com/article/form...
I enjoyed the Peninsula Youth Orchestra program during the @SoundscapesHR Holiday Concert and catching up with Co-Founder Reynaldo Ramirez
My staff and I had a great meeting today with Chesapeake Mayor Rick West, City Manager Chris Price and Naval officials regarding the $297M South Central Water and Sewer Transmission project
Not even "concepts of a plan" on this one.

Mark your calendars for October 1, 2025! Today, President Biden signed the FAFSA Deadline Act into law, ensuring the FAFSA form will be released on this date every year. This gives students more time to access the financial aid they need to make college more affordable! tinyurl.com/5h83bwmx
Proud to have served with Rep. Tony Cárdenas. He has been a tireless advocate for Californians. We worked together for a long time, even before he was in Congress, on juvenile justice reform.
I will miss having him in the People’s House.
As we move forward, it is incumbent on Congressional Republicans and the incoming Trump Administration to ensure future NDAAs prioritize national security and servicemembers, not culture wars.
However, I am disappointed that Speaker Mike Johnson and extreme MAGA Republicans included a reprehensible provision that would prohibit medical intervention for military dependents under the age of 18 who are diagnosed with gender dysphoria.
Many culture war provisions included in the original House-passed version of this year’s NDAA were ultimately rejected such as provisions attacking reproductive health care, demeaning LGBTQ servicemembers and undermining efforts to have a diverse fighting force.
The FY25 NDAA includes pay raises for servicemembers along with provisions focused on health care, housing, childcare, military spousal support, and civilian workforce benefits. It also provides support for shipbuilding and includes investments strengthen research at HBCUs.
Waterways in Hampton Roads support economic opportunities for Virginia. As we grapple w/ sea level rise & more frequent flooding, we must find innovative ways to protect our communities. Passing the Water Resources Development Act today supports that work by investing in water infrastructure.
This morning, I presented an entry I made in the Congressional Record to the family of Mr. David Walker. Mr. Walker attended I.C. Norcom High School before enlisting in the U.S. Navy in 1940. Tragically, he was killed defending our nation during the attack on Pearl Harbor.

NEWS: The Biden-Harris Administration has added 227,000 jobs in November.
Since Biden took office, the economy has added over 16.4 MILLION jobs - more than any other president in history. Read more: democrats-edworkforce.house.gov/media/press-...
Had a great afternoon with ADM Caudle of US Fleet Forces Command, ADM Vandier of NATO Allied Command Transformation and guests at the NATO/U.S. Navy Holiday Open House
I was honored to deliver the Commencement address today during Norfolk State University’s Fall Commencement Ceremony
It was an honor to attend the Pre-Christening Dinner last evening for the USS Arkansas (SSN-800), the latest nuclear-powered Virginia Class submarine produced at Newport News Shipbuilding

While Republicans have spent this Congress debating culture wars–they've remained silent on the real issues facing our education system.
Watch RM Scott call on Congress to prioritize legislation that addresses the issues that students *actually* face.⤵️
