On the 25th anniversary of September 11, we pause to remember the lives lost and honor the heroes who risked everything to save others. We will never forget their courage, their sacrifice, or the resilience that carried our nation forward.

Rep. Lucy McBath @mcbath.house.gov · 07/09/2026

This Labor Day, we honor the workers who keep our nation moving and make our communities stronger. Today is a reminder to continue fighting for fair wages, safe workplaces, and the dignity every worker deserves.

I lost my son, Jordan, to gun violence. I am honored to have my story included alongside these families who have bravely shared their experiences. Thank you, The Missing Word, for creating a space where our voice can be heard and where our children’s memories can be remembered.

Rep. Lucy McBath @mcbath.house.gov · 03/09/2026

I am deeply grateful to The Missing Word for including my story in this powerful book and for giving a name to a grief so many parents carry. This book highlights the stories of ollipsent parents and helps bring awareness to what is means to lose a child.

Rebranding discrimination bans to attack diversity efforts isn't justice or equality, it's erasure. We refuse to let anyone erase American history.

Rep. Lucy McBath @mcbath.house.gov · 03/09/2026

For generations, people of color fought for the right to walk through doors that used to be closed. The Supreme Court struck down segregation in the classroom. Now the Trump Admin wants to call that fight "discrimination" and use it to roll back the very progress we made.

Congratulations to Congresswoman Analilia Mejia (NJ-11) and Congressman Everton Blair (GA-13) on being sworn in to the Congressional Black Caucus. Georgia and New Jersey are so lucky to have you. Your leadership will strengthen the work of the CBC and the communities you serve.

Rep. Lucy McBath @mcbath.house.gov · 28/08/2026

I remember being there with my family, who were active in the civil rights movement and taught me to participate in the fight for justice. Today, as attacks on voting and civil rights grow, it’s more important than ever to stay committed to protecting access and equality for all.

082

Rep. Lucy McBath @mcbath.house.gov · 28/08/2026

Today marks 63 years since the first March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom. We honor the leaders, organizers, and those who demanded justice and helped pave the way for the Civil Rights Act and Voting Rights Act. Their fight built the foundation we stand on today.

Dolly Parton embodied the spirit of our country and the best in all of us. Her immense philanthropic work, especially for children’s health and education, will continue to shape generations. From the Imagination Library to her quiet acts of giving, her legacy will endure. She will be sorely missed.

Rep. Lucy McBath @mcbath.house.gov · 15/08/2026

I am praying for those students affected by this senseless act. VSU Trojans are strong and mighty. We will get through this together. I remain committed as ever to keeping all Americans safe.

052

Rep. Lucy McBath @mcbath.house.gov · 15/08/2026

I am deeply saddened by the shooting at my alma mater Virginia State University. All students should be able to focus on their education without the threat of gun violence.

Rep. Lucy McBath @mcbath.house.gov · 07/08/2026

As students across Georgia’s 6th District head back to school, I’m wishing everyone a safe and successful year ahead. Thank you to our dedicated parents, teachers, and school staff who make learning possible every single day. Here’s to a strong start and a wonderful school year!

Rep. Lucy McBath @mcbath.house.gov · 04/08/2026

I am proud to have joined my colleagues across the aisle in introducing the READ Act. This bill strengthens evidence-based Science of Reading instruction to tackle America’s literacy crisis and help every child succeed. Together, we’re improving literacy nationwide.

Rep. Lucy McBath @mcbath.house.gov · 02/08/2026

I am grieving alongside another community terrorized by gun violence. My heart is with the people of Twin Falls, Idaho and I am praying for those who are now dealing with the devastation of losing a loved one. I will continue to fight for a safer America.

Rep. Lucy McBath @mcbath.house.gov · 17/07/2026

Today, we honor the life of our dear friend and civil rights icon Congressman John Lewis. From leading the march across the Edmund Pettus Bridge to serving in the House, he never stopped fighting for justice. May we keep making good trouble and advancing the work he devoted his life to.

Everyone deserves access to quality health care. We cannot address our nation’s care shortage without understanding the social determinants of health that impact outcomes. We must stay committed to expanding access for everyone and not restricting it.

Rep. Lucy McBath @mcbath.house.gov · 04/07/2026

Today, we celebrate 250 years of America’s independence. We honor the courage and hope that has always defined our nation, and we pay tribute to all who are fighting, serving, and sacrificing to keep that promise alive. Wishing you and your family a safe and joyful Independence Day. 🇺🇸

081

Rep. Lucy McBath @mcbath.house.gov · 29/06/2026

Our nation's independent regulators need to be shielded from political attacks, and we must remain vigilant against further abuses of power by this administration.

Rep. Lucy McBath @mcbath.house.gov · 29/06/2026

I am grateful that the Supreme Court reaffirmed the independence of our Federal Reserve Board. Federal Reserve governor Lisa Cook earned her seat through decades of expertise and leadership.

Rep. Lucy McBath @mcbath.house.gov · 25/06/2026

The Supreme Court struck down a state law requiring permission to carry guns in private spaces like stores, restaurants, and hotels. This sets a dangerous standard that threatens public safety. The American people deserve better.

2228

Rep. Lucy McBath @mcbath.house.gov · 25/06/2026

Today in Education & Workforce Committee, I urged my colleagues to support my amendment to H.R. 5505 so no student is punished for actions they didn’t commit. Accountability belongs with those responsible. Families deserve justice, and we shouldn’t undermine a bipartisan bill that saves lives.

083

Rep. Lucy McBath @mcbath.house.gov · 24/06/2026

I remain committed to advancing legislation that protects our children and prevents the next tragedy before it occurs. We owe it to every family touched by gun violence, and to every family we can still protect, to meet this moment with courage and conviction.

Rep. Lucy McBath @mcbath.house.gov · 24/06/2026

I was proud to join my colleagues in signing on to an amicus brief in defense of mifepristone access. We've seen the life-threatening consequences of the Dobbs decision for families across our country. I'm standing on the side of protecting reproductive freedoms.

0188

Rep. Lucy McBath @mcbath.house.gov · 24/06/2026

Today marks four years since SCOTUS overturned Roe v. Wade. Reproductive care is health care. Your personal decisions belong to you and no one else.

Rep. Lucy McBath @mcbath.house.gov · 19/06/2026

Today we honor Juneteenth and all who fought for our freedom. Their struggle reminds us that progress is earned, not given. The work isn’t done. We must keep pushing for true justice and equity for all. Watch the full floor video here: youtu.be/xXO3teS6cd0

Our office has been honored with the 2026 "Best of Bipartisan Collaboration" Award from @congressfdn.bsky.social. Finding common-sense solutions to serve the people of Georgia has always been one of my top priorities. Thank you to the Congressional Management Foundation for this recognition!

Families shouldn’t be forced into impossible choices because of underfunded classrooms. We must support our schools and ensure every student, including those with disabilities so they can thrive.

084

Rep. Lucy McBath @mcbath.house.gov · 11/06/2026

Hate-fueled violence is rising, from the attacks in Buffalo, San Diego, and Jacksonville to tragedies that have touched my own family. That’s why the Southern Poverty Law Center’s work remains vital, and why confronting extremism is still essential. Every community deserves safety.

077

Rep. Lucy McBath @mcbath.house.gov · 09/06/2026

Today, I joined my colleagues to push for common‑sense, evidence‑based tools to stop domestic violence. Red flag laws save lives. During Gun Violence Prevention Month, we’re calling for a vote on FERPO so families have the resources they need to prevent tragedy before it strikes.

076

Rep. Lucy McBath @mcbath.house.gov · 05/06/2026

Since 2022, fewer people have been killed from gun violence and murders are down. The reality is that crime prevention works. But, the Trump Administration abruptly terminated more than 300 public safety grants in 37 states. That’s why Democrats support evidence-based approaches to combat crime.

Rep. Lucy McBath @mcbath.house.gov · 05/06/2026

On #WearOrangeDay, I hosted a Spotlight Hearing with those who are making our communities safer. Democratic-led investments like the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act and the American Rescue Plan have been paying dividends and saving lives. youtu.be/2mZmR3iGxGU

This feasibility study is a critical step toward the national recognition this trail deserves. Proud to support this bipartisan effort to preserve our outdoor heritage and honor the volunteers who keep this incredible trail accessible for all.

Rep. Lucy McBath @mcbath.house.gov · 03/06/2026

The Benton MacKaye National Scenic Trail Feasibility Study Act has passed the House! The 288-mile Benton MacKaye Trail connects communities across Georgia, Tennessee, and North Carolina, welcomes more than 100,000 visitors, and is maintained by hundreds of dedicated volunteers.

This Gun Violence Awareness & Prevention Month, we remember every life stolen by gun violence and stand with the families forever changed by these tragedies. I honor my son, Jordan, and every victim by putting forth common-sense solutions that save lives. #EndGunViolence

Happy Pride Month! 🏳️‍🌈 As a proud member of the Equality Caucus, I'm working alongside my colleagues in Congress to defend the LGBTQI+ community’s rights. Pride is about more than rainbows or parades—it’s a reminder of both how far we have come and the work we must still take on.

After a lifetime of hard work, every American deserves the dignity of a secure retirement. Whether it was at a fish fry, a community center, or an art show comprised of senior artists, I want to thank every person who took the time to share feedback with me this week.

Rep. Lucy McBath @mcbath.house.gov · 29/05/2026

May is Older Americans Month. This week, I was privileged to spend time with so many senior residents across our district to hear their concerns and make sure they know my office is here to assist with federal issues.

Rep. Lucy McBath @mcbath.house.gov · 25/05/2026

Today, we remember and honor the fallen. The sacrifices they made for our freedom can never be repaid, only remembered with profound gratitude. We hold their memory in our hearts.

Rep. Lucy McBath @mcbath.house.gov · 21/05/2026

Veterans are far more likely to die by firearm suicide than the average American, yet this bill removes safeguards from the background check system with no regard for their safety. I stand with my colleagues against this dangerous change.

0138

Rep. Lucy McBath @mcbath.house.gov · 21/05/2026

There is no excuse for paying someone below minimum wage just because of a disability. Job seekers with disabilities deserve real pathways to independence, employment, and fair wages for their work. This issue is personal to me. Equal work should earn equal pay.

Rep. Lucy McBath @mcbath.house.gov · 20/05/2026

I’m a child of the Civil Rights Movement, and I know what attacks on voting rights and Black representation look like. We’ve seen this before. Efforts to silence Black voices and weaken voting protections are a direct attack on our democracy and our hard-fought progress. youtu.be/IzCe_Rq9XgA?...

Weapons of war do not belong in places of worship. We must work harder than ever to confront the hatred and bigotry which led to this tragedy. This violence must stop.

Once again in America, a faith community has been devastated by gun violence. My heart is with the victims of the senseless shooting at the Islamic Center of San Diego, their families, and all those across the country who are grieving what appears to be an anti-Muslim attack.
