This morning I read the messages I receive after mass shootings. These are from students, parents, & teachers who are scared for their lives & are demanding we do something. I know my colleagues across the aisle get these too. Do they care? Is their inaction worth the NRA money?

There is no place for political violence in the United States. My thoughts are with former President Trump and all those impacted tonight. I’m thankful for law enforcement and first responders for their heroic efforts.

This week, House Republicans brought legislation to the floor to block Americans' access to cheaper energy in the name of Refrigerator Freedom. This bill is bad for consumers, bad for the environment, and, quite honestly, a waste of time.

Climate risk is financial risk, and I’ll keep saying it until American consumers are protected from losing their hard earned savings due to climate change.

Republicans’ attacks against Title IX will seriously restrict @usedgov 's ability to protect LGBTQI+, pregnant, and parenting students and reinstates Trump-era rules that seriously disadvantage survivors. I voted NO on their effort to repeal Biden’s Title IX regulations.

As violence & threats continue to rise against reproductive health care patients & providers, it is crucial we protect them. I’m leading the call with @janschakowsky & @RepJerryNadler to ensure safe access to reproductive care.

Today’s decision from the Supreme Court makes a mockery of our Constitutional promise of equal treatment under the rule of law. The court today protected the rights of the powerful at the expense of the powerless. Read my full statement:
