I was saddened to hear of the passing of the Honorable William T. Newman, Jr.
Not only was Bill a great attorney, he also was the first African American to be elected to the Arlington County Board since Reconstruction.

I hosted a reception this afternoon for the students who participated in my ditrict’s Congressional App Challenge. I am always impressed by young people’s ability to solve complex problems by using technology.

The recent winter surge underscored what students and educators know: school buildings are crumbling and lack reliable Wi-Fi.
That’s why @bobbyscott.house.gov & @norcross.house.gov introduced the Rebuild America’s Schools Act to invest in safe facilities, modern infrastructure and broadband.

As we celebrate our progress this Black History Month, we continue the fight against the Trump Administration’s attacks on civil rights and voting rights and its retelling of history.
During Black History Month, we recognize the contributions and accomplishments of Black Americans. We honor those who fought to advance civil rights and liberties for all Americans.
