This is a government takeover. Plain and simple. Elon Musk and DOGE should be nowhere near the CDC.
DOGE is something Trump and Elon made up to act as their undemocratic attack force. #FireElonMusk
Today, we honor the veterans in the #FightingFifth and beyond who have served our country.
I am deeply grateful for the countless sacrifices you and your families have made. During Military Family Appreciation Month, we must also recognize the loved ones who make that service possible.
The best way I can thank our veterans for their service is to fight for them in D.C. and back home.
I will never stop fighting for those who have fought so hard for us.
Was looking forward to impeaching Hegseth tonight, but instead we got a bunch of Republican procedural votes to try and avoid bringing the actual impeachment to the floor.
Republicans continue to avoid accountability at every turn. They might delay it but they can't escape it.
Secretary Pete Hegseth would rather focus on Signal chats than national security, on testosterone than peace, and loyalty to Trump than accountability.
Enough is enough. It's time he was held accountable. This impeachment vote can't come soon enough.
BREAKING: Republican Rep. Thomas Massie files articles of impeachment against Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, with a House vote expected as soon as this week. https://t.co/Zg6rhGJPKs
I’m looking forward to joining Central United Methodist Church for a special morning of worship and fellowship!
Let’s come together in faith, love, and unity as we move forward. I look forward to sharing this time with you!
See you Sunday!
From celebrating huge wins to trick-or-treating to fighting for better healthcare coverage, it was another busy week delivering for the #FightingFifth.
Catch up on it all in this week’s #NikemasNotes!
We can walk and chew gum at the same time. House Democrats don’t have to choose between affordability and accountability. They go hand in hand.
We don’t enrich ourselves while leaving working Americans behind. We work to build everyone up.
And that’s exactly what we’ll do in the new Congress.
Living with endometriosis since I was 14, I know firsthand the physical, financial, and systemic challenges that come with getting a diagnosis. For many patients, that diagnosis takes 7–10 years, often resulting in worsening pain and delays in care.
Expanding access to pelvic floor physical therapy and rehabilitation services can improve quality of life and reduce the long-term impact of delayed care.
That’s why my colleagues and I are calling on HHS to ensure pelvic floor rehabilitation receives equal coverage, whether needed after childbirth or because of endometriosis. Access to care should never depend on the reason someone needs it.

For the first time in history, more than 100 Democratic women have been elected to serve in the U.S. House of Representatives.
The millions of women who showed up at the polls voted for a better future for all women and girls.
Despite Republican attempts to silence us and take our rights, we will now have a coalition in Congress that is bigger and stronger than ever. We won’t let it go to waste.
The People have spoken, and here's the mandate:
- Hold the Trump Administration accountable
- End Trump's reckless war
- Stop Trump's tariff taxes
- Make your life more affordable.
Let's do it, #FightingFifth!
Last night, we made history! For the first time, two Black women will serve as governors: Keisha Lance Bottoms here in Georgia and Stacey Plaskett in the U.S. Virgin Islands.
Congratulations to both of our Governors-Elect! I’m especially proud to welcome my friend and co-conspirator for justice, Governor-Elect Keisha Lance Bottoms. I look forward to working alongside her to deliver real results for families in the #FightingFifth and across Georgia!
The power of the people is always greater than the people in power.
I joined the Wake Up With Dee Morning Show to discuss the importance of making your voice heard – no matter what issues are most important to you.

Under the Trump Administration, healthcare is increasingly out of reach. Deductibles have more than doubled, and premiums could rise another 15% in 2027 because of Republicans' refusal to extend necessary ACA tax credits.
House Democrats are fighting to make healthcare more accessible so no one has to wait until a preventable disease becomes life-threatening to get the care they need.
Take time to review your information, explore your options, and make sure you’re choosing the best health plan for you and your family.
