Yesterday I joined @RepRobinKelly and @HouseDemocrats in wearing orange to honor every life cut short by gun violence. Buffalo knows this pain. On May 14, 2022, a racist domestic terrorist came to our community and stole 10 souls from us at Tops Friendly Markets. That day

The Social Security Trustees Report is out, and the news is bad. Trump's failed policies pushed insolvency to 2032. If Congress does nothing, Western New York seniors lose $500/month in benefits they earned. Congressional Republicans want to raise the retirement age and

Trump and Congressional Republicans promised lower costs, lower inflation, no more forever wars. Instead inflation is at a 3-year high, families paying more for groceries, gas, and rent, and American forces entangled in another endless conflict in the Middle East. The promises

House Republicans handed ICE a $70 billion blank check, while WNYers are paying $4+ a gallon for gas and millions of Americans are losing their health coverage. I voted no. New York families deserve better.

On Sunday, Trump told NBC the 2020 election was rigged. Then said last week's California primary was rigged. When pressed for evidence on either claim, he said: "All I have to do is look." Welker said that's not evidence. He unclipped his mic and walked out. This is the pattern

Buffalo has always shown up for people in need, no matter where they are. @JRCHCBuffaloNY is sending $2.5 million in supplies to the frontlines of the Ebola outbreak in Congo. Their clinic in Goma is still open, staffed, and serving people through the crisis. That's the City of
