The #FlintWaterCrisis epitomized what is actually a nation-wide crisis and Federal investment in water infrastructure is needed to truly address this burgeoning problem.

It is incredibly easy to buy a gun in the United states, even compared to countries like Russia, Israel, and China. We need #commonsense action to end gun violence.

President Trump’s budget would close Rochester’s Laboratory for Laser Energetics (LLE). LLE is an essential component of the @DOE, @NNSA, and the @ICF ‘s High Yield Campaign. We can’t afford to lose it!

Today, March 5th, was President Trump's deadline for #DACA. Six months later nothing's changed. As Ranking Member of the Rules Committee, I’ve tried to force a vote on this issue more than 20 times, but the Majority has not allowed a single vote. We can't afford to wait!

What do Oscar-winning movies Dunkirk, Call Me By Your Name, Phantom Thread, and I, Tonya all have in common? They were made with Kodak film produced in Rochester! Kodak is just one example of the role our local companies play nationally.

Despite all the other important issues facing our country, Republicans in Washington are spending yet another week attacking environmental protections. It’s about time they got their #priorities in order.

Due to our efforts and the success I’ve had in creating this opportunity and bringing it to Rochester, our community is now at the very center of world-wide efforts to harness the power of photonics, which will drive technology, daily life, and our economy for decades to come.

Let there be light! I was proud to see the progress being made at the Test, Assembly and Packaging facility today. We are doing something that is challenging: we’re working together to build a manufacturing institute that is both transformational and built to last.

The winter storm is continuing across our region, canceling many activities and making travel difficult. More than a foot of snow has already fallen but the number of power outages in the county appear to have stabilized. Please stay safe out there! #ROC

This situation endangers our national security. It’s time for Jared Kushner to go.

No individual with such extensive, previously undisclosed foreign contacts and dealings should be allowed anywhere near top-secret information.

One lead would lead to another after conversations with archivists, historical societies, antique dealers, and railway officials. Now, this clock from the early 1900’s has been fully restored and is back in working order.

Back in August, I announced that my office had located the Master Clock from Rochester’s 1914 New York Central Station. It was a remarkable discovery. on.rocne.ws/2xOY8zm #ROC

Do you enjoy a 40-hour work week, sick leave and vacation days, and guaranteed safe working conditions? Then you have unions to thank! I proudly support American workers and their right to organize as #SCOTUS considers #JanusvAFSCME.
