Protecting students should be a shared goal. Instead, the Trump Administration targets LGBTQIA+ students again and again, putting their safety and well-being at risk. Our students deserve better.

The Trump Admin claims it wants to hand education back to the states but this rule would give the already gutted Dept. of Ed MORE power over school grants, weakens protections for underserved students, & lets them cut funding for no reason at all @bobbyscott.house.gov says: "withdraw it."

In today's cost-of-living crisis, unions are more critical than ever to help workers earn higher pay and secure better benefits. Last week, AFSCME President Patrick Moran and I met to discuss how Congress can empower unions so that workers can have a voice on the job.

I strongly support Ukraine and efforts to hold Vladimir Putin accountable for his brutal war. But I cannot support legislation that uses support for Ukraine as leverage to give Donald Trump even more authority to impose his reckless tariffs and trade wars that raise prices on American families.

The House just passed the Science of Reading Act. Championed by Ranking Member @bobbyscott.house.gov and @congressmannion.bsky.social, this bill puts decades of research on how kids learn to read—phonics, fluency, & comprehension—into action and ensures federal literacy dollars follow the evidence.

The Trump administration is waging war on public education. Not on our watch. Today, I stood with AFGE, AFT, and NEA and the educators, staff, and students they serve. We are fighting to ensure every student can access a quality public education.

Trump’s proposed IRS rule is the latest attack on diversity, threatening the tax-exempt status of private colleges over race-conscious programs beyond what was already outlawed by SCOTUS. Colleges have a responsibility to foster environments where we can all thrive.
