Last night, I joined AFL-CIO President @LizShuler to honor the late, great Bill Spriggs Bill championed working people and economic justice. His legacy will live on in the hearts and minds of those of us who had the opportunity to learn from and work with him over the years

$500 right before the election won't help the 15 million people losing their insurance because of Medicaid cuts and expiring tax credits. And it won't come close to offsetting higher gas and other prices caused by an unnecessary war and chaotic tariffs.

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.

But Trump’s policies are making college harder to afford. I’ve introduced legislation to double Pell Grants and to lower borrowing costs, so all students can have the opportunity to attend college, not just the privileged few.

When we reformed FAFSA, we made it easier to apply & expanded Pell Grant eligibility.

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 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.

His retirement comes as President Trump continues his efforts to whitewash history and pressure the Smithsonian to conform to his preferred version of the past. We cannot learn from our history by pretending the most painful chapters never happened.

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.
