    History is repeating itself before our eyes. Women like Christine Blasey Ford—just like Anita Hill back in 1991—are being ignored instead of believed. From this perspective, not much has changed in the last 27 years between these two speeches I gave on the House Floor.

    Great to work with to stand up for workers and continue the fight to stop the outsourcing of good-paying American jobs.

    Big thanks to for making the trip down to Philadelphia from Connecticut to join our effort. I am proud to stand with her and Philly labor leaders to discuss the importance of fair trade.

    More lies. The Affordable Care Act protects people with pre-existing conditions. You want to repeal it, and Republicans in Congress have tried to repeal it more than 70 times.

    All Republicans support people with pre-existing conditions, and if they don’t, they will after I speak to them. I am in total support. Also, Democrats will destroy your Medicare, and I will keep it healthy and well!

    Dedicated public servants like our service members, teachers & first responders deserve the student loan forgiveness they were promised. Yet new data shows 99.6% of applications have been denied. Secretary DeVos needs to end this mismanagement of PSLF.

    This rule delay from is a big win for students who have been preyed upon by for-profit colleges.
