After cutting healthcare for millions of Americans, giving tax breaks to billionaires, driving up costs, and waging another forever war, the Republicans' latest budget would waste billions of dollars on more of the same. I voted NO on this disastrous bill.

Last night, I was honored to speak at Columbia's 2026 DC Reception and meet with students and alumni from my alma mater. I'm proud to have consistently supported federal appropriations for education and research agencies and advocated for Columbia's cutting-edge innovation and development programs.

Last night, I voted against the GOP’s amendment that would have codified Trump's trans military ban into law. In a close vote, we defeated the amendment by a vote of 217-212.

The Living Donor Protection Act is my bill to prevent insurance companies from discriminating against individuals for making the heroic decision to donate their organs. Without this bill, companies can penalize donors with higher premiums and scare away prospective donors.

Trump administration policies are rooted in cruelty and chaos—ICE and CBP agents are operating without independent oversight, indiscriminately ripping our neighbors away, and terrorizing our communities with rampant violence.

It was the honor of a lifetime to work with him on the reauthorization of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, the Equality Act, and our advocacy to end the scourge of gun violence. We will carry his legacy forward by continuing the tireless fight for civil rights.

The Trump administration has mercilessly attacked access to gender affirming care for trans Americans. Now, Pete Hegseth is proud to announce the Trump administration will provide testosterone replacement therapy for male soldiers. Really?

Just last week, the Supreme Court of the United States struck down this xenophobic and unconstitutional executive action. I'm proud to celebrate the anniversary of the 14th Amendment and defend our Constitution from attacks by a tyrannical president.

🚨NY-12 will experience extreme heat this holiday weekend. 🚨 Use community resources, stay hydrated, and check on your neighbors.

Starting today, Republicans’ “Big Ugly Bill” will raise costs for students by limiting students’ access to federal student loans and eliminating repayment plans.    Call your student loan servicer today to see how you are impacted. studentaid.gov/manage-loans...

Trump's immigration policies are cruel, inhumane, and chaotic. It’s no surprise that states and localities do not want to expend their limited resources to aid and abet his extreme and illegal agenda.

Using oil paints, she created a beautiful example of the power of art as a storyteller for our communities. In Congress, I am a proud champion of the arts and will continue to advocate so dedicated young artists like Hanseul have the resources they need to pursue their artistic endeavors.

We must fight to protect all Americans’ rights to access the full spectrum of reproductive healthcare, including abortion.

The Republican majority is refusing to consider my bipartisan amendment to prohibit the elimination of the Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues (SEHI). What are they afraid of?

Donald Trump's latest failure will cost more than $16 million taxpayer dollars. He grossly underestimated the burdensome cost and timeframe for the operation and degraded one of the nation’s most iconic landscapes with this misguided and reckless vanity project.

The New Tang Wing will be home to new educational initiatives, public programs to learn about American history and civics, and it will make history as the first permanent home for an American LGBTQ+ Museum. I look forward to NY-12 exploring and enjoying the new additions for years to come!

I will not stand for this attack on our democracy and together, we will continue to fight to protect Americans’ fundamental right to vote and exercise our power.

This year, the Trump administration tried to strip the Pride flag from Stonewall. But, in defiance, we re-raised it. Today, the Pride flag rightfully flies as a reminder that Stonewall was a beginning.

Read my statement on Donald Trump making a deal with Iran to end the war he started:

June is National Gun Violence Awareness Month, and we need to do more to protect our communities from gun violence.

I am proud to work with advocates at the National Kidney Foundation to move this critical bill through Congress. For over a decade, I have worked on the LDPA to protect heroic organ donors, and the time is NOW to pass this bill into law.

Now I am leading a bipartisan letter with Congressman Goldman and Congresswoman Malliotakis to call upon the federal government to declassify certain records from the investigation into the attacks so families who lost loved ones can have the evidence they need to pursue justice in the legal system.

For the first time, Fox is reporting my views accurately. Go Knicks!

Republicans on the House Judiciary Committee are doing the bidding of billionaire Trump-ally Rupert Murdoch instead of addressing the soaring costs of streaming that American viewers are facing.

Mergers of massive broadcast corporations increase costs for American families. Viewers are paying far too much and jumping through extraordinary hoops just to watch their favorite teams.

The case against the Southern Poverty Law Center is yet another instance of Trump weaponizing the DOJ against his political enemies.

SPLC’s informant program has been essential in preventing acts of hate and terrorism in communities across America. Republicans are waging a war against this organization because they are more focused on advancing Trump's radical-right agenda than on keeping American communities safe.
