Rep. Summer Lee

I just introduced articles of impeachment against Pam Bondi. It's time we hold powerful people accountable when they break the law, no matter their title, their political party, or how rich they are. Thank you to the constitutional experts at @FSFP for drafting these with us.

Super PACs have allowed corporations and billionaires to take hold of our democracy. That's why we have an affordability crisis impacting us from housing to healthcare to childcare. If we want to lower costs, we have to get money out of politics.

This May Day, I'm thinking of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette workers who have once again suffered betrayal after enduring years of illegal union-busting.

Tap water is a public good that everyone should be able to trust. @pgh2o is doing the work to reinforce that trust through investments, transparency & accountability. Proud to help bring federal resources home to support this effort so no one is left questioning the safety of their tap.

The Venetoulis Institute for Local Journalism has begun its ownership of the @PittsburghPG by cutting at least 40% of staff, and 80% of former strikers. It is sad, vindictive, and does not bode well for what we’ve fought and hoped for, including the success of the PG.

With food costs at an all-time high, the Republican Farm bill does nothing to restore the billions they cut from SNAP last summer in the reconciliation package. Working people are going hungry at their hands. This bill would only make it worse. Absolutely shameful.

Republicans and their extremist Supreme Court don’t want Black people to have the right to vote or be represented. This concerted power grab is dismantling democracy as we know it. We have to pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act immediately.

Trump promised to lower costs on day one. Instead, families are paying more for everything across the board. Proud to join @USProgressives to launch the New Affordability Agenda that includes my bill to abolish Super PACs. It’s time our democracy works for working people.

Today’s roundtable was a reminder of the immeasurable courage of the survivors of Epstein's abuse and the need to reform our broken systems. I’m grateful to the survivors and advocates for sharing their experiences and to @RepRoKhanna for convening us. We will continue to pursue justice for women like Virginia Giuffre and anyone who has endured abuse, exploitation, or coercion. Whether they’re a prince or a president, anyone associated with these heinous crimes is not above accountability.

Trump and his admin love to claim that they're Making America Healthy Again, but actions speak louder than words. Time and again, they've rolled back environmental regulations, funding, and projects that protect public health & the environment. The record is clear: he's failing all of us.

We have a healthcare system that prioritizes profit over people's lives. It's past time to pass Medicare for All so people aren't going bankrupt for basic care.

Great celebrating our beautiful Steel City under the lights of the @NFL draft last night. Western PA showed up!

UAmErica first?

The health care workers who keep our country healthy and care for our loved ones every single day deserve more than our gratitude. Proud to reintroduce the Hazard Pay for Health Care Heroes Act with @SenMarkey and @RepRoKhanna to give them the protections, support, and pay that they deserve and that truly reflects the risk they take and the lives they save.

The Trump administration has spent the past year handing polluters free passes while families in western Pennsylvania suffer from some of the worst air quality in the nation, face rising cancer rates, and watch their neighborhoods flood year after year. This Earth Day and every day, I'm working with both the House and Senate Environmental Justice Caucuses to hold these bad actors accountable and fight for the environmental justice we all deserve

Moshannon should be shut down. This hunger strike demonstrates what we already knew: without real oversight, the abuse & neglect will continue. I plan to go back to Moshannon to do my job, get some accountability, & push for its closure once & for all. wjactv.com/news/local/nea…

Want politicians who are accountable to people not corporations? Don't we all. I have a solution that will get rid of the influence of money in our democracy.

In the wealthiest nation on earth, we can afford to give everyone affordable housing, reliable healthcare, good jobs, & childcare. But how? By taxing the rich and getting big money out of politics. That's the Working Families Guarantee: wfpus.org/guarantee
