What happened to my constituent Sarafinah is horrifying, and it's happening across the country. This isn't about our safety. It's about meeting Trump's ICE quotas — and they're violating our privacy and terrorizing our neighbors to do it. (1/2)

I’m so relieved Sarafinah is finally getting the care she needs and this nightmare is behind her, but so many families are still going through it. As long as this cruel administration continues its campaign of terror in our communities, we have to keep standing up for our neighbors. bit.ly/4x6xAao

Trump isn't just ignoring the fact that health care isn't affordable — he takes every opportunity to make it worse. This time, he's targeting tens of millions of seniors and disabled Americans. bit.ly/4fy5gIm

An amazing visit with Dr. Kirstie Matzek and her team at Shawnee Christian Healthcare, where they've been serving patients for decades. You can really feel their pride and purpose as you walk through the halls. Keep an eye out for their mobile clinic in an area near you!
Thank you to Anchorage-Middletown Fire & EMS for a great visit, and for your service and dedication! I'll always work to make sure Congress does all it can to support our first responders.
Medical care in ICE detention is not negotiable. We're doing everything we can to get Sarafinah released and make sure she gets the care she needs. bit.ly/4vWHzOy

I agree with Governor Beshear. And I’ve said this from the start: in any job in America, you have to tell your boss why you’re not coming to work and when you’ll be back — the people of Kentucky are owed the same transparency from our Senator.
In a letter to Mitch McConnell's office, Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear (D) criticized the limited communication between the Republican senator and constituents after he suffered a fall. “Kentuckians are just asking Senator McConnell to be honest,” Beshear wrote. https://wapo.st/4vQ53oz
Great turnout at the Beargrass Creek Cleanup this weekend! Our water is one of Kentucky's most vital resources, and it's on all of us to protect it. Thanks as always to Kentucky Waterways Alliance for all you do for our commonwealth.
It was good to see so many of our neighbors out for the ACE Project Peaceful Block Party this weekend. Too many in Louisville have been affected by gun violence, and I'm so inspired by Rose Smith's strength, vision, and commitment to bringing our community together.
I am heading into Campbell County Detention Center in Kentucky with @repgwenmoore.bsky.social @repmcgarvey.bsky.social to provide oversight of the facility consistent with congressional oversight authority and duties.
I’m at the Campbell County Detention Center in Kentucky today with @ramirez.house.gov and @repmcgarvey.bsky.social conducting congressional oversight following reports of inhumane conditions and inadequate medical care of people in custody.
Trump said he was going to lower costs on day one. He's done the exact opposite. Rent, groceries, gas, utilities, child care, elder care — it's all too expensive. And they're not doing anything about it.
Republicans made tax cuts for the rich permanent. But they let "No Tax on Tips" expire after 3 years. We all love Waffle House, but Republicans in Congress clearly love their wealthy donors more.
Today, we once again voted to end the war with Iran. The president's incompetence has made everything more expensive, less safe, and less stable. No matter how many times he declares victory, it never seems to be over. It's long past time to end it.
There's nothing Republicans won't do for Trump.
Republicans have now had three chances to make a budget that actually helps working families. Here's what we got instead: 1. Tax breaks for the rich and massive health care cuts 2. $70 billion for ICE 3. $95 billion for Trump's war with Iran
Trump promised no more foreign wars and lower costs on day one. He lied. These aren't just broken promises — they're deliberate policy choices made by this lapdog Republican Congress.
Why can Republicans in Congress always find money for billionaires and wars, but never for the rest of us? Because that's who they serve.
I introduced an amendment to block taxpayer funding for Trump's ballroom. Every Republican voted against it.
Today we celebrated 8 years of UP for Women and Children — the sole day shelter exclusively serving women experiencing homelessness and their children here in Louisville. Words can't express how grateful we are for all they do.
All of Donald Trump's schemes are different, but the pattern is the same. He turns public office into private profit every chance he gets.
Every Republican just voted against my amendment to block taxpayer money for Trump's ballroom.
When Republicans in Congress show you who they are, believe them. Their budget does nothing to make your life easier, because all they do here is Donald Trump's bidding.
@repmcgarvey.bsky.social introduced an amendment to rescind funding for Trump's ballroom. But Republicans would rather triple down on their America Last agenda and spend taxpayer dollars on Trump's vanity projects instead of lowering costs.
Republicans will use every word in the book to avoid admitting their budget puts our country into more debt. But it does — and doesn't do anything to make gas, groceries, or going to the doctor cheaper.
In less than a week, ICE agents shot and killed two people. There's been no accountability, no investigation, and no justice. And now Trump is going out of his way to enable them.

It's always a good week when @steelworkers.bsky.social are in DC — including some of our brothers and sisters from USW District 8! Steelworkers power this country, and we're standing together in the fight together to protect every worker's health and safety.
In less than a week, ICE has shot and killed two people. The Trump administration will try to explain this away, but there is no excuse. ICE continues to terrorize our communities and kill people with no accountability — and this administration goes above and beyond to enable it. (1/3)

The Camp Ground Rd data center is going to increase the demand on our power grid. We cannot allow out-of-state companies to continue exploiting our people and resources for their bottom line. Louisvillians shouldn’t be the ones to pay for it.
