The House just passed @RepBobbyRush's bill to outlaw the heinous act of lynching. While nothing can be done to bring back #EmmettTill & thousands of other victims, our long overdue vote sends a strong message that such bigotry has no place in our nation https://t.co/oRXVomR0k1

So sad to hear about the passing of Katherine Johnson, a trailblazing mathematician whose work powered our nation's early space missions.

The Trump admin's disastrous plan to gut one of our most effective environmental laws isn't a Democratic or Republican issue, it will effect ALL Americans. That's why @RepRooney (R-FL) and I are urging our House colleagues to oppose this dangerous plan: https://t.co/w2Cb1FPBIv
