Team Boyle was out in full strength for this year's National Night Out, which connects law enforcement and first responders with their communities. Every day, I'm thankful for the dedicated men and women who keep our communities safe.

There is nothing partisan about funding health research, but the Trump administration is trying to stop it. I'm fighting back. These grants help our most vulnerable and bring good-paying jobs to Philadelphia. That's exactly what the federal government should be doing.
America is strongest when people bring the best of their heritage into our shared national life. It was an honor to speak at the Order of AHEPA's Grand Banquet and celebrate the rich history and contributions of Greek Americans to Philadelphia and the United States.
Americans despise Trump’s economy — and it’s entirely his fault. He passed trillions in tax breaks for the ultra-rich while cutting health care for millions of Americans. Working families know Trump doesn't care one bit about them.
Americans are right to be fed up with Trump's economy. Prices are out of control, and taxpayer dollars are being wasted on a war in Iran and tax breaks for billionaires. Republicans in Washington have enabled this disaster every step of the way.
Every day there is a new headline about how Trump and Republicans in Washington are making life more expensive for Americans. They can always find the money to pass tax giveaways for billionaires, but never to give the American people health care.
Republicans refused to extend Affordable Care Act tax credits and cut health care for millions of Americans — all so billionaires could get more tax giveaways. Now, ERs are filling up, Americans are deferring care, and our hospitals are being strained. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/30/b...
After Obamacare Cuts, Hospitals Are Treating More Uninsured Patients
More people who lost coverage after congressional Republicans ended enhanced federal subsidies are now seeking care in emergency rooms and unable to pay bills.

For over half a century, Medicare and Medicaid have ensured that Americans can live with dignity and get the care they need. While some in Washington want to take that dignity away, I will keep leading the fight to protect health care for every American.
Americans continue to pay the price for Trump's disastrous Iran war. Prices are too high and now our economic growth is slowing. Donald Trump continues to ignore the warning signs - because he simply doesn't care if he hurts working families. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/30/b...
U.S. GDP Growth Slowed in Second Quarter of 2026
Gross domestic product expanded at a 1.5 percent annual rate over the past three months, as war in the Middle East shook energy prices and supply chains.

Americans have paid over $3,500 more due to inflation since President Trump took office, but he obviously doesn't care. Instead, he's spending your tax money on his forever war in Iran and giveaways to billionaires.
"Donald Trump admitted exactly where his priorities lie: He says we can't afford Medicaid or Medicare because 'we're fighting wars.'" Ranking Member @congressmanboyle.bsky.social on today's PCE inflation data:
President Trump promised to lower costs on "day one," but American families have already paid $3,500 more due to inflation since he took office. If he cared at all about working people, he would end his tariff taxes and his reckless Iran war.
"American families need help, but all President Trump has done is raise their costs." Ranking Member @congressmanboyle.bsky.social on the Fed's interest rate decision today:
Gas prices are out of control. My Gas Price Relief Act suspends the federal gas tax when the national average is over $4 a gallon — and makes up lost funding to the Highway Trust Fund by redirecting giveaways for oil and gas companies. It's a commonsense way to help Americans.
President Trump has taken health care from millions of Americans and jacked up prices with his failed war in Iran and tariff taxes. His record on the economy has been an abject failure. @meidastouch.com
When you're elected president, you are sworn to serve every American — not just the ones who agree with you. Cutting federal funding based on how a state voted is the DC swamp at its worst.
Breaking News: Federal officials acknowledged in court documents that they canceled grants to states that didn’t vote for President Trump in 2024. nyti.ms/4gRd5Kb
Congress should fight for working families, not Trump's donors. But Republicans in Washington would rather do whatever Trump wants than stand up for the American people. It’s deeply unhealthy for our country.
Trump is hell-bent on raising your prices. His new tariffs are a nationwide sales tax that will only serve to make life harder for Americans just trying to make ends meet.
Breaking: The U.S. will impose tariffs ranging from 10% to 12.5% on its major trading partners in a new set of duties designed to withstand legal scrutiny. wsj.visitlink.me/dDswge
Honored to be recognized by First Focus Campaign for Children as a Champion for Children. America is at its best when we're making life better for our children. That's why I've championed bills like the Hands Off Medicaid and SNAP Act, which protect our nation's most vulnerable.
President Trump is cartoonishly out of touch with Americans. Don't just take my word for it. Trump literally said he "loves the inflation" and "I don't think about Americans' financial situation."
Trump's Iran war is the most unpopular war in American history. Trump's recklessness has cost American lives and driven up prices at home. And after many months, he still doesn't have a strategy or exit plan. I once again voted to end this war.
If you ask anyone what Congress should be doing with a new budget, they'd say bringing down the cost of living. This Republican budget doesn't even try. It just spends even more money on Trump's Iran war. I'll keep leading the fight to stop this America Last budget.
"Donald Trump promised to make life more affordable, but his failed policies have only driven costs higher for working families." Ranking Member @congressmanboyle.bsky.social on House passage of Republicans' America Last budget:
The fact is, American families have already paid $3,100 due to inflation under Trump and Republicans. But instead of helping working families, Republicans' latest budget wastes tens of billions of your tax dollars on Trump's disastrous Iran war.
Congress should be focused on lowering costs for health care, groceries, housing, and other needs. But instead, Republicans want to spend tens of billions of dollars on Trump's new forever war in Iran. I'm proud to lead the fight against this America Last agenda.
Republicans are spending billions of your tax dollars on Trump's Iran war and trillions on tax breaks for billionaires. But they won't spend a dime to make your life easier. Their America Last budget does nothing to lower costs. I'm a HELL NO.
While gas prices skyrocket due to his endless war in Iran, Trump is imposing even more tariff taxes that Americans will be forced to pay. Trump will stop at nothing to raise costs on American families. abcnews.com/Politics/tru...

Philadelphia knows how to throw a party — the World Cup, America's 250th, and countless other events this year proved that to the world. We should keep setting our sights high and bring the World Cup back as soon as possible.
As Trump demands more taxpayer money for his disastrous war in Iran, gas prices are rising again. Americans are sick and tired of paying for Trump’s new forever war.
NEW YORK (AP) — US gas prices hit an average of $4 a gallon again as US and Iran launch attacks.
Today, we celebrate the place where America began — it's National Pennsylvania Day! It’s a great honor to work every day for my hometown of Philadelphia. And importantly, it's way better than Delaware Day. Sorry @mcbride.house.gov.

Trump and Republicans want you to think America can't afford to lower costs or provide health care for working families. But they always seem to find money to fund endless wars. I won't stop fighting Republicans' America Last budget.
"Donald Trump and Republicans keep telling us America cannot afford to lower the cost of health care, food, housing, or energy for working families." Ranking Member @congressmanboyle.bsky.social on Budget Republicans advancing their "America Last" budget:
I moved to protect the health care of millions of Americans from Trump's Big Ugly Law, which cut health care so billionaires can enjoy historic tax breaks. But Republicans are opposing it because they are putting America Last.
