Today I spoke out on the need to extend the Affordable Connectivity Program with my New Dem Coalition colleagues. Over 135,000 households in #OH11 are enrolled in the ACP – which is closing the #digitaldivide.
We can’t cut the cord on their connection.

Today I met with community leaders from across #OH11 to discuss local concerns and how my office can help.
A major topic was the need for gun safety reform.
House Democrats know that keeping #PeopleOverPolitics means passing gun safety legislation to protect our communities.

We must protect the reproductive rights of every American with new federal legislation.

Let me get this straight: the same #SupremeCourt justices taking luxury trips paid for by billionaires just voted to deny student loan forgiveness for everyday Americans?
Our courts – from highest to lowest – must start working for working people.

The Supreme Court ruling on affirmative action is a disaster for underserved communities, including the Black and Brown kids I represent, denying many a fair chance.
Pretending racism hasn’t shaped America for 500 years just deepens inequities.
I won’t stop fighting for justice and equal opportunities.

The state’s argument in Moore v Harper was January 6th in a suit and tie.
Today's ruling is a victory for voting rights and fair elections and a defeat for the radical effort to undermine our democracy.

There are real problems impacting women’s sports: sexual harassment and assault, unequal resources + pay inequality.
Yet, my colleagues aren't trying to address those issues. They're just trying to pass a trans+intersex sports ban.
Tells you all you need to know. #[0]
