The House just voted to lower health care costs and extend the ACA tax credits for 3 years! The Senate MUST VOTE NOW and prevent families from choosing to put food on the table and take care of their health.

Together, House Democrats just PASSED a bipartisan bill to extend health care cost savings for the American people. I was a strong YES because no person should have to give up their care just because the price went up.

I am deeply troubled and angered by the shooting of Renee Good by ICE in Minneapolis. My heart is with her family and loved ones as they mourn this unimaginable loss. The American people deserve answers.

Christina-Taylor. Gabe. John. Phyllis. Dorothy. Dorwan. I’ll always carry their memories with me as we work to build a future free from gun violence.

Fifteen years after surviving a devastating act of gun violence, my friend Gabby Giffords remains a leading voice for gun safety. Her leadership saves lives every day. Gabby, I'm grateful to stand with you in this fight.

House and Senate Democrats stand with the families of those brave members of law enforcement we lost on January 6th five years ago. We won’t let lies undermine their pain or the horror of that violence.

We remember 5 years since the terrifying January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol and honor the Capitol Police officers who continue to stand on the front lines to protect our democracy. We thank you for your courage, service, and sacrifice. Please join me in honoring the memory of those we've lost.

Nicolás Maduro has no legitimate democratic authority in Venezuela and has illegally taken power over the people there.

The Republican inaction on extending health care tax savings is already forcing people off their coverage. That’s why my colleagues and I signed on to force a vote on three more years of accessible care. Speaker Johnson just needs to schedule the vote. @ajc.com

A Look Back at the Year in Numbers

The Year in Pictures

Today, President Trump signed an executive order to reschedule marijuana, enabling researchers to study its medical benefits more effectively. This order should serve as a first step toward meaningful criminal justice reform for marijuana-related offenses like in my bill, the Clean Slate Act.

Tune in for the premiere of my 2025 Year in Review! youtu.be/S3M8U6EO3cE

My statement on H.R. 6703: I was not able to be present in Washington due to an urgent health matter with my husband, Curtis. We appreciate the well wishes from those near and far. If I had been able to vote remotely today, I would have voted NO.

The attack on Hanukkah celebrations on Bondi Beach is a painful reminder of the hatred and antisemitism that fuels violence. All those whose lives have been broken are in my heart. No person should ever live in fear of harm because of who they are or what they believe.

Today with @democrats-edworkforce.house.gov we had an important bipartisan hearing about standardizing our national degree and credential system to benefit America's students and our workforce. youtube.com/shorts/qS1VQ...

The rising costs of health care imposed by Republicans in Congress and the Trump Administration are putting undue burdens on the American people. I joined my @cbc.house.gov colleagues to share stories from Georgia. youtu.be/gXHj_BRo8Qc

No person should be forced to skip or ration medication because they can't afford it. We've capped insulin costs at $35 per month for our seniors—now let's extend those savings so more people can access the care they need. mcbath.house.gov/press-releas...

Without access to maternal care, women and their babies have worse health outcomes. ICE facilities around the nation are not meeting minimum standards for care. The @demwomencaucus.bsky.social is urging the Trump administration to end this mistreatment immediately. 19thnews.org/2025/11/demo...

Republicans talk about lowering college costs, but their actions tell a different story. Cutting Pell Grants and gutting disability support programs isn’t innovation. Families deserve real solutions—not broken promises. www.youtube.com/watch?v=yg8i...

BREAKING: Federal judge orders the Trump administration to fully fund SNAP benefits in November.

Two separate judges ruled that the Trump Administration must make a plan to continue funding SNAP, the program that helps feed kids and families.

The President and USDA have access to billions of dollars in contingency funds. They must use that funding to make sure Georgians don’t go hungry.

Head Start is facing threats once again, this time due to the government shutdown. I was pleased to return to the Chattahoochee Early Learning Center with the Atlanta YMCA to sound the alarm about these impacts. youtu.be/Q72zJng1Hn8

During Breast Cancer Awareness Month, I'm joining DWC to spread awareness about early detection & mammograms. Twice, I received the news that I had breast cancer. Twice, I was lucky to catch it. I am now a two-time survivor. Please speak with your doctor about your own risk & steps you can take.🩷

I'm grateful to advocates for joining the Democratic Women's Caucus at a roundtable about the stakes of this health care fight. Your stories hit home for all of us. We're stronger together.

Can you afford a massive premium spike? Let's look at the numbers for a minute. If Republicans don't work with us to fund the government with a bill that protects health care, Americans relying on the Affordable Care Act will see their costs for next year go through the roof.

House Democrats are united behind saving health care and hearing the stories of the American people.

Everyone should be able to see a doctor when they need one—and not have to skip rent payments to keep their insurance.

Republican leadership is still nowhere to be seen.

11Alive 🎥 Lucy McBath urges Speaker Mike Johnson to negotiate, warns families could lose affordable health care youtube.com/shorts/M_F3Z...

The American people were promised lower costs, and so far prices are sky-high as ever. Their health care payments are next. I spoke with 11Alive about what's at stake during these government funding discussions. www.11alive.com/article/news...

At the busiest airport in the country, TSA employees are some of the most impacted by the uncertainty of this government shutdown. I gathered with leaders at Hartsfield-Jackson Airport in Atlanta to hear directly from them. youtu.be/cC7k3sTw5WM

Millions of Americans will see their costs skyrocket if Republican leadership doesn't come to the table and work with Democrats to protect health care I joined Keep Americans Covered this morning to talk about the impacts this crisis will have on our community. youtube.com/shorts/19Pgs...

Attacks on federal funding are already putting a strain on food banks across America. With the threat of missed paychecks for thousands of federal workers in Atlanta looming due to the Republican government shutdown, food assistance for our community is at the top of my mind.

Tune in to hear from experts and hardworking Americans about the Republican healthcare crisis. My colleagues on the Committee are highlighting real-life stories from their constituents. www.youtube.com/watch?v=70dG...

Two years ago, the terror attacks by Hamas claimed the lives of innocent people and took hundreds as hostages—many of whom have yet to be returned to their families. The world mourns those murdered that day and in the days since.

Over the last few days, I've held meetings with health providers and the labor community in our district. Read more ⬇️

This government shutdown has real implications on our public spaces here in Georgia. Hear from the team at the Chattahoochee National Park Conservancy.

Government shutdowns are harmful and unnecessary. My office is still open and working for you. youtube.com/shorts/NnVmD...

After the House Republican majority failed to pass bipartisan funding legislation, the federal government has shut down as of 12:01am on October 1. I want to help our community receive information. Visit mcbath.house.gov/government-shutdown-information to learn more about what this means for you.

Hear @seiu.org health care workers outline the impacts of a Republican shutdown and potential increases in health premiums. Glad to have their voices with House Democrats at the U.S. Capitol today. youtube.com/shorts/A-zab...

 A new report from the nonpartisan Kaiser Family Foundation shows that health care premiums will more than double if Republicans allow the health care tax credits to expire. Shame.

House Democrats are here in Washington, ready to avoid a Republican shutdown with bipartisan funding that protects health care. House Republicans are nowhere to be seen.

I am horrified and saddened by the violent attack on a church in Michigan. The families of the victims and those injured are in my heart. I am grateful for the first responders who are on the scene. abcnews.go.com/US/multiple-...

I led my colleagues in introducing a resolution recognizing National Hazing Awareness Week. Hazing has claimed far too many lives, and no parent should have to bury their child.

As the Rosh Hashanah celebrations begin, I wish all a happy and sweet New Year filled with peace and joy. May the coming year bring blessings for you and your families. Shana Tovah.

House Democrats are fighting for bipartisan funding that protects families, keeps communities healthy, and ensures no one goes without the care they need. youtube.com/shorts/rgqXc...

Statement on H.Res.719

Kash Patel's tenure as Director of the FBI is an unmitigated disaster. The purpose of the FBI is not to serve a political circus. Americans are less safe under his watch. youtu.be/C72SJyOZt3o

Education is the key to opportunity. Our goal is to give all Americans, no matter their age, the chance to create the best possible lives for themselves and their families. I'm grateful to my colleagues for joining me in recognizing National Adult Education and Family Literacy Week.

Happy Hispanic Heritage Month! This month, we honor the contributions of our friends and neighbors in #GA06 to our nation’s history and culture. Our district is among the most diverse in Georgia, and I am proud to represent you in Congress.

On this 24th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, we hold in memory those who are no longer with us, honor the courage and resilience of their families, and give sincere gratitude to the first responders who saved countless lives that day.
