Today, the Justice Department is due to release the hundreds of thousands of Epstein files they’ve been withholding — and they should move to do that swiftly, and release them in full — no redactions. It’s time to find out: what Donald Trump is afraid of? What is he hiding?

Today is the deadline to release the Epstein files. The DOJ is refusing to comply. This is about justice for survivors and holding participants and co-conspirators accountable. The Epstein Files Act is the law, not a suggestion. Release the files. Immediately.

In the face of the horrific shooting at Brown University, people came together. I would like to take a moment to express my gratitude to law enforcement, firefighters, EMTs, healthcare workers, and all who acted with courage and compassion when it mattered most.

Today is the deadline for Trump’s DOJ to release ALL of the Epstein files and comply with federal law. The law is clear. The Trump Administration had 30 days to release them. Now, they are saying they won’t meet that deadline.

They don’t believe they have a future because they are watching and listening to politicians who do not care if they survive. This bill isn’t about keeping kids safe. It’s about criminalizing parents and doctors who are just trying to get their kids the lifesaving care they need.

I wonder how many trans people or parents of trans kids my Republican colleagues actually know. I spend time speaking to LGBTQ+ students and they ask me if I know any trans people my age because they don’t believe they will make it to 40.

Trump’s proposed offshore drilling plans would irreparably harm our tourism economy, coastal ecology, and our community. My constituents don’t want oil rigs on their beaches, and I’m doing everything I can to stop that from happening.

Despite bipartisan support for a vote on @housedemocrats.bsky.social’ bill to extend the health care tax credits for 20 million Americans, Republican leadership refused to hold a vote before premiums spike on January 1st. Shame on them.

Internal documents have come out that show the Trump Admin VA is working to cut around 35,000 jobs across the country. This includes cutting clinical healthcare jobs like doctors and nurses. This is going to hurt veterans' care and drive up wait times. I'm fighting back.

It’s almost time for Christmas!  Kwasi and I got into the holiday spirit by tackling some of the world’s most controversial Christmas topics – white lights or colored lights, Frosty or Rudolph, and more 🎄

22 million Americans want one thing— they want Congress to vote to extend the healthcare subsidies.

These tragic murders shock the conscious, and my heart and prayers are with the family, friends, and loved ones of the people who were murdered in these horrific and unacceptable acts of gun violence.

Grocery bills keep going up while local food disappears from store shelves. That’s backwards. I introduced the bipartisan Cutting COSTS Act to bring down grocery bills for working families — and help small farms get their produce into grocery stores. It’s common sense.

I'm deeply concerned about how Republican cuts to Medicaid are going to impact families in NH. This fight is about how we support Granite Staters with disabilities, ensure they can live with a level of independence, and provide them with the skills and opportunities they need.

A recent Guardian report EXPOSED dollar stores for quietly overcharging customers. Lowering costs is my top priority – which is why I just sent a Congressional oversight letter to hold them accountable and demand better for working people.

Thank you to the Rhode Island Hospital medical professionals whose steadiness and compassionate care made a difference for students wounded in the tragic Brown shooting. Rhode Island is grateful for your service.

The DOJ is required to release the Epstein files today. But given their total disregard for the rule of law, they cannot be trusted. House Oversight Dems must be determined and diligent. The survivors—and the American people—deserve no less.

If Congress doesn’t act, healthcare premiums will spike by 114% on January 1. GOP leadership is choosing delay over care, and higher costs over families. The votes are there, the solution is ready — the Speaker must stop stalling and allow a vote now.

A bipartisan majority in the House is ready to vote on a clean, 3-year extension of Affordable Care Act tax credits — relief more than 1 million Marylanders rely on to afford health care. Instead, Speaker Johnson canceled ALL legislative business tomorrow to block that vote.

Americans are losing jobs, unemployment is the highest it's been since COVID, tariffs are shuttering small businesses, and every day costs are only continuing to rise. Families in Queens cannot afford to lose any more in this economy.

But instead of stepping in to help people keep the heat on, the Trump Administration is gutting funding that helps families afford energy bills and cutting renewable energy projects that deliver clean, cheap energy.

Heating costs are 10% more expensive this winter, squeezing American families who are already stretched thin.

This should fix the economy. www.nbcwashington.com/entertainmen...

They cut funding that goes to save the lives of CHILDREN.

Instead of taking action, my Republican colleagues are adding financial uncertainty and chaos to the lives of the American people at a time when they simply cannot afford it.

We are days away from the expiration of the ACA tax credits, and Washington Republicans still have no plan to stop this looming disaster.

A big update on health care. We have forced a vote in the House on extending the Affordable Health Care tax credits:

We're one step closer to getting this across the finish line – it just passed committee! My bill is bipartisan, increases housing supply, and lowers costs – should be a no brainer for Speaker Johnson to put on the Floor for a vote.

If House Republicans want to “protect the innocence of children,” they should ban assault weapons — not healthcare. Instead, they’re using the power of the federal government to bully trans kids in bathrooms, schools, and now doctors’ offices.

The House discharge petition now has the necessary 218 signatures to demand a vote on the floor. Here’s a breakdown of what’s happening. @houserepublicans.bsky.social need to bring this bill to the floor today. Now.

Nearly 400k Virginians rely on the ACA, and most need tax credits to afford it. But Republicans are ending those credits on 12/31. If they let that happen, coverage could cost 30-50% more, and over 100k Virginians could lose insurance overnight. It’s time to act. Let’s vote on the clean extension.

Big news in the House today! Republicans have joined Democrats' plan to extend ACA tax credits for the next three years. The best gift Speaker Johnson can give families this holiday season is to bring this bill to a vote—so Americans can enter the new year knowing they can afford their health care.

Unbelievable. Communities across Washington state are literally under water while Trump’s OMB Director dismantles the largest federal climate research center responsible for delivering life-saving data and research on wildfires and floods.

Our veterans shouldn’t have to fight for health care at home. Yet 267,000 veterans and their families could lose health care this month if ACA tax credits expire, and Washington Republicans are refusing to even vote on extending them.

3/3 As the only meteorologist in Congress, I will lead the charge against this radical anti-science agenda which puts the lives of my neighbors and our national security at great risk. www.nbcnews.com/science/clim...

2/2 But now the administration’s attack on science may put this in jeopardy, sending these important researchers to other countries. This is not how we put America first. Instead, it puts us dead last as we fail to develop strategies and policy to combat man-made climate change.

1/2 The National Center for Atmospheric Research in Colorado is one of the most important organizations for the understanding of atmospheric science in the world. In my previous career, I’ve worked at NCAR to learn from some of the most brilliant minds in Meteorology.

Secretary Collins just announced plans to slash up to 35,000 health care positions from VA – including doctors and nurses. This is a complete betrayal of the heroes who served our nation.

The discharge petition to force a vote on extending ACA tax credits has received the necessary 218 signatures. We are demanding an immediate vote in the House to extend these tax credits before December 31. Congress should not leave for the holidays without stopping premiums from skyrocketing.

I was a kid once. And my biggest regret in life is that I never got a childhood without pain. Politicians should never insert themselves into the personal health care decisions of patients, parents, and their providers—and that includes trans Americans.

@housedemocrats.bsky.social’ discharge petition will extend the tax credits that help Americans afford insurance, which are set to expire at the end of the year. Speaker Johnson, bring the bill to the floor IMMEDIATELY, & we can stop premiums from doubling AND strengthen our public health system.

Health care is a biosecurity issue: if Americans don’t have access to health insurance, they are at greater risk of getting sick or dying from infectious diseases.

For someone who’s “winning” so much, why is Trump so mad?

With unemployment at its highest since 2021 & rising inflation, Americans are increasingly concerned about record corruption under the Trump Admin. During @naturalresources.bsky.social, I raised these concerns & stressed the need to stop pay-to-play schemes and hold the Administration accountable.

On point.

214 House Democrats — and 4 House Republicans — have now signed the discharge petition to force a vote on extending the ACA tax credits for working families. Speaker Johnson must call the vote. Not next year. Not next month. TODAY.

Our bipartisan bill to save healthcare for millions of Americans now has the support of 218 Members of Congress, but the Speaker of the House refuses to allow a vote. The American people deserve on our bipartisan bill. Enough grandstanding, Mr. Speaker. Let’s get this done.

Common-sense gun safety reform in our country is long overdue. These bills will prevent guns from falling into the hands of criminals and bad actors while respecting the rights of responsible gun owners. I’ll continue fighting to pass them. pappas.house.gov/media/press-...

We have the votes to extend the ACA tax credits NOW. But House Republicans chose to let health care premiums skyrocket for 22 million Americans in less than two weeks — and go home early. We should be voting immediately to help people afford their health care.

Trump’s economic approval rating is lower than it’s ever been, and the reasons couldn't be clearer. Families across the country are struggling to keep up with skyrocketing electric bills, climbing health care costs, and groceries that just keep getting more expensive.
