President Trump is unfit for office. His actions in the last two weeks have underscored that. I will vote to remove him, whether it's by the 25th Amendment or an impeachment vote in the House of Representatives.

The Supreme Court allowed redistricting to happen in the middle of the decade in order to help the Republican party. We didn't start this fight, but we're going to finish it.

There is no evidence of widespread voter fraud or non-citizen voting in America. The SAVE America Act claims to fix a problem that doesn’t exist, while putting the voting rights of millions of eligible Americans at risk.

Today, House Republicans passed a voter suppression bill that would block millions of eligible Americans from casting a ballot. This cannot become law—our democracy is on the line.

My mother had more reproductive rights than my grandchildren have, and that's hard to wrap your head around. We can't stop fighting to protect the rights we may have once taken for granted.

I'm excited to welcome Congresswoman Sarah McBride to Rochester! As a member of the House Science, Space, and Technology Committee, she's touring some of Rochester's innovative high-tech businesses with me—but no visit is complete without a stop at Genesee Brewery.

The war in Iran has already cost Americans over $19 BILLION in higher gas prices. That’s $150+ more per household, just to fill up for the daily commute. This is what global instability looks like at home. We need leadership focused on lowering costs, not raising them.

What is happening to Dolores Bustamante is tragic. She is a mother, a worker, and a neighbor who has built her life here in Rochester. The Trump Administration's continued persecution of people who have come from other places is disgraceful, reprehensible, and un-American.

Donald Trump proves over and over again he is unfit to serve as president of the United States. I will do everything in my power to remove him.

Donald Trump's comments yesterday were disgraceful. It is time for House Republicans and Senate Republicans to join us, stand up, and stop this president who is hurting American interests around the world.

Donald Trump has spent over $25 billion on unauthorized military action in Iran. Now he's lifted sanctions on Iranian oil, which will net the Iranian government $14 billion. You can't make that make sense.

We need to hold ourselves to a higher standard. My legislation, the Restore Trust in Government Act, would root out real corruption. But Speaker Johnson has refused to bring forward any bill that bans Member stock trading.

Americans want to build their own lives, but they need a start. We need to make investments in people. Shelter them, feed them, and equip them with the tools to build success.

Expiring ACA subsidies will mean a significant increase in health insurance premiums for millions of Americans. Solving this healthcare crisis cannot wait.

The history of this country has been, from its founding, based on the belief that the people get to choose their leaders. The Voting Rights Act is under attack as this Supreme Court tries to take the vote away from so many people. We're not going to let them do that.

ICE's detainment of a five-year-old boy in Minnesota is a disgrace. This insanity needs to stop. Today I voted against further enabling this administration’s campaign of fear and intimidation.

Reckless tariffs have had a profound impact throughout upstate New York, including in Rochester. I talked about how this is hurting our community on MeidasTouch:

WATCH: Attorney General Pamela Bondi refuses to answer questions on Jan. 6. pardons.

I implore my colleagues across the aisle to stop and think before voting for the worst piece of legislation in generations.
