Dr. King didn’t just dream, he disrupted. He understood that justice delayed has a cost, and it’s still being paid today.
This MLK Day, we move from honoring the dream to answering the call for action.

ICE is committing atrocities that cannot be justified under any circumstances. I joined Rep. Kelly in signing articles of impeachment to remove Secretary Noem, and we must defund ICE and hold everyone who has broken the law fully accountable.

It’s hard to miss what’s going on here. A story gets pulled at the same time executives are seeking deals that need government sign-off. That’s not a coincidence.

Republicans in Congress have been opposing the expansion of affordable coverage since the beginning. Why should we believe they want a solution now?

Families are paying more for groceries, rent, energy, health care, and child care—as wages still fall behind. It’s past time for real answers and real solutions that put working families first.

First and foremost, our prayers are with the victims, their families, and their loved ones. But we know prayer alone is not enough. We must take action and address the hate and senseless violence that continue to devastate communities here and around the world.

St. Louis families should never be left out in the cold. Protecting LIHEAP means protecting low-income families from dangerous winter conditions.
That’s a responsibility we can’t ignore.

Remember the whole "I'll bring back manufacturing jobs and fix costs on day one?" Well, the facts are we have lost about 50,000 manufacturing jobs since January.
Americans and folks in the St. Louis region are sick of waiting for policies that create jobs instead of destroying them.

New reporting shows what families in the St. Louis region already feel: these tariffs are nothing but a hidden tax on working people.
Black Friday prices went up, not down—because the Trump administration chose billionaire tax breaks over affordability for everyone.

This is a real step toward justice for the survivors of these horrific, traumatic crimes. Now it’s on the Senate and the President to see this through, but that won’t stop House Democrats from continuing to push for full transparency and accountability.

Releasing the Epstein files not only brings justice to the victims of this horrific abuse, but also exonerates all who have been wrongly accused. Conspiracies must be put to rest—it’s time to put the facts on full display.
