Tune in tonight at 11:30 PM/10:30 PM CT to watch Congressman Troy A. Carter and me discuss the impact the government shutdown will have on the nation. Click here to view: www.youtube.com/live/2dm-OKj...

ICYMI: Trump is stopping the USDA from tracking how many people don’t have enough to eat. Why? The Big Ugly Law steals food from millions of hungry Americans in order to give tax cuts to billionaires. No coverup can hide the GOP’s shameless agenda. x.com/washingtonpo...

“Border Czar” Tom Homan is being accused of accepting $50,000 from undercover agents pretending to be business people. Stay tuned!

It's that time of year again: tailgate season! I enjoy when we come together as a community to support our teams as they represent us at home and abroad. Look out for me at the tailgate!

We’re winning in courts, marching in the streets, and standing united for our people. As VP Harris said, “Sometimes the fight takes a while; that doesn’t mean we won’t win.” Keep the faith, protect our communities, and stay watchful for truth over misinformation and any attempt to divide us.

Thank you, Tyson, for helping us better serve our communities! We have had a great time at the Mississippi Policy Conference in Tunica, MS so far.

Mississippi has lost over $15 billion since the Affordable Care Act (ObamaCare) was passed. Mississippi refused to take the money, and as a result, people are dying, and hospitals are about to close.

Today, the President plans to sign this devastating bill into law. The full impact may not be felt immediately, but America will feel its weight in time. Despite our amendments, calls, & protests, they passed it. When 2026 comes and it’s time to choose new leaders, let us not forget who put us here.

Praying in the House, while preparing to vote away benefits for seniors, children, and the sick. Hypocrisy at its finest.

Our democracy suffers when lies are louder than laws!

Now that this ugly bill has passed the Senate, it returns to the House—and let me be clear: I will be voting NO again. I refuse to sell out the very people who sent me to Congress. My constituents come first—always. I will never sell them out, not now, not ever.

153,910 people will lose care in Mississippi under this terrible bill, and they have the audacity to call it "Beautiful."

The hypocrisy is astonishing.

It was a pleasure to have @whipkclark.bsky.social in my district as we toured hospitals and listened to the community. Thank you, Whip Clark, for your visit!

Spent the day in Mississippi with Congressman @benniethompson.bsky.social as part of @housedemocrats.bsky.social’s Save Our Hospitals Day of Action. Follow along with us.

Be aware of your rights, everyone! Let’s keep getting involved in meaningful activism!

I'm happy to have @whipkclark.bsky.social joining me in my district.

I have a special guest joining me for my next Town Hall. Be on the lookout!

Trump’s $45M birthday parade is days away—some estimates say $90M. A mountain of YOUR tax dollars wasted so one man can feel like a king. I introduced the HAPPY BIRTHDAY Budget Act to stop it. Not one Republican signed on. They’re either fine with it, or too scared to tell a man-child “no.”

Trump refused to call in the National Guard when the Capitol was under siege on January 6. But now, he’s deploying troops to L.A. to crack down on protests against immigration raids. No National Guard for the attack on democracy yet a full show of force against people demanding justice. Hypocrisy

This administration is a prime example of the three C's: Chaos, Corruption, and Confusion!

Trump’s birthday parade is a $62M joke, $46M for the show, $16M in street damage. Meanwhile, he’s profiting off Bitcoin, sneakers, MAGA merch, and even asking Qatar for a $400M jet. This isn’t patriotism, it’s profiteering.

I had a great weekend with my community, spreading the word, showing up, and pushing for change. I went to the State of the People Power Tour at Tougaloo and rolled down to Gulfport with Stacey Abrams to support Sonya Williams Barnes for Mayor. Let’s keep the momentum going!

Traveled to MS’s 4th District to speak the truth & stand with those struggling. Some may not like me stepping outside my district, but when leaders stay silent, someone has to step up. We’ll get through this together.

Still, there is no real evidence behind their fraud and abuse claims, just noise. No proof means it’s either a lie or hearsay. All I see is Trump-pleasing while Americans get left behind. Folks need to wake up and see who’s serving them and making money for his family.

You can’t shovel shit and call it sugar. The Big Ugly Bill is an absolute disgrace, no matter how they try to dress it up.

They passed the Tax Scam!

Joe, my brother and my friend You’ve led with strength and heart through every storm. Now we stand with you. Praying for healing, peace, and continued courage. You are not alone. With love and respect, – Bennie

Lies. Lies. And more lies. I pressed Secretary Noem for written proof and she had nothing. Just like the rest of this administration: loud on claims and silent on facts. youtu.be/OFBw-EzCWss

The GOP is out here trying to rename the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America because clearly that’s the emergency, while Americans are out here losing healthcare, housing, and food benefits. We see exactly where GOP priorities lie.

I'm just going to leave this here.

We thank Jasmine for being a bold and brilliant light on Graduation Day. Though Tougaloo has since received troubling threats, we stand firm. The College has taken swift action to ensure campus safety, and we remain unshaken. Tougaloo has endured for generations, and we will continue to stand.

This weekend, I welcomed Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett to Mississippi. She is a true force in Congress. Her boldness, brilliance, and deep love for justice inspire us all. She’s more than a colleague; she’s like family. The future belongs to leaders like her.

The Trump administration’s attempt to remove exhibits from the Smithsonian’s National Museum of African American History and Culture is a blatant attack on Black history. Erasing our past won’t change the truth. We will not be silenced. #PreserveBlackHistory

I’m pleased to announce my upcoming visit to MS04 with the Forrest County Democrats. We, as Democrats, recognize the importance of informing constituents nationwide about the harm caused by this administration.

I will be on CNN in just a few minutes. Tune in!

One key difference between Democrats and Republicans? We Dems back our claims with facts and evidence. They make noise and hope you’ll believe it—it's time for the GOP to start showing receipts instead of just running their mouths.

It is truly an honor to welcome my dear colleague, the gentlewoman from Texas, to our beloved Eagle Queen Tougaloo College to deliver an incredible commencement address. She is undoubtedly one of the promising leaders in Congress, and I eagerly anticipate hearing her inspiring message.

Easter egg hunts hit different when eggs cost $6 a dozen. At this point, the only thing hiding better than the eggs is economic relief.

In 90 years of social security, we have never had a check bounce or be late, but they want you to believe the system is broken.

This is Anthony, one of the attendees at the second district art contest, but also an accomplished outdoorsman. I enjoyed our conversation and look forward to an opportunity to go into the woods with him.

@benniethompson.bsky.social and @reptroycarter.bsky.social discussed the budget cuts and the blueprint and everything surrounding the Republican attempt to destroy the programs that keep money alive and give billionaires a tax cut 5/

My next round of town halls in my district will be announced this week. Stay tuned for more details!

Mike Johnson is telling us to “trust the president's instincts on the economy” as if Trump didn't bankrupt several businesses.

This is the result of being unqualified.

I am often blown away by the artistry of those in MS02. This portrait, titled "Accountability" by Sabrina Howard, tells a profound story of our work on January 6. @lizcheney.bsky.social @raskin.house.gov @adamkinzinger.bsky.social @adamschiff.com

Proud to join Ranking Member @benniethompson.bsky.social in introducing the Rights for TSA Workforce Act. This legislation boosts pay and collective bargaining rights for over 47,000 TSOs nationwide, bringing us closer to protecting ALL workers' hard-earned rights.

I am holding two Town Halls in my district next week. My plan is to keep my constituents informed and remain accessible to them during this chaotic time.

As Democrats, we can't continue to play nice because we’re dealing with an administration that is the polar opposite of what we believe. It’s just as simple as that!
