.AFSCME knows how important it is that America has a strong caregiving work force. I'm glad to have their support for the Long-Term Care Workforce Support Act.

I won't take a backseat while child labor laws are being rolled back across America. We need to pass my Child Labor Act to ensure we hold companies violating child labor laws accountable and have proper federal oversight of their working conditions.

It's time to tackle greedflation.

Our Nation’s caregiving crisis is exacerbated because care professionals are unvalued and under resourced. I'm thankful the National Alliance for Direct Support Professionals is supporting the Long-Term Care Workforce Support Act to fix that.

Establishing children's savings accounts will help the next generation build the head start they need in life. We've seen it work in states, and my 401Kids plan would establish it at a national level.

Caregivers work long hours for too little pay, and it causes many to leave their careers. I'm thankful to SEIU for supporting the Long-Term Care Workforce Support Act so we can ensure that care jobs are good jobs.

It's good to hear that U.S. Department of Transportation is taking action to protect airline customers from junk fees. American consumers shouldn't be shocked at checkout, and these rules will help ensure prices are more transparent and accurately reflect what you'll pay.

Huge news: the FEND Off Fentanyl Act - a bill to crack down on criminals in China and Mexico who produce & traffic fentanyl - is law. I'm proud to stand with law enforcement and families of fentanyl victims to push for this law to combat PA's fentanyl crisis.

Let's be clear - we shouldn’t give our adversaries access to technology critical to our national security.

With the overwhelmingly bipartisan vote in the Senate tonight, Congress has finally passed a national security funding bill that provides support to Ukraine and Israel and much-needed humanitarian aid to Gaza. My full statement ⬇️

The Domestic Workers know how important it is to invest in our Nation's  caregivers. I'm grateful to have their support for the Long-Term Care Workforce Support Act.

Nursing home residents expect and deserve high quality care that prioritizes health, safety, and human dignity. This new rule will establish staffing minimums to help ensure that all residents get the care they need and deserve.

The higher prices you're paying at the grocery store are helping corporations rake in profits to record levels. That's wrong, and it's why I'm fighting to hold price gougers accountable.

This evening, I'm wishing a happy and blessed Passover to all those celebrating in Pennsylvania and around the world. Chag Sameach!

I'm appalled by the antisemitic message graffitied outside a Jewish family's home in the North Shore. This is not what Pittsburgh stands for, and it's on all of us to stand up and call out hate wherever we see it.

Greedflation is stretching working families’ budgets, and I won't stop fighting until we hold price gougers accountable.

#EarthDay is a time to recognize the importance of protecting our environment and natural resources, and in Pennsylvania, our Constitution charges us to make sure we preserve them for future generations.

Senator David Pryor dedicated his career to protecting seniors, from his relentless nursing home oversight to playing a critical role to establish the House Committee on Aging. My condolences to his son and my friend, Senator Mark Pryor, and the entire Pryor family.

After 7 long months, the House finally approved Ukraine aid, which will include ammunitions made in Scranton.
 
This aid is vital for democracy and good for PA jobs. It's shameful that some Members, including 3 from PA, did not support this funding today.

Workers around the country are standing up and making their voices heard. This is a huge win for workers everywhere.
