I am the proud mom of three. Altogether, I have 36 cumulative school years under my belt, and I served on a school board for 6 of those fighting for parents and for kids. I speak from experience when I call on this Chamber to oppose the…
I thank the gentleman from Virginia for yielding, and I include in the Record a letter from the Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights. The Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights, Washington, DC, March 23, 2023. Support…

When Roe v. Wade was overturned, the impact on Americans was swift and devastating. Women were denied healthcare. Doctors were threatened with criminal charges. Hospitals were forced to put their own liability over patients' lives. As the…
Madam Clerk, I rise to nominate Hakeem Jeffries as Speaker of the House. Madam Clerk, 212, 212, 212, 212, 212, 212, and, today, 212--212 House Democrats stand united behind our leader because Hakeem Jeffries stands united for the American…
