“Infrastructure Week” was a just another punchline during the Trump Administration. But thanks to @POTUS Biden’s investments in the American people, communities nationwide are seeing real progress on thousands of new projects—and all the good-paying jobs that come with them!

“The IRS pledges to further increase audit rates by more than 50% on wealthy individual taxpayers with total positive income over $10 million” Thanks to @POTUS ’ Inflation Reduction Act, the IRS is working to ensure wealthy tax cheats pay their fair share!

While the GOP is focused on cutting taxes for the wealthy and giant corporations, @POTUS is working to lower healthcare and prescription drug costs for American families. #PeopleOverPolitics

“The president is honoring his ironclad commitment to not raise taxes on anyone making less than $400,000 and will cut taxes further for workers and families, paid for by asking corporations and those at the top to contribute more.”

Extending the Trump tax cuts would cost the U.S. $4 trillion over the next decade while disproportionally benefitting the richest households. cc: @amprog @BBKogan

Rather than strengthening Medicare & Social Security or investing in education & childcare, the GOP want to spend $4 TRILLION on another giveaway to the wealthy and giant corporations. @HouseDemocrats reject these same trickle-down policies that have failed families for

American democracy only works if political parties agree to adhere to the rule of law and the outcome of our free and fair elections. It is deeply disturbing, even after January 6th, that more and more Republicans openly refuse to accept the outcome of the upcoming election.

Top Republicans, led by former president Donald Trump, are refusing to commit to accepting November’s election results, raising concerns that the country could see a repeat of the violent aftermath of Trump’s loss four years ago.

It's simple: Incarcerated Americans should not be used by politicians as pawns to boost their electoral chances. Proud to join @RepDeborahRoss in the effort to end prison gerrymandering, which distorts our elections and results in unequal representation.

This week, I introduced an amendment with @repcleaver to end prison gerrymandering, but Republicans refused to bring it to the floor for a vote. Incarcerated people are being used as pawns to falsely increase the population in other areas.

Yesterday, I had an outpatient procedure related to a recent knee replacement, which caused me to miss the vote on vacating the speakership. Had I voted, I would have joined the vast majority of lawmakers in rejecting the MTV. My full statement here:

. @HouseDemocrats lowered internet bills by up to $75 a month through @POTUS ’s Affordable Connectivity Program. Now, more than 60,000 households in #MO05 are at risk of seeing internet costs rise due to Republicans failing to extend the program. We must put #PeopleOverPolitics !

Thanks to @POTUS and the savings from his Inflation Reduction Act, the financial future of Medicare has improved substantially. Now that we’ve allowed Medicare to negotiate lower drug cost for seniors, let’s strengthen the program by ensuring the wealthy pay their fair share!

The financial outlook for Medicare improved in the past year, and the program’s funding to pay all the costs for hospital services of older and disabled beneficiaries won’t run out until 2036.
