    I’m so proud to have earned a 100% score from the Human Rights Campaign on their Scorecard for the 115th Congress. We’ve made great strides in recent years striking down discriminatory policies targeted at the LGBTQ community, but we have more to do.

    The Treasury Dept just reported that the federal budget deficit grew to an astounding $779 billion in FY2018, an increase of almost 17%. The massive increase in the deficit is a direct result of the massive tax cut legislation that Republicans rushed through Congress last year.

    I’m proud that the Know the Cost Act, legislation I introduced with 9 colleagues to eliminate gag clauses was signed into law last week. By lifting these outrageous restrictions, this legislation will help families in my District & across the country to save costs of medications.
