Energy & Commerce Democrats

Americans are sick of switching clocks twice a year. Today, I’m leading the fight to make Daylight Saving Time permanent!

Americans are facing a public health crisis created by the Trump Administration. Misinformation about lifesaving medicine and cuts to the CDC have been disastrous. We are living through the worst measles outbreak in decades, and now cyclospora is rapidly spreading. Funding for critical programs to track, prevent, and contain outbreaks must be restored.

American families are struggling more than ever to make ends meet. They can’t afford the gas they need to get to work, and they can’t afford the groceries they need to put food on the table for their families. Donald Trump’s solution: more war in Iran. theguardian.com/business/2026/…

The Trump Administration wants to repeal an Obama-era rule that requires airlines to display the total cost of your plane ticket. Trump and the GOP are here to protect profits, not you and your family.

My official response to Trump notifying Congress of more attacks against Iran: No.

Extreme politicians have kept the House in chaos for the past several weeks—they’ve held the congress hostage with political games and blocked any progress to address the squeeze on Americans’ pocketbooks. This week, I’m focused on legislation that makes a real difference for my neighbors back home and lowering grocery prices and electric bills.

NEW: Power companies requested more than $9 BILLION in rate increases in just the past three months alone – and there’s no end in sight. Americans can’t afford to keep paying the price for Republicans’ disastrous energy agenda.

The Trump Administration fired thousands of staff in 2025 then reportedly used funds meant to support timely drug & medical device reviews to cover costs from those layoffs. In new letter to GAO, Ranking Member @FrankPallone wants answers. democrats-energycommerce.house.gov/media/press-re…

Why are health coverage costs going up for millions of Americans? Because Republicans in Congress have slashed healthcare funding to pay for a tax cut for their billionaire donors. They're forcing families to foot the bill. axios.com/2026/07/08/oba…

Since Republicans let ACA tax credits expire in January, over 100,000 Californians have dropped their Affordable Care Act coverage. In some states, more than 20% of ACA enrollees have dropped. That risks public health and drives up costs for everyone when folks inevitably seek care in emergency rooms. interactives.ap.org/embeds/CLzNH/3…

Over 2 million Floridians have lost their healthcare due to Congress’ ACA and Medicaid cuts.  These cuts are having deadly consequences for constituents like the Blackman Family, and must be reversed. orlandosentinel.com/2026/07/13/kis…

Republicans cut Medicaid by $880 billion. It’s cruel. It’s evil. It’s against our mandate as public servants. I will not remain silent while Republicans continue to take away healthcare access. Medicaid saves lives. Period.

It's been just over a year since Republicans' Big Ugly Bill became law, and the damage is undeniable.   Millions of Americans have lost their health care.   Families are paying more, billionaires are paying less, and Republicans are calling it a win. It's unacceptable.   I'll never stop fighting for affordable health care and an economy that works for everyone. protectourcare.org/update-over-ei…

With Trump, there is no ‘over,’ only more — more war, more inflation, and more pain at the pump.

The American people are struggling… Yet they’re focused on changing the 14th amendment? Focus on Americans and what they need…start with their healthcare.

Imagine what we could accomplish if Republicans and Trump put Americans first instead of wasting billions on chosen wars and vanity projects. That money could strengthen our schools, lower costs, expand healthcare, and invest in our communities.

In the House, we keep hearing our Republicans colleagues talk about waste, fraud, and abuse. We all agree we should work to prevent those things. And we have long-established, effective systems in place to do it. But President Trump has dismantled the agencies and organizations designed to combat fraud, and he has pardoned at least 70 allies, donors, and others who have been convicted of fraud. These things don't add up.
