    The Biden Administration is defending Texans affected by the abortion ban in the courtroom, and we must defend them here in Congress. Urged our Committee to reject another amendment to further limit reproductive freedoms:

    We cannot limit the funding delivered to our communities so that corporations and billionaires can keep getting richer. Building Back Better means taxing the wealthy and corporations, and giving working families the support they need to get back on their feet.

    The U.S. government currently gives Big Oil and Gas more than $20.5 billion a year through tax breaks. It is past time we stop rewarding polluters for poisoning our communities and accelerating the climate crisis. To Build Back Better, we need to end fossil fuel subsidies.

    Why wouldn’t we make the expanded and improved Child Tax Credit permanent after bearing witness to all the progress we have felt in just three short months? Permanency is what our economy needs and what voters want.

    The pandemic isn't over, and people are still struggling to make ends meet. These benefits should have never been allowed to lapse — but this is our chance to make it right. I'm proud to co-sponsor 's bill to extend unemployment insurance through February 2022.

    We’re introducing a bill to extend all federal pandemic unemployment insurance through Feb. 1. Benefits would be retroactive to Sep. 6. We can’t let pandemic unemployment assistance lapse when we’re still recovering from the cost effects of the pandemic.

    Americans pay more for prescription drugs than those in ANY other country. These prices force people to spend money they don’t have, or ration or go without drugs they need to stay alive. Enough is enough. We need to lower drug costs in the Build Back Better Act.

    It's almost like passing legislation to get people out of poverty actually gets people out of poverty.

    Breaking News: The number of people living in poverty in the U.S. declined during the pandemic, at least by one measure, highlighting the scale of government aid.
