The newest member of Texas' maternal mortality review committee is “the most visible face of a small but influential national anti-abortion medical community.”

As if our total abortion ban wasn’t harming enough Texans. Congress needs to restore reproductive rights nationwide.

ICYMI: Labor Caucus member Congressman Greg Casar led the charge to hold corporations accountable for illegal child labor in meat packing plants during last week's Farm Bill markup. But Republicans blocked the amendment on a party-line vote. x.com/RepCasar/statu…

It was great to welcome United Steelworkers International President David McCall to the Labor Caucus last week. Labor Caucus members are proud to partner with @Steelworkers as we fight for workplace safety, worker-centered trade policies, and workers' voice on the job.

I am completely outraged by the killing of civilians in Rafah. Today, President Biden should announce an end to all bomb shipments to Netanyahu.

On Memorial Day, we honor members of the military who never made it back to the home they died serving.

We can’t repay their debt but we can honor it — by supporting veterans and the families of fallen soldiers, and defending the democracy they fought for.

Texans are suffering from hotter & hotter summers.

If Congress doesn't tackle the climate crisis, simple joys — like outdoor shows in the summer — will become more and more dangerous in places like the Live Music Capital of the World.

Last night, as some U.S. children worked their graveyard shift at meat packing plants, House Republicans blocked a amendment that would hold giant corporations accountable for serious, repeated, or pervasive use of illegal child labor.

Casar: So in this farm bill, working families are taking a cut to the nutrition programs that feed them, farm workers are taking a hit, but the protections are going to the meat packers. Instead of us enforcing child labor laws and a minimum wage, they get a multimillion dollar

The farm bill, Casar said, “is such an important opportunity to reduce the power of those corporate price gougers, but instead, this Republican bill before us, rewards them.” (by Saul Elbein / The Hill)

Your bill shields big corporations from accountability when their pesticides give workers cancer. Any comment on that?

Imagine if we were debating a that:
✊🏽 Protected farm workers
🥬 Strengthened SNAP benefits
👩‍🌾 Supported small farmers & ranchers

Instead of a draft from extremist Republicans that:
❌ Fails farmers & workers
🤑 Protects corporate profits
👨‍👩‍👦 Leaves kids hungry

FACT CHECK: Glenn "GT" Thompson‘s bill CUTS future SNAP benefits by $30 billion dollars.

That's not my opinion. It's not 'rhetoric from the outside.' It's straight from the nonpartisan, impartial Congressional Budget Office.

I’ll relentlessly work with the Department of @Energy and Secretary Jennifer Granholm — and every part of the federal government — until we fix the Texas grid.

To save lives, to save money, and to save the planet.

Extremist Republicans are once again trying to cut SNAP benefits in the Farm Bill.

The same Republicans in Congress who are happy to give tax cuts to their billionaire buddies.

needs a Farm Bill focused on feeding families, not padding pockets.
