I recently joined students and educators, school board members, and state officials at the DCIU legislative breakfast to provide a DC update as our schools navigate disruptive policy changes and funding cuts by the Trump Administration.
Unconscionable. They're trying to rip SNAP benefits away from families struggling to afford groceries in order to provide the largest tax break in American history to billionaires. House Democrats are prepared to fight back for as long as it takes.
Medicaid cuts threaten access to care for ALL Americans. Cuts to Medicaid will push hospitals, nursing homes, and health clinics into bankruptcy. When those places close, it's going to be harder for everyone else to get health care.
Heartbroken to hear of the passing of my friend and colleague, Gerry Connolly. Gerry was a passionate public servant and a fierce advocate for good governance. My prayers are with his loved ones. May he rest in peace.
I was proud to mark Police Week in D.C. by standing in support of the heroic officers who defended our democracy on January 6. It's time for the House GOP to pay more than lip service to the brave officers who protect our Capitol and communities and actually honor them with action.
The #CongressionalFamilies Program is a bipartisan effort to increase understanding of cancer prevention and early detection. I was honored to join @preventcancer.org for their spring reception to honor the memories of those we've lost and recommit ourselves to prevention and detection efforts.
I appreciated meeting Delaware County's League of Women Voters to address questions and concerns about the first 100 days of this Trump administration, including threats to Medicaid and Social Security, the SAVE Act’s impact on eligible voters, and why the denial of due process is a threat to all.
In 100 days of full control of Washington, the GOP has done nothing to make life easier for the American people. Instead, Trump has gone to war against our rights and liberties in pursuit of unchecked power—and Congressional Republicans are aiding and abetting his power grab.
I enjoyed meeting with Philadelphia Job Corps, a free career training and education program for low-income individuals aged 16-24. Job Corps helps these impressive young people receive vocational training, hands-on training programs in culinary arts and healthcare, and high school diplomas.
It was a special Arbor Day in Philly, celebrating a community-led renovation of Mifflin Square Park!🌳 Green spaces are important in urban centers, providing relief from heat and congestion, and a safe space for children and families. I'm proud of the investments we've made to protect green spaces.
