Trump’s HUD Secretary said Americans should get “equal rights, not extra rights.” We all know Trump and Turner think anti-discrimination laws give LGBTQ+ people “extra rights.” That’s why the Trump Administration wants to eliminate HOPWA, which provides #housing for people with HIV and AIDS.
HOPWA has had bipartisan support for 30 years, and it’s not going to stop now.

‼️BIG WIN. In a stunning bipartisan vote, my amendment to BLOCK federal agencies from BUYING PERSONAL DATA has passed.
Once this measure is enshrined into law, agents will need a warrant or subpoena to get our private information. No more data broker loophole.
We fought this fight and won. Thank you @repzoelofgren@ronwyden , who authored the standalone legislation on this issue. Together our efforts are working to ensure your data are safe, secure, and protected.
What the hell, people?
Maine electricity prices are up 20% in just the last year. And instead of helping families afford their energy bills, the Trump Administration is using taxpayer dollars to pay companies to walk away from offshore wind projects and redirect investments toward LNG exports.
Enough with these dirty deals. Congress has the power of the purse. Why do Republicans REFUSE to use it?
Biomedical research used to be a bipartisan priority in Congress.
Now, Republicans refuse to invest in the research that saves American lives. In fact, they’re working overtime to make us weaker, sicker, and poorer.
Household electric bills are up 10% nationally since January, and in some places energy prices have more than doubled. Just ask anybody who lives in northern Ohio! This GOP Energy & Water bill retreats from US Continental and global leadership, while Communist China invests record levels in energy.
When America retreats from the world stage, the working class and middle class pay the price for our weakness.
By slashing investments in soft power and kneecapping the State Department, Republicans are guaranteeing a more dangerous world for everyone.
The Peace Corps and UNICEF are getting cut while Republicans legislate larger and larger handouts to billionaires and big corporations. Their recklessness is guaranteeing a worse future for the entire world.
House Republicans are dismantling American diplomacy, forfeiting American global leadership to China and Russia.
Abandoning our allies and turning our back on the world does not make us strong. It makes us weak. It makes us an unreliable ally and an untrustworthy partner.
For many countries, our international aid programs are the primary way they interact with the United States. Trump’s bill to slash global health funding will cause preventable deaths and push our allies towards our adversaries. #usaid
