Happy 230th birthday to the oldest continuous committee in Congress! From health care to energy, from the internet to sports, from our air to our water—the U.S. House Energy and Commerce Committee has been at the forefront of developing landmark laws that impact the lives of all

Australia banned social media for kids 16 and under. Whether you think a ban is good or not, most people believe something has to be done to protect our kids. An update from Congress 👇🏻

Yesterday, Senate Republicans blocked legislation to lower health care prices for millions of Americans. Here in Massachusetts, 10,000+ people are set to lose their coverage altogether because the GOP refuses to act. https://t.co/jOzZX4TTai

We should be working together to foster innovation and protect Americans’ privacy and safety—not punishing states for trying to protect people from the harms of AI.  Someone should probably tell @POTUS that executive orders aren’t magic wands that suddenly erase laws on the

Healthcare tax credits are set to expire for millions of Americans, yet Senate Republicans just blocked efforts to extend them. 28,000 people in my district alone will see their health care costs rise if Republicans continue to sit on their hands. This is unacceptable. Congress

Costs are already too high for hardworking Americans — they should not have to shell out $1000 or $2000 a month MORE for health insurance because of Republicans’ failure to act. @HouseDemocrats have a simple and direct way to lower costs by extending the health care tax

The chamber also blocked a Republican bill to give Americans up to $1,500 to spend on health care instead of extending the subsidies.

Until there’s a bipartisan plan for regulating AI, states should be able to put protections in place. This only helps big tech corporations.

If Republicans don't extend ACA subsidies, people are going to die. Now, they’re trying to tie Americans' health care to abortion restrictions that kill women. It’s absolutely a non-starter. We won’t allow Republicans to use the lives of women as the political cost of extension.

Senate Republicans made it clear today that they do not care about your health care costs skyrocketing on January 1st. Â Democrats will continue to fight for the 24 million Americans counting on us.

In 2025, 24,000 people in our district received tax credits that lowered their monthly health insurance bill. There are 7 days left for Congress to save affordable healthcare, keeping families healthy and safe.

Senate Republicans promised a vote on the expiring premium tax credits that keep millions of Americans healthy and save families money -- but when it came down to it, they voted to let them expire. When the enhanced premium tax credits expire, they'll have no one to blame but

Two bills failed to secure the necessary 60 votes to break a filibuster and advance Thursday. Congress has no deal ahead of a Dec. 31 deadline to avoid premium hikes under Obamacare.

Protecting kids online is incredibly important. At a consumer protection markup today, I voiced concern that several bills up for debate stop states from doing more to keep kids and teens safe online.

In @EnergyCommerce, we're setting the record straight about the cause for rising utility rates. Trump is cancelling clean energy projects as AI and data centers spike demand. Despite promises of lower costs, Americans are now seeing 6-10% increases in utility costs.
