Today, the House took a history-defining step to provide humanitarian aid for those suffering around the world.

In the coming weeks, we must now be laser focused to ensure this passed humanitarian aid reaches the hands of those who desperately need it.

It is essential!

We must never lose sight of those personally affected by Russia’s assault on Ukraine.

Ukrainian children have shared with me their pain and I’ve seen the destruction they live in with my own eyes.

I stood on the House floor today to advocate for their freedom from this tyranny.

Today we have prevailed: President Biden released a new Title IX rule prioritizing student safety and protection!

I said what I said: the moment is ours and it is now.

House Republicans need to put politics aside and join us to govern.

Transgender people, especially trans people of color, are disproportionately impacted by HIV.
