This is what drinking water in Georgia looks like after Meta began data center construction in the community. Today I called for EPA and Congressional investigations into the impact of data center construction on local drinking water supplies. We cannot take water for granted.

Trump's economy is being held up by a massive AI bubble. A recent study found that of 300 companies that owned generative AI tools, 95% reported zero return on their investments. We will not entertain a bailout of these companies should this bubble pop.

Today, we remembered the life of Cecilia Gentili on the House floor. Her journey from Argentina to NYC, her advocacy for trans & undocumented rights, & her artistic contributions touched countless lives. Together we'll continue her fight for equality — especially for trans youth.

Why was the Secret Service’s protective perimeter in Butler shorter than the range of an AR-15? It does not take 60 days to answer that question. The agency’s failure to publicly account for these questions and others from Congress is unacceptable. Dir. Cheatle should resign.

Since October 7th, 27,478 Palestinians have been killed. 70% are women and children. 136 hostages remain unrescued. Most Gazans can’t access a hospital. That’s not war. It’s slaughter. Americans cannot afford another $17 billion on unconditional violence that risks regional war.

Four years ago, the Green New Deal was called “unrealistic.” Last year, we fought for climate action in the IRA. That fight resulted in the largest piece of climate legislation in American history. “First they laugh at you, then they fight you, then we win.”

There is no world in which the forced famine of 1.1 million people cannot be considered genocide. And that is exactly what we are watching unfold in Gaza now. We must enforce U.S. laws and halt weapons transfers to the Israeli government to stop an atrocity in the making.

Targeting trans children for playing sports makes all women, whether trans or cisgender, less safe. Sex testing is regressive, invasive, discriminatory, and a fundamental violation of our privacy as women and as Americans. This is shameful.

Health care monopolies on patient care screw over working families and destroy your ability to access affordable care. All so corporate CEOs, like those from CVS Health, can pad their pockets. We must break up big medicine. We need a Glass-Steagall for Health Care.

Trump wants to replace doctors with AI to determine whether Medicare patients get the care they need. A machine will have the ability to override a licensed doctor to deny care in order to increase profits. Make no mistake, this is a direct attack on Medicare.

We can't fall into right-wing populism’s lie that the most vulnerable in society are to blame for wealth inequality in our countries. We need to build movements that tell the truth: the story of wealth inequality is not a cultural one, but a class one.

Today I asked if any Congressmember on Energy & Commerce Democrats would want to live next to a data center. The silence in the hearing room reflected the realities of working people across the country. We must address the real, dangerous health impacts of data centers on our communities.

Trump's Big Ugly Bill is a deal with the devil. It hikes up taxes on people making less than $50,000 while cutting Medicaid and SNAP benefits to give Elon Musk and greedy billionaires a huge tax break. You do the math. Is that worth it to you?
