To the House Republicans: If you’re prioritizing the sale of AR-15s over the lives of our kids, If you’re putting the demands of the gun lobby over the safety of our families, Then what are you doing in Congress?

Once again, Speaker McCarthy is choosing Wall Street over Main Street Americans. There's an urgent & simple solution to prevent default: an unconditional vote on the debt ceiling – a vote Republicans & Democrats took 3x under Trump. Stop the political theater and get to work.

New: House Minority Whip Katherine Clark has invited Jack Lew to talk to Dems tomorrow morning about avoiding default Lew was OMB head during Obama-Boehner debt ceiling showdown in 2011; WH chief of staff and then, of course, Treasury Secretary

Every senior, every veteran, and every family should be disgusted by the House Republicans’s reckless vote today. The Default on America Act takes food off kitchen tables, pulls kids out of child care, evicts families from their homes, and tears health benefits from vets.

All 213 House Democrats have signed the discharge petition. 5 Republicans could end this right now. What’s it going to be: MAGA politics or everyday Americans?

Clark: And now you're sending us home with no resolution. That's the plan, to default, to run out the clock. Well, I have some good news for you. 213, every single member of the democratic caucus has signed the discharge petition.

Last Congress, House Democrats passed the #WomensHealthProtectionAct not once but twice. This week, we introduced it again as a discharge petition. So, House Republicans, are you on the side of freedom or extremism? youtube.com/watch?v=dqYEIg…

Dems are marking year anniversary of Dobbs decision and are calling on more Rs to sign the discharge petition on the Women’s Health Protection Act “It's just eight Republicans that span between us and bringing back abortion rights in this country,” says Rep. Chu

44% of doctors and 6 in 10 practicing in states where abortion is banned or limited say Dobbs harmed their decision-making autonomy. And 36% “say their ability to practice within the standard of care has become worse.” washingtonpost.com/opinions/2023/…

These Barbies (and Kens) are fighting every day to keep women and working families front and center in Washington.

One year ago, our Congressional delegation’s arrival in Taiwan sent an unequivocal message: America stands with Taiwan as it defends itself and its freedom.   Solidarity with Taiwan is as important as ever, as our world faces a stark choice between democracy and autocracy.

.Katherine Clark: “If we want to preserve government by the people, if we want to defend all that Congressman Lewis fought for — we need to take action. Now.”

It was a privilege to welcome Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський to the Capitol yesterday and reaffirm House Democrats’ unwavering support for the Ukrainian people and their fight for freedom. We will never back down in the fight to preserve democracy and security — at home and around the world.

MAGA extremists are hell-bent on undermining the American people with devastating cuts and a disastrous shutdown. And the nominal Speaker of the House is letting it happen. My op-ed for MSNBC: msnbc.com/opinion/msnbc-…

We want to make our own health care decisions — in consultation with our families, our doctors, and our faith — not with Jim Jordan.

I was humbled to join Congressman Jared Moskowitz and Parkland families on a tour of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School.   Like so many others, this community has suffered unimaginable pain in the wake of senseless gun violence.

Jennifer McClellan .Katherine Clark: “we don’t trust JD Vance to order donuts, we certainly don’t trust him to tell us when, if and how to have a family and children”

Democratic Whip Katherine Clark with a zinger about Republican VP nominee JD Vance’s ideas about child care: “We don’t trust JD Vance to order donuts. We certainly don’t trust him to take seriously lowering costs.”

Thank you, Vice President JD Vance Harris. For the joy. For the hope. For providing a vision for a future defined by opportunity and freedom for all. Our fight continues.

I never thought an American President would choose a Russian dictator over a democratic ally. Trump is rolling over to a tyrant. Putin violated a 2015 ceasefire and illegally invaded Ukraine, murdering thousands of innocent people.  Trump’s bowing to Russia is dangerous for
