⚡️Tampa Bay's Congresswoman⚡🌴🌤🌅 🇺🇸 People Over Politics! 🇺🇸 former Chair of the Select Committee on the Climate Crisis 🇺🇸 #FL14
It’s sickening to see ICE harass and kill another person today.

Trump must immediately end the siege, and allow local law enforcement to keep the city safe.

These investments will lower the cost of living, boost opportunities through skills training, create jobs, support Veterans, and address housing affordability.

I’m grateful to my Democratic colleagues for standing strong to reject extreme cuts pushed by MAGA Republicans.
I voted yes to pass 3 funding bills that will help address higher energy costs and build stronger and safer communities.

A significant number of Tampa Bay area community priority projects I championed are funded to support housing, transit, schools and neighborhoods across the Bay area.

President Trump's shredding of long-term friendships and alliances is fiscally harmful and dangerous.

Americans want to afford the roof over their head and the food on their table. If President Trump really believed in 'America First' he would listen to our neighbors.

You deserve better.

As Dr. King said, “you don’t have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step.”

Join me as we honor the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and his work to achieve equality and justice for all.

Our economy, our democracy and the stability of our country depend on the health of our neighbors.

Americans will not forget the handouts given to billionaires while you pay the price.
This is nothing short of a crisis caused by Congressional Republicans and President Trump.

Floridians are facing the brunt of the pain due to their failure to extend the cost-saving Affordable Care Act Tax Credits.
Florida leads the nation in the drop in Obamacare enrollment
ACA enrollment fell in 2026 as extended tax credits approved during the COVID-19 pandemic expired. Florida experienced the largest fall-off in the county, with more than a quarter of a million fewer p...

Over 1,000 of my neighbors think Congress should prioritize lowering costs.

The American Dream is only accessible if you can afford to participate in it. Billionaires should not be cashing in at our families expense.
January 16, 2026 at 3:10 PM
Corruption in the open does not mitigate its odious nature.
 
American taxpayers deserve so much better than what President Trump and FCC Chairman Brendan Carr are giving them.
January 14, 2026 at 7:35 PM
It is no surprise that Americans are upset with the Trump Administration.

From higher costs, to militarizing our cities and slashing health care and nutrition assistance to pay for tax breaks for billionaires - the American Dream is being squashed by a man who pretends to put America first.
January 14, 2026 at 3:19 PM
New year, same BS from Congressional Republicans and President Trump.

Your wallet deserves better and I will continue to advocate for legislation that saves your hard earned money.
January 13, 2026 at 4:03 PM
*Drumroll please*

The numbers are in and despite Trump's promise to bring down prices for families, Americans are worse off than before.

Utility bills are up, rent is up, grocery costs are up, health insurance costs are up - all while billionaires cash in and working families pay the price.

My statement on the murder of Renee Good:
January 9, 2026 at 5:34 PM
House Democrats successfully forced a vote and were joined by 17 Republicans to pass a three-year extension of the cost-saving health care tax credits.

The Senate should immediately pass this legislation so our neighbors have greater access to more affordable health care coverage.

UPDATE: Health Care Costs
January 8, 2026 at 11:15 PM
Congratulations on finally acting on what the American people want. This surely fixes the high cost of housing, groceries and health care 🫶
Everyone join me in giving House Republicans a big round of applause!
 
Their first bill in 2026 is to address shower heads because President Trump doesn't like the way his hair looks.

Congress needs to extend the health care tax credits and we need to do it now.

Maybe if President Trump stopped hanging out with billionaires, he'd see the real harm American families wallets are facing.
President Trump thinks affordability is a "hoax", but for Floridians, paying their electric bills is a nightmare.

President Trump cancelled 9 years worth of cost-saving tax credits for Floridians to install solar to their homes and businesses.
On the last days for solar tax credits, a Tampa crew works down to the wire
A prominent local official was among the last to squeak their rooftop project through by the deadline.

President Trump and RFK Jr. are not medical experts.

Their dangerous decision to take a sledgehammer to the childhood vaccine schedule during a deadly flu season will severely harm our neighbors.

I demand the science-based childhood immunization schedule be reinstated immediately.
