Gun violence has taken the lives of too many of our loved ones, neighbors, and friends. We cannot allow this to be normal, I will always fight for common sense gun safety reforms in Washington🎗️🧡 Together, we have the power to save lives and build a safer community. Grateful for our PA 05 community who showed up today!

On Gun Violence Awareness Day, Judiciary Democrats took testimony from experts about the significant reductions in gun violence that have occurred across the country as a result of Congressional funding and support for policies that prevent gun violence in our communities.🎗️🧡 I am particularly proud of collaborative efforts in Chester and Philadelphia that have reduced juvenile gun violence and shooting deaths. But the Trump Administration and Congressional Republicans are defunding these programs. We should not retreat from this success. We must enact common-sense gun safety laws to protect our children and communities.

ICE and CBP have terrorized communities across our nation. But the GOP has refused to reform those agencies, and instead is sending them $70 BILLION more, while hardworking Americans are struggling to put food on their tables.

The Senate has passed legislation to fund President Donald Trump’s immigration enforcement agencies, sending it to the House.

Americans have the right to expect that our government won't spy on them, especially for unlawful purposes. That’s why I introduced the Postal Data Privacy Act, legislation that requires law enforcement to obtain a court order to legally access certain postal information through the USPIS. Americans deserve to have their First and Fourth Amendments protected, and that includes their right to privacy when sending or receiving mail.

If Republicans are so concerned about fraud, waste and abuse, I suggest they take a look inside the White House.

Last night, the House passed a War Powers Resolution to rein in Donald Trump’s illegal war against Iran. This resolution directs the President to end military actions against Iran unless Congress authorizes it. I was proud to vote in favor of this resolution because I know how detrimental this poorly conceived and executed war has been for the American people.

If Republicans cared about enacting laws to help keep Americans safe, they would join Democrats in pushing for common-sense gun safety laws.
