Trump is trying to delegitimize the election process and, in turn, silence your voice. The whims of one man will not decide our future. We will ensure every eligible American's voice is heard at the ballot box.

Like many New Yorkers, I was watching the Bills game Sunday when a Donald Trump ad came across the screen. I was shocked to see the disclaimer: “Paid for by the U.S. Government.” Your tax dollars are not his personal campaign funds. This is unacceptable and I’m looking into it. Read more:

Donald Trump is banning news networks from the White House because he doesn't like what they have to say. He is trampling on the Constitution. The courts are pushing back, and the American people will too.

What a great night at the ball park celebrating the Rochester Red Wings’ historic championship win. Our community is so proud of this team and all they accomplished this year.

Republicans have failed to act when it comes to AI safety regulations. Instead of making it a priority, House Republicans have adjourned the House. The American people deserve better.

Today I met with local members of @cclusa.org to discuss our shared work to build a cleaner, healthier, more sustainable future for our communities and generations to come. I’m grateful for their continued advocacy and engagement.

Trump’s policies have hurt our economy. Now, the Federal Reserve has been forced to raise interest rates. We must end his senseless, unauthorized war in Iran and work to make life more affordable for working families.

Hey @RepBice - think your team can take the Red Wings tonight? Let’s make it interesting: loser flies the winner’s flag outside their office. Go Wings!

Joe Morelle @morelle.house.gov · 26/09/2026

Every time the Trump Administration has tried to interfere with midterm elections, they have lost. We will keep fighting to make sure your voice is heard in November.

American elections are safe and secure, and we are going to make sure they stay that way. Check your voter registration so you can make your voice heard in November.

Congratulations to the Rochester Red Wings on their first International League Championship since 1997! On to the Triple-A National Championship. Go Wings!

Trump chose to spend at least $38 billion on the war in Iran, money that could have been spent on healthcare and housing here at home. Read more: www.cbo.gov/system/files/2026-09/62…

Public trust in government is crucial to the health of our democracy. That is why Americans must have every opportunity to cast a ballot this and every election season.

Joe Morelle @morelle.house.gov · 24/09/2026

Donald Trump is once again rolling out the red carpet for his strongmen friends while American families struggle. It's a pattern and everyday Americans are paying the price—for a costly war with Iran, reckless tariffs, and an economy that’s making it harder for families to get ahead.

It all comes down to tonight! The Rochester Red Wings are fighting for a spot in the Triple-A National Championship Game, and all of Rochester is behind them. Let’s go, Wings!

President Trump promised to bring down the cost of living. Instead, his affordability crisis has cost American families over $4,200 more in everyday essentials since Trump took office, according to @jecdems.bsky.social data. The American people deserve better.

Joe Morelle @morelle.house.gov · 23/09/2026

The Supreme Court has once again rejected the Trump Administration's attempt to silence the voices of millions of Americans who vote by mail. Now is the time to check your registration, make a plan, and vote!

It was an honor to welcome leaders and changemakers from Rochester to my Washington office last week. During our Constituent Coffee Hour, we had important conversations about our community’s most pressing needs.

Proud to stand with @scanlon.house.gov as we work to protect every American's voice in our elections.

ICE officials will not be intimidating voters at polling locations this November. It is against the law. @housedemocrats.bsky.social are prepared to defend voters from any intimidation at the polls.

America leads the world in medical research because scientists, not politicians, decide which research has the most promise. Putting NIH funding in the hands of political appointees should alarm all of us.

Playoff baseball is back in Rochester! I couldn't be more excited for our Rochester Red Wings. For the first time in 13 years, the Wings are headed to the postseason. This is a special moment for a team that means so much to Rochester and generations of fans across our community.

Joe Morelle @morelle.house.gov · 20/09/2026

ICE shot and wounded another person today, this time in Austin. Their chaos and cruelty are unacceptable. Americans should not have to fear their own government. The public deserves answers and accountability. bit.ly/4xyQNBu

Joe Morelle @morelle.house.gov · 18/09/2026

Know that we are fighting to protect your voice in our elections, and we're winning. We know there are more threats coming. We know the President won't stop, but neither will we.

The American people fear for their families’ futures, and they want us to rein in the most corrupt administration in the history of our country. That's what I'm fighting for in Congress.

This ruling is a victory for free speech and another reminder of how far ICE has strayed from its mission. Federal agents tracked down a Rochester resident and threatened him over protected political speech. That is unacceptable, and it has no place in America. bit.ly/4cRede2

Joe Morelle @morelle.house.gov · 15/09/2026

Elections in chaos are easier to disrupt. That is Donald Trump's goal. We are prepared for this. American elections will remain safe, secure, and fair.

It's National Voter Registration Day! Make sure your voice is heard in November: ✅Confirm your registration status. ✅Identify your local polling station. ✅Vote early, or drop off your ballot at a physical drop box. ✅Contact your local board of elections with any questions.

Joe Morelle @morelle.house.gov · 15/09/2026

Tonight, the Supreme Court refused to silence the millions of Americans who vote by mail. I have travelled across the country talking to local officials and I know that our elections are safe and secure, despite Trump’s threats. We are ready to face any challenge to free and fair elections.

Joe Morelle @morelle.house.gov · 14/09/2026

Election Day is just 50 days away, but Donald Trump is still trying to silence American voters. He will not succeed.

Joe Morelle @morelle.house.gov · 14/09/2026

Trump promised a “boom,” but what we got was devastation. According to a @jecdems.bsky.social report, 150,000 manufacturing jobs have been lost since Trump began his second term. He has failed working families everywhere.

The Justice Department has not been successful in any effort to grab voter rolls from states.

Joe Morelle @morelle.house.gov · 12/09/2026

The SAVE America Act has never been about securing elections. The midterm election is just weeks away, and House Republicans want to immediately implement legislation that would upend our elections and make it harder for millions of Americans to vote.

This is Jim Crow 2.0. The Supreme Court's continued weakening of the Voting Rights Act threatens the fundamental right of every American to have an equal voice in our democracy. We cannot be silent and I am grateful to see advocates like LaShawn Warren speaking out.
