Firing public health officials is so dangerous. I joined my colleagues in demanding that 750 CDC employees - people who keep our nation healthy and safe - be immediately reinstated. These mass firings are going to cost lives. …

The unconscionable Republican CR cut $1 billion in funding for D.C. – funds that have literally already been paid for by D.C. residents. So we introduced a bill tonight to ensure that D.C. receives the tax dollars it is owed. The Senate just passed it.
