If it is not safe for Americans to travel to Haiti, it is unconscionable to force Haitians to return.

For Haitian nationals, that is not policy. It is cruelty, it is inhumane, and it is a death sentence.

And I will not stop fighting until this injustice is ended.

Although I am currently unable to fly under my doctors’ orders, my work has not stopped for a single day.

This bill is about investing in people, creating real career pathways, and making sure our transit workforce is ready for the future.

I think it’s time, and I think I really held on as long as I did because of the 5000 Role Models program, and my concern about the future of it.

Every rider depends on a skilled workforce behind the scenes.

The American people deserve free, fair, and accessible elections.

I figured if I announced that I was retiring, what would the Legislature and the governor do? What would they say? Would District 24 be an easy target because Frederica is no longer there? I’m a strong candidate.

I’m almost distraught. It’s not true. I am still planning on running.

That is unacceptable.

Our workers deserve certainty. Our communities deserve safety. And the American people deserve leadership that puts them first.

Even leather wears out.

This has been a journey, but it’s time.

Serving the people of Florida’s 24th Congressional District has been the work of my entire adult life.

Following left eye surgery, my priority has been ensuring a full and responsible recovery.

No one in our community should have to wonder where their next meal is coming from.

Whether in Washington or in the district, the work never stops for me.

These are essential workers who protect our airports, respond to disasters, secure our infrastructure, and safeguard our communities every single day.

This bill makes sure we are not just investing in buses, but in the people who keep them running.

I will not accept any effort to limit access to the ballot box.

We must respond with urgency by protecting access to food assistance, supporting local food banks, and making sure our community has the resources it needs.

The House has done its job, and now the Senate must answer to history.

I represent the largest Haitian communities in this nation, and I am sounding the alarm because lives are on the line.

We need a permanent end to Donald Trump’s reckless war of choice.
