It’s always a pleasure to catch up with our friends at ACLAMO and hear about their work providing educational and social services to the Norristown community. ACLAMO is one of the sites around the district where our office regularly holds office hours for constituents.

Republicans don’t bite the hand that feeds them: fighting fraud, waste, and abuse is not a priority when it comes from the shady corporations donating to their campaigns.

Using taxpayer dollars for cover-ups and pet projects is not just a bug, it's a feature in the Trump administration. More evidence of “fraud, waste, and abuse” by Kash Patel.

House Judiciary Dems (@HouseJudiciary) on X

Judiciary Democrats have uncovered that FBI Director Kash Patel directed over $1 MILLION in unlawful taxpayer-funded bonuses to a small group of MAGA agents and members of Patel’s personal security de...

Now the White House is letting these companies rewrite the rules so they can make even more money at the expense of people who overwhelmingly are not criminals. This is corporate corruption of our government - and we all pay the price.

ICE removed detainee protections after private outreach from top contractor

In new federal standards released Monday, the agency appeared to make changes that could benefit Geo Group’s legal defense.

Private prison contractors are being paid your tax dollars to run ICE detention camps that don't meet minimum standards for health, cleanliness, or basic human dignity.

So the White House knew all along that taxpayers would be stuck paying hundreds of million$ for Trump's ballroom. Where is the Republican outcry about waste, fraud, and abuse now?

Records reveal $600M estimate for Trump’s ballroom project, with half from taxpayers

An internal cost estimate in March by the project’s contractor ran $200 million more than Trump has said publicly and counters his claims that no taxpayer money will be spent.

Looking forward to celebrating the full history of our nation's 250-year experiment in democracy.

Trump has officially nominated his once-and-continuing personal criminal defense attorney Todd Blanche as Attorney General. Blanche has spent his time at DOJ proving there’s nothing he won’t do for Donald Trump.   Here’s why Blanche can’t be trusted in the job: 🧵

Trump can’t stop talking about his birthday party. But nothing about Americans paying $60M for it — while their costs skyrocket. But nothing to denounce the derogatory attack on Michelle Obama. The whole thing is disgusting.

Today marks 14 years of DACA, a program that has allowed thousands of young people to study, work, and build their lives in the only country they’ve called home. They deserve protections to ensure they can live without fear or uncertainty. #HomeIsHere

Praying for the swift recovery of our Philly officers, as well as the families of all involved.

Three Philadelphia police officers were wounded in a shooting late Saturday. The gunman was a retired firefighter, sources said.

Law enforcement sources identified the gunman as Eric Franks, 57, a retired firefighter, who was killed by officers in response.

Two years ago, I launched an effort to bring Members of Congress, both Democrats and Republicans, back to the place where it all began 250 years ago: Independence Hall in Philadelphia. I'm excited this historic ceremonial event will be taking place on July 2.

Here's what's going on in Congress this week.

70 billion for deportations, 1.8 billion for rioters and criminals, endless tax cuts for billionaires, yet somehow no money left for your earned benefits. And Trump's record inflation - which he says he loves - is undermining Social Security even more. Americans deserve better.

Social Security shortfall expected to accelerate, with funds at critical low in 2032

The shortfall will be driven in part by a drop in immigration and Trump’s tax cuts, trustees say, resulting in trimmed benefits.

I am proud to honor the service, sacrifice, and patriotism of our women in the armed forces.
