Thank you @miamiherald for helping expose the lies of Trump’s cruelty, where overcrowded conditions, foul food and even torture cages await our friends and neighbors after ICE sends them to internment camps.
I’m fighting to end this horrific waste of your tax dollars.

Gas prices keep rising, and how do House Republicans respond?
They flee Washington.
I’m in DC fighting alongside Democrats to tackle AI and lower gas, food and health costs.
Remember that on Election Day.

Proud to carry on our tradition to gather top Black leaders for the Taste of South Florida event, which the late Rep. Hastings and I started to kick off the @CBCFInc Annual Leadership Conference. Thanks to Leader @hakeemjeffries, Assistant Leader @JoeNeguse, Reps. @IlhanMN, @gabeamo, former Rep. @KendrickMeek and others for coming!

Florida Republicans embraced Marshall Rawson — an extremist who marched with neo-Nazis, called for killing gay people and condoned slavery — to be a state lawmaker.
The GOP must condemn the hate he spreads, cut off support, and reject the bigotry his candidacy represents.

Republicans prioritize massive tax cuts for billionaires and corporations, and balloon our national debt.
Democrats stress pay-as-you-go policies and always fight to ensure Social Security and Medicare stay fiscally sound.

Democrats work 24/7 to make housing more affordable – like my committee amendment that pushes for rent vouchers to be used for security deposits.
We need policies to make life affordable and end Trumpflation.

While Republicans hold Trump-palooza to stroke one corrupt man’s ego, Democrats are organizing and sharing our plans to lower housing, healthcare, food and gas costs.
It’s a clear difference in priorities.

Ashley Moody and James Uthmeier diverted $10M in taxpayer funds for kids’ healthcare into illegal, dark money political ads.
They must be held to account for this thievery, in court and at the ballot box.

The Hope Florida grand jury report has angered Floridians, but you would never know it from Attorney General James Uthmeier’s arrogant stonewalling.
"The Republicans have turned this convention into a 'Trumpalooza," says Rep. Wasserman Schultz on the upcoming GOP midterm convention
Moody and Uthmeier allowed taxpayer money for children’s medical care to be stolen, laundered and used for political gain.
Both must be held accountable by the law, and at the ballot box in November.

Even after numerous measles outbreaks in our Broward County Schools, DeSantis wants to make it easier to opt out of vaccines.
This decision will harm children and get people killed, and it’s all entirely preventable.

Florida to end school vaccine requirements for chicken pox, Hep B
The Grand Jury report is clear: Moody, DeSantis, and Uthmeier robbed funds meant to give kids healthcare and sent it to the Florida Republican Party and their own PACs. They stole taxpayer dollars for political gain. It’s blatant corruption.
Everyone involved must be criminally prosecuted for this cruel greed. Charges must be filed without delay.
