America's education system is failing far too many students.

Today, I'm joining House Appropriations Democrats & Secretary Miguel Cardona to fight for high-quality, affordable, accessible education⬇️ youtu.be/O55aFSknvz8

The Arizona Supreme Court just revived a law from *1864* banning abortion in virtually ALL instances.

This is why reproductive rights can’t just be “left to the states to decide.'

Your healthcare should not be up for debate.

BREAKING: Arizona's Supreme Court just upheld an 1864 abortion ban, in a harmful & dangerous decision.

Arizonans deserve the right to make their own health care decisions, without 160-year old laws and a panel of judges coming between them and their doctors. (1/2)

Diplomats cannot do their work to promote dialogue in the face of armed threats.

I am outraged by this violation of the Vienna Convention, which ensures the immunity of diplomatic missions. The international community cannot tolerate this.

Shirley Chisholm taught me the importance of representation, active participation in democracy, and fighting for what you believe in.

I’m so inspired by the young people following in her footsteps today!

This is huge. Thanks to President Biden & advocacy by Progressive Caucus, this initiative will cancel student loans for millions—despite GOP opposition. 👏🏾

We must continue using every tool available to deliver economic justice to working people nationwide, especially communities of color.

The Israeli airstrike that killed seven World Central Kitchen aid workers, including an American citizen, was absolutely horrifying and unacceptable. 
Today, I called on the Biden Admin to withhold offensive arms transfers to Israel with Rep. Jim McGovern, @Janschakowsky and 37 other colleagues.
