I just want to make a few things clear: The Holocaust happened. Hitler was a demonic figure. And instead of giving it a platform, our political leaders should be calling out and rejecting antisemitism wherever it hides. Silence is complicity.

I wrapped up another week in D.C.! This week, we attended to critical legislative business, including passing a resolution to protect our rail workers. My bill, the DOULA for VA Act, also passed the House! I'm headed back to Michigan and excited to get back to work on Monday.

Tonight, we celebrated the retirement of our dear friend and CBC second vice-chair Brenda Lawrence. She is a tireless advocate for the people of Michigan's 14th Congressional District, and an active member of our CBC family.

Women showed up at unprecedented rates and made their voices heard this election. Young women of color in particular mobilized to demonstrate our political power. Congress must now do our job and deliver for the women who elected us to office. thehill.com/opinion/congre…

Today the House PASSED the #RespectForMarriageAct. Passage of this bill is long overdue—to protect & respect the sanctity of same-sex & interracial marriages in this country. 🌈

Yes, Rep. Gwen Moore. The Child Tax Credit has indeed proven to give children more opportunities to succeed. Thank you for using your platform to elevate this critical tool which assists millions of working class families and their children. thehill.com/opinion/congre…

The U.S. Postal Service just announced that my friend and predecessor Congressman John Lewis will be honored on a new postage stamp next year! Let it always remind us to get in the #GoodTrouble that Congressman Lewis taught us.

Love is love. So thrilled to have attended the Respect for Marriage Act bill signing to celebrate historic legislation upholding marriage equality under federal law. This is a major victory for freedom, dignity, and equality.

.Brenda Lawrence is giving her farewell speech on the House floor: "For eight years, I have been given an amazing opportunity to serve and walk the halls of Congress, and I've enjoyed every minute of this journey. ... I am coming home."

Wishing a happy Hanukkah to everyone and their loved ones who celebrate in MI-14 and around the world!

Electric vehicles are the future. They also require thousands of microchips per single vehicle. America is making semiconductors again, not just to strengthen our supply chains. But to ensure the clean energy economy is made right here at home.
