Trump said we don't have the funding to make child care or health care affordable. Yet under his marching orders, the House GOP wants to hand $70 BILLION to lawless ICE and Border Patrol — WITHOUT significant reforms! That's on top of the $140 BILLION they gave these agencies last year.

Gas prices are the highest they've been in 4 years because of Trump's decision to attack Iran and his inability to get out of this war.

As Justice Kagan writes in her dissent, today’s Supreme Court decision doesn’t “update” the Voting Rights Act — it guts it. (1/2)

As Brad Woodhouse, president of @protectourcare.org, said at yesterday's @waysmeanscmte.bsky.social hearing: “People are not just facing an affordability crisis in health care… Let's talk about the cuts that were made in HR 1 to SNAP and that were made to food assistance.”

No, Secretary Rollins. It’s not “better” for the economy that 4.3 million Americans, including 45,000 Philadelphians, will struggle to put food on the table without these critical benefits - just to pay for tax cuts for the richest in Trump's Reverse Robin Hood law.

On Day 60 of Trump’s war of choice, gas prices in Philly are only continuing to rise. Philadelphians want a lower cost of living, not another disastrous forever war!

In Philly and across the country, our schools are in disrepair— putting the health and safety of students and educators at risk and jeopardizing learning. (1/2)

Renaming ICE won’t do anything to protect Americans from being brutalized by masked ICE agents. Let’s get serious about reforms: - Get rid of the masks - Require agents to display IDs and wear body cameras - Require judicial warrants to enter private property

One major reason late-night votes are becoming more frequent: the Republicans who control Congress don’t want the public to know what they’re doing!

This week I visited the Dr. Ala Stanford Center for Health Equity as they broke ground on a new imaging center in North Philly! As we see continued attacks on our health care system at the national level, centers like this are doing critical work on the ground to keep our community healthy.

While you were sleeping, Senate Republicans voted to give another $70 BILLION to already-funded ICE and Border Patrol — the 2 agencies terrorizing our communities under the Trump-Vance administration's lawless immigration enforcement. I’m a hell NO when this arrives on the House floor.

It’s Day 55 of Trump’s war. And Pennsylvania drivers have spent over $460,019,337 MORE on gas thanks to this optional war.

You are paying over 35% MORE every time you're at the pump because of President Trump’s optional war. What’s the response from one of Trump’s top donors? “Try to drive less.”

House Republicans have introduced more legislation this Congress to honor Donald Trump than to reduce the cost of your groceries.

#EarthDay isn’t just one day — it’s a daily commitment. As Trump and congressional Republicans continue gutting vital environmental protections and giving tax breaks to billionaire polluters, I'm recommitted to fighting for clean air, land, and water for ALL.

I’m devastated by the passing of my friend and colleague Rep. David Scott. A fierce advocate for all families and farmers, I am forever grateful to have been able to work under his leadership on the House Agriculture Committee. My prayers are with his family and loved ones. May he rest in power.

From gas pump to the grocery store, American families are paying the price of Trump’s war of choice. But he wants to bail out a foreign country that just happens to be one of his family’s billionaire business partners.

Donald Trump says there’s no money for child care and health care. Yet he is spending BILLIONS of your tax dollars every day to fund a war of choice most Americans don't want! What happened to putting America first?

6 weeks ago, Trump’s Energy Secretary promised lower gas prices “in weeks, not months.” Now he claims we might not see them until NEXT YEAR! As Trump’s war of choice continues with no real end in sight, it’s Americans who are paying the price.

I was happy to join the ribbon cutting for Dr. Ala Stanford Center for Health Equity’s new Imaging Center! (1/2)

Donald Trump and congressional Republicans promised working Americans increased tax refunds. Instead, as Trump’s optional war spikes oil prices, families are expected to spend an extra $850 at the pump this year.

Americans will be paying the costs of Trump's war of choice for years to come. World oil prices will continue to affect our gas and diesel prices. All he had to do was NOT rip up the successful Obama Iran deal - whatever he manages to salvage from this mess is likely to fall short of that mark.

2 months ago, VP Vance said there is "no chance" military strikes on Iran would result in the U.S. becoming involved in a forever war. Now the administration says it could continue “indefinitely.” Americans need lower gas prices and affordable health care, not continued warfare.

Not “very high” for who? Donald Trump clearly doesn’t pump his own gas. Right now Philadelphians are feeling the squeeze of paying over $4 per gallon - thanks to his war of choice.

13 American service members killed. Tens of billions of taxpayer dollars spent. Gas prices left soaring. Yet once again, nearly all House Republicans have chosen to support Trump’s dangerous war of choice over the American people.

Gas prices are up over a DOLLAR a gallon for most Americans because of Trump's war of choice. Is the White House celebrating 4/20 a few days early?

This tax filing season, Donald Trump rigged the system for his billionaire buddies and against hard-working Americans. While he made it easier for his wealthy friends to cheat the system, he killed the program that allowed Americans to file their taxes for free.

This Tax Day is a bait and switch for most Americans. President Trump promised to lower costs on Day One. In reality, the rich have gotten richer and working families are paying the price of Trump's broken promises, failed economic policies, and war of choice.

I’m glad to be an original co-sponsor of @raskin.house.gov's vital bill! As it’s increasingly clear Donald Trump is unfit to serve as president, Congress must fulfill its constitutional responsibilities under the 25th Amendment and do its part to hold him to account.

The president's priorities could not be clearer. While Trump wants $1,500,000,000,000 more military spending instead of ending his war of choice, his proposed budget defunds public schools, eliminates LIHEAP aid that helps families afford their heating bills, and guts lifesaving medical research.

Donald Trump gutted the IRS to build a system that allows his wealthy friends cheat on their taxes with no consequences. www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

Wishing everyone in Philadelphia and beyond a joy-filled, abundant Vaisakhi!

This week is #BlackMaternalHealthWeek! As a proud member of the Black Maternal Health Caucus, I’m committed to passing @underwood.house.gov’s Momnibus Act, ending racial health care disparities, and improving outcomes for Black mamas across the country.

On Yom HaShoah, we mourn and remember the memories of the six million innocent Jewish people brutally murdered during the Holocaust. Today and every day, let us honor their memories by rejecting antisemitism and hate in all forms. #NeverAgain

Over 300,000 Pennsylvania families rely on LIHEAP to stay warm through the winter. Yet President Trump wants to eliminate this critical program so he can pour more money into his dangerous war of choice.

Trump is STILL trying to take $10,000,000,000 of taxpayer money for himself. I vehemently oppose this and call on congressional Republicans to do the same!

It’s Day 445 of the Trump-Vance administration. What happened to lowering costs on day one – and starting no new wars? Working Americans are paying the price of Trump’s broken promises and failed policies.

This White House is making it harder for Americans to register to vote, but easier to send them to war.

After Trump and congressional Republicans let critical ACA tax credits expire last year, over 120,000 Pennsylvanians had to drop their health insurance because it’s become too unaffordable. This is the reality of the GOP-created health care crisis.

Statement from Ranking Member @meeks.house.gov on ongoing strikes in Lebanon:

Thanks to Trump’s ill-conceived, dangerous war of choice, you’re paying more every time you fill up your tank!

Today, House Democrats tried to bring a War Powers Resolution to the floor and end Trump’s war of choice. Once again, House Republicans blocked us. Once again, they're choosing Trump’s dangerous warmongering over the American people.

Exclusive: The acting director of the CDC has delayed publication of a report showing the covid-19 vaccine cut the likelihood of ER visits and hospitalizations for healthy adults last winter by about half, according to two scientists.

I’m devastated to hear of the partial building collapse at a construction site in Grays Ferry. My prayers are with the families of the victim and those still missing. Thank you to our first responders who continue working diligently on the scene.

Hard-working Pennsylvanians are paying the price of Trump’s war of choice. In just one month, drivers in the commonwealth spent over $238,535,408 MORE on gas than before this reckless war.

Speaker Johnson needs to bring the House back to Washington immediately. We cannot wait to see if this fragile two-week ceasefire holds — Congress must act NOW to end Trump’s illegal war of choice.
