Statement “Massive tax breaks for billionaires and wealthy corporations. Hunger, hardship, health crises, and other harms for America’s moms and families– and an even larger deficit for the country.
“That’s what would result from the reckless, irresponsible budget resolution that Republicans in the U.S. House of Representatives passed this evening, if it were to become law. That must never happen.

News release Leader Jeffries: Good afternoon. Today we stand together as House Democrats with the American people to push back against this reckless Republican budget. This is a critical moment in the American journey. Everything we care about is under assault. The economy is under assault. The safety net is under assault. Our very way of life as a country is under assault. Democracy itself is under assault. Donald Trump, the administration and House Republicans are hurting the American people.

Statement “It’s hard to imagine anyone more vulnerable than a migrant child, alone, without parents, who’s in the United States to escape gangs, sexual or domestic violence, trafficking, abject poverty, or other horrors. Denying legal representation and orientation services to those children as they try to navigate the immigration court system is cruel and unethical and will leave them at grave and unnecessary risk for trafficking and other forms of exploitation.

Statement “America’s moms want a U.S. Secretary of Education with an unshakable commitment to protect all students and set them up to succeed by making our schools stronger and more effective. Business leaders want that too, because our economy depends on having a well-educated workforce now and in the future. Linda McMahon, President Trump’s nominee to serve as U.S. Secretary of Education, has a very different agenda.

Statement “There are dozens of rock-solid reasons to refuse to confirm Robert F. Kennedy Jr. (RFK) as Secretary of Health and Human Services, and only one reason to confirm him: Because groveling to President Trump matters more to you than the health and wellbeing of your constituents.

Statement “It’s been 32 years since Congress passed the FMLA, guaranteeing about three in five of the country’s working people unpaid, job-protected leave when a new baby or child arrives, a serious medical condition strikes, or to care for a seriously ill family member. That law was designed as a first step in boosting working families, businesses, and our economy, and it’s done that. But in all the years since, Congress has failed the country by not taking the next step and passing a comprehensive paid family and medical leave program. That needs to change.
