The people of Israel and the people of Gaza have all endured unimaginable suffering.
The hostages must be released, and aid must flow freely into Gaza to bring relief to Palestinian civilians. (2/2)
It’s encouraging to see signs that this horrific war may finally be nearing its end. But I will celebrate only when every family is reunited. (1/2)
While Republicans are on vacation, six million mothers and young children who rely on WIC are at risk of going hungry.
I’m ready to support a bipartisan budget that protects these families — I just wish my Republican colleagues were, too.
Today marks eight days since the government shut down.
Extreme Washington Republicans got us into this mess but apparently have no intention of fixing it.
House GOP & Senate GOP, it's time to do your job.
There is no such thing as a “clean CR” when this Administration has made clear that they put their own partisan politics over the people they serve. (5/5)
❌ There’s nothing “clean” about a bill that allows President Trump to withhold funds for pediatric cancer research. (4/5)
❌ There is nothing “clean” about a bill that takes meals away from students. (3/5)
❌ There is nothing “clean” about a bill that strips billions from Medicaid and Medicare. (2/5)
The Republicans’ “clean” bill to reopen the government is anything but. (1/5)
During last night's town hall, I shared the story of a Virginian who said not knowing if her next paycheck will arrive leaves her "paralyzed" with worry.
All because the House GOP & Senate GOP won't work with Democrats to reopen the government.
The partisan games must stop.
Yesterday, I met with Sheriff Decatur at the Stafford County Sheriff's Office.
We had a great discussion on how we can strengthen public safety, build stronger community partnerships, and bring more federal resources to support local law enforcement.
More than 6,500 Virginians tuned into my telephone town hall last night!
We covered everything from the hardships facing federal workers to what I’m doing on Capitol Hill to reopen the government and support those impacted across VA-07.
Thank you to everyone who joined the conversation.
The Trump admin is weaponizing this shutdown to illegally fire thousands of federal workers.
That is absolutely unacceptable.
I’m backing @repjohnnyo.bsky.social ‘s bill to protect federal workers.
Hardworking Americans are not political pawns.
Lawyer and representative for tens of tens of thousands of federal employees here.
Speaker Johnson — federal employees are entitled to back pay when the government shuts down.
Hope this saves you a Google search.
Two years ago, Hamas executed a horrific massacre in Israel.
On this solemn anniversary, we remember the innocent lives lost and renew our commitment to ensuring every remaining hostage is reunited with their families.
It is their grief that must guide our pursuit of lasting peace in the region.
Hispanic Heritage Month is a time to celebrate the influence of Hispanic Americans on our nation's achievements, culture, and history. Their contributions are central to the strength of our communities and the story of our country.
House Republicans may still be on vacation, but my office is OPEN and working hard to reopen the government for the Virginians I represent.
As we enter week two of the government shutdown, my message hasn’t changed. I’m ready to support a budget — but only when it protects Virginians’ healthcare, invests in our public schools, and lowers costs for hardworking families.
Speaker Johnson cancelled votes instead of working to end this shutdown.
The House GOP has been on vacation since September 19.
I remain ready to vote for a budget to reopen the government — so long as it doesn’t sell out the Virginians I represent.
