Today’s Supreme Court ruling confirmed what I’ve said from the start: Trump does not have the power to impose massive import taxes without Congress’ approval. Enough with the childish antics. It’s time to focus on lowering costs for the American people. youtu.be/UGG2qP9tgFQ

American families are struggling to afford everyday bills. Meanwhile, the Trump family’s crypto company made $500 million from an investment firm linked to the UAE government, just before the administration approved sending them advanced AI chips.

In celebration of #BlackHistoryMonth, I was honored to receive the William C. Thompson, Sr. Award from the NY State Supreme Court Appellate Division, 2nd Dept. I’m grateful to be recognized w/ an award named after a trailblazer I admired & will continue the fight in his spirit.

As we continue to celebrate the Lunar New Year, let us welcome energy, freedom, and forward momentum during the #YearOfTheHorse. May this year bring you joy and prosperity!

Republicans shut down DHS by refusing a bipartisan deal to control ICE. They would rather halt FEMA's disaster response, increase travel delays at airports, and disrupt Coast Guard missions instead of protecting Americans from ICE's violence. youtu.be/7hxC-gmRWz0

Ramadan Mubarak to all who celebrate within #NY05 and across the world. May this holy month of reflection and service bring peace and strength to our communities.

I'm saddened by the loss of my dear friend and mentor, Rev. Jesse Jackson. His leadership inspired generations and guided my political career. He’ll be remembered for his dedication to human rights, economic justice and for challenging us all to rise to the occasion and to always “Keep Hope Alive.”

Our demands are simple: DHS funding shouldn't be used by ICE to terrorize or kill Americans. This isn’t an authoritarian regime. This is America. Unmask them. youtu.be/_w6lPoM36OM

Trump's bigotry isn’t new. They can take it down, but we all saw it. www.cnn.com/2026/02/06/p...

Congress should be asking the question: who is Trump really working for? My Republican colleagues have forgotten we are a coequal branch and can demand accountability from the President. www.youtube.com/watch?v=2WV8...

#OTD 28 years ago, I swore an oath to uphold the constitution and represent the people of #NY05 in Congress. Today, the promise I made to my country and constituents is stronger than ever as we continue to fight for justice, demand accountability, and defend democracy.

Bessent can’t answer questions, so I’ll show him how it's done. Q: Why can't the person handling our govt's finances make a commitment to prevent conflicts of interest, foreign influence, & potential corruption from POTUS’ own family biz ventures? A: Because he's Trump's flunky.

Today my office honored Aaron Stuckey, for his 35 years of service to the United States Postal Service. Aaron has done a wonderful job making sure the office receives your letters. I wish him all the best on this next chapter and thank him for his service.

I stand united with Rep. Grace Meng and faith leaders from our communities to denounce the deadly consequences of ICE’s lawlessness. We won’t turn a blind eye. #ImpeachNoem

Senate Republicans must work with Democrats to rewrite the DHS funding bill and enact common-sense reforms to stop the agency’s lawless conduct. Democrats are fighting to protect Americans lives. www.youtube.com/watch?v=NbNs...

On #InternationalHolocaustRemembranceDay, we honor the six million Jews and millions of others murdered in the Holocaust by the Nazi regime. We remember not only the unimaginable loss, but the warning history leaves us. We must stand against antisemitism and dehumanization.

Kristi Noem must go. I've signed onto a resolution to impeach her. DHS and ICE violence is out of control and Americans have died on her watch. She must resign or be impeached NOW. youtu.be/lwMW_JKLZI0

My office has been in touch with Sanitation about streets that haven’t been plowed since yesterday. Crews are actively working to clear them. ❄️🚜 Please stay safe! #NY05 plownyc.cityofnewyork.us/plownyc/

Alex Pretti should be alive. I voted NO on DHS funding last week because ICE will not get a blank check to terrorize our neighborhoods. Senate Democrats are right to block funding for DHS until ICE is reined in and held accountable. youtu.be/Et0NACrREqA

Snow still on your block? ❄️ Find out if your street has been plowed: plownyc.cityofnewyork.us/plownyc/

In Trump’s America, even a 5-year-old can be used as bait and taken into custody. This administration has given ICE a blank check to terrorize families and children. It’s a disgrace. www.cnn.com/2026/01/22/u...

For nearly 50 years, Roe v. Wade affirmed a woman’s fundamental right to control her own body. Republicans have reversed that progress by closing clinics, criminalizing care, and endangering lives. Democrats will never stop fighting to restore Roe protections and defend reproductive freedom.

Today, we honor the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., a champion of civil rights who showed that love and nonviolence are stronger than hate. Let’s continue his vision by fighting for justice, unity, and equality.

I’m deeply saddened by the passing of Claudette Colvin, whose courageous stand at just 15 helped spark a movement that would change history. Her life reminds us that courage does not require permission or recognition to matter, and I extend my deepest condolences to her loved ones.

ACA enrollment is down nationally. That’s hundreds of thousands of Americans avoiding the doctor, stretching prescriptions, or not enrolling due to surging premium costs. This was completely avoidable. apnews.com/article/affo...

Today, I voted for over $4 million in community project funding that benefits Queens. #NY05 meeks.house.gov/media/press-...

RM @meeks.house.gov: Met with Danish Amb. Jesper Møller Sørensen and the Greenland Representative Jacob Isbosethsen to express my unwavering support for Denmark and Greenland.

🚨We forced a vote and it passed! House Democrats voted to restore the Affordable Care Act tax credits that Republicans ended on January 1. The Senate must follow our lead and vote now to lower premiums for millions of Americans. thehill.com/homenews/hou...

Congressman Hoyer’s leadership shaped Congress for over four decades with landmark legislation from the American Rescue Plan and the Help America Vote Act to his support for Ukraine. I’m grateful to call Steny a colleague and friend, and wishing him and his family the best.

There is a healthcare & affordability crisis in the US. Instead of tackling that, Trump & Republicans are focused on Venezuelan oil & empire building in Latin America. I asked Rubio & Hegseth TWICE this week how much this will cost American taxpayers. They wouldn't answer.

Today’s fatal shooting in Minneapolis is senseless and must be criminally investigated. Masked ICE agents are causing chaos across the country, including in NYC. I’m sending my deepest condolences to the victim's family for their tragic loss. youtu.be/Aog_I7fMII0

Happy New Year! Today we celebrate new beginnings and the promise of the year ahead. Wishing you health, happiness and prosperity in 2026. #NY05 🗽🎆

As we honor the principles of Kwanzaa, let us reflect on the strength of family, community, and shared values that guide us forward. Happy Kwanzaa to those who celebrate in #NY05

Merry Christmas #NY05! May the holiday season bring you and your family joy and prosperity🗽

Trump’s primetime speech was full of lies. Working Americans feel the affordability crisis every day in their wallets. The American people are tired of being fed empty promises, they want real solutions. youtu.be/H97M2azPavE

Trump is more concerned with putting his name on buildings than helping working Americans. People want affordable health care and lower costs. Not an ego trip. www.cnbc.com/2025/12/18/t...

I’m demanding the House vote now to extend ACA tax credits before the December 31 deadline. Congress shouldn’t leave for the holidays without stopping health care costs from skyrocketing! youtu.be/Fy7xTXgSa8M

Speaker Johnson must bring this bill to the floor NOW, there’s no time to waste.

My colleagues and I had the pleasure of touring JFK Millenium Partners (JMP) Terminal 6. This meaningful site visit showed us what to expect in 2026 @JFKairport - a world-class travel experience for visitors and the community alike.

Trump dismissing the affordability crisis as a ‘hoax’ proves he has no clue what American families are dealing with. Democrats are the only ones serious about making life affordable for working people. youtu.be/GSBntX0QsUg

Happy Hanukkah to everyone celebrating in #NY05 and around the world. May these next eight days be filled with joy and blessings.

My heart is with the victims and families affected by the senseless shooting at Brown University. I am keeping the entire community in my prayers during this difficult time. www.npr.org/2025/12/13/n...

The House passed my bipartisan bill, the Invest Act. It boosts our markets, opens doors for small businesses and gives millions of Americans a stronger path to grow their retirement savings and secure their financial future. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lvgt...

Making Trump’s birthday a free-entry day at national parks while eliminating MLK Day and Juneteenth is foul. Our parks should reflect our shared history, NOT cater to Trump’s ego. Families are struggling to get by - that’s where his focus should be.

My office is aware of yesterday’s reports about ICE activity at Peninsula Preparatory Academy on the Rockaway Peninsula. We can confirm that no individuals were detained during the raid. I understand how unsettling this is for our community. (1/2)

A grand jury dismissed Trump’s sham indictment against AG Letitia James. Trump wants to weaponize the government against those who hold him accountable. AG James has always led with integrity, and this ruling reflects that. apnews.com/article/leti...

Every day, the Trump Administration seems to find a new way to make life harder and unaffordable for working Americans. In March, HUD eliminated Special Purpose Credit Programs that help underserved communities with down-payment and closing-cost assistance for homeownership. youtu.be/dXBiq51-9Ow
