I have to wonder what it will take for my Republican colleagues to act on gun violence. Columbine wasn’t enough. Sandy Hook wasn’t enough. Vegas wasn’t enough. Parkland wasn’t enough. Pulse wasn’t enough. Even their own President being shot at multiple times still wasn’t enough.

@edsecmcmahon 's job isn’t to say all children "should be" treated equally. Her job is to make sure they actually are. Right now, reality says otherwise. And so did her response.⬇️

At today’s oversight hearing, families who’ve lost loved ones to gun violence sat through hours of Republicans focusing on protecting gun dealers instead of our communities. Honored to stand with @momsdemand families fighting for real gun safety & an end to preventable violence.

Thank you to the Pittsburgh Community Reinvestment Group for convening their 2026 Summit. Our communities deserve development rooted in justice, investment that serves our people, and the power to decide what happens on our own streets. We know the assignment. Let's go get it.

The Epstein investigation is glaring proof that we have a two-tier justice system: one for the wealthy and well-connected and one for survivors. @oversightdems took our investigation to Palm Beach where many of the horrific crimes—and failures of justice—took place. We will not stop pursuing accountability.

Millions of people will be disenfranchised by this extremist Supreme Court. To protect and restore our voting rights, we need court reform immediately. Expand the Court. Set term limits. Enforce ethical standards. Attacks on our voting rights are systematic—our approach must also be.

This Mother’s Day I’m thinking of the moms and mother figures unjustly detained at Moshannon who would rather be at home with their babies. Yesterday we packed and sent off buses with donations for them. It’s the least we can do. Grateful to @PittsburghWomenForDemocracy and Indivisible Pittsburgh for this beautiful demonstration of solidarity.

The Trump admin is welcoming a sanctioned spyware company that targeted journalists, activists, and US officials worldwide—and whose software can silently hack your phone. I'm demanding answers from @CommerceGov . This is a yet another threat to our civil liberties.

When super PACs like AIPAC or crypto pour millions into our elections, they aren't truly helping Black, brown, working class, and progressive candidates. What they're doing is drowning out our voices and our political power.

When people have a stable place to call home, they have the foundation to raise their families, stay healthy, and build a future right here in PA-12. Proud to deliver $1 million in federal funding to @URAPGH to help turn vacant downtown office space into affordable homes. Thanks for joining us @CoreyOConnorPA !

Super PACs have allowed corporations and billionaires to take hold of our democracy. That's why we have an affordability crisis impacting us from housing to healthcare to childcare. If we want to lower costs, we have to get money out of politics.
