Our communities deserve safe, reliable transportation that meets the needs of working families.
My bipartisan Safer Rail Crossing Act was recently advanced as part of the House Transportation & Infrastructure Committee’s ongoing surface transportation reauthorization process — a step toward safer rail crossings and stronger transit!

10 years ago today, 49 lives were stolen at Pulse Nightclub — a safe haven for Orlando’s LGBTQ community turned into a site of unimaginable horror.
Their memory demands more than remembrance, it demands action. Let's honor the victims, survivors, and their loved ones by continuing to build a future free from gun violence, hate, and bigotry.

If ICE or federal officers violate your constitutional right to record, they should be held accountable.
That's why I introduced the Right to Record Act to create a legal pathway to sue federal officers and put real enforcement behind our rights.

Inflation is at a three-year high.
Trump might love inflation, but working people who are paying the price sure as hell don't.
Reporter: Are you concerned, Mr. President, about the latest inflation number which came out this morning?
Trump: No, I love it. I love the inflation.

Today I visited the Donald J. Trump & Jeffrey Epstein Memorial Reading Room in DC.
The sheer scale of this exhibit is staggering, but what you see is only a fraction of the story. Millions of files remain hidden from the public.
Survivors deserve answers and the American people deserve the truth.

The House GOP just voted to give ICE and CBP $70 BILLION.
Instead of investing in you and ensuring you can afford your healthcare, groceries, or rent—they chose to hand $70 BILLION to agencies operating without any guardrails while terrorizing and brutalizing our communities.
I voted HELL NO.

We cannot forget this vote and where their priorities lie.
Because when given a choice, they chose a cruel deportation machine that disregards basic human rights and dignity, and they chose a corrupt administration over the people they were elected to serve.

If ICE or federal officers violate your right to record, there should be consequences.
That's why I introduced the Right to Record Act to create a legal pathway to sue and hold them accountable — because no one is above the law.

No federal agent is above the Constitution. My bill, the Right to Record Act with @SenBlumenthal strengthens your First Amendment right to record, observe, and peacefully protest — and gives you the power to sue federal agents who violate those rights.

Today at @Netroots_Nation, I joined @RepBeccaB and @taxgreed to talk about why billionaires need to pay their fair share.
So of course after our panel, we had share one simple message: tax the rich.

Today at @Netroots_Nation, @RepMaxwellFrost and I joined @taxgreed and top advocates for a discussion on the need for billionaires to pay their fair share in our country.
We know that financial power turns into political power - it’s time to level the playing field.

Gun violence is a uniquely American epidemic, but it doesn't have to be this way. We each have the power to take action to end this crisis and save lives.
Today on National Gun Violence Awareness Day, we #WearOrange because our children deserve to grow up without the fear of being shot.

My heart is with Mayor Demings and his loved ones as they navigate this battle ahead.
Mayor Demings has always been a fighter for Orange County— always leading with love and resolve. I have no doubt he’ll face this challenge with the same strength.
We are standing with him every step of the way.

We’ve created an economy where people are working full-time but still can’t afford housing, healthcare, or savings. That’s not real freedom. True freedom means ensuring our people have the resources and ability to actually get ahead.

Gov. DeSantis has rushed through a deeply flawed property tax plan that puts funding for essential local services at risk and leaves counties and cities in a perilous financial position, with no clear plan to replace the lost revenue.
Floridians deserve financial relief, but it should not come at the expense of the wellbeing of the very people it is intended to help.

A group of House Republicans recently launched a so-called “Sharia Free America Caucus.”
Let’s call it what it is: an effort to legitimize anti-Muslim bigotry in Congress.
Congress cannot allow Islamophobia and bigotry to be institutionalized, and we must protect every person's right to worship free from discrimination.

Incredibly proud to have secured $500,000 for the City of Maitland through Community Project Funding and to celebrate today's groundbreaking for the extension of Independence Lane.
Combined with the city's investment, this project will add 600ft of new streetscape to downtown Maitland, helping create a more connected, walkable downtown while supporting local businesses and future growth in the heart of Maitland.

Jeffrey Epstein's crimes have exposed a deeper problem: how rich, powerful, and well-connected people can avoid accountability while survivors are failed by the systems meant to protect them.
We interviewed Pam Bondi last week to get answers about those failures. Her testimony raised more questions than it answered, but I won’t stop fighting for accountability and justice for survivors.
