As we ring in the New Year, I'm wishing everyone in PA-05 happiness and time with their loved ones!

Whether it’s food at the grocery store, new appliances, or a new car, Trump’s trade wars have made everything more expensive.

Happy Kwanzaa to everyone celebrating this week!

May your festivities be filled with joy, unity, and faith!

Merry Christmas to everyone celebrating with their loved ones in PA-05!

Louie started spreading the holiday spirit early this year!

My list of things nobody asked for this holiday season:

Holiday decor reveal!

My DC office competed with colleagues in my hall for the best holiday decor!

Stay tuned for the decoration reveal!

There's a hint in the background!

The deadline to release the Epstein files is tomorrow.

Neither the White House nor the DOJ has released anything to the American public, and Speaker Johnson just decided to send Congress home early (again).

What exactly are they trying to hide?
December 18, 2025 at 5:56 PM
We are in a battle to save healthcare for 15 million Americans.

Speaker Johnson needs to put the bill to extend the ACA tax credits for 3 years on the floor before they expire.

There's 2 1/2 days left.

Call your representative.

Energy costs are through the roof across America.

@houserepublicans.bsky.social are continuing to boost oil and gas profits, while doing nothing to lower your bills.
December 16, 2025 at 9:44 PM
I introduced an amendment to extend the ACA tax credits for 3 years.

There's no time to waste.

We have to act now to save healthcare for the American people.
December 16, 2025 at 7:35 PM
@houserepublicans.bsky.social and the White House are once again trying to help oil and gas companies by weaponizing the permitting process for clean energy.

Diversifying our energy grid would lower costs for Americans, but it looks like Republicans in DC have other priorities.
December 16, 2025 at 1:50 AM
Instead of protecting American consumers and our environment, the Trump administration is forcing inefficient energy plants to remain open.

Why? Because it benefits the fossil fuel industries.

I was honored to join Chabad of Media for the annual Menorah lighting, celebrating the culture, heritage, and resilience of our Jewish community.

In the backdrop of this year's celebration of the festival of lights was the horrific antisemitic attack on a Hanukkah event in Australia.
December 15, 2025 at 9:16 PM
I want to wish a happy Hanukkah to everyone in PA-05 gathering with their loved ones to celebrate the festival of lights!
December 14, 2025 at 10:55 PM
We have until December 19th, before 15 million Americans will lose their healthcare coverage.

The Senate blocked an extension of the ACA tax credits, and @houserepublicans.bsky.social only have "concepts of a plan."

Americans’ most essential rights and liberties are at risk.

We must protect their right to speak their minds, be free from unreasonable searches and seizures, and their essential right to privacy.

The abuse of FISA by the FBI and the intelligence community must end.

This administration has mobilized the government to collect Americans’ private Social Security, tax, student loan, health care, voter registration, and SNAP data and then use it in illegal law enforcement activities and prosecutions of the President’s political enemies.
December 11, 2025 at 7:00 PM
Proud to share that my bipartisan Honoring Our Fallen Heroes Act will officially get a vote this week and is on track to be signed into law before the holidays!

It was a beautiful (cold) morning in the Philadelphia Navy Yard to cheer on the team from Penrose Elementary at the Girls on the Run 5K.

Don't be fooled.

Republicans have worked to help corporations and the ultra wealthy avoid paying their fair share for decades.
December 3, 2025 at 7:39 PM
Trickle-down economics has never worked.

The ultra-rich get richer from Republican tax cuts, while the majority of Americans are paying the price.
December 3, 2025 at 6:00 PM
You mean the bill stripping Medicaid and SNAP from millions of Americans, closing rural hospitals, and undermining school lunch programs?

We are talking about it.

It's only a blessing for billionaires.
