The SAVE America Act is bad policy. Americans want their voices to be heard, it's their birthright.

I am horrified by the violence at Temple Israel in West Bloomfield, Michigan.   No one should fear for their safety while gathering to worship. I'm praying for everyone affected, and I'm grateful for the swift response of law enforcement & first responders.

Grateful to meet with community faith leaders for a conversation about the challenges facing our country. In moments like these, dialogue, compassion, and leadership matter more than ever. Thankful for their partnership and their commitment to bringing people together.

I joined the Foodlink Membership Conference today to meet with the people on the front lines of fighting hunger in our community. I'm supporting their critical work by fighting to protect the programs that help families put food on the table.

I’m mourning the loss of my dear friend and colleague, Assemblymember Catherine Nolan. Cathy dedicated decades of her life to public service. It was an honor and a privilege to work alongside her and to call her a dear friend.

Proud to have brought over $15 million back to our community through FY26 Community Project Funding. These projects will help support families across our region.

I beg to differ, Mr. President. People in my community care a lot about having a [bleep] roof over their heads.

Congress represents the people, when you inform Congress you inform the public. Donald Trump chose to inform neither the Congress nor the public before striking Iran and putting Americans at risk.

92,000 jobs lost in February and no U.S. job growth for the last three months. American workers deserve better. We need to be investing in good-paying jobs, rebuilding our manufacturing base, and strengthening the middle class.

I had the great honor of hosting a Pinning Ceremony to honor local veterans who served in the Vietnam War. Less than a month from National Vietnam War Veterans Day, there's no better time to to honor the courage of those who served.

This week I stopped by Optimax, a global leader in precision optics manufacturing. Their team is powering innovation in aerospace, defense, and advanced technology while creating good-paying jobs right here in our community.

📉92,000 jobs lost. 📈Unemployment up to 4.4%. ⛽️Gas prices up 17% across the country. Working families can’t afford Trump's economy.

Great to meet with leaders from the NY Wing of the Civil Air Patrol to discuss their vital work supporting disaster response, emergency services, and youth leadership programs. I'm proud to support orgs that strengthen our communities & help train the next generation of leaders.

On Harriet Tubman Day, we honor her courage and the legacy she left in our community. After escaping slavery, she made Rochester a base for her work on the Underground Railroad, helping guide countless people to freedom. Her courage continues to inspire the fight for justice.

The legislation Trump is pushing is not a true stock trading ban. My discharge petition would bring the Restore Trust in Government Act to the House floor for an immediate vote so we can pass the kind of reform Americans want.

Proud to stand with the Town of Victor today to announce over $1M in federal funding to support critical infrastructure improvements along County Road 9. This investment will replace an aging sewer line that has failed multiple times and help protect the surrounding environment.

As always, American families are paying the price for Donald Trump's reckless actions. Hard working people are suffering while he spends billions of dollars on his war with Iran.

Voters choose us. We don't choose the voters. Check out my latest Substack article on Donald Trump’s continued attacks on our elections.

There are rules, there's a system, and we owe it to the American people and to our service members to have clarity and transparency around President Trump's strikes in Iran.

The team at the Cancer Support Community at Gilda's Club provides critical support, education, and resources for individuals and families impacted by cancer across our community. Today I joined them for a tour and to hear about their impactful work.

Trump is so terrified of losing the midterms that instead of ending the war he started or lowering the costs his tariffs drove up, he’s trying to bully the Senate into silencing voters. Mr. President, how about doing the job you were elected to do instead?

Thank you to the many local organizations visiting D.C. who stopped by my constituent coffee hour to discuss how we can best support their work!

On International Women’s Day, we celebrate the women who strengthen our communities and move our nation forward. I’m grateful for the women whose leadership inspires us every day, and I remain committed to advancing equality and opportunity for all.

Speaker Johnson may have tried to bury the January 6 plaque, but it’s finally in the Capitol. We fought hard to permanently honor the law enforcement officers who defended us and this institution during a deadly riot incited by the President.

President Trump has turned his office into an operation to print money for himself and his family. My discharge petition would bring a real stock trading ban, for Members of Congress, the President, and the Vice President, to the House floor immediately.

Today, we remember those who lost their lives and were beaten on the Edmund Pettus Bridge fighting for the right to have their voices heard in our elections. As top Dem of Committee on House Administration, I am committed to continuing the work that so many before us started.

The American people deserve a transparent explanation for what is going on in Iran.

Congress represents the will of the American people. We must use every constitutional tool available to hold President Trump accountable for starting a war with Iran without Congress’s approval.

I appreciated the chance to meet with the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children. Their work helps combat online exploitation and support families in crisis. We must continue supporting their mission and strengthening protections for children in the digital age.

Today I voted to end President Trump's war in Iran, where we will spend billions of dollars. American families are struggling to put food on the table, they can't afford these reckless decisions.

Kristi Noem is gone, but the damage done by ICE and Border Patrol’s heavy-handed tactics in our communities remains. Americans deserve real oversight and a fundamental reset at DHS.

I support @repjuliejohnson.bsky.social's bill. Voters deserve clarity, not confusion, when they head to the polls.

It was great to welcome Safran to my D.C. office to discuss how we’re strengthening Rochester’s role in advanced manufacturing and innovation. These partnerships support good-paying jobs, grow our local economy, and keep our region at the forefront of cutting-edge technology.

I'll be live on CNN in just a few minutes, tune in!

I’ll be on CNN tomorrow morning, around 6:30 AM, talking about the ongoing fight against voter suppression and why we must keep working to protect every American’s right to vote. Be sure to tune in.

Great to meet with SUNY Chancellor John King Jr. & President of UB Dr. Satish Tripathi to talk about strengthening higher education across New York. Proud to work with SUNY schools that are engines of opportunity preparing students for good-paying jobs and supporting our local communities.

Our community deserves transparency and respect. The Trump Administration's plan to install detention cells in downtown Rochester, steps from a daycare and surrounded by homes and businesses, is unacceptable.

Wishing a joyful and colorful Holi to everyone celebrating in our community! May this festival of colors bring renewed hope, happiness, and unity to your families.

I’m reintroducing my resolution to designate March 3 as National Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Awareness Day. This fight is personal. I'm committed to advancing research, expanding access to care, and ensuring no family faces this diagnosis alone.

Chag Purim Sameach to all who are celebrating Purim in Rochester and across our country. May this joyful holiday bring hope, unity, and the reminder that courage and faith can overcome even the darkest moments.

Nearly 70 million American women would be negatively impacted by the SAVE America Act.

This Women’s History Month, we honor the trailblazers who fought for equality and the women leading our communities forward today. From Rochester to Washington, women have shaped every chapter of our democracy.

It's been a bitter cold winter in our region, and no family should be left in the cold. The LIHEAP Program has been transformative, helping families save money on their energy bills. Click below to learn more and find out if you are eligible for benefits.

My heart is with Austin tonight. No family should have to endure this kind of loss. We mourn the lives taken and stand with those recovering.

I am unequivocally opposed to ICE OR CBP installing detention cells in downtown Rochester. Rochester will not be treated as a staging ground for this administration’s reckless political agenda.

My statement on President Trump’s strikes on Iran:

We are unequivocally opposed to ICE installing detention cells in downtown Rochester, steps from a daycare and surrounded by homes and businesses.

Omar is a Rochester father, business owner, and neighbor. He deserves due process. His family deserves justice. We deserve an immigration system rooted in our constitutional values. I'm standing with Omar and his family.
