Vaccine skeptics should never be in charge of decisions that affect public health, especially those whose harmful ideologies put women and children's lives at risk.

The SAVE America Act isn’t about election integrity; it’s about creating new barriers to the ballot. That’s why I'm voting NO.

Not a penny more for DHS until ICE and CBP stop their reign of terror.

Today, I joined my Democratic colleagues outside ICE headquarters to call for the immediate removal of Kristi Noem. She must go. If the President refuses to act, Congress has a responsibility to begin impeachment proceedings.

ICE is out of control. I voted against the DHS funding bill that would allow ice to continue its terror unchecked.

ICE is out of control.

The House is scheduled to vote tomorrow on funding for the Department of Homeland Security, including ICE.

President Trump and his Administration have finally found a way to use CHILDREN to punish blue states and individuals pushing back. We will not bend the knee to this frankly appalling misuse of power.

My bipartisan legislation has made it through committee with a 42-0 yes vote and is now on to the floor! The BARCODE Efficiency Act, which I am proud to co-lead with my colleague Congressman Rudy Yakym, will help modernize outdated IRS operations and speed up tax return processing for Americans.

Kristi Noem has got to go.

Last night, despite the opposition of Republican leadership, Congress PASSED legislation that extend ACA tax credits for three years and ensure millions of Americans aren't priced out of health insurance.

Now it's on to the Senate.

A plaque is displayed outside my office that honors the brave men and women who defended our nation’s Capitol -- some who ultimately lost their lives.

Speaker Johnson continues to refuse to formally unveil or display this plaque.

Vaccines save lives. This is a political, short-sighted decision that will make children sick. Doctors and medical experts should inform our vaccine policies -- not the ill-informed whims of a long-time conspiracy theorist.

Nicolas Maduro is a bad guy who deserves to be brought to justice. But that doesn't mean President Trump has blanket authority to send the US military into a foreign land without authorization by Congress.

I had 45 seconds to give Republicans a piece of my mind today on their failure to save Americans from skyrocketing healthcare costs. No one should have to choose between health insurance and financial ruin - but that's the choice Republicans are shoving down more than 20 million Americans' throats.

I just left the House floor where I voted NO on Republicans' partisan attempt to make life harder and more expensive for working families. Healthcare costs are skyrocketing. Failing to address that is a dereliction of duty.

I am back in Washington to vote NO on Republicans hyper-partisan bill that will let ACA tax credits expire and subject millions of Americans to skyrocketing healthcare costs.
November 12, 2025 at 10:28 PM
Forty-eight days ago, I voted ‘No’ on giving President Trump unconstrained power to continue raising the cost of living for and ripping healthcare away from millions of hard-working Americans and their families. My position has not changed.
