Our veterans risked everything for us; we owe them more than broken promises.
Trump’s move to end union contracts for VA workers is a slap in the face to those who take care of our veterans when they come home. www.cnn.com/2025/08/06/p...
60 years ago, the Voting Rights Act became law with overwhelming bipartisan support. It opened the doors of democracy to millions.
Today, we are seeing that the right to democracy is not guaranteed. As some try to drag us backward, we'll keep pushing forward.

They’re not hiding it anymore.
Republicans want to hand Social Security over to Wall Street and betray the promise Americans pay into their whole lives.
So much for keeping their word.

Medicare and Medicaid turn 60 today.
They help millions of Americans, including around 500,000 in Palm Beach County, get the health care they need.
These programs are a promise that Republicans are trying to break, but @housedemocrats.bsky.social will always fight to protect.

House Republicans and the Trump administration are cutting funding for Sesame Street--a show that’s taught generations of children about kindness, empathy, and friendship. Maybe they should’ve tuned in!
Our kids deserve better.
This bill doesn’t just reduce funding—it marks a dangerous turn toward indifference, isolation, and the betrayal of our global responsibilities.
It heads to the House today, where I'll be speaking out against it.

Happy birthday to my dear friend and colleague, @whipkclark.bsky.social! 🎂🎁🎉
From the Massachusetts State Legislature to U.S. House leadership, you have always been an unwavering advocate for women, children, and families. Our country is a better place thanks to you!
Too many troubling stories have come out about women in ICE and CBP custody, including pregnant women denied maternal health care.
I've joined @demwomencaucus.bsky.social to demand that the Dept. of Homeland Security investigate the abuse and medical neglect of women in their custody.
Trump promised to lower costs, but his first 6 months have done the opposite.
Trump’s Tariffs are raising prices, hurting workers and businesses. And Republicans’ Big Ugly Law will drive up health care, grocery, and energy costs even more.
Americans deserve better.

Trump's assault on the government continues, and it's our kids who pay the price.
We'll keep fighting for every child to have a fair chance at success. apnews.com/article/supr...
I joined 144 colleagues in demanding Education Secretary McMahon and OMB Director Vought immediately release this critical school funding.
With the school year approaching, this illegal delay puts students at risk and leaves schools scrambling to prepare. www.sun-sentinel.com/2025/07/14/b...
Trump is illegally withholding billions from public schools—including over $30M in total for the Palm Beach County School District and Boys & Girls Club.
Congress approved this funding to support afterschool care, teacher training, academic programs, and more.
As we mark three years since Trump's Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, Republicans are now using their Big, Ugly Bill to push us closer to a nationwide abortion ban, jeopardizing access to all obstetric care in their wake. www.wptv.com/wptv-investi...
3 years since Trump's supreme court overturned Roe, and Florida's 6-week abortion ban continues putting women's lives at risk.
Women, not politicians or judges, should be free to make their own health care decisions.
@HouseDemocrats will keep fighting to protect that right.
With Florida home to the largest diaspora of Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans, and Venezuelans, the Trump Administration’s decision to end the humanitarian parole program is a slap in the face to thousands of families seeking freedom from violence and authoritarianism.
It’s reckless and cruel.
When America retreats from the world, China and Russia fill that void.
The cuts to U.S. foreign assistance in Trump’s recissions package undercut key American national security interests and risk our country’s safety and prosperity.
I voted NO.
A sitting U.S. Senator was forcibly removed and handcuffed because he asked questions at a PUBLIC press conference.
Trump's Administration is attempting to silence anyone who dares to speak up against them.
This is not what democracy looks like. This is what dictators do.
Nine years since the senseless, horrific mass shooting at Pulse, the heartbreak of that night still echoes across Florida and the LGBTQI+ community.
As we remember the victims today, we reaffirm our commitment to combating hate and ending the gun violence epidemic.
Republicans think Medicaid and food assistance are too expensive.
But a $45 million ego-fueled military parade for Trump? Totally fine.
🍎 Feed 160,000 vulnerable women, infants, and children for a month.
🏠 House 4,000+ homeless Veterans.
🩺 Fund a year of outpatient care for 31,000+ Veterans.
🛣️ Repave 45 miles of worn‑out roads.
👶 Enroll 5,500 low‑income preschoolers in Head Start.
President Trump is spending $45 million of your money on a military birthday parade—for himself.
Not for our Veterans. Not for readiness. For himself.
Here’s what we could do with $45 million instead of Trump’s military birthday parade 🧵⬇️
Is he kidding?!
Ron DeSantis says it’s okay to run over protestors.
That’s not keeping people safe—it’s inciting violence.
As Chair Emerita, I join the @demwomencaucus.bsky.social to mark the 62nd anniversary of the Equal Pay Act since becoming law.
Today, we renew our commitment to fight for the equal pay, workplace protections, and economic security that all women deserve.
Trump and House Republicans are turning their backs on our Veterans with reckless VA cuts that threaten the care and benefits of those who served.
TODAY at 3 PM ET, watch @democrats-appropriations.house.gov fight back as we debate next year's budget: www.youtube.com/watch?v=4yMp...
As antisemitism continues to rage, I'm proud to have led the effort in Congress to rename the Delray Post Office after Ben Ferencz, who was the last living prosecutor from the Nuremberg trials.
A longtime Kings Point resident, he dedicated his life to speaking out against hate.
RFK told us directly that we shouldn't take medical advice from him, and now he's fired every expert on the scientific committee that reviews and recommends vaccines for the public.
He's putting the health of every American at risk on the basis of conspiracy theories.
Trump promised to fight waste, fraud, and abuse.
Yet, $12M worth of lifesaving HIV-prevention and contraceptive medication is collecting dust in warehouses and set to be destroyed like garbage, while the world’s most vulnerable are left to suffer.
This is cruel and immoral.
On this 81st anniversary of D-Day, we honor the thousands of brave Americans who charged into danger on the shores of Normandy to defend democracy around the world.
Their heroism shaped the world we live in today, and we will never forget the price they paid for our freedoms.
