3/3 those who are not reading what America is saying, which is that democracy, for them, is a crucial and irreplaceable value.
2/3 rights. No one will be able to trample on the rights of Americans. No one will be able to make a mockery of what the government is supposed to do. As a Member of Congress, I want to join those who are prepared to push against any outrageous proposals that may come forward by
1/3 Americans stood up for the truth and the potency of the vote and the people's voice. And for that reason, no matter who may ultimately be in leadership in a very close balance of power, no one will be able to undermine democracy. No one will be able to trample on voting
We are grateful that Dusty Baker, with all his achievements and milestones agreed to be the manager of the Astros and now has a most deserving win as coach of the 2022 World Series.
In tribute to all these historic achievements, I will introduce a resolution to honor the 2022 World Series champions—the Houston Astros Manager Dusty Baker, and all of the team's outstanding players. Go Astros!”
What about those Astros making history by becoming a two-time World Series Champion of Major League Baseball in six years. Thanks to Jeremy Peña the youngest MVP player of any World Series.
I am sick and tired of the scourge of anti-Semitism and troubled by the evidence of a blatant rising tide of hate.
If we are silent, it will continue to escalate. Regardless of celebrity or status—anti-Semitism is unacceptable, deadly, and should not be tolerated. Hate is a terrible disease. Hate destroys lives, and it destroys communities.
Stand with me in standing up against hate of all kinds. America’s values are grounded on the humanity of all of us and the equality of all of us. America is only at her best when her people are at their best. Enough is Enough!
Happy to join Commissioner Adrian Garcia for opening of the new Smart Pod mental health service center in north east Harris County. Thank you to @HarrisCoPct2, Catholic Charities, Baylor College of Medicine and the Harris Center for working together to make this possible. https://t.co/ALN0mz07Am
Speaker Pelosi, your untiring service to the nation deserves respect, admiration, compassion, and love from the American people. You have my utmost respect for your dedication and hard work on behalf of our nation.
Your untiring service to the country is to be respected and admired by your colleagues; your commitment has garnered the confidence of our fellow Americans in our nation’s future.
It is shameful that this act may have been linked to a disagreement among Americans over government policies, and the direction of our democracy, which may have caused this intruder to seek to attack you and your husband. Our families are sacred.
They do not sign up for public service, but we thank them for joining us in this duty. Families should be safe and kept free of danger from violent attacks. Why are we experiencing these attacks and violence?
The nation needs answers to this question. Local and Federal law enforcement must collaborate to address the rise in societal violence that may impact public officials and their families.
After a review—what is needed should be provided--it cannot be solely the members' and elected officials' responsibility to provide for their families security. Speaker Pelosi, all of us are standing with you and your family.
Again, I know the nation thanks you for your years of unselfish service. Be assured that you and your family are in our thoughts and prayers for your safety. May God bless you in your work, and may God keep you and your family.
Fear, outrage, and absolutely appalling was my reaction to the news of the senseless, vicious, and violent attack on the beloved husband of Nancy Pelosi.
I wish him a speedy, strong, and complete recovery. Speaker Pelosi, your untiring service to the nation deserves respect, admiration, compassion, and love from the American people.
Again, I know the nation thanks you for your years of unselfish service. Be assured that you and your family are in our thoughts and prayers for your safety. May God bless you in your work, and may God keep you and your family.

I visited a school tonight to speak with my constituents, but how outrageous is it that today we faced another school shooting with two people dead and many injured!
Because a 19-year-old with a gun and multiple rounds of ammunition wanted to cause injury and death to others and could do so. It is ridiculous that we have not been able to raise the age for those who could have military-style weapons.
The American People are ready to ban assault weapons and raise the age for weapons of war to 21. Democrats are ready to save lives. Congress needs to move immediately to save more lives.
How many more lives will be lost? How many more children will die? How many more students will have to be lost because this country has 440 million guns, which is more than the number of people in the United States. I am ready to put people over politics. Enough is enough.
