Like so many of my constituents, I care deeply about animal protection and welfare – and I continue to work on these efforts in Congress. Honored to be named a Humane World Action Fund Humane Champion!

Wonderful to stop by one of our local Social Security Administration offices to thank our public servants during Public Service Recognition Week! I’m deeply grateful for the dedicated public servants who keep our country running. They deserve our gratitude and respect, not political attacks, mass firings, and efforts to undermine their work.

In a Wild West AI environment without minimally acceptable federal guardrails, states have taken the lead to address real and growing risks – and that’s a good thing. Until there’s a strong federal framework, states must retain the ability to protect the American public.

Donald Trump and his administration know tariffs are terribly unpopular and increasing costs for American families. That's why they refuse to let Congress vote on them – because they know they don’t have the votes.

It’s been 60 days since Trump started this war against Iran. But this war should've never should’ve happened, and it needs to end. Now. Under the War Powers Act, this administration is now required withdraw our troops or make their case and seek Congressional authorization.

For many species, the Endangered Species Act is the difference between extinction and survival. Last week, House Republicans chose Earth Day to try to gut it, but they didn’t have the votes. This is a win for wildlife, but it’s not the end of our fight!

Good news: the House has passed the Taxpayer Experience Improvement Act, which @repdavid and I introduced earlier this year! Our bill would pave the way to modernize the IRS with better technology to improve service for the American people. Here's why that's sorely needed:

Earth Day is a reminder of our responsibility to take care of our planet, and we have our work cut out for us! Donald Trump's attacks on our environment to protect the interests of his rich oil friends are many, but let me explain just 10 of them:

It was great to have so many Northern Virginia families join us for Passport Day today and take advantage of an easy, accessible process to get their passports taken care of.

At today's @waysmeanscmte hearing, I asked RFK Jr. how many more millions of dollars he intends to take from efforts that reduce health care costs and improve the patient experience. He didn't answer my question, and instead bragged about a Yale-educated physician who's in charge of these funding cuts.

One of the opening acts of Trump's war of choice was the massacre of schoolkids in Iran. Those kids would be alive today if Congress had done our job and restrained the president's lust for power. Sadly, House Republicans again blocked a bill to end the war. A contemptible failure of moral leadership.
