These cuts would have a devastating effect on my constituents.

The Republican Study Committee's most recent budget plan would cut benefits for the middle class.

Americans overwhelmingly opposed raising the retirement age.

It is clear that raising the retirement age is not only unfair but would be extremely inequitable.

Raising the age is a cut for every worker, no matter their age or when they retire.

The Republican Default on America bill on the floor today would harm Social Security recipients as soon as 2024.

Yet inexplicably Republicans have targeted Social Security for steep cuts that would harm seniors and those with disabilities.

Social Security is a lifeline for Illinoisans living in my congressional district.

I must imagine you are working with NC DEQ.

I'm very much concerned about the lack of childcare development centers at many of our installations.

I ask for you to support the SCRC so that our districts, those like mine, can successfully move into the 21st century.

Economic development is crucial.

Our communities direly need broadband.

We need to move 'upstream,' not 'downstream,' and make these structures more resilient so that FEMA does not have to pour public dollars back into the same buildings that may again come crashing down.

The steps this Committee takes to roll out broadband in rural America will significantly improve the lives of families and businesses across my District.
