Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi often reminded House members that our job title and description are the same: representative. Since 1987, Nancy Pelosi embodied that truth as a brilliant and accomplished representative for the people of San Francisco and for our nation.

Well, @OpenAI just banned @ChatGPT from giving medical advice. @Doctronic is built different: peer-reviewed clinical validation, a network of licensed physicians across all 50 states, and partnerships that let us keep expanding. We're not pulling back. We're moving forward.

House Democrats believe that in the richest country in the world, no one should go hungry. Trump clearly doesn't share that value.

Air traffic controllers have been working unpaid since Trump's shutdown began over a month ago. Now, the FAA is ordering a 10% reduction in flights coming to and from major airports. As a reminder: Republicans control the House, Senate, and White House. It doesn't have to be

Today in the Supreme Court, the governmentâs own attorney admitted that the American people will pay 30-80% of Trumpâs tariffs. These tariffs are an unlawful tax on working families. #tariffs #SupremeCourt #ieepa

Portlanders have shown the world what it means to stand up and protect their communityâwith decisiveness, innovation, and courage. Our elected leaders would do well to bring that same Portland spirit to our most entrenched problems.

Trump spent the weekend partying with billionaires at Mar-a-Lago. Today he's proudly announcing he won't follow a court order to provide 42 million Americans food assistance. He doesn't care about you. You deserve better. If you need food resources visit:

I saw with my own eyes four U.S. citizen children detained in a windowless cell, held captive by YOUR agents. Stop the lies.
Kristi Noem: "No American citizens have been arrested or detained. We focus on those who are here illegally. And anything you would hear or report that would be different than that is simply not true and false reporting."

Thank you, @GovTinaKotek, for supporting our communities in the face of Donald Trumpâs cruelty. No familyâin Oregon or anywhere in our countryâshould go hungry because Trump is playing politics.
