    I agree with Ranking Member that the Trump Admin’s school safety report is not a serious effort to make students safer. We have an obligation to keep students safe from and protect their civil rights. The recommendations in this report do neither.

    Ranking Member says Trump administration's school safety commission report "is not a serious or good-faith effort to make schools safer for students and educators." Full statement:

    The Trump administration’s public charge rule not only deters immigrant families from utilizing needed benefits, but threatens children’s access to healthy food. Last year, nearly 3 million households couldn't provide nutritious food for their children.

    As we remember the victims of the Sandy Hook tragedy, we must also remember our duty to take action. Congress must pass evidence-based solutions to ensure all students have a safe and healthy learning environment.

    While this is a good first step toward making defrauded students whole, there are still 100,000 more students awaiting desperately needed relief. We will be watching closely to ensure the Department of Education quickly and fully implements the 2016 Borrower Defense rule.

    It's official. House Republicans will not hold one hearing on the minimum wage during their eight years in the Majority. Related: One in nine American workers is living in poverty.

    Tomorrow's hearing has been postponed.
