Trump's Administration could release the full SNAP funding currently available right now. Yet, he has fought it every step of the way. Hungry children should not be penalized as we keep working to reopen the government.

It's a very simple compromise: Protect existing health care credits, end the shutdown.
We must take action on rising costs for families who are shopping for their health care right now, and we can end this shutdown.

I am proposing a very simple deal to reopen the government:
- Include a one-year clean extension of the current health care tax credits to immediately address Americans’ rising costs.
- Create a bipartisan committee that will continue negotiations on reforms ahead of next year’s enrollment period

Wishing Speaker Emerita Pelosi all the best in her retirement. Americans may never know what your leadership has meant to our democracy. I am grateful to have seen it firsthand as we got things done, from protecting consumers after the ‘08 crash to expanding access to health care. Thank you.

Here’s the reality people are facing with health care plans.
Thanks to Republican’s inaction, monthly bills are going through the roof. That’s why it is critical that we do not cut critical health care credits and exacerbate the rising health care costs caused by Republican’s Big Ugly Bill.

I was at Lighthouse in Pontiac today seeing the local impact of the current lapse in SNAP benefits.
Especially when higher prices are already making it harder for folks to put food on the table, the Trump Administration must release all of the available funding for SNAP.

We need to ensure a seamless transition between Selfridge’s retiring A-10s and the incoming F-15EX fighter jets. As a member of the Armed Services Committee, I’m fighting to help minimize this gap, which would threaten our national security and undermine our fighter fleet.
