    A huge congratulations to Cheryl Johnson on being named Clerk of the US House of Representatives! Cheryl has dedicated her life to public service and helping the most vulnerable among us – I’m overjoyed that she will be returning for the 116th Congress.

    Too many Americans are living paycheck to paycheck in this country. As get to work , we’re going to put the needs of working families first – with good paying jobs & an economy that works for everyone, not just the wealthy few.

    6 days on furlough - our public servants and their families are being used as political pawns. The isn’t helping anyone, it’s just punishing federal workers for the President’s extremist agenda.

    In a span of 3 weeks, both Felipe Alonzo-Gomez and Jakelin Caal Maquin died while in CBP custody. Let’s be clear: this is a crisis created by President Trump’s zero tolerance policy. These are children — we have a responsibility to keep them safe.

    We are very saddened to learn of the death of another child in U.S. custody. We must focus on the wellbeing of these children above any other concern.

    Another tragic death in CBP custody just reinforces the need for the IG to investigate conditions in CBP’s short-term holding facilities, and of course the general suitability of such facilities for families, given that Border Patrol stations were never designed to hold children.

    To recap, in the past 48 hours, Trump has pushed us to the brink of a government shutdown, had his Secretary of Defense resign, and abruptly changed the direction of our Syria policy via Twitter, without consulting his aides or cabinet. This is a White House in chaos.

    When I was a teenager, my dad lost his job and my family relied on food stamps to survive. This unilateral and unjustified move by the Trump Administration won't help anyone escape poverty. It puts vulnerable Americans, including thousands of Veterans, at risk of going hungry.

    Roughly 755,000 people would lose food stamp benefits if the USDA's new proposal to expand work requirements for those in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program is approved.
