I’ve been proud to be an advocate for Virginia and deliver on the priorities that will have an impact here in #VA10. I’m especially pleased to have delivered tens of millions of dollars in investments in key local projects that will benefit our communities for generations.

While we don’t agree on all that much politically, I appreciate and respect your efforts for VA10, my home. And, I respect your efforts to bring both sides of the aisle together. I will continue to say prayers for you and your family and wish you the best and Godspeed with your fight.

I want to thank our colleagues on the Appropriations Committee for their diligence in crafting these bills. My hope is that we’ll be able to build on the progress we’ve made this past year to get the appropriations process back to what it should be – an open process that every senator can participate in.

For weeks, I’ve been calling for taxpayer funding to Ukraine to be pulled out of OUR appropriations bills. On Tuesday, I protested on the steps of the Capitol. Tonight the House answered my call, we successfully voted to strip $300 million to Ukraine from the Defense Appropriations Act. This is a victory for the American people and for peace.

The Government runs out of money on January 30th. I'm the leading Democrat on the House Appropriations Committee. To my Republican colleagues: you have my number. I am ready whenever you are.

There is broad consensus affirming what parents already know — mandatory active school shooter drills are deeply traumatizing for children and have no evidence of decreasing fatalities. We should not use taxpayer dollars to mandate kids’ participation in ineffective strategies from the 1990s. Parents deserve the right to opt their kids out. My amendment affirming that passed the Appropriations Committee on a bipartisan basis last night, and I'll continue working with colleagues on both sides of the aisle to move this legislation forward.

House Republicans passed: ✅ ALL 12 appropriations bills out of committee ✅ 3 appropriations bills through the full House ✅ A clean CR to keep the government open It’s Democrats standing in the way of our work for the American people.

Been overwhelmed by all the love I’ve received here, on the streets, in supermarkets & wherever I’ve gone this past week. This was my acceptance speech & it was all about my gratitude to Australia but of course had cricket mentions & my take on what it means to be Australian

I’ve heard from dozens of Iranian students and researchers who complied with every immigration requirement and whose lives have been thrown into limbo by the Trump Administration's deportation chaos. I urge my colleagues on both sides of the aisle to support my bill, the Iranian Temporary Immigration Relief Act.

On day 20 of the #SchumerShutdown, Dems continue to cater to their far-left base as federal workers go unpaid & SNAP runs out of funding. Dems must reopen the gov’t so we can finish our House Appropriations work before time runs out. + my thoughts on Hamas breaking the ceasefire.

Tonight, we finally put an end to the longest government shutdown in our nation’s history, which has caused completely unnecessary harm to so many families in Maine and across the country, as well as to our national and economic security. As Chair of the Senate Appropriations Committee, I worked with my colleagues on both sides of the aisle and with members of the House of Representatives and Administration to resolve the stalemate before America’s dedicated public servants missed yet another paycheck. I am pleased that under our legislation, all federal employees, including members of our military and Coast Guard, Capitol Police officers, Border Patrol agents, TSA screeners, and air traffic controllers will receive their back wages. Since the beginning of the shutdown, I have been pushing for the three appropriations bills that previously passed the Senate with overwhelming bipartisan support to be attached to a continuing resolution to reopen government. These bills include important funding that will support our veterans, troops, farmers, and rural communities, and provide full-year funding for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC).

Trump's budget chief, Russ Vought, has said he wants the appropriations process to be LESS bipartisan. This is a man who ignores our laws and flaunts it. My message to my Republican colleagues this afternoon? STAND UP for Congress as a co-equal branch of government.

Thank you Paris Hilton for sharing your story with so many and advocating for those who couldn’t. It’s been an honor to work across the aisle with Buddy Carter on the Stop Institutional Child Abuse Act and work to bring transparency to a system that has failed families for too long. Let’s pass it in the House.

19 days to go, and House Republicans are threatening yet another government shutdown. It is time for our colleagues to end the political charade, and work with House Democrats on a bipartisan path forward. The clock is ticking. My thoughts on Morning Joe 👇🏾

With all the events of this week I’ve felt like the natural end to a season didn’t happen & we didn’t get to process it properly, so I wanted to just take a look back on what a time we’ve had & how much I’ve loved it, all of you & our manager. 25/26 you’ve been fantastic. UTB ❤️

The tariff plan has been discussed by politicians on both sides of the aisle for decades. We finally have a person with the courage to actually implement it.
