Today, the Justice Department is due to release the hundreds of thousands of Epstein files they’ve been withholding — and they should move to do that swiftly, and release them in full — no redactions.

It’s time to find out: what Donald Trump is afraid of? What is he hiding?

Today is the deadline to release the Epstein files. The DOJ is refusing to comply.

This is about justice for survivors and holding participants and co-conspirators accountable.

The Epstein Files Act is the law, not a suggestion.

Release the files. Immediately.

In the face of the horrific shooting at Brown University, people came together.

I would like to take a moment to express my gratitude to law enforcement, firefighters, EMTs, healthcare workers, and all who acted with courage and compassion when it mattered most.

Today is the deadline for Trump’s DOJ to release ALL of the Epstein files and comply with federal law. The law is clear. The Trump Administration had 30 days to release them. Now, they are saying they won’t meet that deadline.

They don’t believe they have a future because they are watching and listening to politicians who do not care if they survive.

This bill isn’t about keeping kids safe. It’s about criminalizing parents and doctors who are just trying to get their kids the lifesaving care they need.

I wonder how many trans people or parents of trans kids my Republican colleagues actually know. I spend time speaking to LGBTQ+ students and they ask me if I know any trans people my age because they don’t believe they will make it to 40.

Trump’s proposed offshore drilling plans would irreparably harm our tourism economy, coastal ecology, and our community. My constituents don’t want oil rigs on their beaches, and I’m doing everything I can to stop that from happening.

Despite bipartisan support for a vote on @housedemocrats.bsky.social’ bill to extend the health care tax credits for 20 million Americans, Republican leadership refused to hold a vote before premiums spike on January 1st. Shame on them.

Internal documents have come out that show the Trump Admin VA is working to cut around 35,000 jobs across the country. This includes cutting clinical healthcare jobs like doctors and nurses.

This is going to hurt veterans' care and drive up wait times.

I'm fighting back.

Grocery bills keep going up while local food disappears from store shelves. That’s backwards. I introduced the bipartisan Cutting COSTS Act to bring down grocery bills for working families — and help small farms get their produce into grocery stores. It’s common sense.

I'm deeply concerned about how Republican cuts to Medicaid are going to impact families in NH.

A recent Guardian report EXPOSED dollar stores for quietly overcharging customers. Lowering costs is my top priority – which is why I just sent a Congressional oversight letter to hold them accountable and demand better for working people.

The DOJ is required to release the Epstein files today. But given their total disregard for the rule of law, they cannot be trusted. House Oversight Dems must be determined and diligent. The survivors—and the American people—deserve no less.

If Congress doesn’t act, healthcare premiums will spike by 114% on January 1.

GOP leadership is choosing delay over care, and higher costs over families.

The votes are there, the solution is ready — the Speaker must stop stalling and allow a vote now.

A bipartisan majority in the House is ready to vote on a clean, 3-year extension of Affordable Care Act tax credits — relief more than 1 million Marylanders rely on to afford health care.

Instead, Speaker Johnson canceled ALL legislative business tomorrow to block that vote.

But instead of stepping in to help people keep the heat on, the Trump Administration is gutting funding that helps families afford energy bills and cutting renewable energy projects that deliver clean, cheap energy.
