A lot of nonsense has been going on in Washington lately, so I'm hosting a teletown hall next week with multiple national experts to talk to you about what is happening in DC right now, how it can affect you, and how I’m fighting back. I hope you will join me next Wednesday.
I am a lifelong educator. It is who I am, and I am proud of it. But abolishing the U.S. Department of Education is not just another executive order. This is something that will change the heart and fabric of America.
Year after year, the 5000 Role Models Police and Youth Conference has become a catalyst for dialogue in order to bridge the tension between our police and boys of color. And today’s event with our Miami Heat, Dedication 2 Community, and law enforcement was a success! #WeAre5000 👐🏾❤️🖤
All Americans deserve a seat at the table in shaping their transportation futures. That’s why I’m proud to introduce the ‘Transportation Equity Act’ to empower diverse stakeholders to collaborate on creating solutions that promote accessibility and equality!
This National Social Work Month, I want to express my deep appreciation for the dedicated social workers in South Florida and across the nation who empower our communities. Today and every day, we celebrate and thank them for their invaluable contributions.
My heart goes out to Congressman Raúl Grijalva’s family, district and staff as we mourn his passing. He was such a fighter, a progressive giant and a champion for justice. He never sought the spotlight or the cameras as he helped to change this nation for working people and for students.
Republicans control the House, Senate, and White House—yet they’d rather shut down the government to make harmful cuts than work with Democrats. We’re ready for a bipartisan deal, but they’re too focused on handing power over to Elon Musk.
The annual commemoration pays homage to those who fought to secure voting rights for Black Americans. 60 years later, the 5000 Role Models of Excellence honors the legacy of the 600 brave souls who march on that day, and we march on! #WeAre5000
Rev. Jesse Jackson, Martin Luther King III, Rev. Al Sharpton, Hakeem Jeffries, Maxine Waters, Nikema Williams, Jonathan Jackson, Terri Sewell, other congresspeople and the 5000 Role Models of Excellence marched across the Edmund Pettis Bridge to mark the 60th anniversary of Bloody Sunday.
I represent South Florida—where our community’s existence depends on clean water. As the top Democrat on the Water Resources and Environment Subcommittee, I will always stand up for our environment. We cannot let the Republicans jeopardize our clean water.
It’s about damn time we raise teacher pay. Our teachers deserve at least 60K—that’s why I’m leading the fight to raise their pay with the American Teacher Act. As a former teacher and principal, I know they work too hard not to earn a living wage. It’s time for change.
Elon Musk has made it CRYSTAL CLEAR that he wants to SLASH Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid. This unelected billionaire is the one Republicans have ceded all their power to in exchange for campaign donations. SHAME!
Elon Musk has made clear that he wants to cut Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid. The House Republican partisan funding bill utterly fails to protect these vital benefits. That's why Democrats are united to stop it.
Republicans want to take a chainsaw towards Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, and SNAP. They rather would risk a government shutdown to hurt working families than to work with Democrats. Absolute shame!
Today’s partisan budget gives the Administration and Elon Musk a blank check to slash to health care programs, cut public school funding, gut affordable housing, and more. I voted ‘no’ today because I won’t be part of Republicans’ slash and burn effort.
The Republicans worked so hard to gain control of the House, the Senate, and the White House. Now, with all this power, in today’s partisan funding bill, Congressional Republicans handed it over to an unelected billionaire who cares only about himself, not the American people.
