Today, the Foreign Affairs Committee majority voted to hold Secretary of State Antony Blinken in contempt of Congress. My remarks today are a metaphor for how I feel about our Congress. America deserves an apology. We just have to do better.

@UPS So I just reintroduced the #PorchPirates Act in the 118th Congress with 21 bipartisan original cosponsors. It applies the same federal penalties currently in place for the theft of USPS mail to the theft of commercial packages from private carriers such as Amazon, FedEx, and UPS.

@UPS Porch Pirates pillage millions of packages every year, and if delivered by private carriers, we have little recourse. It's an increasingly dangerous crime as more Americans, especially our seniors, rely on delivery services for vital necessities such as medicine and groceries!

I recently went on the job with @UPS to learn how their drivers help keep our economy moving and to chat about a crime that has impacted one in five Americans. Let's talk about Porch Piracy. (🧵👇 )

Mr. Prime Minister, seal the deal. An agreement is within reach. Make the courageous decision to bring the hostages home now!

My guest today is @leatcorinne, cousin of Omer Shem Tov, who’s been held hostage by Hamas for 292 days. I spoke with Leat about Omer's capture on Oct 7th and a clear message we wish to share with Netanyahu: Bring the hostages home now!

As an unwavering supporter of the Jewish State of Israel and critic of PM Netanyahu, I am attending today’s address with the hope a ceasefire agreement is within reach that will release all hostages, including 8 Americans, and end the horrific bloodshed.

Today's ruling is a win for liberty and a reminder that the fight to ensure women remain free to make their own healthcare decisions is ongoing. Future cases seeking to assert government control over Americans' bodies can't change the truth: Mifepristone is safe and effective.
Mifepristone was safe and effective when the FDA approved it two decades ago, and remains so 5 million patients later. I'm joining an amicus brief to stay the Texas decision, prevent further politicization of medicine, and ensure Americans’ freedom to access the care they need.

You're amazing, Linda! What an honor to team up with you and successfully amend the FAA Reauthorization Act of 2024 to make air travel more safe, inclusive, and accessible.

Political weaponization of antisemitism is dangerous. Time for Congress to meet the moment & pass comprehensive legislation to address the scourge of antisemitism on campus & beyond. @SpeakerJohnson: take up the Countering Antisemitism Act immediately.

I'm with @BettyMcCollum04! There has never been a more important time to protect clean water for future generations, so I voted no on legislation that would green light risky foreign sulfide-ore copper mining in Minnesota's #BWCA watershed.
The science shows sulfide-ore copper mining pollution would harm the pristine waters of the BWCAW. A bill up in the House today would undo all of the progress we've made to #SaveTheseWaters. I spoke out against it because future generations deserve to experience this place.

Mr. Speaker: Bring the supplemental bill to the floor on Monday evening. No more excuses. No more stonewalling. No more nonsense.

The Iranian Regime appears to have made a grave miscalculation, the gravity of which won’t be known for hours. As Ranking Member of the Foreign Affairs Subcommittee on the Middle East, I am focused on the defense of our ally, Israel, and the safety of Americans in the region.

President Biden: “Our support for Israel’s security is ironclad. The United States will stand with the people of Israel and support their defense against these threats from Iran.”. Ironclad.

Praying for the speedy recovery of the Hennepin County Deputies who were shot today, and thinking of all the families of law enforcement officers who sacrifice so much for all of us.
