Loved stopping by Hilltop, Columbia Heights, and Brooklyn Center last night!

Proud to be a cosponsor of the PACT Act in the House. This legislation will ensure veterans who suffered from toxic exposure have access to the benefits and healthcare they deserve. The Senate must pass this bill.

Shireen Abu Akleh should be alive. Proud to join her family and my colleagues in the call for an independent U.S. investigation into her murder. We must keep speaking out until we get justice and accountability. #JusticeforShireen

Let me be clear: Clarence Thomas is a corrupt jurist and should have no place on the highest court. He must be impeached.

In the year 2022: 195 House Republicans voted AGAINST protecting access to contraception. 157 House Republicans voted AGAINST codifying marriage equality. The GOP wants to take us backwards.

The House Judiciary Committee advanced a bill to ban assault weapons this week. This is an important step to get weapons of war out of our communities. Now, let’s get this bill to the House floor and save lives.

Today, @SenTinaSmith and I are reintroducing the No Shame at School Act to prohibit school lunch shaming.    Families should never be chased down by debt collectors because they cannot afford their children’s school lunches.   It’s time to end this practice once and for all.

The Right to Contraception Act just passed the House! This bill will protect the right to birth control nationwide by enshrining this right into federal law.

Climate change is a public health emergency. Action cannot wait any longer. It’s past time to enact a Green New Deal. https://t.co/HRoHL0KlGi

One of the best parts about being a Member of Congress is seeing the community project funding you secured transform our community. Our office secured $500K for Sabathani Community Center to build a solar rooftop that can operate even in a natural disaster. The future is solar!

Honored to preside over the House floor today. Grateful to represent the 5th District in Congress every day!

Our country is in the midst of a legitimacy crisis, with the Supreme Court at the heart of it. But we cannot just limit our efforts to the high court alone. We need a BOLD democratic reform agenda that tackles the threats to our democracy. https://t.co/aBmM4YFenw

From @IlhanMN Some 13 million children already faced hunger in our country before the pandemic. 3 out of every 4 teachers say they see students regularly come to school hungry, and a majority of them regularly buy food for students out of their own pockets https://t.co/JwiWoY3Xap
