I demanded the reversal of $2 Billion cuts to SAMHSA alongside nearly 100 other Members of Congress. Congress funded these lifesaving mental health and substance abuse prevention grants because they work! The Trump administration shouldn't have tried to cut them in the first place.

H.H.S. Reverses Decision to Cut $2 Billion for Mental Health and Addiction Services

This administration is creating chaos and trying to intimidate Americans who exercise their First Amendment rights to object to that chaos

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govJan 15(source)

The President is throwing gasoline on the fire that his ICE agents ignited. Invoking the Insurrection Act and putting troops in Minneapolis would be a dangerous and unwarranted escalation.

Using your First Amendment rights to speak out against this administration is not domestic terrorism.

ICE isn't going after "the worst of the worst." Here's who they're really going after:

Every time the Republican majority has the chance to put the American people first, they decide to cover up and prioritize the interests of big business and billionaires.

I've fought for these mental health and substance abuse programs because they have proven to make our communities safer. Why would you cut them?

BREAKING: The Trump administration has canceled over 2,000 grants related to substance abuse and mental health services, totaling upwards of $2 billion.

Standing up and speaking out against this administration isn't domestic terrorism. It's exercising your rights protected by the First Amendment. My Republican colleagues voted against protecting your fundamental freedom of speech TWICE.

358 days in, whatever happened to "lowering prices on Day 1?" www.axios.com/2026/01/13/i...

Grocery prices see biggest spike since 2022 in December

The jump in costs highlights the challenge for the White House in the lead-up to midterm elections.

The appropriations process is Congress' last meaningful check on this lawless administration's abuses of power.

From the law's standpoint, the DOJ has missed the deadline. Release the Epstein files.

Q: The DOJ has yet to release all the Epstein files. Are you pressing for their release? COMER: From my standpoint, the DOJ is cooperating. President Trump is answering your questions about Epstein. Who we haven't heard from is Bill Clinton.

The Senate needs to pass the 3-year extension of the ACA tax credits ASAP! People's lives are on the line. Punting the vote to the end of the month is unacceptable.

Happy Korean American Day! Today, we honor the contributions, history, & culture of our Korean American community.

Congress should be passing bills to repeal the Trump tariffs and make life more affordable for American families, not ones that actively sell out American workers to line the pockets of executives.

They took away your healthcare to give billionaires a tax cut. They took away your SNAP benefits to give billionaires a tax cut. Now, they're taking away your clean air so billionaires can make even more profit.

Under President Trump, the EPA will stop considering lives saved when setting pollution limits and instead calculate only the cost to businesses. It’s counter to the agency’s mission statement, which says has a core responsibility to protect human health and the environment. nyti.ms/3Loch27

I stand with the brave Iranians protesting to demand a brighter future in the face of their government’s brutality. The Iranian people deserve to make their voices heard without fear of violence, and the world is watching.

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govJan 11(source)

The federal government’s recklessness has spread fear across America, but the power of the people is still more than that of the people in power.

At the Delco Indivisible Vigil for Peace, I joined members of our community to condemn the lawless ICE operations across our country, including the tragic killing of Renee Good.
